MO/SPECIAL NEEDS 27 lb Mix girl seeking foster care or rehoming




EMAIL CONTACT:
kristinawak@yahoo.com

Hailey is a special dog, she has a medical issue and needs help! She is
loosing the only home that ever was willing to work on her tummy
trouble with her.

Owner is in crisis: Must part with special dog: "Hailey is still
continuing to battle the chronic diarrhea issues and is being treated
by a Vet in Columbia. This is her third vet in under 2 years. To date,
no one can tell me what is wrong with Hailey. She has been on numerous
antibiotics, dog foods and prescription Hills Science diet. She has
been on wet and dry in the i/d, z/d, and w/d. They would start with the
wet for weight gain and move to dry. None of the dog foods helped.



She is normally healthy and playful, we just can't seem to get her
tummy situation under control for her to have a solid stool. It breaks
my heart to find her a new home but I know that she is not thriving in
this environment and cannot live life in a crate.

NC: Blind puppy needs foster or home!!

Hi All!!






This is Reesie, a 4 week old chocolate lab/? puppy who is blind. His mother was abandoned
at a trailer park in Randolph County, North Carolilna. The people had left her tied outside
and the neighbors started to feed her. It was then they discovered her 11 puppies!
Unfortunately, mom was hit by a car and killed and the puppies were taken to a shelter and
into foster care. All the puppies except Reesie have homes waiting for them. His blindness
is congenital and his foster mom was going to have him euthanized. She is worried that he
would not have a happy life. But he is so healthy, gentle and loving and growing fast she
has put it off 3 times.



My step sister contacted me and I have been sending her information
about blind animals and the fact that they can have a very fullfilling life. We are taking
Reesie into Pets Come First and are looking for a foster home and/or adoptive home. Being
only 4 weeks, I would like to find him a foster home for several weeks till he is old enough
for his vaccinations.

If you can help, please contact Deb Warner at 814-345-6637.

Please feel free to crosspost and any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!!

Please Help My Baby, Sybil Before I Have To Put Her To Sleep




Click Here to pledge your donation for Sybil

Our dog Sybil has torn her ACL and needs to have surgery. Normally my family
and I wouldn't ask for help but due to a cut back in hours at my job we simply
just can't afford the much needed surgery. We think of Sybil as one of the
family and if we can't find the money for the surgery then my family and I will
be forced to put her to sleep.We would hate to lose a member of the family but
the surgery is over $2,000 and we don't have enough money to pay for it.
Especially since we just paid out almost $600 for x-rays and medication.

Sybil
is a mastiff mixed, and she doesn't understand that she is a dog. We found her
along the interstate one day while we were driving and she was just wandering
with no where to go. We took her in as a rescue dog planning to find her a home
and family but while we were searching we realized that she had a home all along
and that we were her family. Sybil has brought so many joys to our life, and is
a family hero. Sybil did sleep in the bed with my daughter until she was
injured. Now inorder to get up and down the three steps we have to go outside,
my daughter and I have to try and carry her up the steps. Her back legs at
least. We can provide documents for anyone who would like to see them. We love
her so much and we don't know what we would do without her. As you can see in
the picture my daughter and Sybil are very close, they are inseperable. I would
hate to see what she would go through if we had to put Sybil to sleep. Any
amount that you can donate will be greatly appreciated. We will provide updates
on Sybil if we are able to have the surgery. Please help us.

Help ANNABELLE get surgery to save a crooked & painful leg



Click Here to pledge your donation!




ANNABELLE, a 1 year old pit puppy, is in dire need of surgery to correct her
crooked and painful leg. Can you help her??

The Friends of Orange County
Homeless Pets rescued this adorable puppy. She's a sweetheart. However, her leg
was broken and no one paid attention to it or got her help. The leg was allowed
to re-grow very crooked and is painful for her. It is now 2 to 3 inches shorter
then her other leg which will cause back and shoulder problems.

The
surgery will cost $2000.00. FOCHP is putting this goal @ about half, or $800.00.


FOCHP is committed to helping ANNABELLE get her surgery. However, they've
been hit with over $5000.00 in medicals/surgeries for a slew of recent rescues
from this high-kill shelter [the shelter does not perform any surgeries but
spay/neuter]:


Felix [little terrier mix] had an operation for
intramedulary pinning - broken leg;
Elliott [terrier mix ] broken leg - bone
fracture;
TomTom [senior maltese mix] 18 teeth pulled;
Missy [pointer mix
] broken leg;
Snowy [pit puppy] had pneumonia

It goes on an on but
these are the largest & total about $5,000! The well is dry!

Can you
help ANNABELLE get her surgery? ANY AMOUNT will be so helpful and so much
appreciated!

ANNABELLE THANKS YOU - SHE DOES!!

Donations needed to help fix Emmie-the-cat's teeth!



CLICK HERE TO PLEDGE YOUR DONATION

My
adopted cat Emmie has a condition called stomatitis. Her immune system
is eating away at her teeth and it is extremely painful for her. She
has trouble eating and has lost weight as a result. Regrettably, the
only real treatment is to extract all of the teeth from her canines
back. We've already tried two or three courses of antibiotics, and none
of them had any effect. Recently I had to pay $850 to a collection
agency for something my roommate did to avoid going to court since my
name was also on the lease. That money would have been used for Emmie's
treatment. Her sister Sherbie had the same condition, and same
treatment, two years ago. Within a few days Sherbie was back to eating
her usual dry food with no problems and has actually gained weight.
Sherbie's procedure cost $550.



At this point in time I prepare Emmie's food separately by running
her dry food through a coffee grinder to pulverize it, then I add a
pouch of Meow Mix wet food, The Missing Link supplement powder,
KittyVite vitamin paste, CatMilk if I have any, and water. She would
prefer to just eat the Meow Mix pouches, but I need to stretch them
this way to make them last. Since my father died from lung cancer I
have been unemployed and getting treatment for depression. I've
returned to school to finish my degree, but I am on a very limited
income (about $7000/year) and am receiving Food Stamps. I had been
using my credit cards to make up the differences, but I can't afford to
make the payments anymore on $15,000 in credit card debt.



I am actually looking for part-time work while I'm in school but so
far have not had any success. I don't like being in this position, I
don't like feeling like a charity case, and it is embarrassing to admit
to anyone that I am in this situation. However, Emmie needs help pretty
urgently. I don't qualify for Care Credit since I don't have a job, and
I know the operation is going to be expensive. I don't want to give up
my cats, who are like my babies to me, because sometimes, with my
depression, they are all that keep me going day-to-day.



Please help if you can, even if it's just a couple of dollars. If
the minimum amount isn't met in 25 days, the collection is null and
void and you owe nothing. Right now I am collecting pledges, NOT money.
$35 is the fee to the Fundable website if the minimum is reached.

Buddy needs donations for surgical repair of broken leg




YOU CAN DONATE BY CLICKING HERE


This is Buddy rescued personally by me on Jan. 1, 2007. Buddy is a
chocolate lab under 1 year of age. Buddy darted across a road and was
hit on the back end by a car. The driver of the car got out checked her
car and got back in and drove away. She left Buddy in the middle of the
road while other cars zoomed by. We brought Buddy to my house and
called animal control. Upon their arrival I was informed that Buddy
would be put to sleep if they were to take him so I opted to adopt him.
(All resources were used to find Buddy's natural owners with no luck.)
I took Buddy to the vet for xrays to find the extent of the damage. His
back right leg as been broken in 2 seperate places. One of the breaks
is close to the body and completely separated the other at the growth
plate which caused the bones to shift a little. Buddy will need to have
surgery including placing a plate in the leg to hold the bones together
for healing. With this surgery and lots of love Buddy will recover and
grow to become a healthy and happy dog. Buddy is friendly to children,
adults and other animals even after the surgery.



THE SURGERY'S COST START AT $2000 so I am trying to raise a small
percentage to help with this unexpected expense. Any amount above and
beyond will greatly be helpful and appreciated. I have to have him back
to the vet within a week and a half to have the surgery performed
before the bone starts to heal the way that it is broken. He is being
seen by a vet in Goose Creek, South Carolina. All fund will be going
straight to this vet for the cost of restoring Buddy's health.



PLEASE HELP ME GIVE THIS BEAUTIFUL DOG A CHANCE TO A HEALTHY AND HAPPY LIFE.



THANK YOU

BEBE,ARK - MEDICAL donations needed for injured DOG

IMMEDIATE donations needed for injured and
terrified Beebe AC (ARK) dog - PLEASE SUPPORT HIM!




Toivo (Toy-voh), a masculine, Finnish name
that means hope, arrived at Beebe AC prior to Christmas. He was brought
in as a stray, riddled by the head/neck ailment shown below. At the time
he arrived, ACO labeled him feral, dog friendly and people aggressive based on
his own interaction with the dog. During my first visit to the shelter
on the 26th of December, I noted that this scrawny, male dog, happily settled
in with a friendly male Beagle he adores, tentatively came up to his
cage door to sniff at my hand as well as that of the local kennel
director. On Friday, I photographed all of the new urgents at Beebe AC,
and am currently in the process of developing a new rescue plea (should be
published late Sunday night, 30 December). A different ACO let Toivo out
of his pen and in to the shelter yard, where he promptly hid himself on a
table ledge. Over a 45 minute period of time, I remained near this dog,
observing his actions and allowing him to come near me (via the edge of the
table ledge) when he chose, and touched him gently on the side of his face
numerous times. By the end of the photo session, all dogs were put back
in to the heated metal building except for Toivo. It was clear that he would
have to be put back in his pen. I took a breath, reached out, put each
of my hands on the boy's sides and after a few minutes, began to pull him
toward me. He yielded to my arms and let me gingerly carry him back
to his pen as he lay paralyzed with fear.
My
assessment - NOT feral at all...rather extremely frightened and in pain.





Numerous observations lead to a general
assessment that this dog has been repeatedly beaten in the past. He is
malnourished and carrying the burden of an unknown injury or ailment at the
rear of his head/top of neck. We are asking you to help us get this dog to the
local vet for x-rays and a thorough examination in order to determine what we
are dealing with.


If you can help by donating, please do! If
you are unable to donate $$$ at this time, please support this emergency
treatment plea by passing it along to those you think might be able to assist.


Donations are needed immediately.

S.C. Lab Mix Puppy, spayed with minor emotional issues, needs home

EMAIL CONTACT twizz161@yahoo.com

We have an 8 month old lab/beagle (we think) mix puppy. We do NOT

want to give her away, but she has some issues that she needs another

home for, as we are expecting our first child in February, so we are

not going to have the time.



She is fully housebroken, knows some commands, loves children and

other doggie friends. I'm not sure about cats, as she's never been

around any. She's about 26 pounds right now, we expect her to hit the

40lb mark.. maybe. lol She is spayed, up to date on all her shots,

and heartworm preventative. She is very sweet and loves to play. No

problems with chewing. Give her a toy or bone and she's a happy girl!



I want to be upfront with her issues, cause I want someone to know

what she is up against. She needs a loving home, with someone who can

work on her issues with timidness. She's not scared of vacuums/loud

noises. She is scared of random things, like grocery bags, boxes,

paper. etc. When she gets scared she pees. She doesn't like new

experiences, she freaks out and wants to hide in her crate.



We are worried that she will be too timid around the baby. Babies are

a big adjustment, and we don't know how she will handle screaming,

etc. We are also moving into a new home, and she's already skiddish

when we have visited it.. and tries to run away or pee.



We are at a loss of how to train her. My husband and I have never had

any experience with a timid dog.. She needs someone who will have

time to train her and give her the attention she needs. If anyone is

interested. please let me know.

INGLESIDE,TX+ Dimitr, Deaf White Heeler Mix needs home



Dimitri was found wandering one of the local county roads in South Texas,
he has been my foster dog since the beginning of December 2007. He is
HW- and the vet puts him at just over a year old. He either had a pediatric
neuter or neither of his testicles have dropped. The vet said he can't be sure
either way unless he does surgery to check. He is current on all shots and
walks great on a leash. He has a docked tail and weighs about 40 pounds. He is
on Revolution for fleas,ticks and heart worm.


He is living with my 6 dogs and 7 cats. My dogs range from 1 year to 15
years, and from a doxi to a blue heeler in size. He loves to play and run and
will play for hours with my youngest dog, however sometimes he does play rough
and I have to redirect. He will chase cats but again I can redirect his
behavior. He has been swiped more than once by my cats and is beginning to
develop some respect for their space. He is very smart and learned how
to use the dog door in one day. He has shown no food aggression at all. I
feed all 7 at the same time with separate bowls and he has learning feeding
time rules. He has shown no body or mouth aggression either, I am able to
touch and feel all parts of him. He is hand shy and it has made it
difficult for teaching had signals. He does know stay and sit. I would recommend that he lives with one or two dogs so he can play with and learn the
rules from them. Not sure about small children as I have none but my friends
13 year old comes over and he has been fine with her. My 78 year old mother
was able to handle him also. He is like any other herding dog he needs to be
active and engaged. He is not fully housebroken yet. Any other
questions I have not answered please email me at scoleman@infionline.net or lcrpets1@yahoo.com


A fenced yard is a requirement as is a vet reference. I am willing
to help pay relocation costs.

Any help in rehoming Dimitri would be greatly appreciated.

Donations needed for Hound with broken pelvis

Contact is: sylvasylva59@embarqmail.com


I
couldn’t stand it anymore; I brought her home that is 4 more dogs over
the weekend then what we had. The pint sized beagle is going into
rescue, but I have to pay for rabies, the two old beagles need vetting,
I will do what I can, and the hound well I now need help. Can you
please post to contacts for any donation, my paypal account is
sylvasylva59@embarqmail.com,
being a private party, people will most likely not want to donate,
which is sad, I have donated hundreds of dollars just last month and
cannot donate one more cent to anyone anymore. I NOW NEED HELP. I’M
DYING HERE. My husband and I donate hundreds of dollars each month to
various groups and pay for pull fees around the country for people; we
now are in need of help with these four dogs. PLEASE. The Walker Hound
with the broken pelvis is skin and bones.


You
might ask me why I pulled them, well, two old beagles that no one was
taking and all the younger dogs and puppies are now gone into rescue.
Why should they die, they are energetic and certainly deserve love
after being treated like dirt their entire lives. The pint sized
beagle has been so traumatized she has not moved from her corner of her
crate for 3 days now. She finally ate and relieved herself but that is
while we were gone. The hound with the broken pelvis, well people
called and no on showed up for her. She was lying on thin piece of old
bedding when I took her today. A group was going to get her and I
waited and waited until the last minute, and they just never showed up,
all the staff was looking forward to getting this poor dog out of
there. This shelter has no money and is located next to a county dump.
And that is why I pulled her. So she would not have to spend one more
night in a cold kennel, lying on cement with broken bones. And low and
behold I was lucky enough to see some asshole dump a dog on the road
and speed off as I was driving home, the dog running its heart out
trying to catch his/her dumper. I could not locate him/her, I tried.
So I ask you, please consider donating so that I can help these dogs become whole again.
Thank you,

Sylva

Massive cat killing, please sing petition

The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) is barring Celia
Hammond Animal Trust,(CHAT) an animal rescue group, from accessing the
site to trap and safely remove the cats, even though the trappers have
all the relevant construction safety qualifications to allow them to
operate on the site and are only requesting permission to access the
road outside the site to set up feeding stations and traps. Preventing
these cats from being rescued is essentially a death sentence for these
animals.

This petition is desperately needing signatures...
