SACRAMENTO, CA -- A Sacramento pug rescue group is reaching out to animal lovers in hopes of providing a much needed surgery for one of their precious pugs.  

Eight year-old Mija (Mee-ha) is a playful pug who loves to snuggle. She was rescued by PugSavers, a Northern California pug rescue group, after her owner, who loved her dearly couldn't afford special care for her diabetes. Mija's foster family has been taking great care of her until she finds her forever home, but recently her condition has worsened causing blindness in both of her eyes. 

It has been recommended by a specialist that both of Mija's eyes be removed to help with her diabetes and alleviate what has now become a painful condition.

Callie was thrown in a grocery store dumpster at the corner of Stockton Blvd. and Fruitridge Rd.  A city animal control officer pulled her out of the trash bin and brought her to the shelter at 2127 Front St.  She'd recently had a litter of puppies, but they weren't with her.  She is now up for adoption, and she is looking for a loving forever home.

Join Chako and the City of Sacramento Animal Care services for a fun night in support of these two local organizations. Bid on items in their silent auction, mingle with other dog lovers, enjoy a glass of wine, and sample a few new tastes. This is a night for us humans to relax and have fun, so please leave your pets at home.

When: Fri., Mar.
