3 months pup, broken leg in med room at South LA Shelter Needs a home

Please forward and cross post

please email yep6cats@aol.com if you can help.


Impound 896658, 3 months female pup
 



Poor little girl is shy,  sad and scared.  Who can blame her??

She was scared to look at me and turned her face towards the back of her cage and then timidly looked over her shoulder at me.  She warmed up and became sweet when I pet her.

She is a stray available on August 31.  Most certainly a dead pup without a rescue lined up for her.

DONATION NEEDED! Ca- GSD Pup named Fresno shot and left in ditch beaten in immediate danger

Please forward and cross post...a life is hanging in the balance
 

 
      
 
Fresno is a German Sheperd Dog.  He is a puppy. He was found in a ditch in CA.
 
If you can even imagine the suffering of a pup laying in a ditch for three days with a broken body, you will want to help Fresno.  Not only did he have broken bones, he had also been shot.
 
Two rescues are in collaboration to get Fresno the help he needs.  Oregon German Sheperd Rescue and Indigo Rescue.
 
Fresno has been flown to Oregon and is now in the hospital awaiting surgery.
 
Surgery has to happen today.  The estimate for surgery is $3612.  IMOM has pledged $500 from emergency funds.  Please help us to quickly raise $3112.

VA-special needs senior cat needs new home-he has only 3 legs, name is "Curtis Brown"

CONTACT: Sandra Charles sandramcharles@yahoo.com
703-477-5662

I'm hoping to find a great home for my cat. His name is Curtis Brown, he's around 8-9 years old and has 3 legs. I've had him for 7 years, and I love him a lot, but I'm moving and I can't afford to take him with me. He's very sweet, loves to cuddle, and enjoys to be petted and brushed. His favorite is being scratched behind his ear, because he can't reach that side since he's missing his back leg. He cannot live with a dog, but should be fine with another cat.

Please email me at sandramcharles@yahoo.com or call me at 703-477-5662 if you would like to meet him.

Family moving FRIDAY! BLIND 9 YR old SPAYED poodle/tzu needs home; photos attached,

PLEASE CROSS POST - This little BLIND girl _MUST _be gone by Saturday
morning!!! They are moving to Florida and can't take her!


Blind dogs see with their heart....



Maggie did have a rescue but it fell through and now she has no where to go
and only a few days to find a rescue or a new home. She MUST be out by
August 31st!! Maggie has become accustomed to her blindness and gets
around well. Blindness is not the tragedy for dogs that it is for humans.
She will just need some orientation to her new home, some assistance
getting in and out to potty until she learns the route and some
understanding since she has to live in a new place and it will be strange
to her. The Blind Dogs Group at Yahoo is _very _supportive and can help
with questions and problems. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/blinddogs

I need to place my Maggie by Friday August 31st. We thought had found a
home, but it fell through.
Maggie is a loving dog and she gets around even though she is blind. She
was diagnosed a few years ago, and there was nothing to do for her
blindness. She is blind from PRA Progressive Retinal Atrophy, a painless
gradual blindness that is untreatable. There will be _*no *_expensive eye
vet charges -- she isn't in pain and needs no special care.
http://www.animaleyecare.net/diseases/pra.htm

 



Birthdate 1/26/98 9 years old
She is up to date on her shots and spayed
She is housebroken
She is blind
She weights about 13 lbs.
She is a black and white mixed Poodle/Chihuahua (Shih tzu more likely)
She gets along with other dogs and cats

I have attached a recent photo of Maggie.

I hope you can help me with her placement.

Sincerely

Bill Athan

I cannot see you Mommy, when you cuddle me so near.
And yet I know you love me, it's in the words I hear.
I cannot see you Daddy, when you hold me by your side
But still I know you love me when you tell me so with pride.
I cannot see to run and play out in the sun so bright
For here inside my tiny head it's always dark as night.
I cannot see the treats you give when I am extra good
But I can wag my tail in Thanks just like a good dog should.
"She cannot see. The dogs no good" is what some folks might say
"She can't be trained, she'll never learn She must be put away."
But not you, Mom and Daddy You know that it's alright
Because I love you just as much as any dog with sight.
You took me in, you gave me love and we will never part
Because I'm blind with just my eyes, I see you in my heart.*

Fremont, OH - Partially paralyzed Pom LOOKING FOR FOREVER HOME!

Partially paralyzed Pom
LOOKING FOR FOREVER HOME!
 
My name is Mandie and I am a young Pomeranian. 
The breeder told my prior owners that when I was a young puppy the first human who adopted me sat on my hind legs and left them partially paralyzed.
 
My second owners took me to the Humane Society of Sandusky County because they are moving to a new home where they can no longer keep me.
 
I would probably do really well with a cart.
 
They wrote a note about me for my new family, if I am lucky enough to find one, about my medical history and my likes and dislikes. I love fabric squeak toys and sleeping in beds. I can walk pretty good and move quicker than you might think I can, but my legs tend to drag behind me. I am housetrained and will do circles at your door to let you know when it is time. I would make a great companion for someone who is willing to work with my special needs and love me. 
 
I can't catch a Frisbee but I can give kisses!
 
S.P.A. has offered to help find me the kind of home that I deserve. This time, a FOREVER home where someone won't give me up because they are moving.
 
Please fill out an S.P.A. application at:
if you think you'd like to make me a
permanent a member of your family.
 
You'll be adopting me from the Humane Society,
but S.P.A. wants to make sure
that it is a PERFECT FAMILY who adopts me!

CONTACT: Emily Pike at 802-793-5044

I was contacted today by a lady that is moving to an apartment that does not allow cats. She had 3 cats, and has found two of them homes already, but is having trouble placing this last cat because he requires a once a day dose of Lactulose for the rest of his life due to bowel issues, to keep him from impacting (becoming constipated). He's UTD on all vet work, very healthy, sweet, GREAT with kids. His ONLY special requirement is a daily dose of this very inexpensive medication, which he takes easily (it's a liquid). He's a 7 years old neutered male, and is a brown/grey tabby with a white spot on his neck, owner says he's very big. MUST BE PLACED BY THIS WEEKEND 09/02/07! Please help! Owner can transport up to an hour from northern/central Vermont, further transport can possibly be arranged. Cat may be euthanised if not placed by this weekend, as owner must be out of old location by Sunday, September 2nd. Owner very distraught, loves this cat, sincerely wants to find him a home! Picture available soon. Please contact Emily Pike at 802-793-5044.

In search of DEAF DOG, Nice adopter wants deaf pitbull!!

Hi,
My name is Kim Thompson and I am the shelter manager at the Butte Humane
Society. We had a nice deaf pitbull that was adopted, but a VERY nice girl
came in after he was already placed because she was told he was still
here. She is an excellent adopter, and because she drove three hours, and
she would be a wonderful home for a dog, I told her I would try and find a
dog for her.
She really wants a deaf pitbull that's 50lbs or smaller. She loves white
dogs, and really just wants to help out a deaf dog. She is knowledgeable
and really eager to take care of a dog. She will consider ANY deaf dogs,
age is not important. If you think you know of a deaf dog let me know.
Search your shelters! Lets save someone today. If you have another type of
special needs, please email those as well. Please spread this email
around, and lets help save a deaf or special needs dog. I can help with
transport and she can adopt him through our shelter or refer her to an
organization.

Hi All-  I am passing this on for a friend who is trying very hard to 
help this little one. Please cross post and help send out to anyone 
you can think of who might want to help Peanut who really deserves a 
chance! Please do not email me back if you can help because I am away 
for the next week- and that is all that Peanut has left. Please email 
Heather below. Thanks!!



Dear Fellow Rescue Workers -

My name is Heather and I am the Rescue Coordinator for Camden 
County Animal Shelter.  I am desperately seeking help for a little 
girl named Peanut!


Peanut was found by an Animal Control Officer in Camden, back legs
paralyzed,
scratching to get into the door of the crack house where she
was living.  Animal Control took her to the emergency vet where she has
been ever since.  Unfortunately, they have done all they can for Peanut.
Her paralysis is unable to be corrected and she does not have use of her
bowels - She must be expelled, like a puppy.


They are guessing Peanut is about five years old, but she could be
younger and have had such a bad diet that her teeth make her appear
five.  She is a very happy little girl and the wonderful folks at the
hospital made her a cart and she gets around great!
  She is very much
full of life!


We are unable to take Peanut to our Shelter.  We simply don't have the
resources to give her the care and attention that she needs.  The
hospital can no longer keep her and we have until Labor Day to find a
place for her.  They won't be able to give us an extension on that
time frame.

We don't have very much time to try and save this girl!  When the
hospital contacted me, my heart broke, and I am trying everything
possible to save her from euthanasia.  Please, if you cannot help Peanut
yourself, cross-post this story and her pretty pictures!
  All medical
records will be made available and my contact at the hospital will be
happy to answer any questions.
  I can be reached at
CamCoShelter@yahoo.com (@yahoo.com)  and I check E-mail extremely frequently.

Thank you for caring about Peanut and all you do for the dogs!

cat attacked by coyote in Encinitas CA needs donations for surgery

PLEASE CROSSPOST

Hi, I have a friend who's neighbors cat was attacked by a coyote on August
15th. She went with the cats so called owner to the vet only to find out
she didn't want to pay for an x-ray or treatment because the cat was already
10 years old. Only because Christine was there is why Bob is still
alive.her neighbor was going to euthanize him but instead out of guilt and
at Christine's urging he was given antibiotics for the puncture wounds and
pain meds for his fractured jaw and then sent home to see if his jaw would
"fix itselt". Yesterday my friend was able to get her neighbor to
relinquish Bob with a formal letter so she could take him to a vet for an
x-ray. Unfortunately Christine already cares for several cats of her own
and can't afford the surgery to wire his jaw. It was determined at the vet
yesterday that he needs a very simple surgery . The vet (Dr. Chow VCA North
Coast Animal Hospital) said she could both feel and see the fracture, it is
called a "mandibullar symphyseal fracture". She did not need to take an
x-ray because luckily she said it was a simple fracture, one you can see
visually. He was 3% dehydrated and has lost several pounds over the last
week since this happened and when she had previously examined him. Since he
has lost so much weight she determined he needed surgery as soon as possible
to wire his jaw so he is scheduled to have surgery today. Christine is
getting an account set up at the vet so funds can go directly to his care
and his surgery is scheduled for around noon. I will have all the details
on Bob's account very soon. Additionally, Stray Cat Alliance has very
generously pledged $200 towards his care so we are only trying to fund raise
for the additional $288 - if anyone can help with even $5 that will help so
much. Stray Cat Alliance has also offered to give anyone who would like a
tax deductable receipt one as well as we can provide pictures,
relinquishment letter, vet bills/estimate etc. Please help Bob get a second
chance! After his recovery we will be searching for his new forever home,
one where he will be loved and cared for.

Please email me off-list if you can donate and I will provide vet info so
the donation can go directly to the vet I will also have pictures this
afternoon and can provide them as well as vet estimate/bill paperwork
etc.

Thank you sooo much for caring about Bob!

Shelbyville, KY. - Kasa, the sweet dog with only one eye needs home

Due to my pregnancy, today was my first time to visit the shelter in almost
five weeks. While walking the dog kennels, I was immediately drawn to this
sweet girl. The shelter has named her Kasa. There are mixed opinions of
what she might be, but I think the last poll stated that she is either a
Husky
or Malamute mix. Either way, I was struck how petite she is. She is about
the size of a Sheltie.

Sadly, Kasa's right eye is missing. For lack of a better word, it appears to
have "goo" seeping from out of the eye socket. Poor girl. Can you imagine
the headache and pain you would be in if your eye was poked out???? We don't
know exactly what happened to her eye, but there appears to be no eye ball.

When we got her out of the dog kennel area, we took her to the office area
to take pictures. We discovered to wonderful things about her. First, she
loves cats. She wanted to roll and play with the shelter cat, Mouse.
Secondly, she was very good with my 3 year old daughter. Between the cat and
my
daughter, she didn't know who to play with first!!!!!!

Kasa is very friendly with everyone and is VERY eager to please. She needs
a good bath and veterinary attention for the eye. But other than that, she
appears in good health.

She's impound #9.

Her adoption fee is only $65 and includes a $30 voucher to be applied to her
spay surgery at a vet of your choice.

This shelter is VERY rescue friendly and does not charge a pull fee to
reputable rescue organizations. THE RECEIVING RESCUE MUST MAKE ALL TRANSPORT
ARRANGEMENTS.

This is a county government operated facility and though they try VERY hard
to find all dogs a home or rescue, sometimes they DO have to euthanize, so
let's all work on forwarding this email to get Kasa out!!!!!!

If you can help Kasa, please contact the shelter at: 502-633-0009
IMMEDIATELY if you can help!

POTTSVILLE PA - elderly blind dog NEEDS YOU!!!

All About Vern

He's coming aroung at the shelter. His eyes are clearing up, we do think he can see a little bit. We've fallen in love with the old boy. He is surprisingly neutered, and housebroken. He needs a little bit of recooperation time, but is really in need of a good retirement home. Please help us, and give Vern the good home he needs. He is great with kids, and other dogs too!

Grapevine, TX - sweet, DEAF dog w/cord wrapped around it's neck needs rescue/home

EXTREMELY URGENT - Sweet deaf dog, found in Grapevine, TX (suburb in Dallas area) with blind cord wrapped around his neck.
CALL 817-723-8374 or email Michelle at jonettemichelle@yahoo.com (@yahoo.com)



This darling dog was found about a week ago by a neighbor of a very nice lady named Michelle in Grapevine.  The poor sweet dog had a blind cord wrapped around his neck, that the neighbor cut off, and had fly bites all over his ears (which have now healed). He is as sweet as can be but is deaf which Michelle realized upon trying to call him to give him water.  Appears to possibly be an Aussie, Brittany or Border Collie mix.  Michelle thought perhaps he may be a Husky mix. Her apartments do not allow pets, but the apt manager being an animal lover has made an exception temporarily to allow Michelle time to find him a home. This is of the utmost urgency.

He has been neutered and is housetrained and is a medium size of about 45 pounds. Michelle said he is a really great dog - truly wonderful. He is extremely good with children and Michelle has a 2 1/2 year old that he's gentle and sweet with.  He appears to be a little scared of men in general but warmed up to the apartment manager's husband, also an animal lover.

Please, is there anyone out there that can help this sweet dog? 
If so, call 817-723-8374 or email Michelle at jonettemichelle@yahoo.com (@yahoo.com)
