River is a young poodle mix. He was picked up as a stray in the City of Cleveland and taken to the animal control facility to be reunited with his owners. Days passed and nobody showed up and due to his condition he was released to rescue. River had obviously been neglected for some time. His coat was thick with knots, he was covered in fleas but this did not affect his spirit. Thanks to your support The Extra Mile funds assisted with River receiving the Spa Day treatment he needed and deserved. What a makeover!

He is a spunky young guy with a new do and looking forward to days ahead.

River is now up to date on shots, microchipped and scheduled for his neuter appointment. He has moved into a foster provider home.

Spa Day Sponsorship
Sponsorship of dogs in need of extreme make overs. Often times a neglected pet left outdoors or not cared for by it’s owner or taken in off the street arrives with severe matting which is extremely uncomfortable to the dog and it’s skin. We work with reputable and professional groomers and veterinary clinics to assist with giving the dog their unhealthy outside appearance a necessary clean up. We have partnered with The Mutt Hutt and their wonderful salon team to provide discounted or complimentary services depending on the severity of the case.

$25: The Basics: Full service wash including an extra long bath, conditioning treatment, blow out and nail trim
$50:  The Detail: Full service groom including necessary mat removal, brushing and maintenance, bath, conditioning treatment, blow out, nail trim and more
$100: Full Service Plus for the extreme cases requiring more time in the salon
