Gigi's Recovery Album including some videos.
7-27-2024: Thanks to Volunteer Pilots Paul and Alyssa, Gigi flew from Alabama to the Chicago area. She is now safe in foster care and doing great learning about house training and being spoiled as she should be. We got a better photo of her possible inguinal hernia and we will be fundraising for her preop bloodwork, spay and hernia repair surgery. What a sweet little dog!!! We need to raise at least $800 or more as bloodwork will be over $300 and then spay and hernia surgery will be possibly $500. If we need to do a dental- add another $150. Working on her go fund me now but here are other donation options: VENMO @illinoisbirddogrescue ZELLE info@illinoisbirddogrescue.org PayPal thru www.illinoisbirddogrescue.org Mail checks- Illinois Birddog Rescue PO Box 364 Wood Dale, IL 60191
7-14-2024: Gigi is a very cute red and white Beagle that was found with her litter mate in rural northern Alabama. Both dogs were covered in fleas and ticks and were more than likely dumped. The family that found them are keeping the boy and we are moving Miss G to the Chicago area for foster care as soon as I can line up transport. It looks like Gigi has had many litters and she also has an inguinal hernia that we will have to surgically repair when she is spayed. According to her Alabama foster dad, she is the sweetest and very affectionate. The vet guessed her to be around 4 years old. Once we get Miss G to the Chicago area, we will be doing blood work and can assume she was probably infected by the tick bites. She and her brother are currently on antibiotics just in case. We are still waiting for her heartworm status.
We have a loving foster home lined up locally to work on her cage and house training, but moving forward, we are looking for a foster to adopt family in the Chicago area. Potential families must have a safe fenced in yard and Beagle experience would be a plus. Gigi has a wonderful Beagle houndie bay, so potential adopters need to appreciate her beautiful singing voice.
