UPDATE 4:28 PM CST 2-3

Exploratory done. No cancer or masses (yeah!). We tacked his stomach to prevent further torsion (twisting) and he has a serious infection, but the vet thinks thinks his biggest issue is depression and stress at what he's been through. He's hospitalized and resting comfortably now. The trick from here is to get him to eat and p*e normally. Thanks everyone.

There is nothing in this world that is fair. We took in Jed 2 weeks ago and he was the lone survivor out of a group of dogs that were shot by their owner for "killing baby goats". He is the kindest, sweetest dog in the world and all he wants is to be petted. We treated his wounds and they are healing, but there is something else very wrong.

Jed is in emergency exploratory surgery right now. This is a relatively young dog, and something is blocking his urine flow and something else is wrong with his stomach as it appears to be partially twisted on film, but it's not what would commonly be thought of as "bloat". He can't eat and his bloodwork is a wreck. I wish I knew what was wrong, but it's not going to be one simple thing. He's in the care of a very gifted surgeon right now so we are hoping for the best.

If you’d like to donate $5 to help Jed, you can do so here: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=LPNJEHNPR8AUU or via Venmo at (last four digits 9191). Thanks as always.

PS We have one more in critical condition. I'll explain this tomorrow, but it is the rarest of the rare auto immune disorders and a routine spay turned out to be anything but. Put good thoughts into the universe for us.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday, January 31, 2023

OWNER OF HAPPY PUPPYS ARRESTED FOR ANIMAL ABUSE & NEGLECT
Appanoose County – Tuesday, January 31, 2023 at approximately 4:50 p.m. Henry Sommers, the owner of Happy Puppys, located at 31264 141st Ave, Cincinnati, Iowa, was arrested at the Appanoose County Sheriff’s Office and charged with two counts of Animal Neglect with Serious Injury (Aggravated Misdemeanors); three counts of Animal Neglect with Injury (Serious Misdemeanors); and two counts of Animal Neglect without Injury (Simple Misdemeanors).
The arrest and charges stem from an investigation that began on January 11, 2023, after the Sheriff’s Office received a complaint of potential animal neglect at the Happy Puppys business.
During the investigation, officials observed two adult Yorkshire dogs and two Yorkshire puppies that were living in an unhealthy environment. All four dogs were relinquished to a local animal shelter and later taken to an area Humane Society. The dogs were further examined by a licensed Veterinarian who determined that the animals were being neglected, and as a result of the neglect, the animals sustained injuries in violation of Iowa Code 717B.
During the investigation, officials learned that Sommers had previously relinquished other Yorkshire dogs that had sustained injuries as a result of neglect that required surgical procedures.
Records obtained from the USDA and Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship – Animal Industry Bureau (IDALS), who are responsible for inspections of Commercial Breeders, showed multiple violations of Commercial Breeder License Regulations which contributed to some of the charges being filed against Sommers.
The dogs that were relinquished are currently being cared for by a Humane Society and Veterinarian.
The Sheriff’s Office is referring all reports to the USDA and IDALS for review of Sommers Commercial Breeder License.
Sommers was released from the Appanoose County Jail after posting a cash bond.
A person charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

BEHAVIOR SUMMARY:
Sprinkles has blossomed since his original assessment 3 days ago and is now a lively, people oriented cat who was on top of the kuranda bed and quickly came down and began head bunting the assessor's has, arching with back petting with a high tail and couldn't get enough petting. He was calm when picked up and set back down.

Sprinkles interacts with the assessor, appreciates & solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. This cat is suitable for any level of adopter experience.

Hi! My name is Butters and I am looking for a forever home. Me and two of my friends were surrendered by our owner's family after she had to move into an assisted living facility. Lucky for us, BCAA said they would help us. No one seems to know exactly what I am a mix of but the best guess is maybe yellow lab but I'm smaller than most. I'm around 5 years old so past all of that puppy foolishness, and I only weigh a little over 26lbs so I can fit most anywhere. I'm shy when I first meet new people and going into new situations but once I learn you're not going to hurt me, I love getting attention. I have done well with most of the other dogs I have met both big and small and haven't paid any attention to the cats I've encountered. I have done really well in my crate without any accidents or tearing up of bedding, and I love my food and getting treats which I take gently. I'm not real good on a leash as I probably never had one on before so a fenced yard is recommended for me so I can run around and take care of business. If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application which can be found at http://www.bcaaofnj.org.
