Little Parsnip at the vet getting her monthly Librela shot. She takes Gabapentin daily as well, to control her pain. We still don’t entirely understand her issues but suspect it could be something autoimmune since it’s stumped our vets so far. She’s been doing pretty well the last couple weeks, minus this odd skin outbreak that causes her hair to fall out in big clumps. She has a special shampoo that seems to calm her skin, but not stop the reaction.

We can really use your help with these monthly expenses that keep her comfortable. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today for her medical care:

Meet Midnight, our resident charmer and wild boy all in one!

Midnight was adopted from WDR as a kitten, but was returned to us a few months back due to a change in circumstance of the adopters. Thank goodness an amazing foster family stepped up for Mr. Midnight, and he’s been making himself right at home ever since!

We love heartwarming ALUMNI updates! Wendy (fka Zazu) adopters praise her endlessly, contrasting sharply with the negative remarks her previous owners made to the shelter, claiming she was aggressive towards their child. Originally abandoned at Bonita shelter just weeks before her 8th birthday, along with her AKC pedigree certificate along with uneducated & detrimental comments, Wendy, is now a wonderful, gentle, and goofy senior dog loved dearly by her new family, especially Walter. They can't imagine life without her! 💓

Great news! Duke's heart was strong enough for anesthesia, allowing us to address his mouth infections. He had a whopping 28 extractions & we were able to treat some hidden lesions with Dr. Weldon & her wonderful staff at the Animal Dental Clinic. The procedure coster over $2,000. Please consider donating to support Duke! 🙏🏻🐾

It’s $5 February 1st 🩷 donation day, and this lil foster gal, Parsnip, could really use some support!

She's had to head to the vet AGAIN today due to a reaction to an antibiotic. She has Vasculitis and badly inflamed skin 😢
The Doc has given her some steroids and a special soap. Let's send Parsnip all good vibes that she will turn the corner soon and head into better health!

We know that when everyone gives just a little, it goes a long way ❤️‍🩹🐾 and we so appreciate your support!!

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of any amount toward her medical bills:

Therapy shout out! 💚
Duke used to wake up terrified and screaming. It was scary for us and his foster. We questioned if it was fair to keep him with us. Despite no clear cause, vets suspected nerve pain. Thanks to Dr. Rapp & Acupuncture, Duke no longer suffers these episodes and is thriving! Check out his neon green acupuncture pins. We like to think he's styling while thriving!

The kitties are safe! Thank you all for supporting and sharing! One of our most awesome foster families stepped for these babies, and they are settling in to their temporary home now! ❤️❤️❤️

The owner of the kitties has asked for help, to give him some time to get settled in his new situation and see if he can bring the kitties along with him. So our amazing foster mama has agreed to care for the kitties in the meantime, and we are going to try to keep this family together! Stay tuned, we will update you when we have more news!

Thank you all so much for coming together to help keep this kitties safe and sound! ❤️🐈‍⬛❤️

We need your help!! We have been given 5 days to find these two sweeties a place to land before their owner drops them at a shelter 💔😭🙏

These two are Magic and Midnight, we rescued them almost 4 years ago, and unfortunately their adopters have had some life changes and the kitties now need a new home. Can you foster these two? The black one is a boy and the gray one is a girl, they have previously lived with dogs. This is an old photo from when they were still babies, we will post a current photo as soon as we have one!

Please send an email to [email protected] asap if you can foster these cuties!

Please share to help find a place for these two to land! ❤️🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

It’s coyote mating season. Simple actions can keep your pet and our wild canine neighbors safe.

1. Stay alert to your surroundings.
2. Do not leave your pet unattended in the backyard, especially small dogs and cats.
3. Keep your dog on leash while walking in areas with coyote warnings.
4. Pick up your dog’s p**p. It can attract coyotes.

Birdie was deeply attached to her foster mom and thrived despite undergoing three major surgeries: a mammoth tumor removal, a significant hernia repair, and knee surgery. She would affectionately gaze at her mom and even attempt to tuck her in by pulling up the covers. Unfortunately, a traumatic experience at the vet's office led to a fatal heart attack from which she couldn't recover. Her absence is still felt deeply but we never give up.

In 2019, Queen Elizabeth was found with severe mats that caused skin damage. Initially, we believed she was simply a fluffy dog in need of care before finding a permanent home. However, it became clear that she suffered from a form of canine dementia, leaving her mostly blind & deaf. She spent her remaining days in a hospice foster home. We do everything we can to keep our hospice foster dogs comfortable and show them love until the end!
