PSA********

Hi everyone. As you’ve probably heard there is some illness going around in Marshfield that may have taken the lives of 3 dogs at this point. 1 is confirmed, by me, for I spoke with the owner who graciously called me to go over what her experience was to help get the word out. She had all 3 of her dogs present with kennel cough symptoms. 1 dog out of the 3 needed to be rushed to VCA for breathing issues. The owner feels like the death was more due to the vets treatment decisions, rather than the illness, but regardless it still needs to be addressed and brought to light for the safety of other dogs.
The other 2 possible deaths have NOT been confirmed by me, but that by no means, means it’s not true. I just do not like to speak on things I have not personally confirmed. Anyway, this what is happening here at PP inc.

I have seen kennel cough type thing come through here, as I have announced, the last few months. only 1 dog has seemed to struggle getting rid of it completely but otherwise is fine and all the other dogs who presented, were kept home until they were better. It appeared to be straight up kennel cough. I have not seen anything like the above stated issues come through here, as of yet, but we always like to be extra cautious. My team and I have amped up our already super a**l cleaning routine, along with assessing all dogs carefully upon arrival. That being said, I cannot guarantee it won’t make its way through our doors. As always I WILL shut camp down if we think it’s made it’s way here and as ALWAYS.. not only mine, but other facilities would greatly appreciate anyone with a dog showing any type of illness to be kept home until we can figure out what this is and how it’s impacting our dog community. Be it dog parks, daycare, boarding facilities, etc etc… pls do NOT bring your dog if they are feeling or looking off AT ALL until we can figure this out. until then, there is no need for panic for that doesn’t really help anything.. just awareness and due diligence on everyone’s part who owns a dog that brings them around other dogs on any level.

Thanks everyone!

UPDATE- now heard from a second owner who used to be a client of mine. Her 4 year old dog passed due to this as well. Was boarding at another facility… came home and started showing signs of mild kennel cough. So mild she didn’t think it was vet worthy. after a few off days with barely any coughing they found him passed away in his crate. He was NOT a dog park dog and didn’t socialize much but did just come from boarding so pls take note!! all of the dogs have the same thing in common… kennel cough like symptoms. That’s the one thread that’s consistent.

Help if you can !

Please consider donating to our member Buddy and Friends Animal Rescue! They desperately need money to finish their temporary space which will help so many dogs in need. Any amount will help! Please see their post below and share!

We save those who cannot save themselves.
We save the 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻.
We save the 𝗮𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱.
We save the 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻.
We save the dogs with behavioral issues that others turn their back to. We try to be that last chance for dogs when they need it most.
We ALWAYS put in 110% effort.
This is not possible without public help. We are in the middle of finishing our temporary shelter space. We still need $6,500 to finish it off and to be able to open to the public.
Thus far we installed a new wall, installed security cameras to keep an eye on them at night, stocked the room with needs like paper towels, Clorox wipes, doggie p**p bags, cleaning supplies, and most of all….𝐃𝐎𝐆𝐒!
This space will be used to assist ACO’s that we partner with. Take in owner surrenders, so we can safely evaluate them before placing them into foster care. It will also be utilized for training. This is the same facility our boy Nick resides in until we find his match.
Please consider a donation. Even if it’s just $5.00, we appreciate every penny so we can push forward.
Dogs that are abandoned like the newest litter below in TN. We will advocate for them, always. This will be their safe haven.
Please remember - 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐀𝐗 𝐃𝐄𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄!!!

Well here we go again! Pls take note that in the last few days we have had 4 dogs either develop or report a case of kennel cough. Seems like this one is a fast mover so pls assess your dogs, be careful in public dog areas and just be informed that it’s going around! As always, I will close if it gets bad but in the meantime Camp will be enter at your own risk!

Another collaborative success story coming to you by and 🐾 I was honored, yet again, to help goldenhuggs train this little lass named Sassy to help find her a home. Came to me with no manners and emaciated from a possible vegan diet and a previous owner who was scheduling to euthanize her. goldenHuggs swooped in to save her and sent her to me for some rehab. Now 3 months later, many lbs heavier and a well behaved Sassy has been officially adopted and living her best life in Northern Massachusetts! Congrats to all! ♥️🐶♥️
