REESE NEEDS AN MRI 🐾💖

We have raised $225/$4000 needed to get Reese her MRI. She is unable to walk without assistance and uses a wheelchair, so obtaining a diagnosis for us to move forward with via a neurologist is a key step in her care.

Please consider making a donation to Reese today. We have to pay for the MRI the day of the appointment, and we can schedule it as soon as we know we have the funds to cover it.

Donations can be sent via:
PayPal: furgiven
Venmo: furgiven
Cashapp: furgiven
Givebutter: www.givebutter.com/reesesrehab

Thank you for helping this sweet pup get the care she needs! Please share if you can and help us get the word out about her 🐾💖

FEELING BETTER 💖

Thorn says thank you for all of the prayers and healing thoughts over the past 24 hours. He is continuing to show steady improvement and is looking much more bright eyed and wagging-tailed today. He has been started on antibiotics to combat any secondary infection from forming post-aspiration, and we are hopeful that he will continue to recover well!

Reese, Rollo, and Bud are all doing fantastic and acting as though they didn’t have surgery yesterday. Activities will be kept chill as they all recover. Thank you for your ongoing kind thoughts for smooth recoveries!

AN EVENTFUL DAY ❤️‍🩹

We had a very busy and eventful surgery today, with four of pups being altered. Thorn could use all of the thoughts and prayers overnight.

🐾 Reese cruised through both surgery and post op, happy clam.

✨ Rollo had an uneventful surgery and despite being a little bit slow to wake up, came around great thereafter.

💖 Bud had an eventful surgery, but perked up well during post op and has been doing great since.

🌱 Thorn had an eventful surgery and has an extremely hard time thereafter. Unfortunately he vomited and aspirated considerably during surgery, a complication and risk of his megaesophagus, despite all precautions being taken.

He is receiving around the clock care from our team overnight. His condition has showed improvement, and we are hopeful he will continue to trend upwards.

We will continue to update you on his recovery. If you would like to assist, donations towards Thorn’s care can be sent to “furgiven” via PayPal/Venmo/Cashapp.

Thank you for sending him positive thoughts ❤️

BIG DAY!! ✨

Rollo was a stand-up gentleman this morning giving smiles and tail wags to everyone as he waited to be checked in. He is one of four Furgiven pups (along with Bud, Thorn and Reese) who are receiving their spay/neuter surgeries today.

If you would like to leave Rollo (or one of the other pups!) a comment, telling him he is extra cute/handsome/a good boy, we’ll read each of them out to him when he is back from surgery! 💖

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🎉

Everyone please stop for a moment to help us wish Furgiven Co-Founder and Director, Lee, the happiest birthday! Lee is the heart and soul of operations at Furgiven. From the care of the animals, to the rescue’s mission and continued advocacy and growth, his passion for rescue, giving a voice to the ‘underdogs’ and desire to give back to the community are felt daily here at the sanctuary. He’s the best!

If you know Lee, you likely also know he happens to be exceptionally musically talented. He also knows far too well, the ongoing need for funding as a nonprofit 501c3 charity. To help raise funds for the sanctuary for his birthday, he has taken a personal, unique approach and recorded an incredible mix of original music and covers to share with you all.

Any donation to his birthday fundraiser of $25+ gets you access to the entire music library. Every time an additional $100 is raised, another song is added to the library. Visit the link in our bio or www.givebutter.com/leesbirthday to donate and wish him a happy birthday! The fundraiser will remain open for donations through the end of June.
