Meet Lilac, a timid and sweet natured Poodle mix puppy with a congenital heart defect called Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA).  PDA is a surgically correctable condition but that correction requires specialty care and is very expense.

At Cape Ann Animal Aid, we believe that every animal deserves a chance and we are incredibly lucky that all of the doctors and staff at Cape Ann Veterinary Hospital agree. 

Thanks to Cape Ann Veterinary Hospital, Lilac received the life-saving PDA surgery that she needed and is now recovering in a foster home.

To cover the expense of Lilac’s diagnostics, PDA surgery and recovery, we are asking for your help!

To date, the cost of Lilac’s veterinary care totals $1,700. If you would like make a donation to help cover the cost of Lilac’s life-saving surgery, please mail your tax-deductible contribution to:
