It was about 11 p.m. at night when I got home with little Imperial. I did the best I could to keep him comfy (pain meds, electrolytes, capstar for the fleas, and organic molasses). All things considered, he didn't appear to be critical. I knew he had to be taken off the streets or he would die, and at least if he didn't make it until morning, he would be with me and loved and know that his life mattered.
The horrible truth finally could be seen. This poor baby had either been terribly abused or possible hit by a car. Multiple jaw fractures (4) were now showing us why he was so think and malnourished and couldn't eat. This appeared to be something he had been living with for more than just a few days prior to us saving him.
We rescued Little Annie from Carson Shelter. After getting her home she began having seizures. I am happy to report that once we got them under control, one of my very dear friends adopted her and she is truly living a blessed life now. Sadly, her sister Haven (white fluffy) recently passed. :-(
Rescued from Carson Shelter, this poor baby was adopted out and returned a few times. It wasn't until one of my good friends in New Jersey stepped up for him to give him the patience and care he needed...he was just very misunderstood. He's living a great life now on a farm in New Jersey.
Meeka was at the Carson Shelter and could not walk. After seeing our specialists and having her MRI, it was deemed she may only have a 10% of walking again. But one of our amazing fosters wanted to take a chance on her, and now she's really shown people that even pups with challenges can go on to live an amazing life. This is her on her official adoption day with her brother Charlie.
This little 4.3 lb cutie pie was rescued from Carson Shelter. She was listed as RO (rescue only) due to fear. We are assessing her personality but so far she is nothing but love, and so grateful to be safe now. She is listed as 5 years old with no medical issues. She is chipped and up to date on her vaccinations, and will be ready for adoption very soon.
Josie is just a bundle of love! She was RO at Carson Shelter, but since we rescued her she has shown nothing but gratitude and love. She couldn't stop smiling the entire time she was meeting with her Foster Mom. Now that's one lucky pup! Estimated to be 5 years old, up to date on all shots and is micro-chipped. Very healthy and sweet.
Long coat Chihuahua was an owner surrender. Sweet as can be she is about 10 years old with a grade 3 heart murmur and luxating patella in both hind legs. But that doesn't stop this gorgeous gal from getting around on her own. She's only got a couple teeth left so her tongue sticks out at you, but that just makes her more endearing.
