Fassa's Friend, Macy, Need Your Help!
This is the story of Macy’s life, as heart-wrenching as it is, up until she was rescued on August 3, 2010. Macy lived in deplorable conditions, steadily 
being bred. She was literally a breeding machine for four years. When we rescued her, she was confined in the backyard in a dirt pen. While there was access to a minimal amount of shade, there was more than one dog in the pen and only enough shade for one. As you recall, we’ve experienced 5 heat waves with temps above 95. I’m sure we also remember how brutally cold it was last winter and how much snow we had….I’m sure Macy remembers as well because she had been living outside in this weather. Macy is a beautiful reverse brindle boxer, solid and sturdy, but then she would have to be in order to withstand this dreadful life since birth. Macy was to be vaccinated and spayed today, the first time she’s ever been to a vet, however the spay has to wait…Macy is heartworm positive, just one more hurdle for poor Macy to overcome.
She is being treated for heartworm, a treatment that has side effects comparable to chemotherapy. Side effects are vomiting, gagging, coughing, etc. Macy is very sweet; and very shy. When you think of Macy’s first four years, you can only say to yourself , “it’s a miracle 
Macy is still alive.” Keeping this in mind, Fassa’s Friends has set up “Macys Miracle Fund.” Please help us give Macy the life she truly deserves by donating whatever you can towards Macy’s costly medical treatment. Let’s help Macy get through this last obstacle so she can move on the life she truly deserves. How very rewarding it is to know that you have helped such a beauty in her quest for the good life.
Macy is in desperate need of a foster home. Please consider fostering or adopting Macy. Click here for the Foster Application or here for the Adoption Application.
Just one more thing if I may: When you walk by a pet store and see a cute puppy in the window, please remember Macy’s story. That cute pup’s parents are more than likely, living a horrible life like Macy’s. You see my friend, puppy mills and backyard breeders, are multi-million dollar businesses. They make a living by selling a lot of puppies while paying minimal for the care of the dogs they breed. Ask yourself, “Should any living creature suffer like this and some even more so?” If your answer is yes, then buy your puppy from a pet store, an ad in the paper or on-line without verifying credibility. If your answer is no, then please, please, please, either adopt “a Macy” from a rescue or shelter or acquire a puppy from a reputable breeder. Reputable breeders NEVER sell their puppies in pet stores, newspapers, or on-line. Please don’t help to allow puppy mills and the practice of backyard breeding to continue.
Macy and all of Fassa’s Friends Thank You for Your Support!
