BMA - June 12 Clinic 2021

 


A balmy, grey day for June... a nice change from the summer sun.

26 animals total - 17 dogs and 9 cats

Friends came by to see how we are in action. One surprised us with a donation. Another with sweet breads, a client brought ceviche, and Liz and Henriette prepared lunch - such sweet and generous impulses made our day bright.

Thank you friends of BMA - you make the difference!

May Clinic - May 8, 2021


Feels like summer and it is May! The brightness of the day was our constant at BMA's May clinic! Our total for the day was 21 - 6 cats and 15 dogs. 

We have sent our clients home in various modes of transportation: wheel barrows, boxes, wagons, pillowcases, motorbikes but yesterday a full size pick up drove up to our gate with no one at the wheel. The door opened and a 9 yr old boy slid out of the driver's seat to our astonishment - his mother was the passenger.  Anyway, they claimed their dog and off they went...and so another awesome, never a boring moment-day for BMA.

April showers... BMA Clinic April 2021



A pelican walked casually by the clinic gates. That's not the usual traffic. Later, Wally saved the pedestrian pelican from boys who were trying to herd her/him? with rocks toward a boy with a lasso...ay Dios mio! He brought him to the clinic and put him in the brand new plastic dog kennel that Lorraine donated. Hiromi contacted Mark Stackhouse our local bird expert and he recommended Susane Casas, a pelican rehabilitator and vet in Tepic. Sandra talked to her and arranged a meeting. We took Peli home and fed him 5 whole fish over the weekend. The chickens were nonplussed by the guest. On Monday, Miguel Dibildox and Susane performed the surgery to repair the wing and Peli went home with Susane to recover. Prognosis: excellent! A beautiful orchestration of many helpful animal lovers along the way...thank you everyone!

So, the April clinic rained cats and dogs and a pelican!
9 cats (3 males)
17 dogs (3 males)
1 pelicano ?
