On Nov. 1, 2007 an injured stray dog, Colton , was dropped off at the
Isabella County Animal Shelter. He had a leg injury that looked like it
may have been caused by a snare hunting trap, which is sometimes used as
an alternative to guns. Colton was in need of a surgery to amputate his
injured leg. The problem was finding money for the surgery. The cost to
amputate Colton 's leg was between $1,200 and $1,500. The county did not
have the funds for this type of surgery.
Colton attracted the hearts, and wallets, of many Isabella County
citizens. An estimated $4,500 was donated to The Humane Animal Treatment
Society, more than enough to fix his leg. Not only was Colton able to
have his surgery performed, but the extra money would go into a
permanent fund to help other injured animals in the future. "The Colton
Fund for Special Needs Animals" now had its first check.
