💙🐾💜Pansy and Silas update💜🐾💙

These two got spayed and neutered today!
Silas got senior blood work, and to check for UTI as his urine smells very strongly.
His results showed red and white cells in his urine indicating a UTI. He got antibiotics to go back to his foster home with.

Pansy, poor girl is so scared, she was acting up and barking at people, her whole body was shaking … we will need to work with her on outside the house comfort levels.

💜🐾💜Here’s a “pupdate” on Astrid!!💜🐾💜

Astrid’s adopter says she’s doing SO well! She’s almost done with puppy training! She is very eager to please. Her and her sister (Freyja) get along great and love snuggling/playing! She is also over 30lbs now!

She does have some allergies (bug bites/plants) and tummy problems just like big sis 😅 but they have the best vet who has walked them through it all🥰.

Precious went to the groomer today for a fresh summer look! We think she’s feeling pretty with her new coiffure and happy to be all spruced up.

Update on the newest intakes Silas and Pansy as well as Precious.

Silas the older the dog is estimated at about 10 years old. The vet suspects Silas’s swollen tail could be from fleas and biting at them causing extreme irritation and inflammation. He was given an injection for his skin to see if it improves, if not they will try another treatment option. For now we wait to see if it improves before further treatment. Silas also has an ear infection. He got his ear cleaned out and antibiotics for it.

Pansy about estimated to be two years old.
A Beagle mix.

Both are amazingly heartworm negative! They are so lucky. They will get spay/neuter appointments asap.

Precious has some issues with itchiness and got a shot to see if it improves.
She doesn’t seem to like big dogs or Silas.

We took in two Emergency intakes last night:

Our foster mom went to the dollar store in wren yesterday morning 5/22/25 and heard something unusual at the house next door. She went to check on the noise, there was a bigger dog on a chain and a smaller dog in a small plastic crate. She asked the people in the house about them, a man who is the owner of the property said they were there from “the homeless man”, he left the dogs there. It’s been hot, the dogs didn’t have any food or water. Our foster explained to the property owner it is not ok to leave the dogs like that, he told her to take them. She couldn’t take them at that moment.
Tonight our foster asked me what we could do around 8pm, if we could make room for them. I told her ok, take them but to make sure he signed the surrender form. She went back there at 8:30pm, the homeless man still had not come back, which meant all day long the dogs had been outside with little shade, no food or water and one trapped in a small crate… She asked the man that owns the property to sign the form and surrender them to the rescue.
They are covered in fleas, I’m sure ticks too. As one foster took the small dog tonight, her face was crawling with fleas, she barked nonstop from where they were picked up to the first fosters home and at the fosters home. She didn’t bark much when the second foster picked her up . At her home too she’s barking, she’s just so scared which is understandable, she was in a small yucky crate, hungry, thirsty, know idea what was happening. The big dog seems friendlier than her for the moment.
At the second fosters house they put her down in the plastic crate in the wire pen, checked her face then slowly put the leash around her neck, then put the collar on her, then connected the leash to the collar.they will leave the leash on her like that so they can work with her. This method works with most dogs until they are not scared anymore. The NexGard will help her skin and the fleas/ticks will die soon. We were able to give her DAPP, bordetella and lepto. She’s about 2 years old, maybe 12lbs.
After all this she got a bath and our foster went to bed at 12:13am. She will still have to go to work tomorrow.
What a night, emergency intakes can be a lot but at least we know they are safe now.
Rescue life, doesn’t care what time of day or night it is, as long as our fosters are not at work, we will go to those in need!
They will need to be Spayed/Neutered and if they’re Heartworm positive they will get treated for that.

Do we have room? Nope
Are we taking them? Yup
Do we have extra funds laying around? Nope
Will we figure it out? Somehow…

Can you help?

💜🐾🌸Zinnia is available for adoption🌸🐾💜

Poor Zinna was pulled by BBR from the shelter as she had zero interest because of her color : black. Black dog syndrome is a real death sentence. She was only 4 months old, sweet baby cried in her kennel. We pulled her because her time was coming up, and we couldn’t let her be euthanized.
Now Zinna is about 7 months old, her black fur has become more muted black/grey. She has very smooth fur. She’s a very sweet little girl, only about 35lbs. She’s always carrying some toy in her mouth. She plays with every dog she meets. She is so hard to take pictures of as she is always in motion wagging her tail. She is never too busy to say hi and very friendly to everyone that she meets.
Zinna is potty and crate trained!
Everyone who meets Zinna says how sweet she is and they love her. We can’t understand how her person has not shown up yet.
If you are interested in Zinna you can pm the page for an adoption application and come meet her at petsmart on the weekends.
