And here is another Street Car dog Karl. Having fun!
We had a lot of adoptions today! Lots of pups went to some amazing homes. And we are already receiving pupdates. Check this one out of Lucy, previously Carrie in her new home. If you recall, their dog Stella was sad from recently losing her Lab friend Roxy. Well look how much fun she's having with her new little sis, Lucy. Puppy therapy at its best! ♥️🐾

Check out our man Mannie! He's walking like a champ! Big thanks to Dr. Colton at Central Oregon Animal Hospital for repairing this boy's leg!
As you can see from his x-rays (see posts in comments), Mannie's original surgery to fix his broken leg failed and he was in a lot of pain. Thankfully we were able to have Dr. Colton do the repair at a discounted rate, but we still need to raise money to cover these costs. Can you help? Please donate here or visit our website herduneededahome.com/donate and let us know it's for Mannie!
Update - Mannie is continuing to recover in foster care today. He is doing quite well and is in good spirits! You can make a donation at herduneededahome.com/donate or by sending a check to PO Box 7950 Bend OR 97708! Thank you!
Handsome Mannie came to us from an overcrowded shelter in Alturas CA. Mannie had previously undergone surgery to repair a broken leg, but unfortunately we could tell that the leg was still causing him a lot of pain.
Dr. Colton at Central Oregon Animal Hospital was concerned that without an additional corrective surgery, Mannie could lose his leg altogether.
As with all HUNAH dogs, we wanted to ensure that Mannie had the best possible start to his new life, so despite the $2800 price tag, we opted to do the surgery which would hopefully save his leg.
Mannie went under the knife yesterday and we are happy to report that it was a success! You can see the difference in the x-rays - the bottom photo is pre-surgery, and the top is post surgery! Much better! Mannie will be available for adoption soon, so keep an eye on our page and we'll let you know when he's ready to go home for good!
We are so grateful to Dr. Colton and Central Oregon Animal Hospital for performing this surgery on Mannie's leg at a discounted rate. However, this surgery still cost $2800 which is not in HUNAH's budget.
We are hoping to get some help from our friends to raise the money to cover the cost of Mannie's surgery. Can you help by making a small donation? Without you we could not say yes to dogs like Mannie. Please help us continue to help more dogs like him!
OSA is a 7 month old full of energy little girl, who has been spayed and is up to dates on her shots.
She LOVES water!
Loves people however, probably ages 10 and up is best.
Loves other dogs of any size,
She chases the ball, this girl can jump,
She is quite the sweetheart!
I don’t know if she gets along with cats, she doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body if anything OSA would think it was a playmate! L

Wendy
Thank you everyone. Wendy has a foster home and two lined up if that one falls through. We really appreciate you sharing her post! And stepping up to help.
Meet Wendy... Looking for transport from the Bend, Or to Spokane, Wa. is anyone heading that direction?
Pictures are in the comments
Wendy has only been with HUNAH for 3 days. She was seized from a neglect case along with several other dogs. To ensure Wendy can fully recover we are asking for a quiet foster home and/or sponsor for her. Flora has been hand feeding her. She is 1-2 years old female BC mix.. Very good with other dogs and people! She weighs about 19lbs and is about 20lbs under weight.
Allie
She's such a good farm dog :)
Sweet Roper is making her way to HUNAH so she can find her forever home! This is one of our volunteers experience helping out with a transport!
We are always in need of more volunteers. Please message us if you have any interest!
Here is an update on "Lexi". She is still in a lot of pain. Lexi can walk on soft grassy areas for short potty walks with some discomfort as seen here in the video. When the pain becomes unbearable she lays on her back for a belly rub. The rest of the time she enjoys laying in her soft bed. She is the kindest, sweetest girl ever! Thank you for all of your prayers, support and help. We will keep you updated with her progress. I am keeping my paws crossed that she has no lasting affects from this whole ordeal.
(Original post is below if you are interested in reading her story)
I may never understand people, but I will alwaz understand a dog. Maybe it is because we understand one another. What I can never fathom is people who hurt animals. There is a ring of bad people who think it is fun to hunt down dogs in Idaho and shoot them for fun. They steal dogs out of back yards or get them off of craigslist. After they take these dogs they paint colors on them. The dogs are turned loose in different areas. A particular color means a certain amount of money they win for shooting the dog. It is a sick game. The dogs run for their lives. Most never survive, but one did. Meet "Lexi." She ran so hard and fast she ran the pads off of her paws until they were bloody raw. Then she hid. A kind person found her terribly thin, alone, afraid and unable to stand. They took her to the shelter where the staff carried her to and fro. After a potty out on the lawn she carried Lexi back to a bed near her office desk. She did this for weeks before sending Lexi to Hunah. Her feet are still very raw and in rough shape. It is amazing how sweet and accepting of humans Lexi is. Even after everything she has been through her heart of gold is as beautiful as her coloring. It will be another two weeks before Lexi can walk without pain. If you are interested in sponsoring, donating for her care or adopting Lexi, please go to www.herduneededahome.com to fill out an application. Located in SE Oregon.
It looks like little resilient Mary is quite content with her new life.
