Pawsavers alum Rosie. Wise words from her dad.

Dogs with so called “disabilities” are often the last to be adopted/rescued.

Rosie is proof, that passing them by… is silly.

Dogs with special qualities are just that…. special.

Courtney snapped this photo today.

Isn’t she perfect exactly as God made her ❤️

Happy Wednesday everyone! We have recently opened our intake, thanks to some new and not-so-new foster homes opening their doors, and we have some of these dogs getting ready to go to their new forever homes soon, if all works out♥️🤞
But that also means more medical bills and surgeries, so please help out these pups and donate a bit towards our medical bills if you can. We are indebted to all of you, we cannot save dogs without the help of our supporters, in whatever capacity🩷🩵🧡🧡💚💙

Our girl BETTY is ready to find her forever home! This adorable little Aussie is just perfect. Gets along great with dogs, cats and children. She has some hearing, but is vision impaired. She gets along great though, you would never know. Betty will need to have another young dog in the home to play with and to help her. There is really no downside with this girl, I think she’s pretty perfect ♥️ Betty is approximately 2 years old. If you would like to add this beautiful dog to your home, message Pawsavers for an application.

Welcome GEMINI to Pawsavers! This 8 week old girl is an Aussie/Bernadoodle. And she’s adorable ♥️ She seems to be vision impaired and hearing impaired, but can see a bit and hear some, too. Her foster mom reports that she is very smart learning house training and crate training very quickly. She will need another dog in her new home to be her buddy and help her. If you are interested in adopting Gemini, you can fill out a foster application here:

So what can you expect at the 2024 Special K9 Games? AGILITY! On Saturday, we will have agility workshops where you can teach your special-needs dogs to go over jumps, go through tunnels, climb the A-frame, and the dog walk, and even do weave poles ! We’ve been teaching these amazing dogs for years, and we always are cognizant of safety, and helping the dogs build their confidence. You’ll be amazed at the things your dogs can do. Then, on Sunday, we will have a friendly and fun competition. There will be categories for deaf dogs, blind dogs, blind/deaf dogs, and mobility impaired dogs. Below is pictured Lottie Moon, who is completely deaf and completely blind, and she loves agility!

Piglet is a tiny 6 1/2 pound daschund chihuahua mix. He's a lap dog but he also loves to exercise, learn new skills, and participate in dog agility. Yes! He loves to run through the long curved and straight tunnels, climb the high A-frames, jump over jumps set for his tiny size, walk on the dog walk, sit and wait on the table, and do the see saw. He is as enthusiastic about it as any ribbon winning border collie you see at the Crufts agility competition.
So why has he been denied access to participate in local classes here in CT? Unfortunately being deaf blind, disabled, is an issue for some in the dog training world. It's very unfortunate that he is not included. They claim they're worried about safety, as if I would let my tiny deaf and blind dog run on their equipment without my hand attached to his harness at all times. He is literally safety proofed by me! So we have tunnels, jumps, and A-frames here at home for him to use out in our yard.
And, drum roll, once a year he heads out to Columbus, Ohio for the Special K9 Games, an agility event designed FOR disabled dogs. There, he is welcome to use all the state of the art equipment, practice like the determined little man that he is, and then on the second day, participate in the competition. For Piglet, this is a highlight in his life. He LOVES this event. So do many other dogs like him!
This year's Games will be on Nov 2-3. We are already planning our trip. I actually hope to find a couple of schools we can visit in the Columbus area on Nov 1 and in PA on Oct 30 on our way there.
In the meantime, back to the meaning for this post, we are delighted to be a sponsor, and participate in this event. We'll be holding a Piggy meet and greet on Nov 2 in Columbus at 3-4:30. Details will be on our website events page later today. You can learn more and register for the meetup here.

COURTESY POST:
KHUFU is a 3 year old AKC registered beagle. He is about 30 pounds, and comes from hunting lines, so he has been a very active little boy. Unfortunately, he is developed IVDD, and he is now paralyzed and incontinent. His owners love him, but they realize that they are in over their heads with this kind of care, and are hoping to find an experienced home or rescue that is equipped to deal with his paralysis. If you’re interested in helping this beautiful boy, please reach out to Pawsavers, and I can put you in touch with his family. He’s located near Dayton, Ohio, but transport can be arranged. If there are any rescue groups out there that would be able to take on this little guy, please reach out.

This new girl, KIWI, is as sweet as she is beautiful. I ♥️ her! She is a bit growly with other dogs at first, but not angry at all, once she relaxes she is fine. Lovely with people, and kids. Cats are fine also. She is about two years old, and has lived her whole life on chain. Yes, we have another chain dog, our second one this year. As you can see from one of the photos, she is extremely thin. She was covered in fleas and has fly strikes on her ears. But she’s had a good grooming and is getting plenty to eat and flea control, as well as deworming and vaccines and all the medical that she needs. Once she puts on some weight, she will be spayed. We could use some help with finances for all of this, so, if you’d like to help donate towards K’iwis medical expenses, we would be grateful♥️

Bath day for our newest pups, BLUE and ROXY from Kentucky. Both did wonderful.
Blue is two years old and such a calm, wonderful dog. He does great with other dogs and loves to snuggle. Blue is a border collie heeler mix.
Roxy is an 8 month old GSD mix, she is a total sweetheart, great and submissive with other dogs, but full of energy and wants to play full speed!
If you are interested in fostering or adopting either of these wonderful pups, you can get an application here:

This is a beautiful photo montage of OTTO’s journey from Texas to Ohio. A group of AMAZING volunteers spent their weekend getting this pup to safety and his new foster home. Otto spent the first 5 years of his life on a chain, so these beautiful photos show his enthusiasm for life and adventure and love, despite a rough beginning. Dogs are so resilliant. Video in the comments of Otto before his journey to his new life began. Otto is going to the vet on Wednesday for his neuter and other medical needs, if you’d like you can help us with his medical expenses, you can donate here:

Welcome BLUE and ROXY to Pawsavers! Both pups just arrived here from a shelter in Kentucky, and both are so sweet and fun!

Foster needed! BLUE is arriving to Pawsavers today and needs a foster home or a foster to adopt home! If you’ve been thinking about fostering, take the plunge! Make a difference, be a foster home! Those of us in the rescue world are exhausted and can’t do much more. We need more people to step up and make a real difference. Now is the time. Please message me ASAP if you are in central Ohio and can foster this beautiful boy.

FOSTERS NEEDED!! Foster to adopt is also an option. From time to time, we do have dogs who are not special needs, but we do have a big heart for the herding breeds! These pups are border collie mixes, probably some cattle dog, and some kind of scruffy terrier as well. But they are cute as sheets!!! 😂. They are currently at the Ross county Humane Society, but we can bring them into Pawsavers if we have a place for them to go. We do need foster homes in the central Ohio area so we can get their vetting completed. If you would like to foster a puppy, or you would like to foster to adopt, please fill out the adoption form below and put “Foster.” Let’s get these puppies out of the shelter.

This is SISTER, she’s a blind and deaf Aussie, and she needs our help to find a home! I’m trying to get her here, and we need a foster home! If you would like to foster Sister, or another dog (we have a couple more I can save IF we have a foster), please fill out a foster application from the link below. (The app is the adoption app, just note that it is for a foster home). Fosters should be in the central Ohio area so that we can get pups to our vets. As an added bonus, if we can get a new foster home, we can win a $500 donation bonus from Piglet, the deaf blind pink puppy.!!!
