Pet Tender Angels Rescue and Rehabilitation

For a couple of years, we struggled with erosion and flooding in two of our main play areas, making it nearly unusable during heavy rains. The muddy conditions made cleaning difficult and created a miserable environment for both dogs and staff. After over a year of searching, we finally found a reliable team to tackle the project. We’re thrilled to announce that the work is complete, thanks to the remarkable job by Harris Landscaping & Lawncare LLC. Ask for Austin. We highly recommend them! If you’re in need of their services, be sure to let them know that Pet Tender Angels sent you. We're grateful to have a space that everyone can enjoy! Thank you for your donations, without them, the dogs would still be swimming. 🥹

Our sweet Lydia found her family. So happy!

Just letting everyone know that all the pups and I survived without harm and that's the important thing. The inconvenience this storm brought has confirmed that we have a wonderful support team. Can't thank the PTA family more for showing up once again to keep the pups happy. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who has suffered.

All the pups (and pig) are inside and dry and we are as ready as we can be for the storm. Stay safe everyone!

Update: ER thinks she is doing well enough to come home today. Will pick her up at 2:30. Thanks for all the prayers!

Update: They did end up giving her the Anti-Venom because the skin around the wounds was already dying. She's not showing any other symptoms except for pain and are sending her home with a prescription for a strong pain medicine. The Anti-Venom shot can cause anaphylaxis so they need to watch her for about an hour and wanted to keep her overnight but since they all leave at 5:30, I insisted bringing her home tonight and I will put her in a crate in my house so that I can keep a close eye on her. please continue prayers

Update: Blood work looked good so they will sedate and clean up her wounds, start her on steroids and pain meds. Thanks everyone.

We are at the vet with Buttercup ...she tangled with a copperhead snake and got bit twice in the face. Will know later how she is doing. She is one of our sanctuary senior dogs. She was feral when we took her in 10 years ago. She was never adopted because of her fear of people she doesn't know. She is very loved by all the staff and volunteers so we ask for your prayers she will pull through. 😪

Rey Rey had his first visit with Dr. Barr at FurWell Veterinary Hospital . We are now also reaching out holistically to help our sweet boy. Rey Rey and I both loved the staff and especially Dr. Barr and look forward to see what all the combined efforts do for him.

🌟 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!
