CP McQuinn enduring heartworm treatment |
Col.
Potter rescues Cairns in need from all types of situations, including owner
surrenders, strays at a shelter, owner surrender to a shelter or a vet,
impounds from hoarders, puppy mill survivors, and even Cairns found on Craigslist or other social media. Sometimes
the dogs are perfectly healthy, but very often there are underlying health
issues that may or may not be known at the time of intake. One such health problem is a diagnosis of being
heartworm positive at any of the five possible stages. A Cairn at a shelter with such a diagnosis is
usually put to sleep because the cost of treatment and personnel to manage the
critical care of the dog is not something they have the ability to offer.
An average of six to eight times each year, Col.
Potter rescues just such a little Cairn, giving them the chance to overcome
this dreadful condition and live a happy, healthy life. The prescribed treatment program runs an
average cost of $1,000 and is not for the faint of heart, requiring a
dedicated Volunteer to be there for a three or four month duration, managing
every aspect of every day for the dog undergoing treatment.
