Peyton's Place Animal Rescue, an AJL Rescue

Banana’s story. We pick up a group of surrendered Doxie from a facility. They ask “would you want these two?” Both adult males can’t walk. Of course the responses is “we want those two the most!” First one has some function and responded quickly with therapy. It was muscle wasting Issue. Rather easily fixed by our vet with some meds and exercise with the foster. All good. Banana was in poor shape. He was basically paralyzed. And incontinent. You had to lift him so he could potty. We considered a drag bag. We got him wheels. They helped teach him how to walk. He went to a great foster kind of far away, after the vet told us he would likely never walk. But the wheels helped build strength. Then foster got him up on all fours without wheels. His legs showed real life. Back to Nj to the only pet physical therapy place we know of. Water treadmills, meds and other treatment and this guy is now zooming around. He will be special needs forever. He may regress when he gets older. But this happy guy can go potty without needing a bath. And he gets up on hiss own and walks!! He has no pain. He’s getting stronger. His foster is doing great with him. He is a saucy guy. Banana is exactlyy why we do this. And exactly why we have benefactor dogs who’s adoption fees help pay for this level of treatment. #whodidyousavetoday?

In 6 days Frances has gone from 5.7 pounds to 6.4! Which Is awesome for such a littlelw monkey! We've gotten so many nasty people telling us to euthanize Frances because they saw a video of her nodding off during her nebulizer treatment. It's so disheartening that there are such rude, judgmental people out there that would make such comments on a rescue page without knowinging her story or speaking to her vet. Frances is gaining strength every day. She's a happy girl whose tail never stops wagging. And she's constantly making us smile with her progress, even though it's been only 6 days. We are not giving up on her and we are not euthanizing her just because it would be the "easy" thing to do. we never do things to avoid the work. However, when it's her time and she's in pain or suffering or too tired, we will make that decision if nature doesn't take its course. Right now, she's only getting better! She was found as a stray and taken to the shelter. We pulled her out to assess and give her a chance. And she's thriving! So to all those nasty Nellie's out there, take your opinions elsewhere. They aren't wanted here. Here's a cute video of dinner tonight ❤️🥰🐾

Foster found This is our four-year-old mama goldendoodle. She is super sweet but will be a little bit shy for the first couple of days. She walks on the lead very nicely. She's dog friendly. https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/become-a-foster/ FOSTER TO ADOPT IS OK! Foster to adopt means you do the application as if you were going to adopt (foster app is basicslly the same as is screening process). You foster the dog so it stays in out care unril her soay appointment and she is all clear. Then you say “i want to adopt, and assuming all is ok, we accept sne you pay her adoption fee (known in advance) and sign the adoption agreement and voila! You have a pet. And if you decide you don’t want to keep her, we lost for an adopter and ahe stays with you until adopted. She is amazing. Also needs a name. A partner rescue got a call, breeder wanted to surrender a momma and a baby (unrelated) and asked if we can help because their transport was full - so we helped by picking up this beautiful girl. Which is awesome, because rescues are supposed to work with each other to coordinate to get the dogs out. We do thebsame thing and it’s beautiful. And look, in this mini doodle suoerdownsized world, the reality is that the standards are often harder to place. It shouldn’t be. She is the most incredible dog. This girl is perfect. This is literally her first few minutes after landing with us. She is attentive, walks pretty darn well on a leash. And has probably 3/4 of her life ahead of her to make your family happy.

Frances slept til 10am. She's wide awake and ready for her day! She wanted to say good morning!

Frances says to everybody saying she should be put to sleep because she's miserable and suffering, you can kindly kiss her rear end. She is happy and wagging her tail and getting lots of love and good food and laying on her nice soft pillow. Have the day you deserve. 

Special foster needed

EDIT all of your Internet veterinarians that are telling us we need to put this dog down are really driving us crazy. This dog is under medical care. She's seeing our doctors and she's doing fine. If you look at the newest video of her we just posted, she's eating her tails wagging she's happy she's moving on her own. There is nothing suffering about this dog. I'm simply giving her a breathing treatment in this video below. And by the way, I have asthma and take breathing treatments myself. Guess who's nebulizer she's using? Mine. So if seeing the dog with a nebulizer treatment is triggering you so much that you think she needs to be put to sleep, you have some serious issues. Stop with the negative comments because this dog is loved more than a lot of people. Shame on you rhisnis what hospice care is. Have a day. Frances saw our vet today and the prognosis isn't great. He believes that she may have cancer in her throat and be in kidney failure. But because she is so extremely underweight, any type of anesthesia to do any surgery or testing is not in the cards for her. So we are treating the symptoms with albuterol in the nebulizer a few times a day and antibiotics and yummy soft food, with an additional med to try and reduce the swelling in her throat. Her eyes are bad but doc said non painful. We are treating with ointment to try and reduce inflammation. We are looking for a foster that will most likely be a hospice foster. Somebody that is home all day or a lot of the day that can just cuddle with her and give her the love and attention she so deserves. We pulled her knowing she’s had a lot going on. We knew it may just be a hospice situation and thats Ok. Foster has to keep a close eye on her for quality if life issues. Shes not having any pain currently . The eyes have to stay lubed. Your lap has to stay warm! If you are interested in fostering this sweet little girl, please let us know. The rescue covers all of her m

🙂 Frances is in her foster home! She's eaten dinner and had some medicine. Tomorrow bloodwork. She's nested in her fluffy blankets (thanks to whoever donated them) and she's comfy and out of the shelter. She's literally skin and bone. Not an ounce of meat on her little body. So slow and steady feedings to get her used to eating again. Welcome, sweet girl! Thanks to AHS-Newark Branch for taking her in and keeping her safe! We will do our best to make her happy the rest of the way! ❤️ Stay tuned for updates on the sweetest little girl! *Meant to say zero fat not zero skin on her body in the video.
