Judy and Minnilli are back together again with their friend Lucky!

(Updated: 7/23/2010)

We continue to receive requests for information on Judy, Minelli and Lucky and want to thank everyone that is interested in adopting them.  If you have contacted us expressing interest, please continue to have patience as we work through the heartwarming number of calls and e-mails.  Having a permanent home for the trio doesn't appear to be a concern thanks to all of these contacts, though picking just one home from the (literally) hundreds of e-mails/calls that we have received is going to be difficult--we're sure that there will be many wonderful options to have to choose from!
 
Both Judy and Lucky have officially started treatment for their heartworm disease, and are doing very well so far!  We're monitoring them closely for any signs of distress, as heartworm treatment can be very hard on dogs.  Another concern with treatment is that the medication can be difficult to obtain due to a manufacturing shortage--with dogs the size of lovely lady, Judy, that can be especially challenging!  On behalf of Judy and Lucky, we'd like to remind everyone of the importance of heartworm prevention!  For more information on heartworm disease and what you can do to prevent it, please click here.. 
 
If you are interested in adopting this unique menagerie (the three will be placed together) please e-mail your contact information to us at elpo@welovepets.net so that we can send you an application.  It is heartwarming to see the many offers to adopt, and it will be difficult to choose from among all of the wonderful homes available!  We appreciate your patience as we continue to work through the high number of e-mails and voice mails that we have received.

Our wonderful trio is continuing to do well!  We've had visitors inquire as to where Lucky is, rest assured that he is still with us and getting plenty of attention.  With the heartworm treatment being underway, it was decided to have Lucky lodge separately for the time being so that everyone can have room to rest and relax during the treatment/recovery period.  We still have every intention of having the trio be adopted together!
 
Our wonderful trio continues to do well, and enjoyed a fun afternoon outing at Cafe Lago this past weekend!  A HUGE thank you to Gabriela Pataro for having this wonderful event, where over $2100 was raised to support the medical care of Judy, Minelli and Lucky!  Speaking of medical care, Judy and Lucky are gearing up for their next round of heartworm treatments.  Once they've recovered from the treatments we'll be making plans for spays, neuters and dentals!  We're receiving adoption applications for the trio--if you're interested in adopting all three together we'd love to hear from you, too!  Adoption applications will be accepted through August 31, 2010.  To receive an application, send an e-mail to elpo@welovepets.net or stop by in person at East Lake Veterinary Hospital, 10101 E. Northwest Highway, Dallas, Texas  75238.
