ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO THE MEDICAL EXPENSES FOR THESE PARVO PUPS CARE:

On June 15th 2012, MaxFund was "given" a box of four, 6 week old puppies.  They were all sick with the Parvo virus. 

All were sent to a full service 24 hour hospital for the care that they needed IF they were to survive.  It was a battle, and two of the four pulled through.

These four puppies named Macy, Dillard, Penny and Marshall by MaxFund staff, is one example of why MaxFund is so very special.  There is no price on life if there is a possibility of recovery and a happy, healthy life for the animal. 

The above is an example of MaxFund living its mission.  However, getting hit with cases such as these puts a strain on the organization financially.  It limits the chances for others. 

Parvo cases that have been dropped off at the MaxFund shelter this year:  15 cases from May 2012-July 2012, all were sent to a full service hospital for 24 hour care.  9 survived!-Many of these pups have been adopted, but many are awaiting their forever home.  Dillard and Macy survive, are healthy, happy puppies, and are ready for their forever homes.

***Please vaccinate your puppy and educate those that you see with a new puppy to vaccinate them.  It is also important to keep puppies out of public areas (parks, dog parks, etc.) until they are fully vaccinated at 16 weeks of age.  Remember, one vaccination does not equal protection.

If you would like to purchase a raffle ticket for only $5 please click the registration link above or they will also be available the night of the event. All proceeds to the sale of raffle tickets go straight to Parvo Pups care.
