Our poor little Hartley – trouble just seems to find and follow him, despite his wonderful disposition, huge heart, gratitude and love for humans and animals.

He was neglected his entire life and inevitably ended up in a kill-shelter in August. Several wonderful people stepped up to raise the funds to sponsor and vet him and transport him to our rescue. He has been battling ear issues since his arrival and, after many treatments, it’s official: His canals are closed and need to be opened. This will happen within the next week after a round of antibiotic shots and rest to battle his current infection.

What’s that mean? You guessed it! Another surgery and vet stay … After this procedure, however, our little man will (hopefully) not know what suffering means … ever again. He is so spunky and vivacious, despite his hearing problem.

If you originally helped Hartley or have just met him and want to help us help him, we could use your help … once again. Our vet bill is already enormous. Just visit his profile  and scroll down to the Donate button. If you want to sponsor him on a monthly basis on your budget, you can do that, too …
