From the Heart Animal Rescue

Our mission is to serve the underserved -- the abandoned, orphaned, abused, injured and special needs

With unbounded love and an intense dedication to those unwanted by others, FTH works hard to give chances to dogs which other rescues and humane societies do not. Dogs are given individual attention in a loving foster home while recovering physically or emotionally from their previous lives. Our volunteers then work diligently to find a loving, thoroughly screened forever home, where they will get

the second chance they deserve, enhacing both their lives and those of their new humans. There are many rescues and humane societies which take adoptable animals … but so many times, animals are left behind because they may need extra care (medical or emotional) before they become adoptable. That’s where From The Heart comes in … From The Heart is a coalition of experienced volunteers, dedicated to caring for the hurt and frightened victims of accident, disease, cruelty and neglect. We provide life-saving surgeries, medications and special care that other organizations are not able or willing to give. Once restored to health, we then work diligently to find each animal a permanent loving home.

T***s wants everyone to know she's feeling SO much better.

We wanted to say "thank you"! Because of your donations, more than half of her urgent care bill has been paid.

T***s is looking for her forever home. She is around 8 years old and a fantastic little dog. She is housetrained for a doggy door. More of a snuggler than playful. She will try to push you out of the way so she can bury her nose behind you on the couch. T***s loves to bask in the sunshine in the morning, so she would like a backyard but it's not a deal breaker. She is an early riser, so sleepy heads may not be the best match. Mainly, she's just looking for breakfast and then is willing to go back to bed.

T***s is now on a lifelong medication. It costs around $30 for a 90-day supply. If this is an expense you can handle in addition to normal doggie care and think T***s would be the best couch potato buddy, please visit our website and fill out an adoption application.

Well folks, we've had our first urgent care visit of the year.

Last night, T***s decided to give her foster mom a good scare. After work, T***s met her mom at the front door as usual and ran to her kennel because she knows dinner is on its way. After dinner was served, foster mom went to the kitchen to get everyone's meds (in a home full of senior dogs, almost everyone is taking some kind of medicine). Less than 10 minutes later when foster mom returned to the living room, T***s was almost unresponsive in her kennel.

Foster mom immediately checked her gums, and they were very pale. Her eyes were slow to respond to light and she would not stand up at all. Foster mom grabbed T***s and rushed to the Westside Urgent Care. A tech met her at the desk and rushed T***s to the back. As always thank you to the wonderful staff at the urgent care center.

After running blood work and doing an ultrasound, the Dr. came into the room to explain that T***s' gallbladder was "sludge-y". Medically known as Gallbladder Mucoceles. A mucocele is an accumulation of mucus in the gallbladder that causes the gallbladder to stretch and become larger than normal. And just like in humans, gallbladder problems can be extremely painful.

After some pain meds and fluids T***s was discharged. She will now need to be on a medication to help keep her gallbladder healthy. T***s is back home resting and getting extra snuggles.

We were able to pay with a credit card last night but soon that bill will be due. If you would like to donate and help pay for T***s' urgent care visit, please visit our website or click below.

ATTENTION!!
It has been reported that a microchip company, Save This Life, has ceased operations and unlinked their database from the national registries.

What does this mean for you? If your pet was microchipped with a chip from "Save This Life" and were to become lost, there is no way to find your information and reunite you with your pet.

What should you do? Find your pets microchip number, your vet clinic can scan it for free and reregister the chip with one of the other databases. We recommend either 24PetWatch or HomeAgain.

You can use https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-search/ to look up the microchip number to see which database it is registered with. Once you find who the microchip is registered with, you can call them and check to be sure your contact information is correct.

Only 6 in 10 microchips is actually registered with the correct contact information. So many times, we have a found pet that is chipped with no way to get the pet home because either the information is outdated, or it isn't registered at all. Even if you believe your pets are registered and have correct contact numbers, please double check. Also ask if you can add an emergency contact in the event you are unable to pick up your found pet.

Contribution statements were emailed last night. If you made a donation to From the Heart last year, please note that you received yours. Be sure to check the Junk folder. If you did not receive yours, please send us a message so we can update your contact information.

Thank you to everyone who donated last year. The ONLY reason we can rescue is because of your generosity. ❤️

Kuna was picked up as a stray and when the shelter scanned her, they found a microchip. But no one answered at any of the contact information. (PLEASE, PLEASE keep your contact information updated on your pets! The microchip does no good if you can't be contacted.) According to the information attached to the chip, she was a week from turning 17!

Now a loud shelter environment is no place for any pet but certainly not a super senior. Thankfully one of our amazing fosters stepped up to get her out of the shelter.

Of course, first order of business was to get her groomed. Thank you to the amazing staff at Spa for Paws for always giving our pups wonderful care and service.

Next up, vet visit! While her mouth was pretty rotten and she has cataracts, Kuna was healthy overall. Once it was confirmed she could handle anesthesia, we got her scheduled for the first available dental cleaning. (One more soapbox. When your pets get old, please continue their health care. Old age is not a disease. So many times, we hear a pet is "too old" to have a dental or procedure. And while that may SOMETIMES be true, most pets with proper blood work can be cleared for anesthesia and procedures. If you have a vet that is not confident in doing procedures on elderly pets, please find one that is. It is so important to their longevity just like it is ours.)

Unfortunately, she seems to not be housebroken but some doggie diapers and she is good to go. Kuna has surprised her foster family with how active she is. While she does have cataracts, she still has enough vision get around the house and yard. She loves to be loved on and snuggled.

We want to say THANK YOU to everyone who came by the store or shopped online during our fundraiser at Kendra Scott before Christmas. Because of you, we raised just under $2000! That is one less vet bill we have to worry about finding funds for. Thank you.

To whoever is randomly purchasing us these gift cards, THANK YOU!! from the bottom of our heart. ❤️❤️

If you have not yet seen the weather report for this week, El Paso, along with much of the country, is slated to get some below freezing temperatures with a very good chance of snow. Please make sure your pets are inside especially during the overnight hours. It will get cold enough to be life threatening for your pets. The overnight temps will be below freezing for the entire week. Take precautions!
