Story
On March 13th rescuers were heart-broken to find a four month old puppy at a garbage dump. This little girl was surviving on garbage and the remains of a dead horse. As rescuers approached her, it was evident this little pup had something very wrong with her. Now named Chanel, this little puppy had a shocking and severe injury to her right eye whereby the eye itself was no longer in the socket and was severely infected. She was rushed to the Sylvan Lake Vet Clinic, where Dr Mattson confirmed that there was no chance of saving her eye and that she would require surgery to remove the infection and to stitch the eye socket closed. Chanel is undergoing surgery on March 16th and will return to her foster a few days later. Everyone at AARCS is sadden that any animal has to go through this and we are thankful that with the support of our volunteers, foster homes, members and donors that we can rescue dogs like Chanel and give them a second chance at life. As a non-profit organization, AARCS works very hard to ensure all animals receive the best possible care.
