Woodstock Spay and Neuter Clinic

This post is long overdue. I kept telling myself I wasn't featuring Blondie because it was more important to feature the dogs in other foster homes. But if I am being totally honest I didn't feature her because I love her and she loves me. And moving her to her forever home scares me and makes me sad.

But Blondie deserves more than I can give her in my home. And that's what rescue is about, keeping them safe in our homes until we can find them their perfect forever homes.

Blondie is an amazing dog. She is German Shepherd through and through. Sensitive and stubborn, hard headed and loyal. She and I have butted heads over the last 8 months, but through training and time she has become a wonderful companion. There is one thing we haven't been able to overcome to make her perfect for our home and that is her prey drive. While she is trained to listen to me, I will never feel comfortable letting her free range in my home with my little dogs. Because of this she spends way too much time in a down stay command, both here at the clinic and at my home.

My dreams for Blondie? A home and an owner she can bond with like she has with me. Blondie wants to be with her person more than anything else in life. Someone who can give her guidance but also more freedom.

Blondie is housebroken and crated trained but honestly doesn't need to be crated.
She would do great in a home with one other dog her size, preferably a submissive male.
Blondie can not go to a home with smaller dogs, cats, or other small animals. She will go after them.
Definitely a home with shepherd experience and someone looking for a dog to actively work with as far as training.

Blondie is located in Lexington ky.

Please share.

❤️ ❤️ ❤️

We agreed to help this boy on Monday. Honestly thought, based on symptoms and location, that is would be a parvo diagnosis, which we are oh so familiar with.

He has been hospitalized since Monday night. Parvo test was negative. He did have a fever of 106 upon arrival at the hospital and was in critical condition.
Update last night was he was stable but "not out of the woods yet". Diagnosis is still unconfirmed.

Prayers for this boy please. Finders named him Fox.

We have no idea yet what his medical bill will be but donations are greatly appreciated.

Jelly, Belle, and Tulsie came in for their spay and neuter today and will be ready to go to their forever homes this weekend.

We do have several applications on file that we are working on but if you are interested in adopting one please get your application in soon!

Adoption fee for puppies is 250 and application can be submitted at https://www.woodstockanimalfoundation.org/adopt-a-dog/

Please remember that puppies are a lifetime (for them) commitment. We look for homes for all our puppies that are committed to training and socialization so they can be well balanced members of their families.

Your pets might not like them but they need them! Don’t forget to refill your pet’s prescriptions before the holidays! 🎄 We ask that all refills be called in by 5pm on Friday December 20th to ensure pickup before our holiday closure. 🐾

Castiel, Redford, Zane, Fox, Benji, Pippa, Pepper, Griswold, Dot, Murphy, and Peaches.

All adopted in the last 3 weeks. Bernie and Flintstone are still in trial adoptions but all news is good and we hope they will be finalized before Christmas.

I don't take any of these adoptions lightly. All of these dogs were far from perfect when they arrived and they took time to decompress and time with the fosters to work on potty issues and fear issues and medical issues.
I am so thankful for adopters who can see past the cute pictures we post and commit to the dog inside. The dog who will need special care or extra time or more training.

Thank you to everyone who had a hand in these amazing adoptions

Had the opportunity to meet Wyler yesterday at the adoption event.

He was originally adopted from Woodstock as a puppy 7 years ago and due to life changes of his family is desperately needing a new home.

Please share this boy far and wide.

For anyone looking for a medium size dog who is out of the puppy stage but still has energy he would be perfect. He is housebroken and crate trained and does good with other dogs. Loves people and loved the kids at the event yesterday. Cats are unknown

As the holidays approach we have been attempting to slow down just a bit so the fosters can rest.

We have attended petsmart adoption events the past 3 weekends and I am so excited to share that 12 dogs have been adopted since Thanksgiving. We have pictures to share but are waiting on a couple of trial adoptions to finalize before we share all the adoption pictures.

We did have a couple of last minute intakes. These 4 babies joined us this week but due to the holidays and vet schedules we won't have them vetted and available for adoption until after Christmas.

Today we have a momma and 3 babies joining us as well and hopefully they will be our last intakes of this year.

Thank you for all the support and shares!

Update: A meet and greet has been set. They will reach out to others if that doesn't work out.

We have lots of updates coming soon…. But we wanted to take a minute this morning to introduce one of our new intakes… Meet Jessi!

Jessi was surrendered to a nearby shelter. She is missing part of her front right leg (and a few toes) reportedly as a result of being hit by a train, but is able to get around just fine! She has been decompressing in her foster home this past week and is a very sweet girl. Jessi seems to love people and does well with the human kid in her foster home. She appears to be mostly housebroken and is learning to settle with the submissive dogs in the home.

Jessi will be available for adoption in a week or two, after fully vetted and allowed to settle more so we are able to find her the best forever home!

We have been working hard all week processing applications and meeting with applicants.

It's hard work as we want to make sure all our sweet dogs are going to homes where they will not only be loved but will also be given the space and time they need to blossom.

This perfect picture of Flintstone in his trial adoption home sums it up perfectly.

We took in a shihtzu mix momma and her three pups over a month ago. According to the owner who surrendered her the daddy was a Yorkie mix. Fosters did a DNA and sure enough these babies actually have shihtzu and Yorkie..... and many other breeds mixed in 😄

Momma and pups will be coming in next week for spay and neuter and then will be available for adoption.
If you are interested in being considered for one of these babies now is the time to go ahead and get your applications in. Momma will also be available for adoption.

Puppies adoption fee is 250 and adults is 200.

*UPDATE POST* - Dogs in this post have been previously adopted/are NOT available for adoption.

If you need something to put a smile on your face this morning, just take a minute to read these sweet updates and enjoy the pictures from these amazing Woodstock families!

Dottie (Formerly Button): Every time I see adoption updates, I remember that I never sent you pictures of Dottie (Formerly Button) so... almost 6 months later here she is, then and now. She's a typical puppy...into everything! We love her, though!

Hank: Hank has been a busy boy this past month! He went to a 2 week board and train and learned all kinds of new tricks. Believe it or not, he can now sit on command! He’s also had a meet and greet, and will be starting Doggy Daycare. Our special boy is thriving and we couldn’t be happier with his progress! He’s family. We’d do anything for him.

Zoey (formerly Nadia): Just wanted to give you an update on Zoey. She is the best girl in the whole world. She loves to cuddle with her mom and dad and is great with other dogs and kids. Many people comment that she's better than their dog, even. She's so well-behaved and empathetic to our feelings. We couldn't be more grateful to have her. Thank you for rescuing her so we could have her in our family. Here are some pics of her living her best life.

We also received the cutest pictures of Murray living his best life in his forever home!

Another precious baby looking for her forever home.
Black Cat Animal Rescue has quite a few dogs available for adoption currently. They have cats looking for homes too.

Check them out!

Pending

Millie is an adorable little chiweenie with a lot of love to give! During her dental and spay the vet guessed her to be between 2-4 years old, but she acts more like a senior dog and is very low energy.
Millie is good with other dogs and cats, and enjoys her current fosters grandkids when they visit.
Millie loves to snuggle under the covers with her person and would be ideal for someone looking for a laid back lap dog. She does have some separation anxiety when left alone, but does well in her crate ( other then some crying).
She would love nothing more then to find a warm home for the Holidays!

Please share! ♥️

$250 adoption fee includes spay, dental, HW test, vaccines, and microchip.
