Clara Bow NEEDS YOUR HELP!

We just took in another heartbreaking case—our second extremely emaciated dog in just a few weeks.

Meet Clara Bow, a 9-year-old mixed breed who came into Pasco County Animal Services in critical condition. When she arrived, she was dehydrated, severely emaciated, battling a severe skin infection, painful ear infections in both ears, and conjunctivitis in both eyes. She weighed just 27 lbs—barely half of what she should weigh—and was so weak she came in lateral.

Despite all of this, Clara Bow is the sweetest soul. We don’t know what she’s endured in her 9 years, but we do know this: we couldn’t turn our backs on her. She deserves a chance to heal, to be loved, and to finally know what it feels like to be safe.
Her recovery will be long and costly, but we believe she can pull through with the right care—and with your support.

If you can donate to help Clara Bow get the medical attention and love she needs, please donate below.​ Every single dollar makes a difference in giving Clara Bow the second chance she deserves. Thank you for standing with us for the ones who need us most
