Meet Poppy 🐾
This sweet older Dachshund came into our care in absolutely heartbreaking condition — severely matted, soaked in urine and f***s, and clearly having endured far too much neglect. Despite it all, she has remained gentle, trusting, and full of love.
Poppy was groomed on May 28 by the amazing Jessica at Lavish Paws in Gasoline Alley, who gave her a much-needed bath and trim. She’s feeling so much better, and we are beyond grateful for the kindness and care Jessica and the team at Lavish Paws showed this little soul. If you’re in the area, please show Lavish Paws Grooming your support — they truly went above and beyond!
Poppy saw the vet today, and while she’s now on medication, she’ll need a dental and some geriatric bloodwork to ensure we can give her the best shot at comfort and health in her golden years.
Here’s the most heartwarming part: our incredible friends at Boomer’s Haven - Animal Rescue & Sanctuary have stepped up without hesitation. With the help of a loving foster, they’ll be taking over Poppy’s care and covering her medical needs once her stray hold is up — including that much-needed dental.
Our job? To help raise the funds.
Poppy deserves to feel safe and pain-free for the rest of her days. Every little bit helps.
Our goal? $1600.00
