Next Week....Naming & Sponsor Opportunities for New Kitty City and HT Dog Zone!
Want to honor a pet or human loved one? We have a great opportunity for you.
The move to our new location is expensive...build outs, equipment, supplies.
Next week we will unveil many opportunities to honor your loved ones by having their
names permanently displayed at our new location!
Stay tuned.......

Can you be a Summertime Foster Parent????
So many of our regular fosters travel during the summer months and that leaves us
scrambling for fosters for our animals. Some have no place to go but boarding and
we HATE to do that to them.
Please, please consider being a summertime foster...even if only for a week or so.
It will truly help our animals!
Contact info@homewardtrails.org if you can foster a dog or a cat!

When Animal Abuse & Neglect Hit Home
Please Help
It's been a rough week for Homeward Trails in that we have had some especially tough-luck,
heart-wrenching cases of animal abuse and neglect come our way.
Funds are tight right now with a move to a new location and so many special needs
dogs and cats already in our system.
Adoptions slow down during summer months when so many travel, thus reducing our
revenue.
But we could not turn our backs on these animals. We just could not.
We desperately need donations to help them...and to keep saying YES when everyone
else out there says NO.
Duckie & Dovie- Almost Starved to Death.....
We got the desperate call late last week about this poor, starved dog and his sister.
He was literally hours from death when he was found in Maryland with his sister
Dovie. No one is quite sure how he has made it. No one. It is obvious that this
dog was restrained and starved and then somehow freed to wander off and die.
Not sure where he would go or if we had the funds necessary to cover his long-term
care, we struggled with what to do. But at day's end, our dedicated volunteers and
staff agreed that we'd simply figure it out.
He is now at HT with a loving foster mom who is slowly helping him. He must be fed
small meals many times throughout the day. He cannot walk very far at all. He is
not very well socialized with other dogs. But he is alive and being carefully monitored
by several of our wonderful vets.
His sister is still at the shelter recovering as she was in better shape but she
too will need extensive vetting and a secure foster home very soon. Both will also
likely require behavioral help to get them adoption ready. This will be a long,
expensive haul..we need your help!

Meet Freeway
Dumped on Highway, Covered in Motor Oil
This poor sweet boy was seen living along the side of a highway for some time before
animal control went to check on him. In a ditch along a busy highway, they found
that he had made a bed of pine needles and leaves to cuddle in. And when approached
he slowly wandered into the woods as if he was used to be being swooshed away. But
he could barely walk as he was thin and very dehydrated. His skin was also visibly
red and irritated...with traces of motor oil that had likely been poured on him.
We could not turn him away though when asked to take him. So he's arriving at HT
tomorrow. We will need the funds to get his skin further checked out and to get
him all the vetting he needs to get back on his feet.

Shot and then Mauled by Dogs...Nash the Wonder Kitty Survives

This poor kitty was found wandering in rural WV suffering from a bullet wound AND
multiple dog bites. The vet was astounded over the fact he survived not just one,
but both attacks. It is suspected someone was treating this cat like a rag doll,
abusing him and then leaving him for dead. Poor Nash was taken to the vet and has
recovered amazingly well...but he'll need some aftercare to prevent infection and
make sure he heals up. They say he is as sweet as pie and needs a chance at life...as
the shelter fills up. His time is limited so HT is taking him this weekend. Nash
needs a foster home or an adoptive home AND donations for his care. Meet Nash [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001fOpaDD9VcjtC5C0_8SnEIBPP1hrslvWpSL50PEXz0GfsAd0ljBWvn6mUp_M9Vb2PCM5a1Ntu-qov-QiPT4VCMhnSd2iMvJmEUfMVspboxo6MAniUN1CEAbsUtYrCMwVTCEwuY8Z194r8rw8f-sh39g==]

Ace :( :(
Our sweet Ace took a turn for the worse just two days after our last e-mail and
had to be euthanized. After a few good days, we hoped he was perhaps on the mend.
But his condition worsened and he could no longer stand or walk and his twitching
became such that it was even too difficult for him to eat. After a final consult
with the vet who surmised that he likely had a brain tumor, it was decided that
the only thing we could really do for him was to alleviate his pain. We gave him
kisses and hugs until the end......your kind donations helped to cover his $750
in medical bills during his final weeks. We are so grateful for your support. We
will certainly pay it forward by helping another dog in need asap. Meet Ace [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001fOpaDD9Vcjtgifk1Y4NXVIiqgfeM94HCr1KsKNYBjA6ICMioEeIIGE-YT8KoB6LWpDs9ILfMDfBigiwaFJ-Au8NFrySvxV_zfFldufacYBBLCBb1CLAHFVcXrwaxov3jehNI9IHoDCif79rIBhgWfg==]
