Success Story: Izzy ![]()
Hi, I’m Izzy, a 7-year-old Pitbull who stays with my dad at a shelter in Laguna Beach, where we have been experiencing homelessness for a year.![]()
I’m my dad’s best friend, so when I started pawing at my ears, he immediately noticed. He went to different stores to buy me medicine, but nothing seemed to work, so he reached out to Feeding Pets of the Homeless to get me back to my usual self again.![]()
The vet found out I had a pretty bad ear infection, but luckily, with some antibiotics and cleaning, I am already feeling much better. My dad has been on top of giving me my meds every day, and my ears are shiny and clean!![]()
Thank you to Feeding Pets of the Homeless for contributing a total of $261 towards my care!![]()
A voicemail from my dad: "...I want to thank you very much for your time and what you're doing for everybody-- you know with the dogs and everything. Bless you for that and keep up the good work.”![]()
Donate today to help more pets like Izzy!
