Carlos on his Birthday!

02/08/2025

Carlos’s Hospital Visit.
He arrived at the appointed time, which was 7 am. He then sat on a hospital bed until 4pm during the wait various meds were given to him. They then started the procedures. He had to have yet another colonoscopy and another endoscopy and another sample from his intestines. The biopsy will take twenty working days excluding weekends. That means quite a long wait. He arrived home at around 8 pm. His birthday passed in a hospital bed. Not the end of the world as health concerns have to come first. I spent the day worrying and looking after the dogs. I also did a lot of paperwork. Thank you all so much for the well wishes for Carlos. You all mean a lot to us. Many of our followers go back many years. Thank you all for your support. It’s been a long journey. Over twenty years of rescue. If you would like to help us then please donate to [email protected] via PayPal.

Carlos is back in hospital tomorrow. It’s actually his birthday. He has to be at the hospital by 7am for the final checks to see if they are going to remove some of his intestine. Obviously his birthday won’t be good as he has to stay there all day while they do the final checks. I haven’t posted much as my stress level is through the roof. Today was all about preparation and then getting results. He is nervous and all we can do is hope for the best. His father died from colon cancer, which makes the entire experience even more worrying. I have to stay here and we have two staff members coming to stay overnight to facilitate him leaving so early. He is doing night rounds right now. He is walking Dylan the dog that lost his ear right now. There is still another hour of work to do. It’s been a harrowing year for both of us. River our last rescue that had 23 stiches is doing well. Stiches out and she wants to play. We don’t know if Carlos will get immediate surgery tomorrow or they will schedule another day as they know the type of tumors he has always end up in cancer.

Lovely River.

21/07/2025

River is one of the loveliest dogs I ever met. Her personality is incredible. Today was her first day to go out and play in the sun. She greeted everybody with a happy warm heart. She licks everyone’s face, gives everyone her paw and loves to snuggle. She lived her life with a huge tumor hanging from her. It weighed over 8lbs. She dragged this tumor probably for a few years as it grew and grew. It must have been exhausting. Today she ran and had her first experience of being free like a normal dog. The happiness in her face is visible. Please donate to [email protected] via PayPal to help all the animals on the streets here. Thank you all who do donate.

Goldie was all alone on the streets being chased by a gang of males as she was in season. We rescued her and she had spay and neuter surgery immediately. She quickly got adopted by a lovely couple. She now sleeps in their bed with them and enjoys hiking trails.

Stitches all out.
Good Evening from Brazil. Today we removed the 23 stitches from River’s surgery. Lenny’s leg stitches and spay surgery were also removed and we attempted to remove Georgie’s stitches only to find he took them out himself. We then went out to try and catch a small dog living in an abandoned house. His/her face is full of porcupine spines that have been in him three weeks now. He is petrified and ran away. We left food and will try some other way of getting him before he dies as he cannot eat or drink properly. We spent an hour or so waiting to see if he came back, but no luck. Please donate to help us keep going. We have other dogs waiting for spay and neuter surgeries too. Please donate if you can help. Please PayPal [email protected]

Saturday
Good Evening from Brazil. Today was routine all the dogs are okay. The day before yesterday Chopin the Saint Bernard fell over. He is old, but he gets very excited. Several members of staff and Carlos managed to get him up. He is now better, but not allowed to run far. Tomorrow River’s 23 stitches come out. Here is Chopin with Louie, who is his kennel mate. Louie is young and Chopin is old and he wants to keep up with Louie. Tomorrow we will be taking out stitches from various dogs. We will also be doing various baths. We are in need of donations. Please help if you can. We have had very high expenses with surgeries. We are desperately worried that we will not make it to the end of the month. Please remember us. Please leave reviews as I noticed today the since 2020 nobody has written a review. There are many new people who help could by writing a review. Sharing is helpful too. We have been rescuing many years; we have been through hard times and still struggle at times to keep up. We stick to our mission and won’t turn our backs on the serious cases. We need more kennels, but don’t have the finances or space for more. Please PayPal [email protected] if you can help. Here is Carlos with Chopin and Louie. Louie was run over and lost his tail. Chopin was unwanted and neglected. Thank you to all who help us.
