THROWN FROM A CAR! This little one was rescued by a couple good samaritans and brought to the shelter where she was immediately taken to the vet. Lacerations on the ear, face and a broken leg. She will be well taken care of & loved at the shelter. Hopefully her leg can be saved. Time will tell. This just reminds us why we do this every day.😢

This is our adorable Henry! He came to us through transport, horrible infected mouth, growths on his face and around his eyes and not a young boy. The first picture is just after his arrival. The next picture is with Brenna, a volunteer who comes every week and brushes Henry and hangs out with him. The next two pictures are of Henry showing how medical attention, love and attention overall, plus good nutrition and care can change an animal. He’s now loving his life thanks to Friends of Strays!
