Adapt Rescue / A Doberman Adoption Placement Team

One of the harder parts of hospice is losing a friend. Today Hudson lost his Betsie, the "boss" she who brought him joy and made him feel alive. I lost a girl who showed me love and who overcame serious health limitations to stay here for a year and thrive. Wobblers is a hard disease that robs them of their independence and dignity. She fought to keep both. Today I gave her back to God and held her as she made that journey. Find the stars beautiful girl and chase the moon. You're whole again and strong. I've told Hudson you'd come around him often and lend him courage when he needs it. I know you will. Thank you for your friendship and love, fly high sweet baby

Many of you have seen the post about Jillian . She was a loved girl at 10 years old and removed from her loving owners home after he passed and put outside in the Texas heat.... with nowhere to go. She was fed and watered once a day by family members but that isn't the life of any dog, especially one that's been faithful for ten years. She truly has nowhere to call home anymore. She arrived last evening at Adapt Rescue / A Doberman Adoption Placement Team and is under the care of the Lehmberg home for her fur-ever sanctuary. She is a very sad case.... She's very confused, she seemingly has mammary tumors will have to be fully vetted..... Each of them deserves to be loved and cared for and they are here, no matter what needs done.

Being an ADAPT fur baby rarely ever is a matter of convenience. Almost every single dog in the rescue is a special needs / medical case. It is their safety for fur-ever for many as these cases are overlooked and not adopted. Like all rescues , the struggle is real and the finances are tight .

Here, we believe that every dog deserves the same promise of safety and we truly do what we can. While we wish we could save them all, we cannot. People often say that they are lucky to be saved . Truth is , it is us that are lucky to be the ones to be loved by them . There truly is no other appreciation and gratitude like those truly in need.

Welcome to the family Julian. We will be your final chapter and love you until the end. ❤️ . the only thing that you will have to endure for the rest of your days is love , security and care.

Thank you to all that helped her to safety . It truly takes teamwork. Thank you to those who support us .

Valuable information:

Did you know that albuterol inhalers can be very toxic to dogs and cats if they chew on the inhaler and accidentally ingest the medication?

Our Ann Arbor, MI, hospital shared this story to help pet owners understand the potential dangers of their pet getting ahold of an inhaler:
"This perfect Doberman was being a little mischievous and got ahold of her owner's inhaler. Her owners called the Pet Poison Helpline and headed straight to our ER after being instructed to do so by the toxicologist. She presented with clinical signs of tachycardia (increased heart rate), agitation/anxiety, and hypertension (high blood pressure) - all to be expected with albuterol ingestion. After being hospitalized for 24 hours with ECG monitoring and medications to treat the tachycardia and hypertension, she was sleeping in her own bed by the following evening!"

If you suspect your pet was exposed to something potentially poisonous, act fast! Seek veterinary care immediately and call Pet Poison Helpline at (800) 213-6680.

While there is no foolproof ownership, too often, dogs end up lost, hurt, in shelters or worse . Our shelters are full. Our rescues are full. The amount of strays is taking away space at shelters and so many dogs are being euthanized because ownership duties are just simply overlooked more than it should. When a person purchases or adopts a pet, it is their due diligence to ensure that they do everything in their power to protect the pet. While some things are unplanned and unavoidable , a backup plan is crucial. Keeping your pet up to date with microchips, ID tags , even a rabies tag or dog license can help them find their way home.

We don't control the shelters or who is chosen to live or not ... We save them when nobody else steps up for them....and THAT is our goal. We don't control animal control. We don't make the law. We are simply here to pick up when there is nobody down the line...to save lives and maybe that doesn't make us the most popular kid on the block.

We cannot stress the importance of responsibility. It truly saves lives when we live in a day that euthanasia is the only solution that overwhelmed shelters have . Help solve the problem one person at a time...not create more . We have so many wonderful parents as followers but unfortunately many people remain irresponsible or uneducated. If you know someone who potentially needs reminded or educated, please , reach out to them. Save a life one at a time.

Every dog that comes into Adapt Rescue / A Doberman Adoption Placement Team is loved and very well cared for . And I promise you, it's better than the shelter that they come from . The dog appreciates it.
