Mom dressed Bertie and me in pretty pink sweaters. She said "go outside and go potty but don't get dirty. We're going out". Bertie looked good getting in the car. I didn't like the sweater so I dug a hole and took it off. Now Mom seems irritated. I just don't get it.....

The weekly organization of medications for 16 dogs takes a little bit of time. But it is super rewarding. Please adopt senior dogs. Love them forever.

Welcome Bongo!
Born: 07-18-2013
To LDR: 09-21-2025

Uh ya, Bongo here! I’m new to this joint but so far, so good. I came hot…. lost both my eyes AND my man-stuff in short order. OK…. I didn’t mind the eyes but hey…. what the heck? I’m pretty much a jock… yep, wuz the main man on the canine football team. Played center. Might not have been the smartest but I can bark. Ya, I’m an old athlete and my legs, knees, and hips are shot. My back took a beating too. But don’t count me out. In just 5 days I learned to navigate the house, let myself out for potty and find my way back inside to my bed. Hey…. this guys got pride! I like the chow here – kind of a training table buffet – I’m in the “gen pop” so the eats are tasty. My bros on the special low fat diets… poor bastards. But I’m sitting pretty good. And my new Mom is a real hottie! At least that’s what she tells me…. remember, that “no eyes” thing. Yep, I’m Bongo and I’m rockin’ the Little Dog Ranch!

As Hurricane Milton wailed, Pita sought higher ground. Mickey decided if the storm was going to take him, he would go out using his full allotment of two beds. The rest of our blind & deaf crew slept soundly despite the gale (there are upsides to everything!). Thankfully no damage to our place and everyone was safe.

Welcome Tippy! A big shout out of gratitude towards Team Moose in Fort Myers and Susan Gros with Poodle and Pooch rescue out of Orlando. Through a tremendous amount of coordination, Little Dog Ranch is the lucky recipient of this beautiful miniature Aussie. Tippy sadly lost his owner a few weeks back and given that he has liver cancer, was deemed to be a difficult adoption. His situation was perfect for our elder care home. Tippy is starting to settle in after his very stressful ordeal. Just yesterday I was out in the back lawn picking up toys that had been strewn about by my less tidy family members! I picked up a squeaky toy and in the process squeaked it. I looked over at Tip and his ears perked right up. I thought what the heck, and I tossed the toy. Tippy took off at Mach 10, arrived at the toy, picked it up ever so gently in his mouth and trotted it back. He dropped it at my feet. Who knew! Life for Tippy is going to be just fine. Thank you to everyone who has donated to our cause. You are the ones who allow me to give these dogs a beautiful rest of their life. Cheers, Cheryl

Welcome Commen! This wonderful, mostly blind boy came from a great home last Friday. His two loving parents recently moved to our area and their work life changed dramatically. They made a very difficult decision to move Commen to Little Dog Ranch to provide him with more constant care throughout the day and medical attention necessary due to his advancing age. Commen's first trip to our LDR vet was yesterday and his bloodwork came back A+. His eyesight is his major issue, along with a definite need for dental work. Next Tuesday he will travel to the Veterinary Eye Institute in Ocala for an in-depth eye exam. After a treatment plan is determined for his eyes, I will schedule him for a dental. Once this is complete, he should be fit as a fiddle. Commen is an incredibly sweet soul -- right now he is sleeping at my feet in his comfy bed with his special blanket. Check out the video of last night's snuggle... what a love!

Hello Everyone! I promised to give you an update on Pogo after his visit last week at the Gainesville Institute of Veterinary Specialists. Just to refresh, Pogo came to Little Dog Ranch on November 16th. His owner of 4 months had died. He has a golf-ball size tumor on the right side of his jaw and the sparse records that came with him suggested it was a slow-growing cancer. I wanted to get a second opinion. Dr. Isis Sanchez tells me that she feels she can successfully remove the tumor, however, it will likely grow back slowly over time. This is a tough call but Pogo is a VERY sweet, laid-back boy and I think he deserves a chance at a long life. I have tentatively set a January date for surgery but Pogo will need to be in a little better shape (he had been eating a vegan diet - oh my!) for his best surgical outcome. We will see how he is doing after the holidays. For now, he is a content fellow -- still figuring out his new family but loves his meals and running after me when I mow the lawn. It's a good start!
