Wiley's Wish

Wiley's Wish Nonprofit Animal Rescue But every dog deserves a second chance every dog deserves to be loved. We save the dogs that need it and give them a second chance.

Wiley’s Wish Dog Rescue

Approximately 6.3 million animals are put into shelters every year, and about 920,000 of those will be put down and deemed unfit for saving. It is not a dog's fault for their behaviors, it is because we as humans have failed them. At Wiley’s Wish Rescue we believe that every dog is entitled to a chance, we don’t select dogs based on breed, or color or age. Wiley’s Wish’s

mission is to save animals from high-kill shelters and animals that have been abandoned and find loving forever homes. We rescue dogs, cats, horses, and many other kinds of animals. We rehabilitate and train dogs to be service dogs for our nation’s heroes, Veterans, and 1st Responders. We work with several other organizations to provide this service and partner with them in finding veterans that need service dogs. We also partner with everyday heroes to foster rescued animals. Wiley’s Wish Animal Rescue provides for all needs including food, shots, medicine, beds, toys, etc., of the dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, horses, and or other animals that are being fostered. As long as we have room, we will be saving animals. Wiley's Wish Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We rely on the kindness, goodwill, and generosity of individuals and corporations. Wiley’s Wish Training Service Dogs for Veterans
Many service members, who have suffered physical or psychological harm and have returned to civilian life, may find it incredibly challenging. According to some estimates, up to 20% of returning service members and veterans experience Post Traumatic Symptom Disorder (PTSD). Professionally trained PTS service dogs can ease afflicted veterans' stress and anxiety, lower their sadness, help them reintegrate into society more easily, and provide them comfort and confidence, according to many studies. Pets can also experience trauma as a result of maltreatment and or being abandoned on the streets. Both are seeking a fresh start, and they discover it in the other. Service dogs improve the veteran's quality of life and mental health. Many valiant Veterans, who desire to return to their regular life, are able to with the help of a faithful canine companion.

HAPPY DAY FOR WIDGET!!

This sweet boy was rescued from about a year ago . We were picking up Miss Belle, and a box of puppies came in that were found dumped at the modesto airport.
We couldn't say no they were so helpless at just 2 weeks old with no mama.

Widget was the runt of the litter and the sweetest little guy.

He stayed in foster care for a few months and then joined , where he received the very best training.

YESTERDAY he took his first Plane Ride to New Mexico to be with his Furever Family. He did so awesome .

We are so happy for you, sweet boy, and we will miss you a lot .

Update on Penelope:

She is home and resting for the night .
She has had a med change and her tail dressed.
(It does not need to be amputated)

This poor girl has been through hell, and the vet is not her favorite place to be .

She does have an ultrasound in the morning to rule out any obstruction. We should get all her test results back in the morning as well .

She has eaten some chicken and is now cozy in bed.

We will have some answers in the morning. It has been a very long day.

This was her workup for tonight . If you have pledged for Penelope (Ashley) or would like to donate . We would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you

So, what's in a name when it comes to rescue?

We're big believers in giving our rescues names with a meaning that aligns with their personality and where their life is headed, knowing
they are safe with us.

Names like Sadiya, Nyla, Phoebe, Ciaran, Alistair, or Penelope - we rename with purpose and with meaning. Intentional.

Our latest rescue, we renamed Ashley to Penelope as we felt its meaning embodied her greatest strengths.

Her name means "weaver" or "one who endures." Penelope represents strength, resilience, and a girl who possesses the ability to overcome challenges with grace and determination. This couldn't
better suit our girl. From a horrific life to a fulfilled life.

We believe every rescue has meaning, and their name should reflect that.

Be part of the process! We want to hear from you. Our next rescue may be named by you! ❤️

Good morning, everyone.

We are very excited to introduce you to Penelope (formally Ashley) of the Woofy Acres hoarding case and euthanasia listed survivor of Devore animal shelter in LA. Welcome to sweet one! We are overjoyed and look forward to your full recovery with our team.

Ashley has left the San Bernardino vet and is on her way north to her foster. We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to the entire staff, vet techs, Drs, and especially Kristi at Arrowview Animal Hospital for going above and beyond for Penelope. Thank you for the extensive testing, x-rays, and fast results as we now know how best to support her.

As we were picking her up from the hospital, we learned of her distemper test results, which were negative. Her health seems to be normal, all things considered.

Emotionally, mentally, we know she has a long way to go, but she is in wonderful hands, and we can not wait to see her personality grow and glow.

Our transport shared that she wasted no time jumping into his vehicle (he had to lift her backend), sat down, turned around, and looked at him like, "Let's go!"

Again, we want to thank everyone of you for supporting us with her rescue. We will show her paperwork and the medical receipt so everyone has full transparency into our entire process.

If you would like to donate towards her recovery and journey, we would appreciate it.

Right now, she is on a long drive north and will look to be with her Foster this evening. We will post transport updates throughout the day today and, of course, when she arrives at her Foster's home.

Why Penelope, you ask? We're big believers in giving dogs' names with a meaning that aligns with where their life is headed, knowing they are safe with us.

Penelope is a name of Greek origin and means "weaver" or "one who endures." This name represents strength, resilience, and a girl who possesses the ability to overcome challenges with grace and determination. Penelope is a strong name associated with intelligence, creativity, and unwavering loyalty.

We will keep everyone updated. As for now, she's sleeping quietly and literally on the road to recovery. ❤️🙌❤️

Hi everyone,

 

As promised, we wanted to provide you with an evening update on Ashley.

 

It is a quick recap as we were told this afternoon around 12:00PM (our first update) that they would continue with the same protocol tonight. That being said, they are continuing with the following:

·      Her medication schedule (Gabapentin, Trazedone and Fluoxetine) to help her be calm and sleep through the night;

·      Addressing her chewed tail with medicated spray;

·      Administering her medicated eye drops for infections in both eyes;

·      Feeding her (obviously – but a quick note - she loves the food they are giving her and we have that on hand at the foster’s home as we type this);

·      Prepping for her discharge tomorrow AM including possibly administering Cerenia (anti-nausea so as to make her transport comfortable – she does have a drive but she’ll be great);

She will be leaving the vet in San Bernardino tomorrow morning and will be headed north to her foster. We will be providing photos and videos of that discharge and departure tomorrow AM.

We are very happy with the prompt admittance of Ashley and THOROUGH care that this veterinary facility has given her. The clinic and main contact we will share tomorrow as they are a BIG advocate of rescues.

We also want to say that we appreciate all the messages regarding our process. When we rescue any dog (Ashley’s case is no different than any other, btw), our first commitment is to the animal (and by extension the potential foster or adoptive family) in that they are seen by a veterinary professional/team.

We want to ensure the safety of the animal and potential caretakers first and foremost. The more information EVERYONE has the better, that way EVERYONE involved can make an educated decision about how to proceed (or not), how to pivot, how to ensure that the next steps (which are crucial with a dog coming out of a shelter) are successful. We believe that the more data you have, the better. Period.

In Ashley’s case, we wanted to know everything. And we should know everything. Her physical, mental health we needed a thorough eval and synopsis so we could establish a solid, long-term plan

Hi everyone,

Tonight's update on Ashley is going to be a short one (which is good news!).

Ultimately, we were told by the vet staff this AM that no news was good news, but we did get a follow-on update this evening. Summary below:

Ashley is doing as expected. There is nothing new to report. Bowel movements have been consistent. She is eating and drinking normally and is thoroughly enjoying her stuffed toys.

The one recommendation they had is for her to have plenty of stuffed toys to play with (HA!) *If anyone would like to donate a stuffed toy to her, we'll certainly create a wishlist for Ashley! 

She is taking her meds easily, is in less pain, which means less spinning/agitation and stress. They are expecting results for her distemper, so we should know more tomorrow AM with the full vet staff/Dr on call. I will advise us of her overall progress in the morning.

Physically, we've surmised that she is in fairly decent shape. We will know more about her behavior and how best to assist when we get directions from the team tomorrow. Photos are coming first thing tomorrow.

We really appreciate everyone's patience and support of Ashley right now. We want to be consistent with our updates and be as thorough and thoughtful as possible. She is due to leave San Bernardino on Friday AM and will be transported directly to NorCal to her foster for care/rehab. 

A quick aside: In our experience, vet teams often do morning and evening updates only, so please understand that we are, in this case, getting updates when they are able to be given.Thank you in advance for understanding this.

We appreciate you sending your love and support to Ashley tonight. She will THRIVE. We know she will. More to come.

Thank you all, sincerely.

-Team Wiley's

Meet Ashley (Name change soon)

Ashley came from the horrific Woofy Acres hoarding case, one of 115+ dogs, and ended up at Devore Animal Shelter - admitted 7/18/2024

She was administered 1 tablet x 7 days of Trazedone to start on 7/21/24 (100MG per day, twice a day - *we highly doubt she was administered this given what we walked away with documentation wise which we will show in photos) This in essence means that sedation management of ANY kind would have ENDED on 7/27/24;

She was NEVER given any vaccines, including parvo/distemper, lepto, bordetella or rabies.

She was documented visually, medically as "deteriorating," showing signs (which is an understatement) of stress, self-mutilation, injury, etc.;

We walked away with paperwork, saying she was spayed and with microchip ONLY (we'll get to the spayed part below)

She was picked up/rescued this afternoon by our trusted transport with behavioral/training experience as we didn't know what to expect. The fact that he wasn't allowed in her kennel before transport to assess how she was doing or get a feel for who she was beforehand was alarming.

But she came willingly. She wanted and craved love, was easy temperament, easy to leash, easy to walk, BUT WAS BEYOND HIGHLY STRESSED.

She was IMMEDIATELY taken to emergency admittance with medical boarding capabilities at a vet clinic 10 minutes away from the shelter so as to minimize her stressors. This vet team is amazing, btw. We will share/recommend them once she has departed. 

The vet did an extensive review of her condition. We ordered f***l, urinalysis, heartworm, parvo/distemper, vaccines full blood workup, physical exam, xrays, ultrasound (if they could perform) - all the things Here is what we have learned:

She has been estimated to be between 7-8 years of age;

She weighs 75 pounds - light but not alarming;

Courtesy Post!

Let's find this girl, the best home!!!

Meet Tali!!
She is a 1y 10m old female Border Collie mix. She is 30 lbs, spayed, and microchipped. Tali is good with adults and children and loves to play fetch, swim, and go hiking. She is fun and energetic, needing lots of exercise and mental stimulation. She is also good with our cat (unsure about livestock, chickens, etc). She knows many commands and has gone through obedience classes. Tali is house and crate trained, and very good for any grooming. She is up to date on all vaccinations and parasite prevention.

Tali has developed progressive resource guarding with our other dogs (dogs only, never people). Most of the time she gets along great with them and loves to play with our other Border Collie, but over the past few months she has had an increase in her reactivity over food, certain toys, and spaces. She would be best suited in an only dog household.

If you or someone you know is interested in this sweet girl, please reach out, and we will provide you contact information.
