Our foster homes are our most precious commodity. They are the lifeblood of the rescue. Foster homes do come and go with some regularity. Some families need a break once their foster has been adopted, some families keep the dog(s) and can't take on anymore dogs, some abruptly just decide to no longer foster and dump the dog back into our care leaving us scrambling to find another home for the dog. It's all just the nature of the beast with organizations that are all-volunteer.

We have a small handful of "sanctuary" foster homes. These are homes that have take on a number of "unadoptable" dogs and plan to care for them until it is time to say goodbye. As a "special needs" rescue, these sanctuary homes are crucial to our mission. When one of those homes goes down, it is a crisis.

Unfortunately, we are in such a crisis at this time. Due to some significant medical issues, one of our primary sanctuary homes is no longer able to care for 5-6 of our dogs that were under their care and we need to rehome them ASAP (or unfortunately make some difficult decisions). Our long term followers / supporters will recognize most of these dogs (as the dogs have been with us for a long time).

Here is a list of the dogs that we need to rehome:

Mary Lou - 5 years old. A Frenchie with no use of her back legs, she is incontinent and on medication for allergies.

Llew - 12 years old. A Corgi mix that came to us with no use of his back legs. We got him mobile again, but he is also incontinent and on a special urinary diet. (Male incontinence is little easier to manage with a belly wrap, and simply picking up the p**p when it occurs.)
https://www.nobodysperfektdogs.org/available-dogs #/llew-special-needs

Charlie - 2 years old. Maybe Papillon / Chihuahua mix. Has a deformed spine, that left him with no real use of his back legs (but he can sometimes walk with them). He is also incontinent.

Toto - 10 years old. Maybe Yorkie/Chihuahua mix? He has heart disease and is on medication. We've never been able to safely handle him.

Laverne - 8 years old. Terrier mix. Brought to the Oakland Shelter with another dog assumed to be her sister, Shirley. They were very bonded. My biggest regret is that we ended up having to separate them because we couldn't find a foster home with room for both of them. They have been separated for 4 years. Shirley is in another foster home that doesn't have room for Laverne. I would love to take this "opportunity" to maybe reunite them in a new foster home. Both dogs are still pretty insecure. They don't go on walks, they are housebroken, but they aren't too interested in interacting with people (but maybe that is because they are in homes with lots of other dogs). If they could be the only 2 dogs in the home, they may bond with the humans in the home.

If anyone reading this lengthy post is able to help us with these dogs PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE reach out. We take care of supplies, and vet expenses. This is definitely a crisis, and we may have no choice but to euthanize the dogs we are unable to rehome. That would be a double tragedy for the foster family that can no longer care for them.

The 2 new rescue dogs came through our adoption center today: Marsh Mellow (the bully breed) and Goose (now Cyrus) a senior chihuahua. We think we have secured a foster home for Marsh Mellow (and hopefully soon- a new name). Cyrus went to his foster home this evening. Marsh’s demodex is looking better, but it will take a while for the fur to grow back. We are pretty sure that he is not a French Bulldog mix. He is more likely an American Bully XL, just without the muscle mass (nor the cropped ears). He is young, playful and sweet. The other non-bully breeds that hang out in the adoption center during the day aren’t too sure about him, but the English and French Bulldogs were comfortable around him. We are hoping to get him neutered on Thursday. The structure of his front legs (bowed) is a little concerning. It may cause him problems down the road.

Cyrus has a large mass on the side of his head, and a heart murmur (and kennel cough). He is scheduled to see the vet tomorrow. He is very low key and sweet. His coat is super soft and a little on the fluffy side. He is estimated to be around 14 years old.

One of our partner shelters reached out to us about a dog needing a medical rescue. Originally, we said “no” because we didn’t have any room in our foster homes. Then we got an application for a foster home. I talked to them about the dog and they agreed to foster him, so we committed to the shelter to rescue it.

Then at the last minute the family bailed on us for fostering. The dog is coming tomorrow and we have no where for him to go.

Here is an update on Bobby’s surgery. It was decided to do an FHO surgery rather than amputation. However, the procedure had a lot of complications. We were concerned that we may have waited too long to do the surgery, that too much healing had already taken place. There were scheduling challenges, then equipment issues requiring rescheduling. The surgeon had trouble getting to the ball of the femur to remove it as it was buried under bone fragments that were starting to fuse with the growth of fibrous tissue.

He was in a lot of pain and he isn’t using that leg at all at this point. His recovery will likely take a very long time, and we just have to hope it will get better. He is recuperating in a foster home.

Grayson (whose new name is "Squash") found his forever home. He has a new big sister (whose name is NOT "Melon" or "Pumpkin" but "Goose"), and a couple of feline siblings that are not in the photo.

Congratulations to the his new family!

Urgent foster home needed.

We are pulling a small female French Bulldog from a shelter that was hit by a car. Our vet will be examining her today. Most of the injuries look superficial, but some of her teeth look broken and there maybe a hip issue (but she is pretty mobile and getting better each day). The vet will do x-rays to be sure. The shelter has her at just 8 lbs. (which if the weight is accurate, makes her pretty small for a Frenchie, but she may also be underweight).

If you can foster her, please let us know ASAP.

Love is in the air in the cat room of our adoption center!

Full disclosure: the two cats in the passionate embrace are Neville and Rusty. Get over it folks, love is love.

Update on Bobby the young maybe Beagle mix(?):

He is scheduled to have surgery tomorrow after 5 weeks of torturous, grueling, strict cage rest. He is young dog, that would love to be romping around playing with anything that moves. We couldn't find a foster home for him, so he has had to spend these 5 weeks in our adoption center surrounded by other active, playful dogs. We had to resort to heavy sedation to give him (and the volunteers) a break for constant frustration barking.

We still don't know what type of surgery he will have. The vet will do new x-rays of his hip to see the current formation of the fractured pelvic bones. He is still somewhat using the bad leg. We may try and save the leg by doing an FHO on the ball of the femur of the impacted leg to relieve any pain. Or we may decide to just amputate the leg altogether. We are conflicted about what decision to make, if we have a choice. If he has the FHO surgery, his recovery will mean more weeks of strict cage rest, more sedation, more frustration for everyone involved, etc.

It would be nice to find a foster home for him, but our pleas went unanswered before when we asked, so . . .
