UPDATE on Bo-Peep and Woody

Life has definitely improved for Woody and Bo Peep.  No longer on the streets and with good food, needed vet care and lots of love from their humans, they are both living the good life now.  Bo Peep was just adopted by a family who will shower her with all the love and attention she deserves.  Woody is now living with his own beagle pack, Sandy and Doby in Rockport.  They loving exploring the beaches near their home.  We wish Woody and Bo Peep all the best in their forever homes!

Sometimes our Beagle Angels are the public servants who are working with very limited resources, but still want to save as many animals as they can.  Amber Ayres is a Code Enforcement in Training/Animal Control Officer in the small town of Anahuac, Texas about 50 miles east of Houston.  She oversees the local shelter with space for only 5 kennels and essentially no veterinary care budget.  Two middle-aged beagles were found and brought into her shelter in very poor condition.  Both beagles were very dirty and had extra-long nails. The male, Woody, had a severe ear infection. The female named Bo-Peep, had a large lump on her left hip. Both beagles needed a lot of dental care.  Amber reached out to HBHR to see if we could accept them into our foster program so the beagles could get the medical care they so desperately needed.

Since they have been with us, they have received veterinary care which included removal of the lump on Bo-Peep’s hip, along with dental services.  Unfortunately, both tested positive for heartworms and are currently being treated.  Both beagles had not been well-cared for over the years, but they are now getting healthier by the day.  It is so rewarding to see how these beagles blossom when they are loved and receive the health care they deserve.

We want to thank Beagle Angel Amber for giving these two sweet beagles a second chance at a good life.  Woody and Bo-Peep will be ready for adoption soon!   Please consider a donation to HBHR to help pay for the vet care for Bo-Peep and Woody!
