We rescued Coco, the cutest little chocolate lab, from the Humane Society in Yuma when we receive a call about her. We were on the road the next morning when Coco arrived I knew immediately something was wrong in the back end. We did a lot of investigating that ended up with a CT scan and found that she had a softball size mass in her vaginal area. We never really questioned whether to do the surgery or not because we already had her for a couple of weeks and knew that she had a lot more life to live. Coco had been a 100% outdoor dog living in Yuma Arizona through the 120° Summers and the cold winters, and she’s a small little lab. She is a typical Velcro dog that wants to be right next to you, touching you and getting constant attention all the time. That’s hard to do at a sanctuary full of dogs, so we found an amazing adopter that we were able to place her with as soon as her surgery was complete so that she could recover in a nice quiet home with her new family. Cathy, a long time friend and Volunteer at Dogtree, and her husband have been waiting for years and years for just the right dog that would fit in their home with their very finicky cat Mia. Turns out, Coco was that dog. Coco has completely recovered from her surgery is loving all the attention in her new home and even gets rowdy and plays, not with the cat yet though . That may take a little more time I believe the whole family is going on their first camping trip in their RV this week so I can’t wait to hear the details. Happy life Coco!!!

After a long medical hold, we are excited to announce that Moose is ready to move to his forever home. Moose is the most beautiful, five-year-old German Shepherd you’ve ever seen. We believe he was used for breeding for some time until his health deteriorated. He came to us with severe allergies, causing both ear infections as well as digestion issues. Moose is now on some meds for his allergies, his ears have cleared up, he has gained weight and just must stay away from poultry. So many dogs have chicken allergies. this is not unusual, especially German shepherds.
Moose is a typical five-year-old Shepherd. He wants to be right next to you watching your every move, is incredibly intelligent loves to run and play and absolutely loves playing ball.
If you’re interested in making Moose part of your family, please read more about him on our website at www.dogtreepines.com and reach out to us if you’re interested in meeting him. We will be sad to see him go but happy that he will have a home to call his own.

As part of the sponsorship for the BIG event, the ARTFUL EYE JEWELERS in downtown Prescott was our Top Dog sponsor and got the honors of naming our next rescue dog. Thank God because he came with the name, Ghost Face, believe it or not!

I talked to owner Cara and she has decided on STERLING as his new name. It could not be more perfect. He looks just like a “sterling” with that silver face.

STERLING was at the vet for bloodwork on Friday and he just neutered today. We are sending out for pathology since things looked a little bit abnormal.

We are making plans, once he moved up to the sanctuary, making a guest appearance at the Artful Eye! Will keep you all posted

Thank you again, Cara for all your support!!!

Tell me he isn’t the cutest face you’ve ever seen??? We already love Sterling!

Has anyone ever seen a dog do this??? Ernie just goes crazy when another dog is digging and dirt flying in the air. He barks with Joy and gets absolutely covered and thinks it’s the funnest thing ever. What a weirdo.

These two beauties are still looking for their forever home. Hero and Ralphie were rescued from the floods in central Texas. They made their way here to Dogtree Pines senior dog sanctuary, and to an amazing foster that had previously adopted one of the California fire dogs, Gurley, now Cali.

Ralphie is a husky and hero is a deaf pit mix. They are both as sweet as can be and have been moved several times so we know they are great with dogs. Ralphie is a typical husky and a bit more independent but hero is a total love bug. He wants to be close and always touching.
To read more about Ralphie and hero, please visit our website at www.dogtreepines.com and click on the available Dogs tab .

Thank you, Stephanie for taking these two into your home. We know you have your hands full, but we trust you immensely and thank you for helping Dogtreree, Ralphie, and Hero. You are a true dog lover at heart that is for sure. ❤️

The rock painting party yesterday at the Mountain Artists Guild was a huge success. We were sold out way ahead of the actual event and had a room full of fun, creative people. We showed the new video about Dogtree Pines and had Sophia perusing the room, looking for love and pets, even though she was feeling a bit under the weather. Artist and volunteer, Niki Simonson and Wendy Smith-Rogers did a fantastic job as they always do!!! We got so lucky when we found these two ladies. Thank you to everyone that participated and thank you as always to Wendy and Niki for running such a fun event. Everyone had a great time! And if you haven’t been down to check out the local art, pay them a visit. There are some beautiful pieces displayed.

Here is an update from one of our Senior for Seniors! Our friend John was looking for a companion dog. Shawn Foster‘s cats for a cat rescue so the dog we provided him would have to be cat friendly as well as a wonderful companion. Jon was pretty set on the idea that he wanted a German Shepherd. Well German Shepherd after German Shepherd came and went, and the right one just simply did not appear for him. All along, I knew that his dog was a dog that we had saved from Texas named Honey. Honey is a big beautiful hound lab mix with an amazing demeanor. I knew that they were a perfect match and Jon said he would give it a chance. It didn’t take more than a couple of days and he knew that I was right and that Honey was indeed his dog. We keep in contact via text regularly. He sent me pictures of Honey, mostly sleeping beautifully on the couch, but Tom sometimes out walking on the two or three walks that they take per day. John gets out more, gets more exercise and has even gone on a couple of play dates with Honey. It couldn’t have been a better match and we’re so happy for both of them.

I have been waiting patiently to make the announcement but wanted to let you all know that sweet Rosie from Yuma has been adopted. Rosie and Lexi were two of five dogs left in a home when the owner moved. Rosie now has a wonderful new owner that I know and loved dearly. She now lives with a couple of little dog siblings and gets along great. She has a big beautiful wraparound deck where she can lay and watch the wildlife pass by. She is actually with a mile of Dogtree Pines, which is pretty darn cool. Her new mom,Joanne, says that Rosie has found her spot on the couch, right where she belongs. Thank you Joanne for giving Rosie a forever home. We couldn’t be happier!!!

The BIG EVENT was a huge success this year. WE HAVE SOLD OUT THE LAST TWO YEARS AND THIS YEAR WAS NO DIFFERENT. WE UPGRADED OUR VENUE AND WERE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE 125 PEOPLE YET WE WERE SOLD OUT WELL BEFORE THE EVENT. Thank you to everyone who participated and supported Dogtree Pines.

We’re still waiting for the photographers full package of photos taken, but I did not want to wait any longer to share some of the pictures that we have so far.

Dion, Lucja & Gobi were a hit as we knew they would be. What an amazing story they told and what a cute looking little dog Gobi is!!!

Thank you to all our sponsors, including our TOP DOG, the Artful Eye Jewelers in downtown Prescott. They won the right to name our next rescue dog, which has just been pulled for Maricopa County a few days ago and is currently in Foster.

Please remember Dogtree Pines and this amazing event when you’re making your tax deductible contributions at the end of the year. You’ve seen the video, you’ve seen the dogs, you’ve seen that before and after photos. We do amazing work that we are incredibly proud of.

We will be sharing other photos as they are received, but here are a few just to whet your appetite ….

Thank you again for making this an unforgettable event!
