¿Quienes somos?
Estamos unidos en la creencia que los perros y los gatos son criaturas vivas, y no deben ser tratados menos que los humanos. Son capaces de amar y crear relaciones sociales. Experimentan dolor, emociones, miedo y desesperación. Por lo tanto, es responsabilidad de los seres humanos evitar la crueldad contra ellos, al mismo tiempo que les brindan la protección y la seguridad que tan desesperadamente necesitan sin importar dónde se encuentren...
"Kennels of Hope: Providing Shelter and Support for Homeless Dogs by Hope Bridge/Fundacion Gratitud"
In response to the urgent need for homeless dogs to receive essential care such as spay/neuter surgeries, life-saving treatments, veterinary care, temporary shelter, and the opportunity for adoption, Hope Bridge/Fundacion Gratitud has initiated the transformative "Kennels of Hope" project.
Our kennels embody hope and serve as a lifeline for street dogs, granting them the chance to thrive with a noticeable enhancement in their quality of life and well-being that they may have longed for.
Pyometra
The dogs we spay at Hope Bridge/Fundacion Gratitud often come from the streets and endure various health challenges. One common issue we encounter in female dogs is Pyometra, a severe and life-threatening infection that affects the uterus of unspayed female dogs.
When we perform a spay operation involving the surgical removal of the ovaries and uterus, known as OVH, on a female dog with Pyometra, we are not only treating the current condition but also preventing future health issues.
This surgery not only addresses Pyometra but also helps prevent mammary tumors and provides treatment and prevention for conditions such as metritis, neoplasms (ovarian, uterine, or vaginal), cysts, uterine trauma, uterine torsion, uterine prolapse, subinvolution of placental sites, vaginal prolapse, vaginal hyperplasia, and viral uterine diseases like TVT (Transmissible Venereal Tumor).
Sticker Tumor
Many of the dogs at the Kennels of Hope suffer from Sticker tumors, which can be visually aggressive, particularly in cases where the animal has been neglected or left untreated for an extended period.
This sarcoma transmission occurs during mating, through licking or sniffing, and may manifest in extragenital forms. These presentations can include occurrences in the nasal cavity, oral cavity, eyes, anus, and on the skin. In the case of female dogs, these tumors often exhibit a cauliflower-like appearance and may emit a foul odor, sometimes accompanied by cutaneous myiasis (infestation by fly larvae).
