Pretzel would like to show you her leg today. The swelling has gone down more and we’re seeing some good changes from two weeks ago (last 2 photos)! She still has healing to do and we are planning to keep up with her ozone treatments. We’ve currently raised $270 of the $2000 goal for her continued care! She’s made it this far, and with the best spirits! Now she needs help to make it the rest of the way in her healing journey!

Pretzel’s amputation site is healing well and she is already adjusted to life as a tripawd, and now she needs our help to save her front leg!

In the last week, the swelling has gone down, but her joint is still very swollen and infected. We are continuing with medication, ozone therapy, and splint changes with the hopes that the infection will resolve and the swelling goes down more. She has been such a good girl, and while she is still painful and protective of her legs, she is learning to trust that she has a whole team of people here to help her feel better ❤️‍🩹

She made it through her surgery, which you all helped to make happen quickly. She’s not done healing yet and still needs your support!We are setting a fundraising goal of $2000 for Pretzel’s continued care. Let’s give her the best chance possible to save her front leg🩵🥨

Pretzel’s first week after her surgery🥨

Her pain levels have dropped drastically over the last week and she is starting to apply more weight to her front leg. We hope to have an update on the progress of her front leg later this week with her next vet visit, but we’re so happy to see her start to feel better. You can see the light come back into her eyes with each day—when they’re open at least! ☺️ She is so happy and loved🩵

If you’d like to support Pretzel in her recovery journey, please send a donation in her name via our website. Pretzel says thank you and lots of love to you! 🥨

Pretzel’s amputation was a success. She has a long recovery ahead, but we’re so happy to see her start to experience some relief with her injured back leg gone. Unfortunately, the bone and joint in her front leg are infected and she is still experiencing a lot of pain. We are hitting the infection with a hard course of antibiotics as well as some extra pain management. The joint in her front leg is swollen and does not currently extend fully. We’re not sure if it will once the swelling goes down, but the hope is that we can help her get to the point where she will be able to walk on it pain free.

Pretzel is one of the strongest girls we’ve ever met. Please be patient if you’re not seeing a ton of new updates. She has been in so much pain for so long and her body is tired. Right now, we need to allow her time and space for some much needed rest. She will be seeing our vet team weekly, or more, for the next several weeks. We hope you will continue to send love and support her way🩵🥨

Pretzel is currently in surgery! You helped to make this happen. She’s in the best hands at and has been receiving so much love and care🩵

Her hind limb is being amputated and we asked to include radiographs of her front limb. This amputation today is giving her the chance she needed to live, but her care and recovery doesn’t stop here. The joint on her front leg is very swollen and needs attention as well.

Right now, our focus is supporting her through her amputation and we will putting a care plan together for her front leg and overall recovery. We hope she will continue to see the support you all have shared with her so far. We can’t wait to see her on the other side of this, and based on the short time we’ve had with her so far, we know for sure she will be smiling, waiting to share her love with everyone she meets. What a special girl. Thank you for helping to make this happen for her today!

She’s here. (Heads up, slides 4&5 are graphic)

We don’t quite have the words yet to describe her circumstances except that we are glad she is here to get the help she so desperately needs. We are doing one last push to raise the last $1000 for her surgery tomorrow. She needs it. She deserves it. I know in my heart we can make this happen because after everything she has been through, this world can’t give up on her. She needs to have the chance she deserves to heal and live a happy, healthy life from here on out. We have seen your donations coming in and are so grateful. Pretzel needs your help for this last little bit! Please share her—she needs all the support we can find for her. And thank you to single one of you for being a part of this incredible community. 🩵

🚨EMERGENCY INTAKE🚨

This sweet girl desperately needs our help to get her into surgery on Monday for an amputation.

8 months ago, she sustained an injury to both of her right legs. Over the last several months, she has been fighting off the discomfort and infection and started chewing her legs. Her back leg is broken and necrotic and it needs to be amputated ASAP. Her front leg is also severely injured and will need attention.

Her family desperately wanted to get her the help she needs, but they are not in a safe situation. This dog was not safe. Knowing their dog needed to get help or otherwise lose her life, they found the strength to reach out to one of our amazing adopters who stepped in to help get her to the vet for an evaluation and medication. Once we saw the severity of her injuries, we knew she was going to need an entire community to support her, so we said yes. We will help her.

She is safe now with our adopter. Our amazing vet was able to get her scheduled for surgery Monday morning. We have transport set for tomorrow. She needs this surgery to happen and we need your help to make sure it does. Please, if you have anything to donate towards this sweet girl, you will be helping to save her life.

We received this handwritten note in the mail with a thank you card and a donation and it touched our hearts so dearly we just had to share it.

Our rescue team is not large in number. We started Scoot to the Stars because we believe so deeply in seeing disabled dogs have the chance they deserve to live long, happy, healthy lives. We’ve seen time and time again the love and strength these animals bring into our world and we strive for the day that they will be seen and accepted as they are, by all.

We are a small group of individuals putting our everything into helping the dogs who need it. Change happens BECAUSE of that, not in spite of it. This thoughtful gesture of a handwritten note expressing just that means so much to us. Thank you for seeing us.

If you’re someone who is putting yourself into something good that you believe in, by yourself or as a small group, I hope this reaches you in the same way it did us. You’re changing the world in a big way.

Toby gets to spend the whole day with the best team at monitoring him after his heartworm injection. He loves all the attention from everybody! We are still in need of donations to cover his treatments today and tomorrow. Donations of any amount are so appreciated! We can’t wait to see what this next chapter looks like for our sweet senior beagle boy🩵

Mr. Toby has his last two heartworm injections tomorrow and Thursday. He’s been such a strong boy throughout all of his treatments. He went from sitting in a shelter, unable to use his back legs, ear infections, crusty skin from mange, to a happy, healthy, and fully mobile boy! Getting rid of those heartworms is the last step for him. We are in need of donations towards his care. If you’re able to help, please head to our website at scoottothestars.com 🩵 Toby says thank you!!

We wanted to take a moment today to share our deepest gratitude for our monthly donors. Your support has helped to provide care every month for our dogs from exams, to treatments, to acupuncture, and medications.

Your support allows for the capacity to take on big medical cases. We know we can reach out to our amazing community to help cover surgeries, procedures, and large medical bills without sacrificing care of any other dog, because your donations help to cover those and everything in between.

You have provided security for Cheeto, Frito, and Jubilee to continue acupuncture treatments. You’ve helped to cover exams for Roma, Titan, and Holly. You helped to get Chicken Nugget ready to go to her forever home. You’re helping Toby get the medications he needs to get through his heartworm treatment.

I haven’t personally met most of you, but we can feel your love and support every time we see your name come up—especially in times like now where donations are the slowest they’ve been, not just for us, but for rescues everywhere. We want you to know we hold gratitude for you very close to our hearts. Thank you for being part of our Scoot to the Stars family and helping some very deserving dogs receive the care they need and deserve 🩵
