Today's boarding pack!

30/08/2024

With September approaching, there are many year-end things we have to prepare for such as spays and neuters as early as next week for sweet Aelia, who is in search of a home as wonderful as she is.
There will be vaccinations and hoof trimming soon and preparing our feral animals for colder weather and feed. Another transport to be planned to close out the year too!
Luna will soon be starting her Heartworm Treatment.
In addition our sweet feline prince, Prince David will have a follow-up vet visit soon to help regulate his blood sugar. As always, he is in great spirits though.
Prince, as well as our reigning long time rescue resident, Miss Bella, are also looking for their happily ever after. They have been through so much and they deserve so much more yet they only ask for a little love.💕
If you're unable to volunteer or Foster or adopt please consider a small donation to help us continue with their care until they can find their Forever.
💟Five For Furkids Friday reminder that your $5 donation through our PayPal or Venmo links will go immediately to the care of animals in boarding, food, medications and basic vet care.
We hope that every Friday will be a special day of support for those who are able to do so.
Thank you in advance!

If your dog has started developing interest in your trash, I recommend you get a trash can with a locking lid. This trash can stood up to Luther during his dumpster diving phase and after a few months he lost interest in the trash all together!

A great value for any kitchen, the semi-round plastic step can has features unprecedented for a plastic can: simplehuman's proprietary lid shox technology for a smooth, quiet close and a slide lock that keeps the lid shut from curious pets and kids. A steel pedal adds durability, and an integrate...

Bully sticks, elk antlers, and nyla-bones are all great options for an overly tired puppy to chew themselves to sleep!

I like to hold on to these items for a few minutes before I let the puppy chew them on their own. I also monitor any dog when they have high value chew items to prevent fights or choking.

It's not all fun and games when you get a new puppy!

Adding a few rules and boundaries to your daily routine will help your puppy grow into a respectful adult dog!

*Proud trainer moment, this picture was sent to me shortly after our first session! If you have any pictures of your dog respecting a boundary, please post in the comments!

Adopt Aelia 🥰
1 year old Doberman/Red Heeler mix!

Pros:
*Super sweet to her humans.
*Unique dog that turns heads due to her cuteness!
*Good with other dogs.
*Doesn't need much exercise despite the breed.
*Sleeps in until 7/8am.
*Potty trained up to 4 hours.

Cons:
*Separation anxiety, she will cry when left alone, she will damage a door or kennel if confined and can get through cheaper baby gates, she may go to the bathroom in the house after 4 hours.
*Nervous around new people for a few minutes.
*You need to be cautious around children.

Please consider donating to Helping Hand For Animals to support her journey!

Unfortunately Aelia was brought back to me this morning. Her separation anxiety was too much for the people to handle at the moment. They said she is the sweetest pup when they are home, but she is too destructive when left alone.

I have been working on her separation anxiety in the month that I've had her and she was improving, but will still require some dedication from the new owners to fix it completely. I have found that using a sturdy baby gate instead of a kennel or closing her in a room works best. Also having a window for her to look out helps as well, even though I am usually against this.

I am dedicated to finding Aelia the right home and getting her over this separation anxiety!

Please consider donating to Helping Hand For Animals to support Aelia's journey and the many other foster animals this rescue helps out with!

I took Aelia for a meet and greet, it turned into an overnight trial stay!

Update: I don't think Aelia will be coming back, unless it's for boarding! All we have to do now is fill out the adoption paperwork!

Please consider donating to Helping Hand For Animals for helping me find this pup an amazing home!

#1 rule for all guests that enter your house: You can only pet my dog if they are sitting or laying down.

If you follow this rule during your daily interactions with your dog, it will lead to less jumping for attention!

Gemma is happy to be home!
Of course the first thing I noticed in the picture was the Kong brush 😂. Apparently Gemma is a huge fan!

Fireworks + storms were not fun for Gemma.
This is why it is important to desensitize a puppy as soon as you bring them into your home. It's easy to start but takes some time and repetition until you have a confident adult dog that isn't fearful of loud noises.

Play storm noises and firework sounds at a low volume during your puppy's daily basic training sessions.

Take short walks on light rainy days, work your way up to walking when thunderstorms are 10-15miles out. (Do not walk your dog if there is lightning within 5 miles of you)

*Do not cuddle a scared dog! You will only be rewarding their fearful behavior!

Aelia has come a long way in the few weeks that I've had her! She is going to make a family so happy 🥰!

After getting to know her better I believe the best home for her would be a family with teenagers, an active couple with no children, or a single person that doesn't leave home for longer than 4 hours at a time.

A well behaved adult dog is also highly recommended! Being with another dog helps Aelia's separation anxiety and her nervousness when greeting new people. She loves to play with other dogs but I recommend you monitor the play between dogs at all times!

Gemma, one of my old foster pups, is here for boarding!

Lana's surgery went well with no complications. The vet was a little more aggressive with this surgery to make sure they didn't miss anything. They also checked her other organs just to make sure this stuff isn't spreading and so far it looks to be just the one spot. Hopefully this is the last surgery she will need!

Get an application in for Aelia before it is too late!
She is available through Helping Hand For Animals
