PEANUT

Peanut is a chihuahua mix who was rescued back in May when Ms Rosa pulled him off the streets before he could get hit by a car. The area he lived was a horrible place for a loose dog. Peanut lived with Ms Rosa for a while, and then he was adopted by a Fifth Ward Resident, Herbert. He is such a perfect match to Peanut, they are best friends! Recently, Peanut went to medical foster at St. Francis' Angels, because he was heavy HW positive and was having some symptoms. After three weeks of top-notch care, Peanut came home today. His dad Herbert was so happy to see his boy. Peanut is symptom free today, and will be on slow heartworm kill for about 6 months. Then we hope his retest will be negative. Anyone who does not believe there are folks in the "bad areas" who care about their animals, Herbert and Ms Rosa will change your mind. Ms Rosa fosters 14 dogs and now Herbert is a volunteer dog and cat food distributor for Lana's Fund in the Fifth Ward Area. THIS is paying it forward. Thanks to the wonderful care from Anne and Peggy at SFA, Peanut will live a long and happy life! Thanks to all who support us and SFA.
