Thank you, Joni and Janet (the two ladies in the center), for picking up our check tonight from the 5 Kings Boat Poker Run held earlier this month. A big thank you to 5 Kings for letting the HSDMC participate in this FUNdraiser. The HSDMC sincerely appreciates the dedicated volunteers that made this happen. We couldn’t do it without you. This $6,000 will go for renovations for the Spay/Neuter Clinic.

For those wondering, it's been a long evening. Xyla had 5 beautiful babies. We think she is done, but volunteer Pam relieved Lisa to watch her for another hour before calling her done. There are 3 tortoiseshell kittens, 1 dilute Tortie and 1 little orange one. Xyla is also hoping she is done and can get some rest.

Meet Xyla! Our shelter manager will have a late night tonight after working all day as she’s at the HSDMC helping Xyla deliver her kittens. Xyla just came in last night and we are happy she is safe and not delivering outside in the heat. Xyla is very friendly as well as beautiful, a real sweetheart. Thank you, Lisa!

Special Needs #Giving Tuesday Network for Good

Bambi is a sweet fourteen month old Boxer/Lab mix. Bambi was hit by a car in the care of previous owner, and, did not receive necessary veterinarian care. Now she is at the Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County in Decatur, Illinois, awaiting surgery for amputation of her right front leg. Neurological damage cannot be repaired, and, during the length of time she did not receive medical attention, she tried to chew her foot off. She is currently on pain medication and daily bandage change while waiting for scheduled surgery.

Bambi is one of four special needs dogs currently at our facility. Another is Heath, a young, chocolate lab male, waiting for his scheduled surgery at SportsVet in Savoy. Heath needs to have the femoral head removed on his left hip. Heath is another hit-by-car tragedy not receiving veterinary care. He is currently on pain medications. Then, we have Rebecca, a 7 year old Maltese, mostly blind from cataracts. We would like to be able to take her to an ophthalmologist to see if she is a candidate for cataract removal. And, last, but not least is Scooby, a two year old rat terrier mix, that came in mostly blind.

These special dogs would really appreciate any monetary donations to the Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County to help provide for their surgeries and care. You can donate through Network for Good #Giving Tuesday starting now. The Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County is a no-kill animal shelter/rescue that is mainly volunteers, and, depends entirely on private donations and our fundraising activities.

Can you help us help these special dogs?
