Donations Needed for Dog’s Surgery

The animal control officer in Waterford and East Lyme is asking for help to pay for a dog’s much-needed surgery.

A dog with a large tumor on her face was found roaming and no one has come forward to claim her, so animal control is asking for help through social media to pay for her surgery.

Anyone who would like to make a donation should contact Goodfriends Veterinary Hospital directly at 339 Flanders Road, Suite 104 East Lyme or by calling 860-739-4637.

The dog has an appointment for surgery on March 30. So far, the hospital has received $500 in donations.

Any cash donations or checks made payable to the town of Waterford or animal control cannot be used for the surgery.

Check with the animal control Facebook page for information on when the dog is accepting visitors or will be available for adoption.
