Providing Emergency Care<br />

JR<br />

In January, Palm Beach County Animal Care &<br />

Control contacted Peggy Adams about a very special<br />

German Shepherd – JR – who was recently confiscated<br />

from a local residence. He was severely injured and<br />

missing the lower half of one of his legs, which was<br />

tied with a wire.<br />

After JR was brought to Peggy Adams, our doctors<br />

quickly realized his leg would need to be amputated,<br />

and discovered he also had heartworm disease.<br />

Thanks to Peggy Adams’ Olivia’s Fund, we were able<br />

to provide JR the leg surgery that he needed at a local<br />

specialty hospital. Our goal is to be able to provide<br />

this necessary care at our shelter by our veterinary<br />

team soon. JR also received heartworm treatments at<br />

Peggy Adams until he was given a clean bill of health.<br />

Thanks to those who support Olivia’s Fund, animals<br />

with special medical issues – such as JR – get the<br />

comprehensive care they need to live their best life.<br />

On March 9 th , JR was adopted into a loving, forever<br />

home which has all of the belly rubs and hugs a happy,<br />

healthy dog could ask for.<br />

About Olivia’s Fund: Olivia came to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League after being rescued from an animal hoarder. She had<br />

significant hip dysplasia and muscle atrophy from abuse and neglect. Olivia had also been shot with a BB gun and needed surgery<br />

to help repair her legs. In honor of Olivia, we set up a special fund to help give a second chance to dogs and cats with medical and<br />

behavioral issues that can be fixed with surgery, special medical treatment, or training. We decided to call it “Olivia’s Fund.”<br />
