Kathy and Ken came to the rescue of a GSD that needed medical help. The story is one of how a group of GSD lovers put the word out to the world that they were trying to find one dog , Nixie, that was suffering with eye problems. She was found, shipped to the Tanks and needed eye surgery. The expenses were high and one very bright man came up with the suggestion that if a lot of people chipped in a few dollars each, we could help to cover the much needed surgery. The surgery is now done and Nixie is recovering with the Tanks. Ken & Kathy didn't ask for financial help, but times are hard for everyone and this dog needed care to be able to see. The story is on Face Book, but I don't know how to instruct people to look for it. This is the story of how dedicated people can locate this one dog by pulling together and get the medical care she needed. Maybe a few more people can chip in if the word gets out. We can move mountains when we pull together Mary -----Original Message----- From: InquestGSD <InquestGSD@xxxxxxx> To: showgsd-l <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, Aug 25, 2011 8:03 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] The Tanks I just heard of a rescue that Kathy and Ken Tank took in, and this lovely irls needs some $$$erious help with her medical expenses. either Kathy nor Ken Tank have reached out for help, but others in the GSD community feel its only fair we all ship in and help them save this girl. o, on Facebook, some brilliant math person did the number, and if everyone could send $1 or 400 people send in $12, we could greatly impact the vet ills for this dog. am sending my $12 today. aybe you can spare either $1 or $12........like Nike said.....Just do it !!
