Go Willis!

Fritz,  Kathy and Willis

Fritz, Kathy and Willis

I have never witnessed Fritz play with any dog like he is regularly playing with Willis. It almost brought me to tears the first time we saw it happen, because I knew that my baby boy was going to be okay without Heidi. In fact, I think he is getting happier every day! He loves Willis, and I only see that growing stronger over time. I’m so thankful that Fritz and Willis are each enjoying each other.

Thank you so much to Kathy, Bryan and Fritz for giving the little misfit a chance!!

Hurray Moses!!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you… so much for choosing us to be Moses’ guardians! It’s going to be life changing experience owning a dog but its a very good life changing experience. I am practicing my alpha leader moves.

I thought I was a happy person before but now I just can’t wipe the smile from my face. Having a dog around is just such a comforting thing. When he greeted me with kisses this morning my heart just sunk. He is the sweetest thing. We already have some play dates set up! Can’t wait for those. Here is a picture of me and Moses.

Thanks for all the good advice. The gentle leader is working. He didn’t like it at first but on his second walk this morning he didn’t seem to mind so much. And he walked really good with the leader.

I am so very happy we ran into your group. You guys are doing amazing things with these dogs and it really makes a difference in people’s lives. I can’t tell you how much I love Moses. And everyone he has met loves him and his name. Kudos to your lady friend who named him. Best and thank you many times over!

Meet Dean.

3575707240_dd816e1581Dean’s Story
one good luck…one bad luck.

Dean and his sister were adopted as puppies. His sister got to live in the house…Dean was kept in the back yard. His sister got lots of treats, affection and a warm bed. Dean was kept in the back yard….always….no playtime…no visitors, no bed…..forgotten…
Eventually the idiots that adopted him, stopped feeding him. Not his sister. A relative to the idiots saw what was going on and brought Dean to the shelter. Dean sat in a cage until the people there put him on a list to be killed. Nope. We stepped in. We want to rewrite the rest of Dean’s story.
One of the sweetest pies in the entire bakery, this one year old adorable, larger Terrier mix is waiting for you and the rest of his story.

Well it has been twenty days since my last post pleading for a foster home for a very sweet dog found in downtown Los Angeles. Unfortunately he has not had any luck!

So again, I’m pleading that if you have a little extra room please consider helping this guy out!

As you can see from the photo, someone has spent some time at the vets! He’s been neutered shots given, cuts cleaned and….

dog_big

got some xrays taken.

Which revealed that at some point during his time on the streets this poor guy had one of his paws run over. All four toes are broken! So he is sporting a cast right now.

3574523161_5894b667e4

Between the giant cone on his head and the cast, you can hear him coming a mile away.

He is house-trained, great with other dogs and really a really well-behaved dog all around!

Beautiful young dog seen limping around the warehouse district of downtown Los Angeles for weeks. My neighbor almost ran him over one night and was able to steer him into an alley . Then she called us and we finally got him!

Something happened to him along the way and he has some pretty nasty wounds.

We cleaned him up and will be addressing his wounds. There is only one BIG problem! We have NO where to put him.

Don’t forget to tell all your friends..

Chicklet is ready for a home.

chick

He’s up…he’s at  em…he is ready to p-a-r-t-y!!!!!!!

He thanks everyone from the bottom of his little heart for giving him the opportunity to be a happy, loved dog. Completely free of pain, heartache, abuse and neglect.

He needs only one more thing…the loving home of his own.

It is the most important part of the whole rehabilitation.

Please contact us if you can make his dream come true!

On the mend..

3273955616_22fb0b023eFirstly, great and warm thanks to those that responded to Chicklet and his story. Your support, both emotionally and toward his costly vet care, have helped us focus on his healing of body and spirit.

Great news,

Chicklet has been able to come home from the hospital recently and will stay here in between his vet visits. He is on quite a few different medications and is required back to the vet hospital several more times, before the day he is ready to find his perfectly loving home. Right now, he is definitely on the mend….we take his care on a day by day approach. What are easy or simple things for all of our rescues are giant steps for this little guy…and celebrated as such.

Emotionally, Chicklet has made deep strides. He would not let anyone near him for weeks….with his pain level and all the hell he had been through, who could blame him? Luckily he loves Natural Balance sausage rolls…otherwise, we have no idea how we would have administered his medication.

Baby steps….and giant steps at the same time.

But one day I was sitting in the room with him and he just walked over to me and put his paws in my lap and he has been a tentitive but trusting little guy ever since.

We send more humble thanks for your kind words and donations. If you think you could provide the right home for this especially deserving little man, please let us know.
For now, we continue to focus on bringing him back to a better quality of life than he has ever known. We are still trying to raise the necessary money to cover his ongoing care.

The little Chicklet.

As rescues, most often when we encounter an abandoned/abused dog we are able to somewhat piece together what their life might have been from the physical evidence we see. Such is not the case with Chicklet.

3251761577_f6d86497d91

Beside the unimaginable of being burned by acid, it appears he was used as bait or attacked before being found by someone that dropped him off in a cardboard box at one of our vets. We were called immediately as he was being checked over by the doctors. Despite the sickening state we found him in, one doctor in particular felt despite the hell Chicklet had been put through, that he would be able to be brought back with proper nurturing, medication and patience….she was just worried that no person or personswould take
him on…little did she know that we are always up for this challenge.

3252586422_a4979102b91

Beside the above, he was starved, dehydrated, disoriented and working a case of mange. As he is healing, the bite marks and other mysterious wounds will all be treated and addressed. After about five days in our care, with accelerated amounts of nutrition and medication, his bleeding stopped, he got up, walked around and went back to the new safe spot that is his bed.

3251691271_42f71a15a3

It has been a while since we had this extreme of a ‘day at a time’ case….but every day is offering promise.
Every dog deserves humane treatment and yes puppies and cute dogs are easier from a rescue point of view, but there is something about Chicklet, his spirit that pulled us in. And on another level, we did not want him leaving this planet thinking that there is a dearth of compassion in humans.
Naturally, anything anyone might be able to contribute to his recovery is beyond appreciated.
Thank you.
We will keep you posted on his progress.
