Pups In Peril

14/12/2024

This beautiful soul is MIA who joined our Pups In Peril family yesterday because it was supposed to be her last day and we just could not let that happen. Her big wish was a home for Christmas and although we could not make that happen we could at least save her life. MIA is a gentle girl and we are of course trying to find her a home.

Rescues can only help special pups like Mia with your support! You can honor pledges and make donations directly to Pups in Peril via paypal.me/pupsinperil
Or

Or
Directly to Rutty Animal Clinic by calling 409-727-2626 on the Pups In Peril account

Meet Mia a lively and loving 5-year-old who is ready for her second chance! Surrendered by her family when they could no longer care for her, Mia hasn't let that dim her spirit. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and adores kids. Mia loves greeting new people with excitement and enthusiasm, always ready to make new friends. Though she’s a bit older, she’s still full of energy and joy. If you’re looking for an active, friendly companion to bring fun and love into your life, Mia is the perfect match!

Age: 5 Years
S*x: Female (spayed)
Weight: 55 Pounds

A Rescue Dog's Christmas Poem

'Tis the night before Christmas and all through the town,

every shelter is full - we are lost but not found,
Our numbers are hung on our kennels so bare,
we hope every minute that someone will care,
They'll come to adopt us and give us the call,
"Come here, Max and Sparkie - come fetch your new ball!!"

But now we sit here and think of the days...
we were treated so fondly - we had cute, baby ways,
Once we were little, then we grew and we grew -
now we're no longer young and we're no longer new.
So out the back door we were thrown like the trash,
they reacted so quickly - why were they so rash?

We "jump on the children", "don't come when they call",
we "bark when they leave us", "climb over the wall".
We should have been neutered, we should have been spayed,
now we suffer the consequence of the errors they made.
If only they'd trained us, if only we knew...
we'd have done what they asked us and worshiped them, too.

We were left in the backyard, or worse - let to roam -
now we're tired and lonely and out of a home.
They dropped us off here and they kissed us good-bye...
"Maybe someone else will give you a try."
So now here we are, all confused and alone...
in a shelter with others who long for a home

Sweet little 12lb Molly had her puppies on July 20. We have 7 beautiful, healthy babies. They had their first worming yesterday and given a clean bill of health. We still have to get them wormed 2 more times, get their first set of shots in 3 weeks and Molly has not been vaccinated yet and she will also need to be spayed once the pups are weaned. If anyone would like to sponsor or donate for Molly and puppies vet care, donations can be made directly to Rutty Animal Clinic or paypal.me/pupsinperil. We are going to be in need of Pedigree canned puppy food and Purina ONE healthy puppy dry and several washable puppy pads. We will put the link to these items in the comments. But in the meantime, prepare yourselves for an explosion of pure cuteness!!!

[NOTE: This photo is just picture of a pond in the summer. NOT a picture of a pond with the toxin.] Cyanobacteria can have many different looks, including not being visible at all. Link to Kentucky Division of Water for more photos and information: https://eec.ky.gov/Environmental-Protection/Water/Monitor/Pages/HABS.aspx #:~:text=Harmful%20Algal%20Blooms%20Division%20of%20Water&text=A%20harmful%20algal%20bloom%2C%20or,skin%20in%20animals%20or%20humans.
"Death follows minutes to hours after exposure to a small amount of this toxin." As the weather gets hotter, ponds can start to have "algae blooms." The water itself can look like pea soup, or like green paint is spread on the surface of the water. Sometimes it is not visible at all. Some of these blooms are cyanobacteria, which can produce potent toxins. Dogs are exposed when they wade in the water and either drink the water directly, or lick it off themselves when they come out. There is no antidote; treatment is supportive and many dogs don't survive. If you believe your dog has been exposed, bathe him immediately. If he has any symptoms, bring him right in to a veterinarian. See comments for more information about signs and treatment. (Most ponds that look like this are not dangerous, but it is not possible to tell which ones are toxic and which ones aren't except by having the water tested; If in doubt, keep pets out.) Edited to add links to more pond phots.

🆘🆘🆘 This sweet little lady is Molly who joined us yesterday.
Molly is very pregnant and in immediate need of a foster home that can help her through the next 8-10 weeks. We will provide anything needed for her and her puppies. She is currently at our Vet Clinic where X-rays confirmed 4-6 puppies in within the next 8 days (possibly sooner).
Molly suffered a Eye injury when she was attacked by a couple of bigger dogs at her former residence where is was not safe for her. We could also use some help with funds to cover the expenses of her veterinary care and supplies.
Donations can be made via paypal.me/pupsinperil
