Such a wonderful and heartwarming story. Such a brave and royal dog !

Monday July 30, 2012, 4:37 pm
So pleased he is getting the help he needs ----we all owe so much to our animal friends.

What a wonderful thing Kabang did saving her ' little girls' , and risking her life for them. Honestly...this is such a beautiful, beautiful dog, with such a big heart all of her own. Bless her, and her family, and I pray that Kabang gets the attention she needs. On a side note, I watched the "Search and Rescue Dogs of 9/11", (bottom of article), and I sure got a lump in my throat watching that. Thanks, Barb for this great story of hope and rescue. xox

Hooray for the heroic actions of Kabang! I hope she will become an ambassador for all the dogs of the Philippines to encourage other families to love and appreciate their dogs, and I hope the surgery will keep her in good health.

Noted, thanks Barb...Good luck to Kabang, I hope the treatment at the US Hospital will help you...You are a wonderful Dog, and you deserve all the help that can be given to you...

This dog has more courage than most people I know! Glad that she is getting the help that she needs.

Monday July 30, 2012, 8:51 pm
Awesome dog who saved those kids. Glad she is getting help.

Monday July 30, 2012, 8:57 pm
Looks like a Shepherd mix. A beautiful dog.... Dogs have a way of showing their unconditional love, loyalty and compassion with humans and humans can learn a lot from them. It is a shame humans do not treat our animal guardians better.

Monday July 30, 2012, 9:40 pm
Dogs are generally not well treated in the Philippines; such a rarity.

Monday July 30, 2012, 10:06 pm

Monday July 30, 2012, 10:30 pm

I am trying to find out where to donate. I'll post anything that I find out here.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 6:33 am
thanks, I hope they do a follow up for this hero....

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 7:31 am
Animals would give their live's for us, its ashame that not all people would do the same for them, instead they abuse, mistreat and kill them with no mercy!!

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 9:04 am
Wonderful story. I do hope we can see photos of KaBang after surgery?

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 9:19 am
This sweet angel went above and beyond in his actions!!! Im glad the girls are safe and this sweetie survived. But I must say the actions of strangers to help this angel warms my heart.
I wish this four legged angel a speedy and safe recovery...ALL of humans should take note what an act of courage truely is

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 9:22 am
Thanks.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 10:23 am
Thank you. I hope this wonderful dog will get better.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 11:31 am
Noted, thanks.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 11:34 am
Am so glad for the consideration upon treatment!

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 11:38 am
I emailed the hospital that is going to do the surgery to see if they knew where we could donate. They replied back that they have no idea. I've contacted the newpapers who have done stories on Kabang to see if they could point me in the right direction. I haven't heard from them so far.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 11:41 am
Thank you dear Barb...didn't go to the news since you said it was graphic! That Unconditional Love is unbelievable. Our Animals give so much.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 12:05 pm
Thanks Barb ! I didn't watch the graphic photo it's more than I can bear I think. But what a story ! I do believe animals are superior to human beings in every way even if some of us are good of course. This dog is more than a hero he is the living proof dogs have a strong sense of good, generosity, empathy and love.
Wish him a quick recovery and above all happiness.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 12:09 pm

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 1:12 pm
Dogs are so awesome. They prove it daily. Bless her and i hope she gets the help she deserves. Shes a canine heroine! I was sent another story about her and it had pics of her feeding some puppies..Maybe she was in total Mommy protective mode? Bless her and her family. Glad the girls were ok too.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 2:34 pm
Amazing dog.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 3:06 pm
I wish this great dog the very best.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 5:32 pm
This touches our hearts and I hope we can stay with her story as she recovers. Hope her healing goes smoothly and as painlessly as possible.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 6:28 pm
Truely a brave dog I wish and pray for his full recovery and reconstruction of his mussel.

Tuesday July 31, 2012, 9:29 pm
If I were subjected to such horrific pain and suffering, I would want to be euthanized, not wait months for possible corrective (and painful) surgery. Really, would you want to endure having bones crushed and your face ripped off, and waiting months for treatment? I hope she was given powerful painkillers. Eating and drinking must be an unpleasant chore for her. And now pregnant as well? I want to save any injured being, but this dog may be suffering beyond reason.

Wednesday August 8, 2012, 7:28 pm
Yes, now here's a hero of more than your average courage! Another reason to love animals. Sending love and light for successful healing...a long life tp you Kabang. Thanx Barb

Wednesday August 15, 2012, 6:47 am
Finding out how to donate has been unsuccessful so far. I can't get anyone to email me back that knows anything if they'll even email me back at all. There is a new story that was done about her at Examiner at this link: http://www.examiner.com/article/heroic-miracle-dog-still-alive-and-waiting-for-reconstructive-surgery?CID=examiner_alerts_article

Sorry, I don't know how to make links active.

Wednesday August 15, 2012, 7:02 am
Actually now that I've read the Examiner story again, It states that fundraising efforts are currently underway for this miracle survivor. As soon as funds have been established to help make this dream a reality, updates will be posted. Therefore I suppose that there isn't a fund yet. I can't imagine why it's taking so long. She was injured months ago!

Thursday August 23, 2012, 10:51 am
Kabang is just proof that dogs really love their owners more than they love themselves. God, please provide the fiinances for Kabang's surgery & that it will be successful.

Wednesday September 19, 2012, 9:59 am
As of September 14, 2012, Care For Kabang has reached its fundraising goal of $20,000. Any additional money raised beyond this will be used for unexpected medical expenses incurred at UC Davis and for Kabang’s future health care needs. It is important to understand that medical estimates are an attempt to predict the course of Kabang’s care and represent an APPROXIMATION of the cost to provide care based on her described condition at this time. However, the actual cost may vary due to changes in Kabang’s condition. Therefore, additional donations may be needed.
