Approximately 79 animals were examined, altered and vaccinated at the Red Lake Rosie's Rescue clinic in August and another 60 previously altered animals, young puppies and kittens were examined, vaccinated, wormed, and given flea/tick prevention treatment.
Dr. Sue and her team from MN SNAP also removed porcupine quills from three dogs. One big, black gentle boy had a very severe case.
Dr Pierce Fleming, from Plymouth Heights Pet Hospital in New Hope, traveled to Redby to donate his services on Monday. He examined wounds and broken bones and performed surgery on a stray dog, Beanie, that Mike and Lauren caught in Ponemah.
Three second-year veterinary students from the U of MN came up to volunteer, too.
Carma, who owns Whine and Tease grooming salon in Roseau, MN, joined us for the first time and groomed about 20 dogs. After three long days of work, she even said she’d like to come back again!
Thank you to all of the volunteers who made the clinic possible – Nancy, Carolyn, Mike, Lauren, Colleen, Carol, Ellen, Kristen, Deb, Ashley, Carma, Jen, Susan, Laurie, Wallace, Whitney, Caitlin,Vivian, and, of course, Karen.
