🐾 Help Daisy Fight for Her Life — and Find a Home 💛

Yesterday, our sweet girl Daisy—a 6-year-old Bluetick Coonhound—was diagnosed with heartworms, a painful and life-threatening condition that could take everything from her… unless we step in and help her fight.

Daisy is the kind of dog who quietly tucks herself into your heart. She doesn’t demand attention—she simply leans into your side, rests her head in your lap, and hopes you’ll stay just a little longer. Right now, she needs more than love. She needs treatment, time, and a home to help her heal. And most of all, she needs you.

💔 Heartworm in Maine: A Growing Concern

Heartworm is no longer a rare parasite in Maine. It’s spreading—and it’s devastating dogs like Daisy. Just one mosquito bite is all it takes for this silent killer to enter a dog’s system. Over time, the worms travel to the heart and lungs, causing excruciating pain, weight loss, coughing, difficulty breathing, and even death if left untreated. It’s a deadly parasite that can be prevented with regular medication, but right now, Daisy is paying the price of not having been protected in time.

Daisy’s heart is at risk. She is fighting for her life, and every day counts. But we can save her—but only with your help.

🌼 Her Treatment Journey: What Daisy Needs

Daisy’s heartworm treatment is not just costly—it’s critical. Her path to recovery is long and filled with obstacles. Here’s what she needs to make it through:

  • Strong injections to kill the adult worms—risky, but necessary. The treatment can cause complications, and Daisy will need constant monitoring.
  • Months of medications, lab work, and tests to ensure that all the worms are gone and her heart is healing.
  • Strict, year-long rest to avoid life-threatening complications like blood clots or embolisms, as her heart recovers from the damage.
  • Ongoing vet visits, care, and round-the-clock monitoring to keep her safe through every step.

None of this comes cheaply. In fact, the full cost of Daisy’s treatment and care is over $10,000. Without our collective support, Daisy’s chances of surviving this disease are slim.

🏡 Looking for a Foster-to-Adopt Home

Daisy deserves a home where she can rest, recover, and feel safe. But right now, she doesn’t belong in a kennel—she needs love, stability, and a quiet place to heal. If you can provide that, Daisy would be forever grateful.

But no matter where she stays, Daisy needs financial support to get the treatment she desperately requires. Your donation will directly fund her heartworm treatment and recovery. Every dollar brings her closer to the chance of a full, healthy life.

Last year, our amazing community came together to help Chestnut, a golden retriever who faced the same diagnosis. Thanks to you, Chestnut made a full recovery, and he’s living his best life today as he finishes his road to recovery. Daisy is now in that same place—she needs her own miracle.

We can do this again—but we need you.
