A heartbreaking accident left Daisy with painful fractures to her tibia and fibula, requiring urgent veterinary care. She was brought to our Veterinary Medical Center, where our veterinary team performed surgery to carefully realign and stabilize the broken bones.

Thanks to the care she received, Daisy was back on her feet and bearing weight on her leg in no time! Before long, she was back where she belonged: home.

She was on the road to recovery, surrounded by the love of her family!

*Long term alert: R***r. Length of stay: nearly two months*

Meet R***r, a seasoned gentleman with a playful side and plenty of love to give! This smart cookie knows several commands, including sit, stay, shake, come, and lie down, and he's already housetrained. He loves getting out for long strolls with his person, but don't let his distinguished side fool you. R***r LOVES his toys and is always up for a game of fetch or tug!

R***r can be a little reserved at first, so slow introductions will help him feel comfortable as he gets to know new people. He'll need a feline-free home with kids ages 10 and up. He did meet another dog while in our care and did well during their interaction.

R***r is ready to trade shelter life for a home, a favorite person, and all the toys and playtime his heart desires. Could this handsome guy be the missing piece of your family?

Stop by to meet this handsome fella today or view his profile to learn more: https://idahohumanesociety.org/adopt/pets-details/?aid=59588721&cid=41&tid=Dog

At nearly 14.5 years old, Clem is ready to find a cozy retirement home. And one of our favorite things about this sweet senior? She knows how to roll over, and it is absolutely adorable!

Clem enjoys leisurely strolls, tasty treats, and cuddle time with her favorite people. She’s looking for a home where she can enjoy the simple pleasures in life and soak up all the love she deserves in her golden years.

Clem prefers having her space to herself, so she’ll need to be the only dog in the home. She also has a history of being fearful of children, so she’s looking for a family with kids ages 14 and up.

If you have a soft spot for senior dogs and room in your heart for a sweet gal who just wants to enjoy her retirement in comfort, Clem would love to meet you!

Sasha was transferred to our Shelter Medical Center in need of orthopedic surgery after suffering a fracture in her front leg.

Following surgery, Sasha headed to a loving foster home where she could rest, recover, and receive plenty of love. She returned to our clinic for several splint changes and follow-up appointments to monitor her healing. At her final checkup, the fractures had healed, and she was walking well. She was then medically cleared and soon after, adopted into her forever home!

Her new family recently shared this heartwarming update:

"Sasha is an angel from heaven. She has brought active life back into my other 2 dogs lives. She is extremely happy and active, warm and cuddly. She takes no funny business from other dogs and protects me. The medical team did a miraculous job on her injured leg. They are so fragile and long. You'd never know that she was hurt. She is very very special.

Thank you everyone for helping her. She has brought unmeasurable joy and love into our home."

We love seeing our animals thrive and live their best lives after getting a second chance at a healthy and happy future!
