Merlin is a four-month-old little black lab mix in need of emergency heart surgery to save his life. Tri County Humane Society will do everything in their power to save him, but needs donations to pay for the operation. A specialist must do the extensive surgery, and Dr. Evans at Hollywood Animal Hospital is willing to do the surgery for half-price, but it will still cost $2,000. Merlin deserves a chance at life and to have a loving family.

To help Merlin, please make checks payable and send to: Tri-County Humane Society, 21287 Boca Rio Road, Boca Raton, FL 33433. For more information or to make a credit card donation over the phone: 561-482-8110.
The Tri County Humane Society is a not-for-profit, No Kill organization dedicated to saving animals in Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade Counties.

Neighbors 4 Neighbors is a non-profit organization 501(c) 3, originally created by CBS4 in 1992 in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew. As South Florida recovered, CBS4 made a commitment to make Neighbors an integral part of its community service program. Using the power of television to reach people who want to help and by forging relationships with important community and business leaders, Neighbors has evolved into a valuable resource for individuals and families in our community facing critical needs.
