Please help Phoenix rise above the occasion! He is not a well boy, and he needs your help. He came from the shelter matted and filthy, very overweight due to his hypothyroidism - but malnourished because he couldn't eat, dehydrated yet with lungs so full of fluid from pneumonia we couldn't even see them in his x-rays, double "cherry" eyes that are badly infected, cataracts, horrible ear infections - and the list goes on. Yet despite all this, the boy just wanted to be touched and petted by the humans around him. Please, if you can help - click on the chip in below! What better way to put the ashes of his life back together than by giving him a chance at a new and healthy life!

GOOD NEWS! While Rocky's tumor was classified as malignant ocular melanoma, the pathology results indicate that there was no spread of the disease beyond what they were able to remove during surgery! Donations are still needed to help offset the cost of taking care of Rocky. Any little bit helps, and Rocky thanks you! You can send a check in Rocky's name to CSAC, PO Box 1704, Westminster, MD 21158-5704.
Maize came to us as a stray from a shelter in NJ, His ears were horribly infected and he was in a lot of pain. While having his ears attended to, the vet also discovered Maize had glaucoma in both eyes, adding to his intense pain. The ears are healing nicely, and he is on pain meds for his eyes, but Maize needed ablations of both eyes so the pain would stop forever. His surgery cost us over $1,100, which seriously depleted our emergency medical fund. Will you help us get it back up so there will be funds available for the next doggie emergency? You can send a donation in Maize's name to: CSAC, PO Box 1704, Westminster, MD 21158-5704. Maize sends you his love.

Adopting a dog means saving a life. A living, sentient being, with real feelings, has been discarded like used tissue. Adopters bring these precious souls home, and give them kind, loving, forever havens, sometimes for the first time in their lives. We are deeply grateful for every CSAC adopter, and adoptive homes are the constant objective for our needy charges.
To enable these wonderful adopters to find their forever friends, we need foster families to help along the way. Fostering saves COUNTLESS lives. Fostering enables CSAC to save many dogs from the streets and the shelters, from puppy mills and troubled former homes. We work VERY HARD not to kennel CSAC dogs. They need real homes where they can recover and grow in peace and confidence, where they can socialize and return to the world healed and ready for their "Happy Ever After." Foster homes are essentially halfway houses for dogs, step down units, often following intensive care of one kind or another, following physical or emotional trauma. Sometimes both. A homeless animal is a suffering animal, regardless of the circumstances that lead him/her there. Fostering also makes room in shelters, so the next dog that comes along finds a reprieve and another day to wag his tail to try to get adopted.
Fostering brings joy and tears, but it is one of the most fulfilling things anyone can do to truly help the dogs. It is also one of the most critical services a volunteer can provide. Become a champion for those who cannot fight for themselves. Become a true life saver! Please apply to join our amazing group of fosters by clicking on the link to the left.
