Herc is not liking life right now, but bet he will make up for it in just about 4 to 5 weeks. He is such a sweet little boy, glad to hear he is making progress and it won't be long before he will be back doing what he likes best. Hugs and kisses

I'm so glad Herc is doing better. It won't be long before he's back to his happy, busy little self.
Here's a further thought on a fund to help out. We have 2,200+ members. If everyone donated $1 per month for a year, that would come out to over $26,000 in a year. That would help out a lot of emergency needs or for some of the rescue dogs' needs. All we need is someone to administer the fund and act as "selection committee" for needs/requests. Anyone willing to do that? If the funds were put in a liquid mutual fund account, they would be accessible and earning interest. We could set it up as a not-for-profit if necessary and work from there or as a sort of group insurance thing. Any attorneys out there? What would be the legal ramifications? Tax liabilities? I think it would be best if any requests for funds include the vet's name and address and funds could be sent directly to the vet. That way, no one would have to worry about propriety. The other pet folks should probably have a look at this, too.
