Cutie

Update: Darby came through her dental wonderfully and had 3 teeth removed. We still need a little help paying the bill for this at Placerville Surgery Center. Any donation is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I posted some of our dogs so I’ll be posting them the rest of this week and most of next week.

I wanted to start with Darby today because he’ll be going in to get a dental tomorrow at the Placerville surgery center. We would appreciate any kind of donation. Any amount is not too small.

Darby came to us from a shelter. We were told that he had visual issues and that was about. It turned out that he had a very severe ear infection. The visual issue was basically he has dry eye so he has to have drops. He did have some hair loss they thought might be alopecia. However, thanks to his fabulous Foster, who has him on a wonderful diet. He is doing fantastic and his hair is growing back.
Julie says that he is quite the character and he has everyone laughing. After his dental, he will be available for adoption so hurry up and fill out your applications because this little guy will just steal your heart.

If you can, please help with a donation to help get her teeth cleaned and whatever teeth need to be removed we would greatly appreciate your assistance and we really appreciate your support of our rescue efforts

UPDATE: she’s been rescued. She is now with Gunter’s Legacy and being fostered by one of our fabulous fosters Ellen.

We are trying to save this wonderful little dog. If you can Foster for us, please fill out our application at www.gunterslegacy.org/foster. She is currently located in the Sacramento area so we will need a Foster in that area. If you can’t foster and know someone in that area who might be able to please share this information with them thank you.

Say hello to Taco, the little dude who's stolen Angie and Renee's hearts. Thanks to these amazing foster parents, Taco's finally getting the care he needs. This 8-year-old cutie had never been to the vet until he got into a fight with another animal and lost an eye. Now, he's facing a slew of medical issues, including some major dental work, a neutering, and patellas that are totally on the fritz. He’s also missing an eye. But what really takes the cake? His owner swore he was perfectly healthy - um, sure! As it turns out, Taco had also never had a bath, which made for a fun first encounter with Angie. His new crew's dubbed him Jefe, aka the quiet boss, and they're loving his relaxed vibe. He's getting along great with the other dogs, and he's even working on his potty skills - though that's still a work in progress. He likes sleeping in his crate. The consensus? Taco's a total love machine.

We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to Odessa Gunn and Little Trooper Ranch for their compassion and kindness in taking in Luna and Kiko. Initially, we were asked to assist with four little Chihuahuas, including Luna and Kiko. However, their previous foster location posed significant logistical challenges in getting them to our vets. Fortunately, Little Trooper Ranch's location and connections with local veterinarians facilitated prompt medical attention. Luna and Kiko are petite, weighing about 6 and 4 pounds, respectively, and are estimated to be around eight years old. Regrettably, they had never received veterinary care or vaccinations and were not spayed/neutered. We are thankful for Odessa's initiative in reaching out to us for support. Her tireless efforts are a testament to her dedication. We highly recommend visiting Little Trooper Ranch's website to learn more about their outstanding work. Similar to our organization, they provide care and support for seniors and dogs with special needs. Additionally, we would like to thank Marina Abbott for her generosity in offering to foster.

Thanks to our wonderful fosters we were able to save all four of these dogs. Thank you to Gaylynn, Marina, and Angela for picking them up and making sure they got transported to their fosters. Gaylynn, Marina, and Angela volunteer to foster these babies. We will need a foster for one of them in a little less than a month if she’s not adopted already.

They came with the host of health issues, even though the owner swore up and down they had none but we all know how that goes and Rescue.

We could use donations. All four are going to need a dental, one has a memory tumor, and she needs that checked out and most likely removed and biopsy, 1 has patella’s in his back legs and in missing eye that he lost when he was attacked by another dog , and they all need to be spayed or neutered.

I know I’m asking, but it is Rescue and we always need donations. Donations have been really low this past year. I’m hoping that we’ll be able to bring in more donation. I’m always grateful for any donation. We get no matter the size and I’m grateful to all of our supporters. If you can send a donation even a small one we would really appreciate it..

I also want to thank Lisa Milanes for reaching out to us about these four little ones.

More wonderful updates.

“Teddy (formerly Liam) arrived to our home in January 2021. The guy really runs things around here 🤣. My daughter almost didn’t go to college this fall because she didn’t want to leave him. We had a pillow made for her using a photo of Teddy that’s exactly the same size he is 💕 love this dog.”

We are delighted to share updates about Gordon, a truly special dog who captured our hearts. As out-of-state adoptions are rare, Gordon's journey was a remarkable testament to the power of collaboration and compassion. Gordon was one of those exceptional dogs who required a unique family, and it took a collective effort to bring them together. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Dart program through Delta Airlines, whose tireless efforts facilitated Gordon's adoption. The dedication of their employees, who volunteer their time to connect rescues with new families, is truly inspiring. Our sincere thanks also go to the person who accompanied Gordon on his travel day, whose kindness was instrumental in reuniting him with his family. Gordon's story is a beacon of hope, reminding us that even the most extraordinary dogs can find their forever homes with the right support and care.
