    How Grey Muzzle Helped
    Medical Expense Grant

    The SAFE Center at Fort Valley State University (FVSU) in Georgia is housed within the University's Veterinary Technology Program (the only four-year program in the state). They host a Community Practice Clinic, which provides topnotch care to the dogs of low-income pet owners and those saved from shelters who need vaccinations and basic vetting before heading up north to adoptive homes. Thanks to you, FVSU received a grant from The Grey Muzzle Organization and the Community Practice Clinic was able to help Chibby San.

    A few months ago, Chibby San (Japanese for little one), a 12-year-old American Bulldog, developed horrible looking lesions all over her body. Friends and family feared the worst and were quick to remind her owner, a military veteran, that at 12 years old, his beloved senior gal was probably at the end of her normal life expectancy.

    He simply said, “No, I believe in beating the odds. The government told me I was dead at 25. She’s going to see the Doc.” So he brought Chibby San into the clinic, and what people thought looked like a life-threatening problem, turned out to be just a very bad skin infection. We're so happy her person did not give up on her and so thankful for the services and care that the SAFE Center at FVSU provides. Chibby San's condition is totally treatable and now she can look forward to many more happy days with her family.
