Update on Bishop his lordship, Earl of QBSDR:

It’s been an interesting experience getting to know this little homie and seeing the various sides of his personality and temperament come out. We’re coming up on two weeks together and so far, it’s easy to see how he became a challenge and took over the household. He’s adorable as hell and with his antics, it’s not surprising either. Given his story and cancer diagnosis, it’s also really easy to feel sorry for him, which would typically lead to spoiling behaviors, creating a spoiled dog. Most would want to just love on him, pet him all the time, and give him all sorts of freedom, cuddles on the couch, cuddles on the bed, etc, but I can tell you with certainty that those things would give you the same outcome that led to him being returned to the shelter. In order to help him and his cancer in the most impactful way, we need to prioritize his mental well-being through leadership and making sure rules and boundaries are in place.

Healthwise, aside from the thyroid cancer, Earl’s a pretty healthy dog. His bloodwork came back normal and orthopedically, he looks great. He doesn’t have any signs of arthritis in his spine - no narrowing of disc space or bone spurs, and no hip dysplasia. One of our biggest concerns was whether his tumor was pushing into his trachea or impacting his breathing - thankfully X-rays show all is clear, and we now have a much better idea of how big the tumor is. At the moment, it’s a large palmful at the lower part of his neck. Overall, Earl doesn’t seem to be impacted by his cancer in any negative way - he’s a pretty energetic guy for a senior dog. He’s heading in for his oncology consult next Friday with Dr. Ohashi at ASG, and after we get a better understanding of his prognosis and treatment options, his bucketlist can be planned out more thoughtfully. Please keep his lordship in your thoughts, and send nothing but good vibes to the Earl of QBSDR! 👑

Update on Brie:

Little missy is feeling much better! Whatever virus or bacterial infection she had was thankfully knocked out by the round of Clavacillin. We’re so relieved her X-rays showed no internal growths! Her followup blood work showed her white blood cells and neutrophils are back to normal, and her energy and overall demeanor are much better. She seems to be back to her usual self, and is even back to helping supervise Panda. 🙌

Brie’s at the age when things like splenic masses or other forms of cancer can start developing in dogs, and with canine cancer rates being at nearly 50% (1 in 2 dogs will get cancer), and the countless times we’ve experienced it with our dogs, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. We can’t see if a growth is forming internally unless we actually look, so if you’re not already, please make X-rays part of your dog’s routine care - especially if they’re over the age of 6yrs old.

Life is rough. If you’re feeling lost in the weeds like Gatsby, just know that he made it out, and you will too. ❤️🐾

Please welcome Bishop, our newest member of the QBSDR pack. He’s a 9-10yr old Pembroke Welsh Corgi that sadly, in the last year, found himself at the West LA shelter, twice. His first family surrendered him due to thyroid cancer, and his second family, due to biting. It’s not often we can get background history on a shelter corgi, but with Bishop, we had the opportunity to speak with his second family and got details about the bites (yes, he did break skin), his behaviors, and his medical history. He’s had thyroid cancer since before they adopted him and informed us that they opted to not pursue radiation therapy, and were told the tumor was inoperable. He’s heading in to see Dr. Stone on Monday for a baseline of diagnostics. Hopefully X-rays will give us a better idea of how big this tumor actually is before he goes in for an oncology consult. Behaviorally, he’s incredibly pushy, is controlling about space, is a door dasher, and can make some not so great choices with his mouth when he’s given too much physical affection.

Our sanctuary has been at capacity for some time now, so the information we got really helped determine whether we was a candidate to be safely pulled and placed in a foster home. After a home offered to foster, and a long discussion about Bishop’s behaviors, incidents, training needs, our foster process/expectations, and the hopes we all had for Bishop, we made the decision to rescue him and give him a bucketlist. This old man is safe thanks to teamwork, open minds, open hearts, and a commitment to his well-being. Everything moving forward gets to be intentional, loving, joyful, responsible action. These next days will be spent decompressing before the real work starts. A huge thank you to ’s humans for stepping up to foster Bishop, and for their incredible, life-saving work. ♥️🐾

Our littlest lady is back in for a recheck on bloodwork!

Over the last week, Brie’s been on a round of Clavacillin, and on the mend. Her last panel showed some sort of infection going on, but we weren’t sure what. She had an elevation in white blood cells and neutrophils, indicating her body was trying to fight something off. Her urine came back with no bacteria, so it’s definitely wasn’t a UTI. A f***l sample was also sent out, which came back negative for giardia and parasites. Hopefully the antibiotics did the trick, but if her numbers are still elevated, Dr. Stone is recommending an ultrasound as the next step. Nothing but good thoughts for Miss BrieBrie! ❤️

🙌 Walker’s chest X-rays came back clear! A little while back, Walker was having little coughing fits, which X-rays revealed to be aspiration pneumonia, likely from the times he threw up water after drinking too quickly. Thankfully his antibiotics and cough tablets worked like a charm and he’s back to his old self!

There’s always so much going on around here - daily care of the dogs, monitoring their behaviors, their health, and getting really present to all the ways in which we get to show up for them. As hard as it is and as much time, blood, sweat, and tears it takes to ensure these dogs are always safe and cared for - we’ll do it because they’re absolutely worth it. ❤️

We absolutely cannot do this work alone. If you’d like to contribute towards the care of our sanctuary dogs, please donate to our Medical Fund fundraiser. You can also donate
via our website, Venmo, or Paypal. The sanctuary kiddos send their BaRoOoos! (That’s thank you in corgi.)

Brie’s not so thrilled about being at the vet, but the love she has for their staff makes up for it. Our usually spunky girl has been a bit lethargic lately, and being that she’s 7yrs old (officially pre-senior 😭) and the rate of canine cancer nowadays (nearly 50%), we’re diligent in making sure there’s nothing going on internally with our dogs. Thankfully for Brie, X-rays showed no internal growths, which is always the biggest concern. We should have results to her blood panel next week. Nothing but good thoughts for this sweet girl!🤞

Dogs save lives. On 9/11, first responders along with more than 300 search and rescue, police, and therapy dogs worked night and day at ground zero to search for survivors. 23yrs later, let us remember and honor the victims, human and canine first responders, and the families who lost loved ones in this attack on our nation. We must always remember.

Update on Eljay:

I don’t know how this guy does it - it’s like nothing fazes him. Even after just getting home from a major dental procedure, all he wants to do is play. We’re so grateful to everyone that donated towards our medical fund and helped make today’s appointment possible. Eljay was able to get in with Dr. Stone this morning for a dental, along with his annual exam and X-rays to recheck and monitor his hip dysplasia. The cause of the swelling was in fact a root abscess on his top right premolar. Dr. Stone was able to get everything cleaned out and sutured up. Eljay had a total of five teeth extracted, but the most disturbing part was after pulling his premolar out, they found a foxtail wedged between the roots. 😣 We’re SO relieved that thing is out. Being out here in the country, we’re always checking for foxtails, but this just adds a whole new level of 😳 when it comes to foxtail checks. He’ll be on soft foods, pain meds, and antibiotics for the next two weeks as his mouth heals. The hardest part for Eljay is going to be keeping him muzzled so he doesn't try to pick up toys or chew on things. Anyone that’s been to the ranch and met Eljay knows this guy is all about the fetch life and he will literally bring you ANYTHING to throw for him. Please send him all the love, healing vibes, and ✨chill n recovery✨ vibes as those holes in his mouth close up. ♥️

Not what any dog parent wants to see on any given morning. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It looks like , Eljay, either ate a bee, got bit by something, or has a dental abscess. (Dear Universe, please don’t be a dental abscess. 🤞) He’s in for a dose of benadryl, and a long nap today. While most of us would love mid-day naps, not Eljay - he’d rather be playing fetch or running around our Little Dog Park, chasing the quail and rabbits away. If you’re able to spare a few bones from all those extra hours you’ve been working, please consider donating to our Medical Fund fundraiser so sanctuary kiddos like Eljay are able to get the care they need when 💩 hits the fan. 🫠
