I’m a great believer in natural remedies for my dogs and horses – apart from when they need antibiotics to kill bacteria! So is valerian root a good natural remedy as a calmer for nervous dogs, or in special circumstances like thunderstorms and fireworks?

Galga Tina with heartworm – please donate to her vet treatment
Heartworm is a life threatening health problem in dogs, if untreated, spread by mosqsuito bites. Treatment can be for months and means the dog must not move around very much or it stimulates the worm to move around.
Galga Tina at Galgos Rescue Almeria has tested positive for this terrible problem. Here she is at the vet being examined.
From Sandy at GRA. Our sweet Tina tested positive for Dirofilaria, heartworm. Heartworm is a serious and potentially fatal disease if it is not treated properly and closely monitored. Of course, we didn’t waste a single moment. Tina returned to the veterinarian for a thorough examination. Her heart was carefully checked, and another blood sample was taken. It was examined under a microscope to determine whether any heartworm larvae were still present, allowing her treatment plan to be tailored to her needs.

Further update on galga Galena with Asociacion Somos Galgos
They have already operated on our little girl, Galena. Her wound was healing very well with the treatments. They have cut off the edges of her dead skin so that it closes properly and have done a complete reconstruction inside and out. The traumatologists are happy with the result and we are even more so!!! It is noticeable that she wants to live, and we want her to be well so that we can start a second and happy life.We have managed to pay the bills in several installments, so if you help us a little more, we will be able to continue giving her the care she deserves (for her and for Cate who also needs surgery) We ask for help and we thank you for the support this little one is getting, you know that without you we could not bear the weight of the association.If you want to adopt, contact through: https://linktr.ee/somos_galgosBizum: NGO Code 01979Transfer: La Caixa ES89 2100 4991 6622 0027 0343.Join here: www.teaming.net/somosgalgosEvery gesture counts.

Galgo Cate with a genital injury = more bills for Asociacion Somos Galgos
Today we introduce you to Cate. This cutie is a 4-year-old male and is already sick. We took him to the hospital today because, as you can see, he has a pretty serious genital injury. For now, they have told us that we need to perform surgeries and give him a lot of medication for the infection and pain. Next week, if he gets better, we will have to operate on him.Summer is being tough, for them and for us. More bills and no definitive adoption. You know we do what we can, but between veterinary, residency, and educators expenses, we can’t take on more dogs for now.WE CLOSE DOORS UNTIL RECOVERYAsociacion Somos Galgos email somosgalgos1@gmail.comIf you want to adopt, contact through: https://linktr.ee/somos_galgosBizum: NGO Code 01979Transfer: La Caixa ES89 2100 4991 6622 0027 0343.Join here: www.teaming.net/somosgalgosEvery gesture counts.
