We will need proof of sterilization from the vet in order to receive the $100.

Background Story: Texas — The week of Thanksgiving 2025, when most were tucked away in warmth, a group of tiny, helpless puppies were found abandoned in the cold, alone, and fighting for survival. With their eyes barely open and bodies shivering, these fragile souls were discovered in a desperate situation, having been left out in the elements.

It was a heartbreaking scene—far too young to be without their mother. But amidst the neglect, a miracle happened. Kind hearts intervened, rushing them to safety just in time.

After weeks of round-the-clock bottle feeding, medical care, and immense love from dedicated foster families in Texas, these, the "Thanksgiving Miracle Puppies," have blossomed! They have transformed from frail, frightened infants into playful, healthy, and happy puppies ready to take on the world.
