I want to take a moment to thank Dallas Animal Urgent Care for this beautiful portrait they sent us. They treated our Jewel like a princess and they helped us peacefully set her free. 💔

We rescued Jewel after finding out she was a trucker dog who was having active seizures and her owner was unable to take her to the vet. Her seizures were 30 minutes apart by the time we got her.

We were able to get her down to a seizure or two a month for a while, thanks to DAUC but the meds stopped working and she declined rapidly despite all of our efforts and she fell into a seizure she never came out of 💔

To whoever made this, thank you so much 🥺

The soft rainbow colors 🥺 the wings and the tiny halo.. it’s beautiful. We hope that she is at peace running happily over that bridge 🥹

We miss you, Jewel. Always. 💔🌈

🚗 We’re in urgent need of a donated vehicle 🚗

Our rescue vehicle has died, and with so many high-needs animals depending on us for vet visits, transport, and supply runs—we’re truly stuck right now. Our vehicle saved COUNTLESS lives and we are so sad to see her go.

If you or someone you know has a reliable vehicle (SUV, van, or truck) they’re willing to donate, it would be life-changing for us and the animals we care for. All donations are tax-deductible through our 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

📩 Please email [email protected] or message us directly if you can help.

Quick Jenny Update 🥹💜

We were told this would take weeks, maybe months to heal and the first three days were hell. She cried when she peed, couldn’t move without yelping and I could barely clean her.

This is six days later… the wound is doing amazing🥹
She’s walking by herself and letting me wash it. We’re doing daily hydrotherapy. She’s off half her pain meds and she’s even handling the steroids with no setbacks.

I can’t say I’m surprised because Jenny is the most resilient dog I have ever known. I’m so proud of her 🥹💜

Thank you all again for helping us through this 🙏🏽

Our sweet Elton was returned 💔

Unfortunately his adopted brother was NOT into it, despite super slow intro’s and separation. He’s back with his brother Murray who couldn’t be happier to see him 🥹

Elton is the SWEETEST cuddle bear ever. He just wants to be friends 💜 He loves all humans and animals alike and would love to find his people 😭

Please share our sweet boy!

Took everything in my power to hold this girl up one handed after days of being dead weight- my arms are NOODLES.

But our girl stood on her own for the most part for a while. She doesn’t want to actually walk just yet but we are making progress 🥹

Still lots of pain but much less crying and whining today.

We will know more about how the meds have affected her once she’s weaned off fully. But I see my girl is still there 💜 She’s the best girl ever and I’m so glad she’s comfortable right now 🙏🏽

I need to see her run soon 😞

Jenny Update 💜

Jenny is stable and mostly sleeping with sedation, which is probably best for her healing. We’ve ordered a playpen, a traction rug, a lift harness, and soft pillows to keep her as comfortable as possible. She’s still in pain, but we’re hopeful she’ll be walking easier in a few days. 💜

On a really great note- Medvet called. They apologized and took responsibility for what occurred while she was hospitalized and are refunding her bill there.

I take full responsibility for the initial accident and I’ll carry that always. But if I had been listened to, her outcome could have been very different. I’m grateful they acknowledged that and even offered continued support for Jenny.

I want to clarify that I was NEVER out for blood, revenge or wanted to slander them which is why I didn’t name them in the post I made out of raw frustration, anger and guilt.
I told them: pet parents know their animals best, especially when they’re disabled. That needs to be heard. They agreed, and the conversation was genuinely meaningful.

If you would like to help and send Jenny an item, our Linktree has everything. We could really use towels and blankets right now.

Thank you to everyone who stood by us through this heartbreaking ordeal. Your support has meant everything during one of the most emotionally exhausting times for both me and Jenny. I’m deeply grateful to have you in our corner.

Jenny says she loves you all and she’s hanging in there 💜

This is an awful turn of events in Jenny’s case 💔

While Jenny was hospitalized at the second ER, I was wracking my brains trying to figure out if she could have gotten into something or eaten something… I moved everything around and I found a small puddle of kennel cleaner soaked in her bedding. It had been knocked off the shelf and seeped under a door from another room. I immediately panicked/called the hospital. I asked them if this could be causing her issues and to please check her thoroughly. I also asked them to look at her back end because she had flinched and gotten agitated at the previous ER when I touched her there and maybe it was burning her.

I was completely dismissed.

They told me it coud NOT be the cause of such high fever. They were adamant about it being a neuro issue despite reassuring them that most of the symptoms they assumed were the reason for the encephalitis were things that she does normally.

When I picked her up they told me she was too agitated to examine thoroughly. But that’s LITERALLY why we turn to professionals in moments like this. Because they’re supposed to do what we can’t. They had a muzzle and cone on her and failed to find the burns that I found when I took her home. I rushed her to VEG in the middle of the night the moment I saw one on her Achilles tendon area and when they shaved her down my heart nearly stopped.

Jenny has SEVERE chemical burns that were festering under all of her hair.. I take responsibility and feel absolutely awful for the accidental exposure but it infuriates me that the people I trusted to help her did not listen. Because of that, she has suffered so much more by not believing my concerns. I trusted their judgement and didn’t push further until I saw them myself.

We are so grateful for everyone who has donated to help us figure this out and I am so thankful for you.

She is on two pain meds and two antibiotics and we learned how to properly clean and tend her wounds. Please pray for our girl to recover quickly from this.

So far she has let me do hydrotherapy and clean her wounds and she’s resting at home💜

Jenny Update 💜

It’s been a complete whirlwind. I’ve been monitoring Jenny around the clock — every moment feels critical. Last night we got her fever down to 102.8, but by morning, it was back up to 105 💔

We started her steroid today (we had to wait due to a medication conflict), and after just a few hours… her fever finally broke. She’s down to 101.7, the lowest it’s been in days. That alone feels like a small miracle.

Sadly, this may confirm what we feared — encephalitis, inflammation in the brain. For Jenny, that’s especially dangerous. She already has hydrocephalus (fluid on her brain) and cerebellar hypoplasia (a condition that affects her coordination). Any added pressure could make things worse quickly.

I was scared to give the steroid because she’s reacted badly in the past, but so far… she’s soft, doe-eyed, and clinging to me. She just wants to be close. I’m praying it stays that way.

We’re now scheduling a neurology consult to see if imaging is needed and if it’s even financially possible. We still need to raise $300 to finish her last ER bill, and more to come depending on what the neuro says.

We’re also low on clean towels and blankets — if you’d like to send Jenny something, it means the world 💜

Right now, all I can do is hold onto hope. Her fever is down, she’s calm, and she’s fighting. Please continue to pray, share, and support. She deserves more time — and we’re doing everything we can to give her that chance.

Rescue is a lot.

Just because there’s one devastating emergency doesn’t mean the rest of your special needs animals stop needing you.

During my 3am Jenny check, which consisted of her being stable, no significant improvement, no decline. Cuddles, changing pads and towels, cooling her off and loving her- I check on Miss Cleo who decided to get her food all over her face paws and tail 🤦🏻‍♀️

I witnessed this broken in 3 pelvic/leg area Queen SPRINT to me 😅 she got a very unwelcome bath- which is progress to me. When she first arrived, she laid in the water with no fight. She now wants me to unhand her, like Marley 🤣 We love spicy kitty bath 🛁

Cleo is a fighter just like Jenny. The ortho believes she could possibly have a form of brittle bone disease. We are waiting to see when there’s an opening for her to meet Cleo.

For now Cleo is happy, stable and precious as can be, and Jenny is hanging in there.

Rescue is a lot.

But they are worth it 💜
