💔 LilyPad thought she had found her family…

Last weekend, LilyPad had a wonderful potential adoption meet, and the family was excited enough to ask if they could pick her up this coming weekend. We were hopeful, because LilyPad is just the sweetest girl, and we could absolutely understand why someone would fall in love with her.

Unfortunately, we just learned that the family has changed their minds. And just like that, LilyPad has been sitting at the kennel, waiting for someone to choose her.

LilyPad is a German Shorthaired Pointer with the gentlest soul. She is incredibly sweet, loving, and gentle, and she deserves a family who will love her as much as she will love them.

We know the right family is out there. Could it be you?

If you have room in your heart and home for this special girl, please reach out to us about adopting LilyPad. Let's help her find a home.

oh no! Bruno just called and let me know we are almost out of wet food for the pups!

We go through a few cases every single day between puppies, skinny dogs, dogs that need some enticement to eat and dogs that received dentals and need soft food for a bit while they heal.

(At this time, we are stocked full on dry food so it is only wet we are looking for help with)

Can you help be sending a case or two for our pups? We have it listed on top of our Wishlist at Chewy right now.

thank you!

Adopt Bear and you’ll have a new best friend ❤️

When you ask the photographer for an updated picture or two of Bear… and somehow end up with over two dozen.

Picking a favorite was nearly impossible, but we think this one captures Bear perfectly.

A big Shepherd mix leaning into one of his volunteers, head pressed against their side, just soaking up the love. This is Bear.

He’s a happy, social boy who absolutely adores his volunteers and gives his whole heart to the people he loves.

Now that big heart is ready to belong to a family of his very own. ❤️

Bear is ready for his forever home.

✨️ Rescue dogs aren't automatically grateful you adopted them. ✨️

And honestly? They don't owe you gratitude.

We love to romanticize rescue. The dog who knows they've been saved. The dog who immediately showers their adopter with kisses. The dog who somehow understands that their entire life just changed for the better.

But here's the thing...

They're dogs. Not tiny humans who understand the concept of being rescued.

They don't know you paid an adoption fee. They don't know you saved them from a shelter. They don't know you gave them a second chance.

What they DO know is that everything familiar just changed. New smells. New people. New routines. New expectations.

Some dogs settle in immediately. Others need weeks, months, or even longer to feel safe.

And some might never become the cuddly, affectionate dog you imagined.

That doesn't make them ungrateful. That makes them dogs.

Adoption isn't about a dog spending the rest of its life thanking you for saving it.

It's about giving that dog the opportunity to simply be a dog. To feel safe, build trust, and be loved without expectations.

We have several dogs in the hospital receiving urgent care right now, and we wanted to share an update on the latest medical cases your support is helping us through.

Collin was not able to be discharged from the hospital due to complications. His surgical team is performing a revision to help him recover and ensure he can urinate properly following his amputation and plumbing reconstruction. This unexpected complication is additional $2,000.

Birger, our severely neglected little poodle, is also facing another major hurdle. After reviewing his condition, the veterinary team does not believe an FHO surgery would heal appropriately because of the trauma his body has endured. He will need a leg amputation this week, once he is strong enough for surgery.

And then there's our newest arrival, a sweet girl who still needs a name! Yesterday, a local hospital contacted us about a dog whose senior owners had brought her in during a medical crisis. She was diagnosed with Addison's disease, which her owners had not known she had. We immediately put down a $2,000 deposit to stabilize her and offered to help with her care so they could bring her home. Unfortunately, they are unable to manage her ongoing medical needs, so this good girl will be coming to Phoenix once she is released from the hospital. We'll share more about her soon, but in the meantime, we need your help finding a name!

In just the last week or so, we have spent **nearly $10,000 on specialty medical care alone.** These are expenses we never anticipated, but we simply cannot turn our backs on dogs who desperately need help.

We are so grateful to everyone who continues to stand beside us. Your donations make it possible for us to say *yes* when a dog needs us most.

If you are able, please consider making a donation toward these unexpected medical bills. Every dollar helps us keep going and gives these dogs the chance at a healthier, happier life they deserve.
