This post is about a special little Yorkshire Terrier mix female looking for a foster to adopt home. We will start by introducing you to Xena, then provide some educational information about mammary tumors in dogs. Please share this post to maybe help save the life of a pet🩷
Foster to Adopt Home Needed!
Everyone meet Xena, a 6 year Yorkshire Terrier, possibly Chihuahua mix! This 6# little cutie is very sweet, a little shy and quite the ham after she gets to know you.
Xena came in last night from an open admission shelter in KY, where euthanasia is a harsh reality when intakes are too high and adoptions are down. Unfortunately, Xena is going to need a little extra care since she has a small mammary gland mass that will need to be removed when she is spayed.
Mammary masses are very common in female dogs that aren't spayed at a young age (before the second heat cycle) and 50% of them are benign while 50% are cancerous. We will know more about Xenas lump once it is removed.
Xena is currently looking for a foster to adopt home where she can get all the love and attention she so deserves. Once she is ready to be officially adopted, an adoption donation of $400 will be asked to cover a portion of her veterinary and care fees, but fostering is free. She has been examined, vaccinated, treated for intestinal and external parasites and she will have full bloodwork done, her mass removed and will be spayed prior to adoption.
Due to her size, current condition and temperament, foster to adopt requirements are:
🌸Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY to continue her vetting as needed in the upcoming weeks.
🌸Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered.
🌸She should do fine with likesized dogs and cats in the home due to her gentle demeanor
🌸She will need a patient home willing to work on training and giving her time to warm up
🌸Homes with childre
Kitten playtime and updates!

We wanted to reintroduce everyone to Sophia, our 1 yr old, 20#, Yorkshire Terrier mix. Sophia has been with us for several months since she has some personality quirks that make her not suitable for every home. Though she may not be the perfect dog, we think she will be perfect for someone.
We don't know what Sophia experienced in in her previous home, but she seems to be fearful of men. This doesn't mean that she can't be around men, just that it will take some time for her to be acclimated and this will require both restraint and patience from a gentleman in the home. Sophia will likely take a day or two to warm up to women in the home since she is initially fearful. She will freeze when being picked up, but will lie on your lap and accept being petted and cared for.
Once she gets to know she is safe, she has a truly bubbly personality. She will gaze into your eyes to reassure you that she is there and you are now her person. She will elicit play, sit pretty, play week a boo and try to win your heart and she has won ours. Sophia is looking for a family to love her, make her feel safe and see to it that she will be cared for lifelong.
Although this little girl has some special requirements for a home, we think she is still deserving. Sophia is getting a bit anxious in boarding and could really use a foster or foster to adopt home soon. Please help sweet Sophia's dreams come true and find her a home!
Due to her size, temperament and age, foster to adopt requirements are:
🪷Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY to continue her vetting as needed in the upcoming weeks.
🪷Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered.
🪷Sophia does ok with like sized dogs but she hasn't been cat tested. In true terrier fashion, she does like to chase chickens if given the opportunity.
🪷Homes with children over 10 years old should be ok but she prefers a quiet home if

Dallas is awake from his MRI and no major congenital abnormalities were found. The neurologists are thinking this may either be very early onset epilepsy or perhaps a degenerative neurological condition that would not show on MRI but will be rapidly progressing and likely not treatable as it progresses. He has been started on prednisone and phenobarbital for the seizures and we will be repeating bloodwork in a month to see if things are progressing. If he responds well to treatment over the next month or two, epilepsy will be our diagnosis. Keep this pup in your prayers since he will be coming home tomorrow❤️
❗️❗️We had a very generous donation from a friend of our rescue that has helped us in tough times. They would like to remain anonymous, but they donated $5000 toward Dallas and Mojo's bill. Thank you to our supporters for helping whennwe need them the most ❗️❗️

We have an emergent situation on our hands. Poor Dallas, one of our Jack Russel mix pups started to have strange episodes at the end of last week. These episodes came on suddenly and we were hoping if he got in to something, they would resolve on their own.
Initial testing at our vets office revealed normal cell counts and organ function. Unfortunately, things have continued to worsen, and as of last night, he has had several grand mal seizures.
After consulting with our veterinarian over the past few days, she reached out to a Neurologist at Cornell and they recommended that the puppy come in on emergency for supportive care and a complete workup. If this is a fixable problem, we need a diagnosis so treatment can be started before it's too late.
Dallas has now been admitted to the ER for stabilization and he will see a Neurologist in the morning.
Please keep him in your thoughts and if you can donate toward his care, it would be greatly appreciated. His estimate for initial treatment is $4000-
