Pet Tender Angels Rescue and Rehabilitation

09/12/2024

🌟 Updates from Pet Tender Angels! 🌟

We've been super busy here with our special needs puppies! Many of you already know that Rey Rey goes to the chiropractor weekly, and next week Ruby will start her treatments too. We're really hopeful that both of them will walk again! 🐾💖

Here's a little update on Rey Rey: We remain very hopeful because every day, we see him getting stronger and more determined. He used to bark and wait for me to bring him his favorite toy from across the room, but now my brave boy goes and gets it himself!

When I make his dinner, he used to wait patiently on the other side of the room. Now, when I turn around, he’s right behind me, eagerly awaiting his tasty treats.

Rey Rey is pushing, almost standing on his front legs now. His back legs are also getting stronger, thanks to Dr. Kopp, his chiropractor, who has noticed a positive change in his muscle tone. Even though progress comes in baby steps, our sweet Rey Rey gets stronger every day. 💪

We remain hopeful and will be here for him and Ruby as long as they need us. Thank you all for your continued support and love! 💕🐾

Update on Ruby: Though Ruby still isn't walking, this brave hound mix never ceases to amaze us! She can stand and even balance on her back legs sometimes. She whizzes around in her wheelchair with joy and energy that's truly inspiring. 🦽💕 Ruby is the happiest, sweetest, and most playful pup!
We have high hopes for what Chiropractic Care can do for her.

A huge thank you to Dr. Kopp at Kopp Animal Chiropractic for all the dedicated care. We eagerly look forward to our visits and are so grateful for care they are giving our pups.

Please leave some encouraging words for Rey Rey and Ruby!

This week's session went well. Rey Rey ended the day zenfully happy!

Sweet Cola came to us when her mom of 11 years had to go into assisted living. It warms our hearts when people are willing to adopt the seniors. It simply isn't fair that they are ripped from the only family they have known and handed over to a shelter. We couldn't be happier!

Rey Rey started a whole new journey in life. Wheelchair therapy, Chiropractic therapy (thank you Dr. Kopp Kopp Animal Chiropractic ), and accupuncture therapy (thank you Dr. Barr FurWell Veterinary Hospital ). Follow Rey's journey to healing.

Fitting to the wheelchair. To my surprise....he is using his back legs more than front in the chair. Still a long way to go. ..but we are not giving up. He has his first Chiropractor appointment tomorrow.

🚨🚨SENIOR ALERT 🚨🚨
Hi 🐾 My name is Peter and I’m 12 years old. I’m not sure how I ended up in this shelter. They are nice to me here but the situation isn’t ideal. I feel like I’ve done something wrong and now I’m in jail. I would really like to live in a home instead of the concrete kennel they keep me in here. Would you consider opening your heart and your home to an old fella like me? Please!

**Meet Toby: Your Perfect Couch Companion**

Toby is the ultimate couch potato and loyal companion. He loves lounging on the sofa and is happiest just being near his people. Despite a rough start in life, Toby has grown into a mellow and affectionate dog. While he prefers a relaxed lifestyle, Toby is a vigilant watchdog, alerting his foster family to any intruders.

Though he enjoys chilling most, Toby occasionally indulges in short play sessions. In his foster home, he gets along with both a male and a female guardian but has a special bond with the female. He follows his humans everywhere, especially if food is involved, craving their presence while still getting used to physical affection.

If you want a relaxed, loyal, and loving companion, Toby could be the perfect fit. We believe him to be 3-4 years old, American Bulldog/English Bulldog mix. Ready to give Toby the forever home he deserves? Reach out and make him part of your family today!

Toenail clipping time for Cujo! 😉 (his name is really P-nut)

Superb.

Delightful.

Fantastic.

Wonderful.

Amazeballs. (Yes, that is a word according to the OED!)

Leo is the best of boys, and we don't have enough words to describe how much we adore him. He is one of our longer-time residents at the rescue. When a rescue partner sent him to us, he was recovering from a skin infection. They had taken amazing care of him, and he was starting to feel good and show his Pyrsonality.

And what a good one it is! He is a dorky boy who was awkward with the other big dogs at first. In rescue, he has blossomed, and he has been the second choice of so many adopters now. "Always the bridesmaid, never bride" happens in rescue sometimes!

Most people come to us for full Pyrs, and it is *harder* to place mixes. Leo is a Pyr/husky/boxer mix and the best of those wonderful breeds. He would thrive with an active family who has a playful female dog his size. Kids ok!

Leo is all the good things, and we would love nothing more than for this wonderful boy to find his Pyrfect home. He deserves to be picked!

To meet Leo or any of our wonderful dogs...but especially lovely Leo...please read our policies and fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com.

Thanks for likes and shares!

Dahlia says..."what amputation surgery?"

06/28/2024

We are thrilled to share some exciting updates from PTA! Thanks to your generosity and support, we successfully raised enough funds to install a bath station for our furry friends. This new addition will make bath time a breeze for our beloved dogs.

In addition, we are overjoyed to report that through donations, we were able to save a precious dog's life through life-saving amputation surgery and give a better quality of life to another with a tail amputation surgery. Dahlia is now thriving and has a new forever home waiting for her. Ruby is recovering wonderfully– a true testament to the impact of your contributions.

Furthermore, we are pleased to announce that the installation of a level platform for a rehab pool has been completed. As we await the arrival of the pool, we are excited to provide water therapy for Rey Rey and Ruby, and it is thanks to your continued support.

And it's not just about the dogs – PTA has provided a temporary shelter for a baby orphaned possum. This little creature is receiving the same level of care and compassion as all our other animals and should be able to be released back into the wild sometime in August.

We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you who have contributed to these achievements. Your generosity and support have made a real difference in the lives of these animals, and we are truly grateful for your continued support.

Thank you for being a part of the PTA family and for helping us make a positive impact on the lives of animals in need. Stay tuned for more updates, and let's continue to make a difference together!

Some days it is very hard to get motivated and the procrastination takes over.
