USA Cavalier King Rescue Trust

Chasing butterfly's. Rory's new found love.♥️

It's me, Rory again. I've been learning a lot this week. #46 of us were owner surrendered and we are all living a different life now, thanks to you! It's taking me, and most of us, time to learn that our new foster mom's and dad's want us to come to them and in the house. Hesitant about it, but I love the treats for getting close!! Once we get in we are loving it, the comfy beds, the soft blankets, the treats. Did I mention treats....nom nom..... #ItsAllAboutTheDogs

In October, 2016, Rusty (age 11) was surrendered to us because he was skin and bones with constant diarrhea. There was not an ounce of fat on his body and every single bone, including his hip bones stuck out noticeably. He had no energy. He was literally starving to death and had a voracious appetite. Thanks to the Rescue Angels, Rusty was given a second chance at life. After numerous tests, he was diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency ("EPI"). He needed Vitamin B12 injections and required enzymes added to his food so that his body could actually absorb the nutrients. Rusty lived a wonderful, happy life (15 years old!), until recently, when his abdomen started filling up with fluid. His belly was tapped and they took 1 liter of fluid off him, but then the edema started everywhere else on his body. With tears, his foster family held him as he painlessly left this world for the next. We all know he's dancing now and can eat anything his heart desires without consequence. RIP Rusty, until we meet again!

Cooper learning to use his ramp!

Here's Cooper in California learning to use his new ramp to help him get on the couch so he can snuggle with his foster mom. Way to go Cooper! Cooper is a special boy looking for a special forever home, is that you? Help Cooper by sharing this post. He needs a home with no stairs. Cooper has IVDD and has had surgery, his rear legs are not as strong. He doesn't let that curtail him though as you can see!
