Thank you to everyone who helped make it possible for him to have the surgery & a normal healthy life//Tina

We’re accepting applications for Chappo. He is an awesome 5-6 month old puppy who is crate & doggy door trained. He’d be great for an active retiree or a family with children over 10yrs old. No large dogs or cats. Chappo loves running & playing with other small playful dogs, then napping in the sunshine. This lap warmer is projected to weigh around 10lbs fully grown. Fully vetted, neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, heartworm prevention started & microchipped//Tina

I just wanted to update on Stormie. She was scheduled for surgery yesterday with Dr Newcomb, however he had an emergency come in (dog w/broken back), so we were rescheduled for next week. She’s doing great, hilarious to watch play & growl at the ghosts….she LOVES Trinket. She will definitely make a precious companion for a very lucky person/family.//Tina

Look who’s been released & walking…very wobbly, but walking. Her eyes are still dull & blank. I set up the crib for her, so she’s comfortable….but cowers & really doesn’t make eye contact. It will take time & patience, but I think once she feels safe, she’ll bloom into a beautiful flower. When she’s feeling better I’ll have to have her clipped super short/shaved, she is matted to the bone. Please continue with healing energy/prayer that she has a quick recovery//Tina

🐾NOT AVAILABLE at this time🐾

I’ve been so worried about Lala this past week, I completely forgot to tell you about Stormie! This little girl has one leg that is completely non functional. Two vets have looked at her leg, both referring us elsewhere. So we will try to schedule appt for this coming week. Stormie is a hot mess, in a good way…only 6 months old, she’s full of herself, hoarding & beating up toys. Apparently she barks/growls at ghosts, because no else sees or hears anything! I’ll update along the way//Tina

I don’t have a new picture…this was the other day. Princess Lala (laa laa) is still in the hospital, there’s been little change or improvement. She’s alert, her eyes will follow, but she still can’t stand/walk, electrolytes are still off and now some intestinal issues. If you know me, you know we don’t give up…as long as she fights, we will too. Please continue to send prayers/healing energy//Tina

Sassy Sue was adopted last week & is loving her new life! She has “mom” all to herself…we always felt she’d be happiest as an only child. She’s living in a retirement community with a beautiful dog park & lots of dog friendly activities for her to participate in. Apparently she has a blast cruising to the dog park in her basket on the motorized scooter (video in comments) I can’t tell you how happy we are when seniors adopt an older dog to love & comfort each other as they both age. Have fun Sassy, we love you! Thank you Karen!//Tina

Will you down size your lunch today to help Lala? $5, $20, any amount helps so much and greatly appreciated…every penny goes to the direct care of the dogs, we have NO paid staff. Please help us today. Lala is a tiny 5lb, 1 yr old who deserves a chance to live her best life//Tina

Here’s a quick update on Cesar, the pup that required emergency surgery for a blockage. He was slow to recover, but is now eating & pottying normally & becoming more active. He’s super skinny and needs some fattening up, but all in all he’s doing great. He sees our vet tomorrow to start vaccinations, h/w test & get a neuter scheduled. He’s a sweet & very social little guy//Tina

Tippy went to her new home over the weekend. She’s doing really well & I’m told she’s a perfect fit for the family. Tippy has both two and four legged siblings & a mom that is awesome. I always felt that if Tippy was given a chance in a quiet home she’d bloom…who knew it would be so quick! We love you baby girl…your best life is just beginning//Tina

Tippy has an approved application/home and no longer available!😊

It’s mind boggling that there’s been no serious interest in little Tippy. She is skittish at first, but if you’re a chihuahua person, you know this is pretty typical…happiest being a lap dog. She’s under 5lbs, 3-4 yrs old, spayed, vaccs, h/w test/preventative, blood work, dental and microchip//Tina

Look who has been released from the hospital! Cesar is resting comfortably with pain meds. I set the play pen/crib up in my home office since it’s quiet. He has some swelling, but is able to have messy bowel movements without much effort. We were worried for a while, but it looks like he’s going to be just fine. Once he’s fully recovered we’ll have him neutered, vaccinated, h/w tested, microchipped & any other procedure deemed necessary. Thank you for the support & prayers.//Tina

ETA new pictures & info. There is some fluid building in lower abdomen. The vets are concerned about us being so far away from emergency vet care, that it would be best to leave him another day. How adorable is this little face. We appreciate the donations & prayers for his surgery/recovery.

This is Cesar (I don’t have a good picture). I was contacted two days ago about a possible bowel obstruction. Severely dehydrated & underweight, he had not been eating or drinking…the X-rays showed something, but it could not be determined if it was an object or impacted f***l matter….turned out to be both. Please throw away the rubber toys, this is the second dog (Piper) in recent months that required emergency surgery to save their life because of rubber. He came through surgery uneventfully, when I was updated by vet earlier this morning, he said Cesar has been weened off injectable meds & is now taking oral meds, he’s being hand fed & now just needs positive, healing energy & rest. I’ve asked for a lot lately & so many have donated, but if you can help us with even $5, please do. The estimate for surgery alone is $2500-$4100. Good juju is also appreciated//Tina

Trinket says THANK YOU for helping him! He may look like a dirty mop right now, but he has been released & feeling pretty darn good. Funny story, I was told Trinket was a female…surprise! Once he’s 100%, I’ll have him groomed, I’ll probably shave him down in the meanwhile….he’s matted. He’s going to a doll, he’s so cute & super sweet//Tina
