<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Hi! Mama Vegas here!<br>
</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">"On
March 26, 2009 I found myself being left in a night drop box at an
area animal shelter. It was the middle of the night and I couldn't
understand why my humans just left me there! You see, I was very
pregnant and ready to give birth any day! I wanted a nice soft bed to
have my puppies, not some cold hard floor. </span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">However,
the next night I did give birth to seven beautiful little puppies. No
matter how much I cleaned, licked and cared for them, 3 were just too
weak to survive. </span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">The
next day, this very nice lady from NTBHR came to pick up me and my 4
healthy puppies!! She took us all to the vet so they could make sure
everyone was OK. My puppies are fine, but I have been diagnosed with
heartworms, so once my puppies are weaned, I will have to undergo
painful and expensive treatment to destory the worms that are living in
my heart.</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">This is where you come in!</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">You can sponsor one of my puppies through this firstgiving page, and help pay for their shots and de-worming.</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">You can also sponsor me, since I will have to be spayed and undergo expensive heartworm treatment.</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"> </span></strong></span></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Then, you can visit my website where our foster mom keeps everyone updated!</span></strong></span></span><BR>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"> It is <a href="http://momandbuppies.shutterfly.com/" target="mytarget">momandbuppies.shutterfly.com/</a>
. Here you will meet me and each of my babies! My foster mom keeps

<strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Once my puppies are grown, we will all be available for adoption on North Texas Basset Hound Rescue's website at <a target="mytarget" href="http://www.bassetrescuedfw.org">www.bassetrescuedfw.org</a></span></span></span></strong><BR>

It broke my heart knowing she was dumped in the night drop box! Who in the right mind takes a dog in the middle of the night and drops her in the night drop box days before she is to give birth! We tried to get Vegas out before she had them but were just hours late. <br><BR>Be sure to check out their pictures on the shutterfly account. I still have to do their 4 week photo shoot today but they are PRECIOUS! We don't know yet if they are purebred but they are looking just like purebred babies!<BR><br><BR>Stacy - slave to Jack and Teki<BR> Foster mom to Bailey, Rose, Mama Vegas and her little casinos<br><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></span></span></strong><BR><strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br></span></span></span></strong><BR></body>
