Cindy Lou Who needs your help!!

Meet Cindy Lou Who, here just in time to save the holiday spirit! Cindy Lou is an absolutely gorgeous black pit bull terrier / bulldog mix. She has an adorable underbite, weighs 32 pounds and is just a puppy at only 12 months old. She arrived at the shelter hit by a car and needed immediate surgery to repair her left hind leg. The shelter does not have the facilities for extensive surgeries, and her leg would have been amputated had she not gotten out safely.


Fortunately for Cindy Lou, one of our volunteers fell in love and was determined to save her. After seeing her x-rays, we suspect she may have been beaten and not hit by a car. On December 16 she arrived at our veterinary hospital and we are eagerly awaiting from our veterinarian to hear her prognosis. She will be in need of a foster or forever home in a week or so once she is healing.

We are extremely grateful for the generous donation from one amazing individual for Cindy Lou’s surgery. However, we are still in need for your help in saving Cindy Lou Who’s leg. As an all volunteer, 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, Pet Rescue of Mercer relies heavily on your donations to continue saving lives. Cindy Lou’s vet bills are projected to be at least $1500 and they are quickly mounting. We desperately need your support for Cindy Lou Who. Contributions can be made online through our website www.petrescueofmercer.org or mailed directly to us at Pet Rescue of Mercer, P.O. Box 2574, Hamilton, NJ 08690.
