My Deaf & Blind Double Dapple Alice

My Deaf & Blind Double Dapple Alice This page reflects the rescued life of a deaf and blind puppy mill survivor and her baby steps toward recovery. PERSISTENCE is the overall key.

My experiences from watching the birth of her mind and rebirth of her life have enlightened me to the other side of rescue- REHABILITATION. This page lends to the rehabilitation and character of a 7 year tenant in a puppy mill setting. Rescued from a puppy mill in Waller County, Texas on May 18, 2011, Alice has made many gains in the recovery arena, as well as setbacks. Her gains coupled with setb

acks are being posted to hopefully help others understand the challenges that accompany the adjustment of these precious babies. Do understand... PATIENCE and LOVE are good starting places.

Spamming the comments on my post about the death of Bubbles was tacky and desperate and kind of trashy. Message me or page owners and we may help you spread awareness.

I have dreaded this post on this page about Bubbles bc it is so apparent that I have finally lost the last of my original 6-pack of Weeners.

On January 24, I noticed a lick spot under her arm. Took her too the vet and they did her kidney panels and treated her arm with antibiotics. He blood work showed perfection for a baby in kidney failure. Slight elevation in BUN, but she was home and arm was improving.

On Jan 30, I took her back for recheck on her arm and told them she seemed uncomfortable and panting a lot. Like out of breath. This was a new symptom. She was a couch potato, and over past 2 years had become deaf and blind.

The xrays showed a mass so big in her chest that her heart wasn't visible on one angle. It had pushed her trachea slightly over and had consumed- what the vet said was - 75% to 80% of her lungs. YES she was walking around and never panted or seemed in distress! If I had known it she would have been in sooner and visiting Dr. Novosad my vet oncologist. I am so devastated. I missed the tumor. So I decided to let her go. She was panting at the vet. She panted when I got there (she was a drop off) and then when I held her for the very last time, she wasn't panting as she was earlier. I think she knew. I spent about 30 minutes with her.

I told her to go with Olivia (R.I.P. August 16, 2013), Bella (September 22, 2021), Heidi (October 25, 2021), Alice ( December 21, 2022), and Daisy (March 18, 2023).
I kissed her snout and held her as tightly as I could. Swaddled her as I sobbed from all that was within me. Her little head relaxed, and her breathing became shallow as I clung to the last heartbeat I could still feel. At 5:38 p.m. she was gone.

Just getting around to posting so pics of my Little Man. He is super active and sneaky. You would never guess he is deaf and blind until you look at his eyes or try to call out to him.
I am getting him used to touch. He starts going any which way but loose when he's touched and doesn't know its coming. He absolutely hates his face or head to be touched, so I approach him from the side. He will be 7 months old on March 2. He is such a sweet baby

Houston, We Have A Climber!
I am working on LAP PATIENCE! My arms acts like a thunder shirt, or just holding him snugly when he starts active spazzing out! Or I put him down into his man made cove. Since he is a head-throwing, quick-teeth-piercing, crocodile-kill-rolling, PERSISTENT little man, he keeps me on my toes. He climbs or tries to climb out of the metal cage, so I had to put my 3 foot high plastic cage together. He's sneaky. I won't have time to comb for information online until next week, any advice here is welcome.

He has a vet appt in morning to get his bloodwork and updates done. Scheduling his "snip" as well.

Good Morning, Kids! Here's my pupdate on Mr. Zero. He's a super fast learner. He found the doggie stairs and has been climbing up the mall morning! I put him back down. He slings his makeshift silicon toy around in true badger fashion🤣 His lickmat and chew toys should be here today from Amazon.

So far this routine is working for him, I know because he doesn't whine....

💕Get up and go to his feeding area. He eats and goes potty. About 20 minutes.

💕 He doesn't sit still right away so I let him play on floor. He slings that hand pretty hard. Runs around some.

💕I have put him in his day cage area frequently, 5-10 min, because he will have to stay there until my son can let him out. About 3 times a day. He occupies himself pretty well. But he needs to be busy.

It's only been 2 days since he's been here. I remember when Alice got here. She was so petrified of everything. Broke my heart to know she had a crappy beginning for 7 MISERABLE YEARS. At the hands of humans who should know better. But Zero has a chance to make it, even though he was born due to IGNORANCE... humans gotta do better. I am so thankful the Lord gave me this little man.

This is Zero, my new baby! He is a deaf-blind double dapple. He is 5 1/2 months old
