I rescued a pup on the road I work on in 2010. Starving and abused, "Sam" was in need of care. I brought him to my vets office where he was checked over and was found to have heartworms. Not having the funds myself to treat the worms, I began searching for organizations that might be able to fund his treatment. I found Red Rover, formerly UAN, on the internet. Their Good Samaritan Fund provided $200 of Sam's heartworm treatment cost. (the rest I paid) My intentions were never to keep Sam, but to nurse him back to health and place him in a loving home. We are still fostering Sam and will continue to provide him with love and the proper healthcare(heartguard, annual shots, etc) he deserves. Red Rover is a great organization that came through for Sam. Without their help he would have eventually died from the Heartworms.
