Happy Friday! Prepare for your hearts to melt over The Cutest Pittie Puppies you have EVER SEEN!! 🥹

Meet our Cartoon Litter with Mama #2, Ariel! Mama was trapped as a stray by HARTT and saved from going to the shelter by a wonderful volunteer who fostered her until we could bring her into PPZ.

We are OBSESSED with these puppies!! 😍🤩😆 They are the roundest, plumpest, roly-poly puppies ever!
Lady - F (pre-adopted)
Pluto - M
Odie - M
Snoopy - M
Scooby - M

This litter is about 4 weeks old, and we will be accepting applications SOON. 😍 Stay tuned for some adorable videos as they start to eat mush and explore the big world around them. 🥰

✨ You GLOW, Girl! ✨

Remember Baby Rhea? (If not, check out her sad story from her previous post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18VqMDLFMw/?)

Just LOOK at this GLOW UP! 🤩

Rhea is now 3 months old, house trained, and the most dog-friendly puppy you’ve ever met. 🐶🐕🐩 She is a WILD ONE 👹 and spends her entire day wrestling, chasing, tackling, chewing, and wreaking havoc on the entire household. 😂 Rhea loves walks, toys, treats, DOGS, and mischief! 🦮 🦴 🎾 🍖 🐶 😈

Rhea has some separation anxiety, so she will do best in a home with another high energy dog who is ready to PLAY ALL DAY! 🐶 ➕ 🐶 The exercise burns off the energy to help her relax when her people leave. She calms down after a few minutes in her kennel, and having a doggie friend nearby helps.

This hilarious little handful keeps us laughing all day long, and we absolutely adore her! 😍 She will be the perfect addition to any playful pack, and we can’t wait to see who is lucky enough to scoop her up.

Applications to meet Rhea at www.poundpuppyz.com! 🖤

Dearest Followers,
We’ve had it pretty damn rough in rescue the past few weeks. 😭 FAR too much heartbreak. 💔 15 lost puppies, our #1 beloved pup Sid passing, and the day-to-day medical needs have been truly staggering.

Thanks to YOU — this incredibly compassionate, generous, and caring community — we have somehow kept our heads just above water. We’re not in the clear, but because of your IMMEDIATE and generous donations, we were able to pay off Sid‘s bill this weekend. 🥹

We struggle to find the right words to express our overwhelming gratitude. It is humbling to see how much you all care about these pups - as much as we do!

We are still deeply grieving the amount of death we have had to process over the past few weeks, but when the financial pressures loomed over us as well, it was almost unbearable.

Because you responded so quickly, generously, and thoughtfully, we were able to pay off some debt this weekend, and we just cannot say thank you enough. You removing this tremendous financial burden from us enables our rescue to continue supporting the 38 puppies, 6 mamas, and 12+ pups who depend on us.

We CANNOT say THANK YOU enough. 🙏🏼😭

We will return to regularly scheduled programming soon. We have sooo many teeth-achingly cute puppies and videos to show you. 😍😆 Keep an eye on our STORIES for the most regular postings of the cuuutest pups we’ve ever seen.

Sharing new media of puppies and fosters doesn’t mean we’ve moved on from such heartbreaking losses.

It’s just one way to cope.

THANK YOU for caring about Cashmere, the babies, and Sid. 💔
THANK YOU for supporting our dogs.
THANK YOU for the condolences and words of comfort.
THANK YOU for every single dollar sent when it mattered most.
We cannot do it without you, and we are humbled by your generosity.

Love,
Pound PuppyZ 🐶 ♥️ 🐾

Our precious, perfect Sid did not make it. Our best boy crossed the rainbow bridge this afternoon. 😭💔

We are devastated beyond words. The sobs don’t stop. It is the cruelest pain, and the mix of deep grief, anger, confusion, unfairness, and profound loss is agonizing.

Thank you for giving us the chance to save him. AVECCC did every single thing they could. We cannot even process what the bills will look like after today, but right now, we just cry for Sid and his foster mama - the very best mama who saved him from the E-list, nursed him back to health, and doted on his every need, loving him like her own. Please send her your love as she grieves.

Our silliest, sweetest, goofiest boy - we will never stop missing you. The hole you leave behind will ache in our hearts forever. It still doesn’t seem real. HOW?? WHY!! The pain seethes through the sobs.

We are gutted to the core. Thank you for allowing us the time to grieve this tremendous loss.

😭 Update: Our precious baby boy has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. The grief is overwhelming.

————————————————————-

🙏🏼 Facebook won’t let us see all the names of the donors on the fundraiser, otherwise we would be thanking you directly. We used to be able to click on it and see, but not anymore.

THANK YOU for your help. We are exhausted and stressed about our finances, but your care and financial support means everything to us while we process our heartbreaking loss. Thank you for caring about and loving Sid. 💔

————————————————————-

💔 PLEASE HELP 😭 We are very scared - Sid is at the emergency hospital.

Last night around midnight, his foster noticed him drooling excessively. He started foaming at the mouth so she rushed him to AVECCC. He let go of his bowels as the vet team rushed him back, started fluids, and assessed him.

Sid collapsed and was struggling to breath. He had a fever of 106° and was lethargic. He continue to deficate and urinate uncontrolled. They found fluids in his lungs that he aspirated causing his breathing to crackle.

We are desperate to help him. We burned through $2,400 already with another $2,800 due by noon. Sid is worth every penny, but this could not have come at a worse time.

PLEASE HELP. We are literally begging. 😭 He can pull through this, but we are drowning. Thank you for every dollar that you can donate. 💔

Please pray for Sid. We are sick with stress over this. We cannot lose our silliest, happiest boy, not after all he’s been through.

We need the donations more than ever ➡️ Linktr.ee/PoundPuppyz

Well, Miss Sienna (Mama #6) sure gave us multiple false alarms, keeping her foster mama up several nights as she huffed, puffed, nested, and paced.. but to no avail. 😏

Our favorite lil faker held out as long as she could, but sweet Sienna finally delivered TEN BABIES! 😆

Thankfully, Mama and all ten pups are doing well — all rooting, wiggling, and latching. Sienna is one proud mama and doting on all of her babies. 🥰

😮‍💨 SIX litters in three weeks. 😅 We are as exhausted as our precious mamas.

Stay tuned for Puppy Palooza 2024 updates. 🥰

LOOK AT OUR BABY BUTTERS!! 🤩😍🥳 He WALKED ON A LEASH yesterday — two whole blocks of WALKING! 🎉🎉🎉

It’s been three+ weeks of on/off trying to get this adorable Butterball to walk on a leash, and the second he felt the tiniest bit of pressure, he would pancake to the ground in fear and NOT move. 🥺 His foster spent almost 2 weeks carrying him down to the greenbelt near their house and back home just to get him accustomed to being outside of the house and backyard.

Remember, poor Butters grew up in a backyard with zero socialization before we got him. 😠 He LOVES all people and dogs, but the big outside world has been too much for him - until now. 😎

The whole world is opening up for him! 🥹 His foster mama will keep building his confidence until he can cruise down the street instead of creep.

WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU, BUTTER BEAN!! 🤩🤩

Butters adores every person and dog he’s ever met, so if you are committed to expanding his world and encouraging his confidence every day, put in an app at www.poundpuppyz.com. You won’t be sorry. 🥰

Meet (Storm) Trooper! 🤍 He is a 4 month old DEAF husky/Jack Russell(cattle?) mix with the most beautiful blue eyes! 🩵👀🩵 This poor pup was abandoned outdoors up north in FREEZING temperatures and was lucky enough to hitch a ride with a compassionate rescuer to us.

Trooper is learning all of his commands and can already sit and come with hand signals - so smart! 🧠 He is still a puppy, but he loves learning new things, especially when treats are involved. 🍖

Trooper gets along with other dogs and cats in his foster home, and he the number one welcoming committee when company comes over. 🐶 🐱 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 Food, toys, and cuddles are his love languages, and he is waiting patiently for the perfect family to scoop him up. 🫶🏻

Being deaf means nothing other than he can’t hear. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Trooper is a normal dog in every other way: happy, playful, eager to learn, and eager for love. 💗

We are so thankful that Serenity’s babies are thriving. 🙏🏼 We have lost 12 puppies in 3 weeks, and the sadness aches on. 💔 Thankfully, Serenity’s 1️⃣2️⃣ are healthy and strong! She is the best mama to them, even as she fights off her own cold.

We are excited to pick a litter theme and name these babies in the next week or so. They will be ready for their furever homes in 5-6 weeks. 🏡

Remember: a puppy is not a Christmas present. ❌ 🎁 These dogs are a 12-15 year commitment that will cost you thousands in food/supplies, basic healthcare, and possibly unexpected veterinary bills. They are absolutely darling, but that doesn’t mean that a puppy is the right choice for you if you’re planning on returning it as soon as you have a baby, move, get a cuter puppy, or just get bored of it. 😒 We see it all the time - ESPECIALLY 2-3 months after the holidays.

However, if you’re looking for a darling puppy “to have to hold until death do us part” for the next decade+ of your life, we’d love for you to meet Serenity’s darling litter when the time is right. Until then, turn your volume up and enjoy all of the puppy grunts, whines, and sighs - ADORABLE! 🥰

Today we are thankful for so many things: our fosters and volunteers who make rescue possible, our faithful followers, our generous donors, that Cashmere is safely on the mend… ❤️‍🩹

And one of the greatest blessings we are thankful for are the two precious bottle babies who were entrusted to us from Arf-anage Rescue. Cashmere accepted them immediately and will not let these precious 4-day-old babies out of her sight for even a minute. She has stopping crying and searching for her lost puppies and instead, spends every minute nurturing and mothering these precious two. 🥰

Her deeply devoted Foster Mama is bottlefeeding since Cashmere is not producing much milk. Cashmere doesn’t even want the babies out of the pool for that but allows the help, so FM bottle feeds babies right where Cashy can see. 🥹

We are thrilled to be able to give Cashmere the babies she so deeply longed for and grieved over. 🥲

In the meantime, we are still struggling to pay the $6,000+ bill we incurred this weekend. If you are able to help, we would be incredibly grateful. 🙏🏼

After some rough days in rescue ⛈️, we needed some sunshine, and there is NOTHING BRIGHTER than the news we have to share today: ☀️

TYSON HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🥳🤩🎊🎉🙌🏼😍

Our longest resident, our PPZ mascot, our most handsome boy - after a year and a half in rescue you have found a WONDERFUL home with parents and a brother who love you as much as we do.

Yes, we’re crying again but with the HAPPIEST OF TEARS! 😭🥲

Congratulations, TyTy 🥳 This is where you’re meant to be, and we are THRILLED for you! 🥹

There are good days and bad days in rescue, and this weekend brought some of the worst.

- Late Saturday, one of Skye’s puppies (Clara Bow) stopped eating, starting wailing, and became lethargic. We suspected neck trauma and tried bottle feeding, but she would not latch.
- Cashmere went into labor on Saturday night, giving birth to 4 stillborn pups in a traumatic way. We are not going to post the truly horrific details. 😭
- Both Cashmere and Clara Bow were rushed to the emergency vet Sunday morning where it was confirmed that Cashmere’s remaining 3 unborn puppies were deceased. Poor Mama was unable to deliver the last 3 pups, even with the help of medication, and she required an emergency cesarean before she went septic.
- Clara Bow was released several hours later and went home with another foster, but she later passed that night.🪽

Our hearts are broken. 8 puppies. We fought so hard to save them, only to lose them all within 24 hours. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

Cashmere is utterly devastated and in deep grief. She won't eat and is crying out for her babies, searching for them everywhere. Her foster had already named the babies after the 7 Dwarfs because of mama’s beautiful Snow White coat: Happy, D***y, Sneezy, Sleepy, Grumpy, Bashful, and Doc.🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽

Our hearts are bleeding for these tiny lives that ended too early and our grieving momma who lost her entire family. We have cried all weekend alongside our Mamas.

Our efforts to save these babies cost the rescue over $6,000. The debt feels crippling, and we are stressing even more now than when we pulled the six mamas to start. 😞 If you are able to help, we would be incredibly grateful.
