*** We're getting really, really, REALLY (did I mention really?) excited about an X-ray machine for DACC. Thank you to the moon and back! ***
Young Emaline is dear to my heart as a former foster (now adopted!) who really would have liked to get an X-ray done at DACC right away to see why her hips were wonky and she wasn't fully weight-bearing. While she received so much love and care from the FoDACC/DACC community, what was missing was a major tool in the vet’s diagnostic tool belt, an X-ray machine in house!
Sweet peas like Emaline have to be scheduled to get in elsewhere for X-rays, which takes time, great expense, logistics and can add stress to the dogs & cats. DACC needs an X-ray machine. FoDACC is poised to help the vet/vet techs at DACC, who are revolutionizing the in-house care at DACC, by obtaining an X-ray machine -- but it's expensive!
We need your help to raise the $34,000 for an X-ray machine, as well as donations toward allllllllllll the other things FoDACC funds for the deserving dogs & cats of DACC (the list goes on and on and on and on ... !!!).
:> Let's help the DACC veterinary personnel get what they need! Let's help the dogs and cats! #BetheChange :>
*An x-ray machine would allow us to tell if a dog is holding up a paw out of fear or because its leg is broken.
*An x-ray machine would allow us to tell if a dog has an enlarged heart as a side effect of heartworm disease and can alter how we treat it.
*An x-ray machine would allow us to tell if a cat that's been hit by a car has spinal damage or is just in shock.
*An x-ray machine would allow us to count how many babies a pregnant mom has inside her, so we know for sure that they've all made it out when she delivers.
*And on and on and on.
Friends of DACC has put up the substantial first deposit to secure the order. We have to make a $8,500.00 payment on August 15 and come up with the full amount by October 1. But the sooner we have the total, the sooner we can take delivery of the machine and start X-raying in house! Please donate to help the animals at DACC!
