Funded: Help River Regain His Strength

2nd Annual Paws in Peril Care-A-Thon:Provide Critical Emergency Care for Animals in Need

River was once a trail horse in the mountains when his owner fell on hard times and could no longer afford his care. Attempts to rehome him were unsuccessful and without sufficient food, River began to lose weight rapidly, his condition worsening by the day.

A rescue stepped in to save River before it was too late. Upon arrival, he was severely malnourished and close to starvation. He had a significant heart murmur but was in too poor a condition for treatment. He was placed on a refeeding program to slowly reintroduce food without overwhelming his already weakened body.

While River is gaining weight and making progress in his recovery, he still requires ongoing treatment to fully regain his health. He will need further care to treat his heart murmur once strong enough. With continued proper nutrition and medical attention, River has a good chance of living out his days in a loving home as a healthy, happy companion horse.

After starving, River needs your help to get better!

You can help River get the treatment he needs to heal. Your gift will not only give him the hope to keep fighting, but your donations will help cover his ongoing care.

Help us meet our goal of $6,000 for River and pets like him.
