As many of you have heard the story of Teddy, it’s obvious that I work for a veterinary hospital. We have 6 dogs, they’ve all come from situations like Teddys!

This girl came through our hospital recently and I had to help her. I had to. I called in a favor and had a rescue come pick her up after her stray hold. She’s the SWEETEST thing and she needs help! Pebbles deserves a second chance…a happy ever after. I could post 400 similar situations everyday, but I try to save these kinds of posts to ones that have my heart.

If you can donate, amazing! If you can’t, Pebbles (and I) would appreciate a share!

Can you make some room in your heart and home for a shelter pup? If so, now’s the time! Without immediate dog adoptions, Tulsa Animal Welfare Pets is going to be facing some extremely tough decisions regarding euthanasia in the coming days.

Tulsa Animal Welfare (TAW) is majorly over capacity with TONS of great, highly adoptable dogs of all sizes. They have big dogs, small dogs, and so many puppies!

Adoptions are needed daily through Sunday from 2 to 6 p.m. at Tulsa Animal Welfare, 3031 N. Erie Ave., Tulsa.

In addition to waived adoption fees for approved adopters now through July 31, OAA is teaming up with TAW to offer a new pet starter pack, which includes free goodies like a free veterinary wellness exam with a nail trim, bed, pet food, treats and more.

Every dog is fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to snuggle.

Please stop by the city shelter, meet a new friend, and save a life!

☀️EXTREME HEAT ALERT☀️

Extreme high temperatures are expected this week in Oklahoma. Please make sure you take the proper precautions to protect pets and livestock.

▪️ Keep pets indoors and limit exercise.
▪️ Provide access to shade and fresh, clean, cool water when outside.
▪️ Watch for signs of heat stroke (heavy panting, racing heart, stumbling, weakness, vomiting, diarrhea, seizing, etc.) and take your pet to a veterinarian immediately if symptoms occur.
▪️ Keep pets off of hot sidewalks, driveways, and pavement.
▪️ Don't leave pets in a hot car for ANY amount of time.
▪️ If you're hot, they're hot. Keep them cool! Even short bursts of air-conditioning will help them stay comfortable.

If you see an animal in distress and suffering in the heat, report it to your local animal control or law enforcement agency. OAA and Unchain OK volunteers are responding to as many calls/texts/emails/messages as we can.

If you're in a position to offer help to a pet or pet owner, OAA can support you with supplies and advice. The more people helping, the better!

It's time to start thinking about July 4th and pets. ❤🤍💙 Fireworks (and the chaos of large gatherings) can be incredibly scary for pets.

More pets go missing around July 4th than any other time of the year, so it’s important to take precautions. Here are a few tips to keep your pets safe and secure while celebrating:

• Keep pets indoors away from loud noises and flashing lights.
• Make them a safe space with blankets, toys, and comfort items. Consider turning on a TV or radio to drown out the noise.
• Try calming aids, like chewy treats or bully sticks, a Thundershirt, or medications if needed. Check with your veterinarian NOW about prescriptions.
• Make sure doors and windows are secure and scared pets can’t bolt out an open door or window.
• Keep party food and alcohol out of pets’ reach. It’s tempting to give them bites of yummy things, but certain foods can be toxic and/or cause pancreatitis.
• Ensure microchips are up to date and pet ID tags are readable and securely fastened to a properly-fitted collar.
• Clean up firework debris and make sure gates are secure before letting pets into the yard.

Can you help save these little souls?

I think this is a fabulous idea and Oklahoma Alliance for Animals would be the PERFECT organization to donate too!

Oklahoma Alliance for Animals is the reason Teddy got a second chance. They’re the reason lots of unwanted pets get second chances.

They offer so many programs, from offering dog food to their Unchain Oklahoma project. They will literally go and put a fence up so that the dog can be free from living on a chain. Watching those videos of those guys running free in their yards for the first time hits me right in the feels every time.

This is an awesome deal! A matched donation! Any amount you’re willing to donate, is doubled! Please consider giving the gift of second chances to other dogs just like Teddy!

We have some HUGE news ... from now until Saturday, December 4 every donation made to OAA will be matched dollar for dollar up to $50,000! You can DOUBLE your impact and your donation! Your $25 donation becomes $50 ... your $100 donation becomes $200 ...

We are so grateful for wonderful, generous OAA supporters who have come forward and are matching our Giving Tuesday donations up to $50,000! If we meet our goal, we will raise $100,000!

Starting tomorrow, we will be highlighting OAA's programs and resources for pets and pet parents. We're often asked what all OAA does, and we want to give you a glimpse into the far-reaching programs and services we offer the community.

We want you to know how much your support means to us and how your donations help so many pets in Tulsa and across Oklahoma.

Let's kick start this to raise $100,000 total! Please consider making a tax-deductible donation below, online at https://animalallianceok.networkforgood.com/projects/147754-giving-tuesday-2021, via PayPal at https://www.paypal.me/OKAnimalAlliance, or via Venmo .

Oklahoma Alliance for Animals works tirelessly for animals JUST LIKE TEDDY!

They were 100% responsible for his second chance at life.

In the winter, you will find their volunteers working tirelessly to make sure that pets in chains have dog houses with straw, fresh water and food! In the summer, they pass out dog pools and other ways to help give pets shade.

These folks are INCREDIBLE!

I know there are a lot of crazy things happening right now, but they could really use some community help so they can continue to keep up the good fight!

Our pet food pantry is nearly out of dry dog AND cat food again. 😭 Can you help us restock it?

Demand is higher now than ever before. We distribute more than 500-1,000 lbs. of dry dog and cat food through our office nearly every week. We are asked daily by frantic pet parents for help feeding their pets, and we don't want to have to turn anyone away.

Please consider donating to OAA's Pet Food Pantry! Here's how:

1. Purchase dry dog/cat food from our Amazon Wishlist. It will ship directly to our door. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/UKBHP1ISBGH2?ref_=wl_share

2. Purchase dry dog/cat food from Chewy/Sam's/Walmart, and have it shipped to OAA, 5321 S. Sheridan Rd., Ste. 30, Tulsa, OK 74145

3. Purchase dry dog or cat food at your local store and deliver to our office during business hours (M-F, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.). Text (918) 917-9687 to arrange a drop off time.

4. Make a donation below or via www.animalallianceok.org/donate!
