Here we go again: Scammer Alert
Tootsy Verghese
RIP 🥀 She was shot. Not ran over by a car.
She was named Toosty Verghese in honor of Mary Verghese, an Indian doctor, among the pioneers of Physical medicine and rehabilitation.
We were asked to help a dog that had apparently been hit by a car and had suffered for several days without rescue in sight other than the person who moved her out of where she was found, took her home and provided first aid, later we were told she also tried to set her bones, we don’t know what kind of medical or veterinary knowledge this person may have but we do not recommend this practice at all.
Tootsy then went to our vet at Tomball Animal Hospital where tests and X-rays were performed, pain killers were administered and she was made comfortable while we figured out the extent of her injuries. Results showed that she had been shot and the bullet had exploded in her spine, in her L2 and severed her spinal cord. She had no pain sensation in either back leg and her bladder was 6 times the normal size as well as was leaking inward into her abdomen and also outside.
It is a sad choice but one sometimes we have to pick. To end their pain is our goal and she is no longer suffering. There was no way to make her better, no matter how much we could have done. I can assure you our rescue, as many of you know, go all the way at trying to save these dogs.
Tootsy Verghese is now forever playing in green fields of happiness .
A few days ago, Twiggy’s foster called and reported her sick with a swollen, distended belly, inability to eliminate and in a depressive, in pain state. We rushed Twiggy to the emergency hospital at Blue Pearl Spring and sure enough, the veterinarians discovered a mass in her pelvic are. A mass the size of an orange. We immediately agree to treatment and she was prepared for surgery. Before going into surgery, we were able to head there and visit with her as her chances of coming out of it were 50-50. The mass was large and we didn’t know if it was touching vital organs; waiting for a CT scan and biopsy results would take about 4-5 days maybe and we needed to act. Thankfully, Twiggy came out of surgery well minus a mass in her abdomen. She has been recuperating at Blue Pearl and is released tomorrow.
Twiggy’s foster is no longer a candidate to continue her care as she works full time and right now Twiggy needs someone to constantly monitor her elimination and progress. She is very underweight as a result of this and she is also suffering from a torn ACL, she will have that surgery when the times come and she can stand another surgery, for now, we need to focus on recuperation. We are begging to find a foster for Twiggy, who is a sweet, shy and quiet girl of only 35 lbs . Can you HELP!!??
Please TEXT our rescue number 832.533.6049 or contact Angelica InRescue
and become a foster to save Twiggy.

It’s is sad to give these kind of updates but we must as the amount of people that were rooting for Eddy Mousse to be rescued were many.
We were asked to help with Eddy Mousse a couple of days ago as his condition seemed to be precarious and needed immediate medical help; we agreed and immediately contacted our veterinarian who was willing to see him right away. Zully Vasquez Ventura and Jenny Rodriguez with @The Daily Kibble loaded him into the car and transported him.
Eddy Mousse had severe lung damage with masses in them, had tumors in the spleen and a heavy load of heartworms that were living not only in his heart but in his lungs too and it was determined that he was in an advanced stage of heartworm disease called Caval Syndrome. Eddy Mousse was also highly anemic and he was in need of oxygen.
Unfortunately, his health was so deteriorated that a decision had to be made to ease his pain and help him transition. We knew he was in his final days and no medical intervention could help him at that point.
Zully was with him until the end and he was showered with love and affection before his end.
Neglect and abandonment can kill a dog, basic care that is never provided to pets as regular check ups and prevention can kill them within just a couple of years into their life. Having dogs, cats, any pets include an amount of work and expense that encompasses what we call Responsible Pet Ownership and the bottom line is, if you cannot provide the basic care, please didn’t keep animals around you. Don’t tell me you live them.
Love is NOT enough.
May you find the Light Eddy Mousse.
A necropsy was ordered to corroborate findings in tests and hopefully, they will serve a purpose, to educate people on the effects of pet neglect.
If you have any questions regarding the tests, results or costs, please message me at Angelica InRescue.
Beware!!!!!! Someone has created a fake Venmo account with our name. It contains a dash at the end. That is NOT our rescue group! BEWARE!!
Ours has no dashes and no extra letters, is just our name @thezoeygroup
We do it in her name to honor her memory. ZOEY was a beautiful white deaf Pitbull found and rescued from the streets of Houston. Help ZOEY help others!
