This Valentine’s Day, instead of chocolates or flowers, give the gift of love by helping a dog in need. Yesterday, Bellamy had a major vet visit, and she needs your support!

This gentle girl came to us from a breeder release, where she had limited exposure to home life. She also bears the scars of a difficult past; a mark around her neck suggests she was once chained up. Despite this, she is unbelievably sweet, affectionate, and eager to trust.

Her foster says: "She is the sweetest girl, and we’ve loved loving her! She adores snuggling on the couch, watching the world around her, and learning from our resident dogs. Every day, she grows more confident and comfortable in her new life."

Before she could fully enjoy this fresh start, Bellamy needed urgent medical care, including:
🔹Spay surgery
🔹Umbilical hernia repair
🔹33 teeth extracted 😢 you can see the blood on her muzzle in the second picture
🔹Ear hair removal to prevent infections
🔹Vaccinations & post-surgery medications

Her vet bill alone was $1,672! Another rescue dog also needed dental surgery the same day, bringing our total bill to $2,594 for one day!! NDLB covers all medical expenses, but we rely on donations to continue saving lives.

You can donate the following ways:
Venmo: NDLB-donation (under our direction, Chariss Nearmyer; confirmation code 0442) - please mention Bellamy in the comment box
Paypal: donations@NDLBrescue.org
Or the Facebook donate button.

This Valentine’s Day, show love where it matters most. Help us cover Bellamy’s medical costs so she can enjoy a future filled with warmth, comfort, and kindness. Thank you for your support!

Riley needs your well wishes! She will be going to the vet on Thursday for her first heartworm injection ♥️

This gorgeous girl is a new arrival to our rescue. She was previously living on a farm, which is how she contracted heartworm. Riley will have her first injection later this week, followed by a month of kennel rest and two more injections. We can’t wait for Riley to get a clean bill of health!

With medication and three injections, Riley’s treatment will cost about $1,000. Can you help this pretty pup?

Thank you for your donations! We wouldn’t be able to help medical needs dogs without your generous help 💙

Riley is a gentle giant with a goofy side. She thinks she’s a lap dog and enjoys following her people around the house. She’ll make a wonderful dog once she’s ready for adoption in 2-3 months. ... See MoreSee Less

Before and after foster mom asks if you want a treat 🤤 Piper’s listening ears were activated!

Our gorgeous boy Piper was brought in from Afghanistan as a part of a large rescue mission spearheaded by Kabul Small Animal Rescue. Despite the huge transition he experienced, Piper has come so far! He is motivated and eager to learn. All he wants is to make his friends happy. Piper loves his people, but does better with women than men. Going on walks and playing with his canine friends are some of his favorite things.

Piper would love to find his furever home! Read more about him at ndlbrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/#action_0=pet&animalID_0=20537131&petIndex_0=46 ... See MoreSee Less
