We’re glad you’ve come to MyDogIsCool.com, a Web site that can help people save dogs from dying in hot cars this summer.

The “dog days” of summer can be dangerous for dogs — especially those dogs left inside hot cars. Every year, countless dogs die after being locked in cars while their owners work, visit, shop, or run other errands. These tragic deaths are entirely preventable.

Message from the Warden:
I received a call from the warden this morning asking if I could
please assist her in getting the word out about this gal. She said
this family has had her since she was just a pup. Recently, the husband
(her master) passed away suddenly, which left his wife and son to care
for her. Well, the wife has gone off the deep end, and has decided she
couldn’t care for her any longer.  She took her to her sister’s house, but
her sister can’t afford to care for the dog, and is unable to reach her sister
so she could come and get her. The sister had no other choice but to call
the warden and have her taken to the shelter. The warden says she is a very sweet girl, who doesn’t deserve to be put down. She wants to give her a
chance to live out the rest of her life. The warden also feels she may need some medication for pain due to old age. The warden would love for a rescue or individual to help this girl have a happy ending.
 
The warden can provide you with a picture if you need it. She can also fill in the blanks here with her story. PLEASE HELP HER!!!!

I pulled/rescued SCOUT–an adorable little guy from death row out of Kern County Shelter/Bakersfield..

He was transported by Stephanie and Paula on Friday June 19th 2009.. By 6 pm when I met Paula to pick him up he was extremely lethargic, a lot of nasal discharge, sneezing and difficulty breathing.

I immediately took him to my vet. A Parvo test was performed(negative), xrays & medications. He has been admitted to the hospital since Friday night.

Over the weekend I went to visit him and spend time with him a few times. Saturday he was worse then Friday. Sunday he was in isolation & oxygen and they started iv fluids on him.

Today–Monday June 22nd–Update is he is worse now but the vet is confident he will turn the corner–it’s just getting him over the “hump”…They are starting him on a nebulization stimulation to try to break up the congestion. There is more discharge today then through the weekend. If by Tuesday evening he isnt any better then more xrays will be taken to see if pneumonia has settled in both lungs. He has URI, Kennel cough, pneumonia in one lung.

The estimate for everything prior to todays update was $700.00. If he needs to stay in the hospital additional days, change medications & xrays it will jump up to $800-$900.00 for his care..

Any donations are appreciated for his care:
