❤️🩹 Theo’s Recovery Update ❤️🩹
❤️🩹Update on Theo’s Journey to Recovery❤️🩹
We are thrilled to share the incredible progress Theo has made on his journey to recovery! When we first rescued him back in September, he weighed just 13 lbs and was unable to stand, walk, or even lift his head. He had been left abandoned in a crate, suffering from neglect and illness, covered in his own waste, and battling severe malnutrition and parvo.
After receiving exceptional care from CNY Veterinary Medical Services, he was released on October 1st! RDO's VP went to pick Theo up and despite initial concerns about his fear/anxiety, Theo jumped straight into Jamie’s arms… and hasn’t let go since! Jamie had initially planned to bring Theo to his foster home, but Theo decided otherwise. He refused to let go, and Jamie couldn’t resist bringing him home! Since then, Theo has been learning to trust people and discovering what it means to be a dog in a loving home.
Theo’s recovery is progressing well. His bowels are improving daily, and this shy little guy now has a tail that won’t stop wagging whenever his person is near. He has turned into an extreme snuggler, giving literal hugs, and is slowly overcoming the obstacles from his traumatic background. While he’s still working on being comfortable outdoors, his progress has been heartwarming.
Our current focus is on his socialization. Theo has come a long way from those first few days when he was afraid of his own shadow. We’re ensuring his nutritional and dietary needs are met as he gains weight, helping him become the healthy, happy dog he’s always deserved to be.
None of this would be possible without the incredible support and generosity of our community. Your contributions have enabled Theo to receive the hospitalization, parvo treatment, and medical services he so desperately needed. Thank you all SO MUCH for being a part of Theo’s journey! 🫶🏼

💭 Imagine witnessing a dog who is sick, tired, and hurt, a dog who has given up on life, suddenly experiencing love, care, and attention for the first time. Providing them with a safe place to heal, to build confidence, a place where they can finally feel secure.
💕Slowly, you see this dog transform into a whole new being. Their true personality shining through as they wag their tail, seek out attention, and play with a toy for the very first time.Fostering these dogs is an incredibly rewarding experience. It serves as the crucial link between homelessness and a forever home, often making the difference between life and death.
🫶🏼We invite you to join us in our mission to be the voice for the voiceless. To be the person who cares more, who shows these dogs that they are not alone in this world.

Miracle Murray
🐾 Our amazing pup Murray is making incredible progress every day! Her foster mom says that she is now actively seeking out attention, loves belly rubs and asks for more when you stop. Murray is now getting up and walking around, exploring her surroundings. While her back end is sometimes strong, she still struggles at times, but she is steadily improving! 💪🏼
🫢In a surprising turn of events, the vet believes Murray is actually younger than we initially thought. They estimate her age to be only 5-7 years old! This news has us thrilled and filled with hope for Murray's future. We can't wait to see her continue to thrive and grow stronger each day. Murray truly is a miracle pup! ☀️ 🌈
Destiny Update
✨ Destiny Update ✨
Earlier this week, Destiny underwent a double enucleation surgery to remove her eyes, which had become painful and enlarged due to glaucoma. Thanks to the support of our community, we were able to get Destiny the surgery she needed promptly. She is now recovering beautifully in her foster-to-adopt home. Destiny is on the road to a brighter future, and we couldn't have done it without your help! 🥹🫶🏼 Thank you so much 💕
Murray Update
💕Murray Update 💕
Murray behaved like an angel during her vet and graciously accepted their assistance with grateful eyes. They were able to trim her overgrown nails and determined that she does not have mange. The hair loss she is experiencing is likely a result of a severe flea infestation. The vet prescribed an ointment to help heal her sores.
Currently, Murray is receiving pain medication, anti-inflammatories, and antibiotics to help her recover. Once she regains her strength, she will undergo surgery to remove a mass from her ear.
She is now back in her foster home, resting comfortably and receiving all the tender loving care she deserves. We are incredibly grateful to her dedicated foster home for their exceptional care of this sweet girl. In just 24 hours her progress has been nothing short of a miracle!

Murray
On Thursday night, a helpless dog was discovered collapsed and unable to walk. The following day, we were informed of her dire condition and immediately sprang into action to secure a foster home where she could finally find comfort. In just a matter of hours, we were able to locate the most compassionate foster home willing to take in this senior dog, despite knowing very little about her.
Upon arriving at animal control, it was evident that she was in a critical state. She was unable to walk and had to be carried. The stench of infection emanating from her ear was overpowering, and a large mass was discovered inside. Her nails were severely overgrown and curled under, her fur infested with fleas and other pests. She was missing a lot of hair and a few painful sores.
After administering fluids and pain medication, she was already feeling a lot better. She was able to take a few steps! Her fosters spent their evening meticulously removing every flea and bug from her thick coat, and lovingly hand-fed her canned food, which she devoured. They affectionately named her Murray.
Today, Murray will be taken to the vet for a comprehensive evaluation to determine the extent of her condition, and we will stop at nothing to ensure she receives the care she deserves.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Utica Animal Control for their swift response to Murray's distress and for entrusting us with her well-being.
Stay tuned for further updates on Murray's journey to recovery.
