18.01.2022 Beloved pet dog Watson has been reunited with his family after going missing nearly a decade ago. WHAT AN EXCELLENT STORY.... The Maltese Shih Tzu disappeared from his family’s Hilton home in August 2012. But in an extraordinary stroke of luck, the now 13-year-old dog was found last Friday on the side of Wattleup Road in blistering 41C heat. Read all about here https://bit.ly/3btHMDw

08.01.2022 ***WARNING*** THE REALITY OF HEARTWORM Heartworm is a mosquito transmitted parasite that develops in animals and can eventually, if not treated be fatal. Now is... a very important time to be ensuring your pet/s are on a preventative. With all of this wet weather and the fact that there is definitely heartworm through Queensland mosquitos will be breeding and spreading this disease. Angel-Paws has been struggling with heartworm positive dogs for the last 18 24 months. In 2018 it was brought to our attention that we had rehomed several dogs that ended up testing positive to this disease. Fortunately these dogs went to wonderful homes and the new families provided the needed treatment for them. This was however a huge concern for us. For many years we did not heartworm test dogs coming in to our care, the same as we do not do blood tests on every animal. Our adoption policy was to ensure each animal had a basic physical, was wormed, vaccinated, desexed and microchipped. In 2019, through consultation with our vet clinics and JCU parasitologists, we decided to waive our surrender fee and request that all dogs surrendered to us are tested for heartworm. This did not mean we would not take a HW positive animal in, it just allowed us to manage the number of HW positive dogs in care. To date we have not rejected any animal put up for surrender due to heartworm. To treat a HW positive dog costs around $1500 and takes 3 6 months (sometimes longer) to get the all clear. It also means that our foster carers need to commit to these animals for at least 3 months which then takes up space for the next dog to come in. In the last 12 months we have had 25 heartworm positive dogs through our doors. Most of these have stayed with us for the entirety of their treatment, albeit a few have been rehomed with the agreement that the new family will take over the treatment. In all cases each and every one of these dogs is now heartworm free and on a preventative to stop a reoccurrence. Based on these numbers, Angel-Paws needs to raise an additional $40,000 per year just to cover the cost of Heartworm disease. The pictures in this post are some of the dogs currently in care that are heartworm positive. Please, if you have a dog and it is not on heartworm prevention take it to your vet and get it tested today. We sincerely thank businesses like SavourLife who support many different rescues to help save dogs. We recently recieved a $5,000 grant from this amazing organisation which will go straight towards the cost of care for our foster animals. **Please share to help educate the wider community.
