*the pasted below status is from a Lorain Clinic employee on behalf of Lorain Animal Clinic for those of you who question the authenticity and security of this donation link.*taken from facebook link for Lorain Clinic.
My name is Amanda, I am a avid animal lover and very passionate about all animals especially American Staffordshire Terriers. I am a vet tech and live in NC with my husband Jake, a meteorologist in the Air Force, who also shares my love of animals. We have a beautiful am staff mix who is our world.
When I read the story about Herbie (been named by the vet clinic caring for him) I was enraged and heartbroken over it. Herbie was found severely, emaciated and a crushed skull (frontal sinus cavity) from abuse. I honestly thought that he was a chihuahua in the picture....I knew that I had to do something, and raising money for his recovery is the best that I can do for him.
Here are some links about Herbie's Story:
The Lorain Animal Clinic IS accepting credit card payments over the phone, and also you can mail checks into their address; here is the information for that.
Donations can be made to The Wood Foundation at 4205 Oberlin Ave., Lorain, OH 44053. please put Attention:Herbie on check.
or credit card payments over the phone can be made by calling here: (440)282-6769
I am making this indiegogo fundraiser, because as of today there were NO online fundraising for poor Herbie, and I know this is faster, more convenient and has a farther reach. Thank you so much!
How you will be helping
All of the funds raised will go solely into the long term care that Herbie is going to need. He has shown that he wants to live, now we as a society need to help him fight this fight against those who did this to him.
Your money will go to Lorain Clinic who is taking care of Herbie, as well as any other medical needs that he will require in the future.
Other Ways You Can Help
If you cannot donate, just please spread the word. Animal lovers must unite and show those who lack any moral standing, or human compassion that they cannot win, and we will always stand against them.Good overcomes evil, always, and love perseveres.
Herbie is full of love, even after all of this, so please, please give him that love back by helping him to recover.
Please Share, and help Herbie, he needs everyone at this point...he needs our positive energy and love.
Much Love!
Amanda and Jake
