FRANK THE TANK SURGERY UPDATE!

When Frank was at Urgent Care on New Years Day, they took blood before sedating him, and his liver levels were high. Well, today, they were normal! 🎉
The ear, the vet was afraid she would have to crop if it didn't heal right, ended up healing perfectly, and didn't need surgery! 🎉
Staples in his other ear came out! 🎉
Reattaching his gums to his jaw went great, and he is on a soft food diet until they heal! 🎉
His fractured toe should be healed up, so she removed his cast so the bite wounds on that leg can now scab up! 🎉
Last of all, he was neutered and vaccinated! 🎉
Thank you Dr. Smith at Taylor Animal Hospital of Smithville for fixing up our boy!❤️🐾
He's still limping a bit, but we are hoping that gets better once he gets used to walking on it again.
He's back at the foster home tonight, resting, and Monday, we will post him for adoption. If you're interested in meeting him next week, please send us a message here, and we can work with the foster parents' schedule and yours. Please don't call us this weekend, as we are closed.

We are thankful for all the support this community has given this guy! He's a special boy for sure!

Have a great weekend!

We named this little girl Mariah and we haven't heard from any owners. She is scheduled for her spay and vaccines on Monday morning, so after that, we will post her up for adoption.
We have learned she needs a home without little kids. She is VERY nervous around little ones. Haven't had a chance to test with other dogs or cats.

Frank the Tank Update!

He is doing great at his foster home. It's been difficult getting him outside to potty with the snow and having the cover his cast so it wouldn't get wet. They are amazing fosters, and we are so grateful for them!
His wounds are healing, and he has just a couple more days of antibiotics. He has a vet appt on Friday in the hopes that he can have the surgery to fix his mouth and also get him neutered while he's under.
Fingers (and paws) crossed 🤞the vet is able to work her magic on Friday and get this guy fixed up!

Frank is very much a morning person....NOT!
He just wants to nap all day long with his people! 😴
