Basil - Update

Basil's surgery was long and complicated, and we are happy to report that Basil did well during surgery. She is about 2 weeks post-op now, and she issteadily making progress. While Basis still has some time to recoup, she looks so much happier in the post-picture below, and we can safely assume that she is feeling better.

Thanks to all for you donations, shares, and other support. This is a bigger case than we usually take on, but we are so happy that together, we made a difference in Basil's life.

We will continue to provide updates on Basil's progress.

Daisy has been Adopted!

Daisy had a meet-and-greet last Saturday, and she passed with flying colors. Daisy now has several big dog siblings, and you can guess, who rules the roost.

Thanks, Michele for adopting and providing Daisy with a wonderful forever home.

New Case - Donations Needed

Meet Basil, a Yorkie who was (presumably) hit by a car. She was found near I-64. A Good Samaritan noticed Basil and took her to Blue Pearl, who contacted us for assistance. Basil neither wore a collar, nor was she microchipped.

Basil suffered extensive orthopedic injuries, and we initially thought that we could transfer Basil to another animal hospital to get the procedures done at a lesser cost, so we committed to taking her on. As it turned out, the procedures required a high surgical skill level and specialized tools, and Basil had to be returned to Blue Pearl for care.

After careful consideration, we agreed to have the procedures performed. Basil did great yesterday, and she was already sitting up yesterday evening. She may even be able to leave the hospital later today. Thanks to Paige, one of the vet techs at Blue Pearl, for stepping to foster. Knowing that she has great and professional care at home made this difficult decision easier.

This is finacially the biggest case we have ever had, and we are in need of donations. This is code red for us.

Meet Dubby!

Dubby joined us a couple of weeks ago from an area shelter. He is a couple of years old. He has an old fracture of his left front leg. Sadly, the fracture is past the point of intervention, but it does not hold Dubby back in any way. He is good with other dogs, and we are in the process of getting him up-to-date on his vaccinations.

If you are interested in adopting him, please complete an adoption form at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/SaveOneSoulAdoptionApplication

Meet Daisy!

After taking Zoey back, we added Daisy to our family. She is a petite Beagle - approximately 2 years old. She initially had skin issues, which had already been taken care of by our vet.

She has really blossomed in foster care and is now ready to get the rest of her vaccines.

If you are interested in adopting this sweet pup, you can complete an application on our website at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/SaveOneSoulAdoptionApplication

05/07/2024

We've had a few very busy weeks here at Save One Soul.

First, Zoey was adopted and sadly returned within only 1 week: she was so skittish at the adopter's home that they asked to return her. Of course, we welcomed her back, and we decided to switch fosters for her. She took a couple of days to get adjusted, and is now as rambunctious and happy as you would expect an 8 month old puppy to be.

Zoey is now looking for a home again.

Stay tuned for more updates.

04/09/2024

Who is available to adopt or foster?

This precious girl was found on the side of the road (along with another beagle that has already been adopted). She is about 2 -3 years old, utd on her vaccines and spayed. She is a true lover of everyone and gets along with other dogs. She is currently staying in the kennel at our vet's office and needs to break out. She is not yet house trained.

Save One Soul will pay for food, vet care and supplies. Please pm us if interested.

If you cannot foster or adopt, please share.

Thank you!

03/23/2024

Happy International Puppy Day!
Zoey would like to remind everyone that she is still available. This All American (8+ breeds found) is about 6 months old now, weighs around 40lbs, and is such a sweetheart. Zoey gets along with other dogs, and does well with kids. She loves treats and play time.

Puppies, Anyone?

These pups are the siblings of the two that we already have in foster care. They are still in the shelter, and we all know that the shelter is no place for pups. Who can foster or adopt?

If fostering, Save One Soul will pay for the vet care necessary to bring them up-to-date on their vaccines and get them spayed/neutered.

If interested, please message us.

Update - 11/7/23

Delilah was released from the hospital a couple of days ago, and she is doing well. She is energetic like a puppy is supposed to be.

Thanks for your support!
______________________________________________________________________

Delilah and Zoe

Late last week, we were notified of a litter of 10 to 12 week old helpless puppies that were found on the side of the road. Ed and Mellisa, as well as Barb stepped up to foster the pups, and we were able to get the two out of the shelter.

Delilah (black pup) was calm from the beginning, and Zoe (brown) had enegery that your would normally expect from a pup. Yesterday, Mellisa noticed that Delilah showed signs of a parvo infection in Delilah, and we were able to get both of the pups seen immediately. Zoe did test negative (so far), and was able to go home wiht some meds. Sadly, Delilah did test positive for parvo and was admitted to the hospital. She was able to eat and drink tomorrow, and we are hopeful that she will make it through this terrible disease.

Delilah's parvo treatment will be expensive, and we are asking for donation to help pay for the treatment. Donations can be made via Venmo (), PayPal ([email protected]), or via check (PO Box 353, Hillview, KY 40129)

Clark celebrated Easter with a successful Easter Egg Hunt. He is a natural at finding the eggs, cracking them and eating the treats.

John and Michael - Update John had a rough week: Mary, who was providing vacation foster coverage, noticed that John did not want to eat on Thursday afternoon/evening. Thanks to Mary's knowledge and experience, we were able to get John admitted to the emergency room on Thursday evening. Tests were inconclusive, but the symptoms were consistent with coccidia, a parasite. John was quickly treated for the parasite, and vomiting and diarrhea subsided by the next morning, and he also started to take food again. Kelly, John's foster, could pick him up on Friday evening again. John is not out of the woods yet. While he was at the hospital, he learned how to howl, so now he stands on his short little legs and lets the world know who is in charge. lol We also thought it was prudent to have Michael treated for the parasite, so that we can hopefully avoid illness with him. The emergency room bill was in excess of $1300.00. Any help with the bill is appreciated.

Felix Playing

Look at little Felix! Watch the video below to see how he is enjoying his new lease on life. From stray to main event.

Sally is learning how to ride her Wheelchair

Yesterday was a big day for Sally! Sally took her new wheels for a spin. We initially presented her with her wheelchair, and she was ok then. Once we actually tried putting her into the chair, she initially showed and aversion to it - she just didn't understand. After we were able to correctly adjust the chair and position her in the chair, it didn't take her anything to learn how to take her first steps. Sally is strong willed pup, and such a quick learner. We're so proud of her. She is already learning how to lean into the chair to make turns. She was so tired at the end, but she continued to walk until she learned how to sit down. We, at Save One Soul, are very honored for this opportunity to collaborate with the Spirit Fund of Meade County. This teamwork will change Sally's life and give increase her quality of life tremendously. We would also like to thank Feeders Supply for allowing us to use the space, so that Sally could learn safely how to roll.

Good Night, Felix.

Foster or Foster to Adopt Needed Sally is a 15lb little pup with the spirit of a giant. Sally was born with her front legs folded inward at the elbows, rendering them useless. She is about 1.5 years old now, and as you can see in the video, she is able to get her way. She will do best in a home without other dogs. Save One Soul will pay for her vet care (including a wheelchair), food and supplies. This little pup sure deserves a better quality of life. If you live in the greater Louisville area and want to help her by fostering or foster to adopt, please complete a foster application at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/SaveOneSoulFosterApplication

Honey - New Case On Wednesday, the Shelby County animal shelter contacted us about a dog with hip issues. Honey (the white dog in the video) had been hit by a car and was in need of help. Thanks to Barb, who stepped up again to not only foster, but also get Honey from the shelter, we were able to take her on. After thorough exam and review of Honey's x-rays, Dr. Kline determined that Honey's pelvis is fractured. Additionally, Honey had fleas, road rash and some old scars on her legs. Honey's flea infestation has already been treated, and she has started her crate rest for the pelvis fracture. She is scheduled for a follow-up visit in 3 weeks.

Alumni Alert! Remember Sabrina, the small Rottweiler mix, now named Rosie? Well, Rosie recently started a new job. Check it out. I think that she's in line for a promotion.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from Petey

To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, Petey decided to go to the park and see if the Easter Bunny might have made some early rounds. You wouldn't believe the luck that Petey had: he found green eggs and a pot of gold! Join us for our Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, 3/27/21, so that your dog can have this much fun, too! The event is free, we just ask that you sign up at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/EasterEggHunt

Happy Valentine's Day from Petey

Petey wishes everyone a Happy Valentine's Day. He hopes that all dogs received a delicious cookie like the one that he got. (And if you can tell, he will be accepting more cookies even when Valentine's Day will long be over. lol)

Nothing to see here. Just a Petey wrestling with one of his foster siblings.

Abigail... Is doing fantastic. She completed her heartworm treatment earlier in the year, and a repeat X-ray showed that the module she had actually decreased in size. Abigail's thyroid meds have recently been adjusted, and she will get "fixed" in early September. Abigail really likes her food, and she makes sure that we are not late for feeding time. 😁 Once Abigail is spayed, she will be ready for adoption. If you are interested in adopting her, please complete an application, which can be found on our website at www.saveonesoulatatime.org

Abigail, aka Cabana Anna, likes eating bananas.

Cash had Eye Surgery

Cash had his eye surgery last Tuesday, and all went well. Cash did have a rough first night after the surgery, but he is doing so much better now. This is the first time that I have seen him with his eyes open! He looks even more handsome this way! Tomorrow, Cash will return to Dr. Kline to take another look at his skin condition, and evaluation of his umbilical hernia. Poor guy still has a long road ahead of him, but at least, he can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. :-)

Abigail ... Continues to do well. She does not know that she is sick. She enjoys roaming in the yard, taking long naps, and eating. She came to Kroger with us yesterday, and checked one more item of her bucket list: meeting 100 new people. She made friends with everyone she met. We're certain that one of them is her new BFF. You can probably guess, who that might be. 😍

When Boss first joined us, he was unsure as to what to do with toys. Now, he loves playing with his balls. 😎

Wow! What a day! Thanks to the generosity of the customers at the Kroger on Hubbards Lane, Save One Soul had a very successful day: we received literally more food and supplies than we could fit into the back (and back seat) of an SUV! On top of that, we received $525 in cash donations, and even a Kroger gift card. Thanks to all who helped make this day such a success. Special thanks goes to Barb, who wasn't only instrumental in getting us the spot today, but also volunteered to help with the event.

A look back at 2018 2018 is coming to a close, and 2019 is just around the corner. It's been a busy year: We started January with a Dodger, quickly followed by Sadie. Willie joined us in early May, and Blitz in July. Early in August, we welcomed a little puppy named Hope, followed by Journey in fall, and Ginger and Max in early Winter. Our vet bills have exceeded $10,000 this year, with Sadie leading the pack. On the adoption side, Holly was the first one to find her forever home, followed by Piper, and Dodger. Oz, Oliver and Bentley were adopted in spring/early summer, followed by Blitz. Willie found his forever home in early fall, and Journey and Hope have recently been adopted. We set-up booths at the New Albany Farmers Market on a monthly basis, providing food and beverage items for donations. For the first time this year, we set-up a booth for Santa pictures at the Douglas Loop Farmers Market. We also had a small event at a local park for our volunteers, fosters, and public. Our gift wrapping efforts were a great success for us. All of this was only possible thanks to you - our donors, volunteers, fosters, adopters, and other supporters. We are very grateful for each and every single one of you. It truly takes a village. We plan on continuing our mission in 2019, helping as many sick and injured dogs as we can. Alissa, Andy, Heike, Letha

Hope... ...got herself an early Christmas gift this week! Yes, Hope got what she wanted for Christmas - a home of her very own! If you're new to our page, here is Hope's story: Hope came to us in early August. At only 6 weeks of age, she was emaciated, dehydrated, anemic (due to a flea infestation), and her right eye had ruptured. Her eye was causing pain, but before she could have her eye removed, we had to get her overall health strong enough to undergo the surgery. Once the surgery was performed, Hope started to thrive. She grew at a fast pace, showed personality, and engaged in a lot of play time with other dogs. Hope has never met a stranger. She loves everyone she meets, and she just knows that everyone loves her, too. Hope immediately took to Brian and Ashley, her adopters. Hope now also has a canine sister to play with. We would like to extend a special thanks to Dr. Kline and her staff at Preston Animal Hospital for taking such special care of Hope.

Our Story

Save-One-Soul (SOS) is a Louisville, KY based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works towards improving the quality of life and welfare of pets in the Louisville and surrounding areas by providing veterinary care to un-owned or shelter animals that are in the most urgent need. After accepting animals into our program, we provide them with the urgent veterinary care needed to treat their condition before moving them into foster care. While in foster care, the animals get acclimated to a normal home life, and receive follow-up treatments, including routine veterinary care, thus allowing us to facilitate adoption into a loving and permanent home.

Save One Soul is an all volunteer, foster based rescue organization, dedicated to improving the health and living conditions of dogs in the Kentuckiana area.

Fosters and volunteers are the heart and soul of our organization. Fostering dogs is one of the most rewarding activities you can do: taking a dog that has gone through a tough time, and seeing him or her improve in terms of health and/or trust and self-confidence is truly priceless. As the foster provider, you are asked to take the foster dog to vet appointments, adoption events and other events. Save One Soul covers the veterinary expenses, food, and supplies.

Fostering is a great way of "test driving" a dog. Most likely, you will love each and every foster dog you take in, as if it was your own dog. Sometimes, the dog is a great dog, but there may be an owner out there that is better suited for the dog than you are. Other times, the dog is the perfect match for the foster family. While we cannot guarantee, we try our best to accommodate the wishes of the fosters with respect to adoption.
