Redstone Husky Rescue

Redstone Husky Rescue We are a 501c3 approved organization that provides quality care to Texas Working Breeds for adoption. All Redstone dogs are treated like our family. Thank you!

When you donate to Redstone every penny of that money donated into the rescue bank account goes toward care of the dogs. The board does this completely on a "volunteer" basis and is not, and never will be, paid with donor money. We provide the care we would want for our own pets and strive to make their lives as stress free and happy as possible while they wait for their forever homes to find them

. We are a Fear Free focused rescue and adopt several low stress method of handling and adjustment. Whether that is calming pheromones, stress jackets, music, lighting or other methods, we cater to any dog's need as best we can. We cannot make this happen without community support. If you would like to foster, adopt, or donate, please visit RedstoneHuskyRescue.org.

Charlie has a recheck appointment coming up, and he will have another at 8 weeks post-op before he is cleared for heartworm treatment. He's still got a long road ahead, but we are swinging for the fences for this (not so) little guy to have the best chance at a recovered life.

Together I know we can change Charlie's whole world for the better!

Charlie had surgery yesterday. He stayed overnight for pain control, and has only just recently arrived back home to us here at Redstone. We will be monitoring him closely and very hands-on with his every need.

We opted to go with a lateral suture to help stabilize his joint instead of a full TPLO. I personally have had patients that have had very poor recoveries with them in the past, and my gut was telling me not to take that chance with Charlie. I know this may not be the decision that everyone would have made, but I had to listen to that intuition.

Both of his knees were done yesterday to limit the number of times he has to undergo anesthesia. Again, this was a calculated and heavily discussed decision. I have worked with surgeons in the past that preferred to do this, and I hate to prolong his access to heartworm treatment or run the risk of further damaging the knee that wouldn't have been repaired by putting a heavy strain on it.

In all, Charlie's case has been one extremely difficult decision after the other, but as long as he has good quality of life in the end that is what truly matters.

Charlie's total for surgery yesterday was $3,715.58 - we have raised just a little over $1000 on Cuddly for his care and we have raised a portion on previous posts, but we have not raised enough to fully cover the cost. He still needs to undergo heartworm treatment with us as well which will be an additional $675 for his weight class.

I will be doing cold laser therapy and ice thearpy as well as physical rehabilitation with Charlie over the next several weeks.

We want to extend our thanks to Balch Springs Animal Services & Adoption Center for trusting us with both Charlie's care and Chocolate's given their extreme circumstances and needs.

Hi everyone,

We got Charlie's updated estimate. They will do both knees at once and neuter him to limit anesthesia. Sadly, there is no "most ideal option" for him. Given that the most dangerous part of anesthesia is induction and waking up, we are strongly considering going this route. Yes, it's a big pricetag all at once, but I believe it is the best thing for Charlie.

Reminder that Charlie is heartworm positive, and stressing his heart with waking up from anesthesia multiple times increases risks.

We haven't done a ton this year, but for Charlie this could be live-saving. We are still in a HUGE negative from the litter of puppies that got dumped on us (all are now happily placed in homes in WA) and trying to recover from that unexpected hit to the bank.

Charlie deserves this. He deserves this chance.

It's no secret that Texas is in an animal welfare crisis. There are a lot of nuanced conversations to be had about the ethics in animal welfare, which is a topic I am very passionate about, but that is how these girls landed here.

A small rural shelter is overrun, and they were surrendered for owner requested euthanasia due to a housing issue. We're not going to talk about housing and pets right now. The original owner's circumstances are none of anyone's business, and with the world feeling like it is falling apart, that's not the topic to be had here.

Instead, I'll leave it brief. The shelter asked if we could give the girls a shot, otherwise they would be euthanized for space quickly. With a few runs open, knowing that both dog were friendly and would not require much in the way of wellness care to get them to an adoptable status, we agreed to come pick them up.

Introducing out LAST intakes for Redstone until we have adoptions: Sasha and Cleo.

These girls are littermates and once their quarantine is completed we will be splitting them up. Either one will stay in the new kennel building and one in the old building, or they will be on opposite sides. Regardless of where we house them, they have to be separated in different play groups.

Littermate Syndrome is no joke, and at nearly 9 months old these girls should have been separated months ago. We are seeing some signs of potential issues if they remain together. Not all littermates end up with LMS, but it is a significant concern.

The girls will need to be spayed and they need a rabies vaccine. They have their other core vaccines, we have dewormed them, they have been microchipped, and they are starting heartworm/flea/tick prevention. Once they are spayed in mid September, they will be up for adoption to SEPARATE homes.

We cannot stress this enough, these girls will not be adopted to the same home. They need separated to truly thrive.

Guess who got spayed on Tuesday! There was a cancellation, and after discussing her weight gain with other professionals it was determined she was safe to undergo surgery. She has been gaining steadily, and she will be on cage rest for recovery and it'll help her retain more calories with less activity over the next two weeks.

We plan to list her for adoption tomorrow as she is otherwise perfectly healthy. She can continue to gain weight while we screen homes for her as easily as she can gain without being open for applications.

Her surgery and pain medication came to $90 (see invoice pictured below).

Little Chocolate loves other dogs, she is bright and chipper energy and she LOVES to play fetch! If you know anyone looking for a little bundle of love, please let them know to look for Chocolate on our website this weekend via RedstoneHuskyRescue.org/adopt !

****WE ARE CLOSED FOR INTAKE****

This is a difficult decision for every rescue to reach, but Redstone Husky Rescue is CLOSED for intake until some of our dogs are adopted out. We had two emergency intakes yesterday (more information to come) and we will not be taking more until we have adoptions.

Not a single adoption application in months. It is extremely hard to ethically place huskies right now. We are honest about our dogs. I always tell the good, the bad, and the ugly. All of these dogs have some kind of issue or another that will have to be worked through. Not a single one is a clean slate. That doesn't mean that they aren't good companions!

If you would like to help us place some of our dogs, please go to our adoptable dogs album and share, share, share! We adopt all over the country with transport.

Featured below:
Ruthie - adult female - super bubbly personality with an AMAZING 'off switch' where she can lounge and hang out.
Nelson - high energy, very sweet boy, great for other dogs that need a playmate.
Kimmy - senior female, low energy, velcro dog.
Gordon - super sweet adult male, great with female dogs, very low energy.

Please visit RedstoneHuskyRescue.org/adopt for our full adoptable roster!

Bad news for Charlie today. Both of his CCLs (the dog's ACL) are completely blown out. He needs surgery on at least one, ideally both. This is a pricy procedure. Not to mention we have to balance pain control with heartworm treatment and surgery. It's going to be a balancing act miles in the sky on a tightrope over spikes with no net it feels like right now.... The cost alone is daunting.

He is so sweet, and he has so much love to give, we have to come up with a plan to figure out how we can make this happen for him.

Below is our invoice from today for diagnostics and starting his doxycyline for his heartworm treatment. We are also starting him on Purina Joint Care chews as well.

I usually come to you guys with an update and a plan of action, but right now my heart is broken, I'm holdig him while I am in tears, and I feel lost and devastated. Charlie is young, he is kind, and he didn't deserve any of this to happen to him. I don't know how to look at him and ask him to endure more with the promise of a happily ever after. He doesn't understand that good days are yet to come. Dogs live in the moment, in the now. His "now" is going to be such a long road, but I can't bring myself to believe that he is unhappy or in undue suffering.

I promise to update with a plan as soon as I settle on something. I just simply don't know what path is the right one to take right now. My heart hurts and it feels like a dark day for rescue.

Puppies arrived safely in Washington late last night! They played in a big yard, met some new friends, and are getting so much love and security with our good friends over at Because We Matter! If you would like to continue to follow their journey in real time, please give her a follow! She does incredible work for both domestic and wild species and she is a treasure to the rescue industry.

We will be sharing updates as we can as well!

This is such an important message.

We didn't do what we did to help Bee Pawsitive Animal Rescue for thanks or to make ourselves look good. We did it because we wanted to help. We did it because it was the right thing to do. Most of all, we did it because we love Candi as a dear friend.

You guys know that I always seek to lead by example, to be the change I want to see in the rescue industry as well as show that this life doesn't have to be so damn hard if we just help each other and care about each other rather than fighting over resources and acting cut throat (yes, it happens multiple times a day every day).

When our friends in rescue are reaching out for help, we will always reach back and offer anything we possibly can.

We can save the world for one dog at a time together faster than we can save the whole world by ourselves.

It was an honor to assist BPAR in their time of need, and it was (mostly) a pleasure to have our four little extended campers here at Redstone to give them breathing room. I am thrilled that there are prospects for homes and that we were able to help give time to breathe and allow BPAR the ability to see the rescue journey for each dog through.

What a night. Phew! We packed up at 9pm last night to head for Madisonville to get the puppies to transport. They were loaded up at approximately 11:45pm and on their way!
I got home around 1:15am and needed to sleep in (hence the late update).

We cannot thank Because We Matter enough for their support and help in this case and Critters & Co for being willing to take these guys in and help them find new homes. This is how rescue should be done! Helping each other rather than watching each other drown.
