Friends!
We are looking for a 30' or so class c motor home in good condition.
This vehicle will help us continue to bring low cost spay and neuter to the greater san antonio/san Marcos area. We have a budget for this purchase and cash in hand so if you know anyone with one that needs a good home, pm us!

Greetings!
We received this voicemail from a private number, anonymously this morning. Since the concerned citizen did not leave us a way to call them back or contact them to help address their concerns, I decided to reach out here.

First, thank you so much for your concerns. We appreciate that someone is looking out for our wellbeing.

Secondly, we are aware of the issues at the clinic in question and in truth at most of the communities and shelters in the greater san antonio and Texas area. Parvo and distemper, while largely myth in some of the northern areas of the United States are RAMPANT and endemic in the undervaccinated area of the south. These viruses are a huge part of the mortality rate in Texas puppy populations and are devastating to both watch and treat.

Having spent a huge portion of my career in shelter medicine and creating protocols for multiple large shelters in the greater san antonio area, preventing the spread of these diseases is a priority as is the prevention of cross- contamination in naive populations. As most of our clients either require low-cost services, are rescue partners in under-served areas or are community shelters dealing with street dogs we assume a very small portion of them have ever received a vaccine and or are already carrying a virus.

With the intense desire to help be part of the solution, bringing high quality basic care like spay and neuter and vaccination to these patients is EXACTLY what we are trying to do.

Again,
Thank you concerned citizen for your warning. Please know that it was not received lightly and that we ALWAYS keep the health and safety of all our patients in mind during all our outreach events.

Sincerely,
The Dragonfly Team.

Friends and colleagues!
Dragonfly is in need of a rent/borrow/hire a gooseneck capable heavy duty pickup for Saturday Jan 7th.
We need to move our 32ft travel trailer mobile unit from lytle to seguin (arrival in seguin by 8am) and then back to lytle late afternoon.
Our 3500 is in the shop with little hope to have it back by then.
Leads are appreciated!

Call to arms!!!

The attorney General has been asked to write a public opinion on whether tnr should count as 'abandonment'. Considering most tnr cats have zero interest being loved in homes this is ludicrous!!!

Allowing cities to make release of feral cats after tnr 'abandonment' would essentially make it illegal.
This would dramatically hamper the struggle to manage cat populations, hurt wildlife, and increase the incidence of disease by limiting colony management techniques.

Please email their office either with the letter I've put here or with your own!

One of our lovely patients!

Edit: Helen is getting her wheelchair!!!!

Can you help Helen walk again?

For those new to Helen's story she was found September 2nd, belly up with her legs splayed and unable to walk. In the last month and a half we've made a lot of progress from where she started. She originally had no sensation in her back legs or tail and now she can independently move her legs and responds to touch and stimuli. Unfortunately, she still has not been able to get her legs under herself to stand or walk.

To continue her therapy and possible lifelong care we would like to get Helen a wheelchair and a rear support harness. The wheelchair is approximately $200, the harness $40 and some washable diapers $12 for a 3 pack.

If you can help Helen walk again please consider donating via PayPal to https://www.paypal.me/CCAPAdopt and specify that your donation is for Helen

Our Venmo is CCAPAdoptmc !

Or if you could commit to purchasing one of her therapy items they are on our wishlist

We can also accept amazon cards and codes or donations via Facebook pay although that will likely have to go to my personal facebook.

Dogs are so amazing!!!!
This guy had a bad leg injury leaving his right leg useless. This video was taken less than 18hrs post amputation. Obviously his pain is well controlled, but he never missed a beat! No crying in bed over his misfortune! Look at him go!
He's still looking for his forever home at the shelter in San Marcos! Give them a shout and ask for Murphy!!!
