Quincy K-9 Connection Desperately Needs Help with Heartworm Positive Dogs and other vet bills: We have been slammed with heartworm cases and rising vet bills. At the very least, our dogs are required to have rabies, microchip and usually health certificates before going on transport to rescue.. a lot of them need even more vetting than that. EVERY $1 WILL HELP!! Please consider making a donation for their treatments! Click the Donate button below to make a donation. This link will take you to our PayPal site. Or, contact Anne Heckle 217-257-1322 and she will give you details on contacting the vet clinic with donations.
