But read our story below too:
In addition to your dogs and cats, Dr. Hines has always treated wildlife like us for free. What fees he charged you for his online pet health consultations paid our food and medicine bills. So, times are somewhat difficult for us now since the Texas Veterinary Board and the AVMA put an end to his modest online consultation income. Nevertheless, TPW, NPS and CBP keep sending him hurt wildlife like us because he is the only state and federally licensed veterinarian knowledgeable and willing to accept us in South Texas. None of these agencies contribute one cent to our care – they just drop us off at his doorstep and give out his phone and email address whenever health questions arise. The Veterinary Boards and the AVMA are always suspicious and resentful of people who work for nothing. But they don’t bully Dr. H. as much as they once did. You see, neither of them feel that they have been cut out of a money stream when he only cares for us ownerless foundlings.
So think about helping us out now and then with a small donation. He can put your surplus medical equipment and supplies to good use too! We all have to eat and a lot of us need surgery.
