Human Pacemakers Offer Hope to Ailing Dogs
Date:2/6/2010

Acres, quickly bounced back and is now full of energy.

As director of a no-kill sanctuary, Mager said she doesn't believe in euthanizing animals for treatable health conditions. In fact, a few months before receiving the pacemaker, Guiedo underwent knee replacement surgery.

She said the nearly $5,000 spent on the hound's medical fees was worth every penny.

"What an amazing thing to do with the money -- to give life," said Mager.

More information

There's more on pacemakers at the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.
