Meet Mia🥰

Sweet Mia came to us a few weeks ago and has been a darling little girl from day 1. She has been described as very happy, laid back and snuggly. She gets along with the other dogs in her fosterhome and has just been a joy. Mia is guessed to be around 8yrs old and is about 13-14lbs.

Unfortunately, upon her exam it was noticed she has some mammary tumors which need to be removed (currently the plan is for this to be done in two surgeries).

We are working to get that scheduled and wanted to share her adorable mug to see if anyone might want to chip in a bit to help with the cost which is expected to be more than $3000.

Mia is also looking for her forever home - please share her adorableness so we can get her on the way to her new life 🧡💛💚🤎

Thank you to everyone who donated so Claus could get his first echocardiogram. The results are in and are not as great as we hoped. The official diagnosis is:

Elongated appearing mitral leaflets possibly related to dysplasia, mitral valve systolic anterior motion with mild regurgitation, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction which has led to severe concentric hypertrophy.

Claus was put on atenolol and has a recheck next week with a follow up echocardiogram in 4mos.

If you met Claus, you would never think he had any medical issues - he is a sweet playful young dog who has a joyous energy. After his appt this week we will have a better idea what his ongoing needs are, but for now he's a happy little guy who would love a home of his own.

We know finding a family to adopt a dog with a medical condition might be difficult, but we are going to try our hardest so that Claus gets the home and life he deserves 💕💕🐾🐾

Please check out his adorable playful videos in the comments and help us find his forever home 🧡💛💚🤎

**Claus is neutered, fully vetted, housetrained, great with dogs**

Great words to always remember...

Sweet, happy, playful Claus came to us a few weeks ago. He was diagnosed with a 3-4 grade heart murmur and needs an echocardiogram to determine the cause and if meds are needed.

We were lucky to squeeze into our vet tomorrow after they had a cancellation. This test will be around $600 but is needed so we can provide info to potential new adopters regarding his ongoing care.

Right now, you would never know he has a heart issue...he is super happy and playful and loves roughhousing with his foster brothers and sisters.

This is a large but necessary expense.....any amount donated (even $5) will add up and make a difference 💕💕!

Claus will be available soon - so if you know someone who might want to add a bit of shih-tzu joy to their home, let us know! 🧡💛💚🤎

Stormie Needs A Fosterhome ❤️

We just rescued this sweet girl and are looking for a fosterhome for her. She is reportedly around 3 to 4 yrs old and about 15lbs. She has lived with other small dogs.

So far Stormie appears to be very people friendly and mellow...she'd love a home to keep her safe and loved until her adoptive home is found.

Please let us know if you might be able to help 🧡💛💚🤎!

Two Newbies Needing Some Love!

We have two new dogs who are looking for donations to help with their medical care 🐾🐾.

First is Claus, a super cute young Shih Tzu who will be arriving Monday. We don't have a ton of info on him yet, but know he has a 4/6 heart murmur. He will need to get some tests run to determine the cause and what meds will help him live the long, wonderful life he deserves.

Second is Whistler...he was found last week by the side of the road unable to walk. He was taken to a local shelter hoping his owners might have been missing him. Sadly, that was not the case and due to his medical issues, his time was running out and he needed rescue.

Thankfully the amazing volunteers who found him didn't want to see him die and we are helping them with his care. He is now able to stand and walk (yippee!) but it appears he might have some issues with his hip/leg. We are hoping to get him into the vet for exam, bloodwork and xrays.

Both of these boys seem super sweet and we think they deserve a second chance at amazing lives 🧡💛💚🤎

Over 10 yrs ago Watson needed rescue from a local shelter. He was adopted soon after and found a wonderful new mom to love him. She showed him so many fun things and took him on lots of adventures.

His mom recently shared with us that, 10+ yrs later, he is still experiencing new cool things....this time it was being an important part of her special day 🥂🍾💍🩷!

Congratulations Caroline...and thank you for continuing to give Watson such an awesome life!

Guess who passed his Canine Good Citizen test....Zorro!

Thanks to the dedication of volunteer, Karen Brown, Zorro has been going to training and weekly outings. All her hard work paid off and Zorro just passed his CGC test 🎉

Zorro came to us as a very sick pup over a year and a half ago. He is now a 100 lb strong, smart boy and we would love to find him a home (or fosterhome) before the end of the year...please share to help spread the word about this special pooch 🧡💛💚🤎!

Today is ❤️

There are so many wonderful organizations doing amazing things. The animal rescue world has had a bleak year, and it has been tough for organizations to continue on. Please consider donating to one...even $5 will add up and made a difference!

This year, we are lucky enough to have a match offer up to $1000! This will be a huge help for ongoing care of our dogs and to be prepared for any unexpected costs that pop up.

Thank you all for your continued support and hope your holidays are off to a wonderful start this year 🧡💛💚🤎

Foster or adoptive home needed ASAP!

Yet another year has gone by and sweet Shayna is still looking for a home. She is about 4yrs old now and such a great fun girl! She has gotten along with all the dogs she has met, however is best in a home without kitties.

She urgently needs a fosterhome as her current fostermom is moving...but of course we would love to finally find Shayna an adoptive family.

Please share so we can find this beautiful girl a place to stay for the holidays ❤💚!

Our rescue doesn't often have kitties looking for homes, but this sweetheart found his way to the right property and is now ready for a loving family to adopt him 🐱

Poncho is thought to be about a year old. He is neutered, chipped, vaccinated and is litterbox trained. From day one, he has been super affectionate, talkative and mellow. It's hard to walk when you are around him as he wants nothing more than to rub against your legs 💕💕🐾🐾.

From what we have observed, Poncho seems good with kitty friendly dogs and other cats. If you might be interested in adopting this amazingly sweet, beautiful, young boy, let us know! 🧡💛💚🤎

Coco Update!

Coco was rescued late September after spending a couple months in the shelter. Even though she was only 2 mos old at the time of intake, super sweet and so dang adorable, she sat at the shelter with no interest. Until she arrived to us, it wasn't noticed that she had a fairly bad hip injury.

Thanks to your donations and our amazing partners Lifeline 4 Paws, she had FHO surgery a couple weeks ago and is on the mend!

Coco was adopted and already in her new home prior to her surgery date and her adopters have been taking amazing care of her. We can't thank them enough for going above and beyond for a pup they just met 💕💕🐾🐾.

Our gratitude goes out to everyone involved with Coco's rescue and care - she is one lucky and absolutely deserving pooch who has a wonderful life ahead of her🧡💛💚🤎

Meet our little sweetie, Jewel! Jewel is about 7-8mos old and around 22#. We think she'll stay on the smaller side, under 30#. She can be shy at first, but warms up quickly....and she'd love to find a home with a playful social pooch to buddy up with. Please share so we can find this adorable pup her home 🧡💛💚🤎

A few weeks ago we posted about several little dogs who needed to be moved from a not so great situation. Thanks to the help of our amazing fosters, we were able to rescue 5 of the dogs in need 💕💕🐾🐾 Although their coats were matted, and a few were initially a bit nervous and snappy, they all acclimated really well. They are all now vetted and we are starting to look for their forever homes. We will do a post in the next day or two with pix of the cuties who are now available, but we thought we would share this adorable video of Kermit (likely the dad to most the pooches who were rescued). This is just a preview of the cuteness to come! PS - Kermit is about 3-4 yrs old we think, good with friendly dogs, cats and older kids. As you can see, he has the typical happy shih-tzu personality 😍 More to come in next couple days, but you are welcome to email us at [email protected] if you would like more info in the meantime 🧡💛💚🤎

Zoomies, presented by Sparky! Our little shih tzu, Sparky, came to us with a broken front leg. Due to the location of the break, amputation was the only surgical option. He showed us that despite the break, he was still using it so we held off on making any surgery decisions. As you can see, Sparky has no trouble getting around! He does favor it on occasion and there is a good chance he will have arthritis as he ages. We are trying to find him a special home that can manage his injury and what might come of it in the future....please share so we can find his family 🧡💛💚🤎 Sparky is around 1 to 2yrs, 15lbs and is a very social little dude! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/sparky-71335491/ca/roseville/sacramento-independent-animal-rescuers-ca358/
