48th straight hours freezing to death in Montura with no sleep whatsoever other than coming home to let let the dogs out one time yesterday morning at 4am & sleep for exactly 60 minutes & head back out (1.6 hours away). So far we got 3 of the 5 pupperonies. Mama was frantic on camera looking for them at first but has not associated the trap with the "missing" 3 puppies so she's still coming to eat & brought one of them to the trap but that one didnt go in. So she's physically picking up one of the the large pans & taking it to the other 2 pups that live on the other side of the street deep in the woods. We just arrived home at 6:30 a.m. after sleeping 60 minutes yesterday & leaving to head back at 6:00 a.m. . My poor 9 dogs went 24 hours straight but did fine :( ! Lol But thanks to Michelle Miner the baby puppies are bathed, flea & tick medded (inFESTED) & I learned the hard way you can't give young puppies much food or water or they are real life Pez dispensers of π©. I've never seen or so much π© in my entire life
see what Mamas schedule does now that she doesn't find the missing puppies & then head out to get the last 2 pups, mama & Big Daddy.

Hold on little babies. We're tryin
We went to Montura last night just to finish putting the trap together. We only had the shell up to condition them so we added the door, electronics & relocated the camera. We werent intending on trapping last night because we need the puppies first & they became "overnighters" this week & we can only do overnights on Thursdays or Fridays. We wanted the trap ready for tonight without having to be in there makin noise. The INSTANT we left, we weren't even down the road & mama was already there checkin out the changes. Apparently she didn't like all the food & now water in the very back so she dumped one of the large full pans, brought it out & strategically placed it out for us to fill outside the trap π This morning we realized why she doesn't want her babies going in there. :( We always know theyre there,but it hits different when they're on camera exactly where you're luring 4 pound, barely 6 week old babies. This cat was strolling up AS mama was inside the trap. She heard him & bolted out 39 seconds before he circled the trap. πππ© Hold tight little, Homies.We know youre freezing.Just a couple more nights. We're workin as fast as we can with you being sooooo far away from usππ π
#ChasinTail
How MANY PUPPIES are there ? πππ© it's about to be 47Β° tonight. We're still trying to get them to go to the back of the Trap & they're so young that they're still nursing but weaning off so they're not desperate for food.
UGHHHH!!!

UP NEXT. *(Disclaimer* Don't die of a heart attack when you see how cute these little boogers are*)
This mama's had litter after litter after litter. The feeder has fed her here for over 2 years & was always able to find the babies based on where Mama went. This time she couldn't. Now they're approximately 6 weeks old (?) running around & weaning off of her which is very scary because all they know is "woods life" right now. We HAVE to get these teeny tiny, itty bitty, cutie patooties & their courageous mama & daddy out of this dangerous woods. It's a very dangerous area & we need help! As far as we know mom & dad are both feral but, the last 2 feral mamas plus Cujo, who we trapped are the sweetest most lovable bugs on the face of the earth.
The feeder needs dog food. Who can ship a bag to

With a very heavy heart, the Chasin' tail in SWFL "Unleashed" " team & With Love for the Animals Rescue must make an agonizing announcement regarding the brindle mama dog "Demi" we at Chasin Tail, trapped last week. If youve followed the story, you know she spent 9 years outside, giving birth during every heat cycle, abused & shot by the public & obviously never vetted.Thanksgiving Eve, at midnight, we drove her to rescue in West Palm Beach after trapping her. For the first time, she was going to get to have her babies inside, surrounded by love & human compassion. However, she's been having much discharge so Tuesday was taken to the emergency vet where they found 6-7 puppy Heartbeats. The discharge got worse. Today, she was taken back to the vet where it was confirmed she's got heartworm disease-which we 100% expected. It was then found that one puppy died inside of her from lack of nutrition & food & bloodwork confirmed the rotting dead puppy caused mama dog to develop a serious infection of Sepsis. Horrific decisions had to be made immediately. Either a risky emergency C-section.... or mama was going to die. We had no idea how far along she was in her pregnancy but thought she was "close" & ultimately decided that Mama deserves a chance of life after 9 years of giving birth, being shot & abused by real life Devil's disguised as humans. We're beside ourselves with grief & devastation to announce that the remaining six puppies passed away at birth. They did everything they could including CPR but the puppies were simply not far enough along & their lungs gave way. We worked so hard to bring her this far & can't believe this is the outcome. So now Mama Demi, is not only fighting for her life but mourning her terrible loss of all of her babies. Her name, Demi, is after Demi Lovato's song called "Warrior" because thats exactly what she is. She deserves to live. So did the puppies. This is so unfair & hard to accept for all of us involved. The emergency C-section was

SNEAK PEAK of knocked up senior pregnant dog from Montura & her sidekick that we spent weeks conditioning to trap & got them together Wednesday night & then drove them to West Palm Beach to the rescue!
We named them "Elvis" & "Demi". They needed names that meant "Survivor" or "strength" after what they've lived thru. Elvis is the sidekick named after the song "Youll never Walk Alone" & Demi Lovatos song "Warrior" ( I never heard of her but Google has soo lol" . If you're able to donate to help the cost of what it's going to take for this duo to get back to health, please donate to the rescue who helped me at the last second! Demi literally pooped out actual garbage, grass & tapeworms & we're positive they'll both have heartworms. There's no way they dont. We're hoping that the puppies are all healthy & survive! Mama Demi is showing major signs of labor nearing.
