<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">4/24/12:</span></strong> We have some very very sad news to report. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick</span></strong> called me to let me know that the local <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Animal Control</span></strong> was called out to <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B's</span></strong> property yesterday (4/23) per the request of the <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">County Sheriff's Department</span></strong>. Apparently an officer was out on the property on another matter and noticed all the dogs. He called the Sheriff's Dept who in turn called the local Shelter to go out an pick them up. None of us were there, but they apparently picked up 16 dogs yesterday. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick</span></strong> said when he went there today, Animal Control was there again and picked up another 4 today. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> I immediately called the Shelter manager to let her know that our Group was trying to help Mr B with those dogs and not to let anything happen to them. I then received the devastating news that it was too late...due to an already overcrowded shelter, they were given the orders to euthanize all of the dogs. I for one and completely heartbroken to say the least. The Shelter Manager told me there are 4 at the shelter right now that they picked up today and to contact the <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">County Sheriff's Dept</span></strong> to let them know what was going on. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick </span></strong>and<strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"> I</span></strong> met with the<strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"> Chief Investigator</span></strong> this afternoon. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Long story short...this was a very sad and unfortunate event. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B</span></strong> signed all the dogs over (hence no hold time) because he was told he would face felony cruelty charges if he didn't. The County did not know we were helping <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr B</span></strong>, nor did the shelter. Yes, the shelter was contacted about a month ago (both in this area were) and at that time neither would help. However, because it was now considered a cruelty case, the shelter had no choice but to go out to the property and take the dogs. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> We are completely sickened by the whole thing. Apparently <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr B</span></strong> was told that he could keep 3 dogs. There are approx 12 dogs still out there they think (including Blue Eyes who has not yet given birth). The plan was for them (the Shelter) to pick up the rest of them on Thur. The <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Chief Investigator</span></strong> has promised us that nothing will happen to the 4 at the shelter and that they would not attempt to pick up any more so that we could have some time to work on rescue for the remaining dogs. He is supposed to call the Shelter and straighten everything out. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick </span></strong>and <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">I</span></strong> reviewed the goals with the <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Chief Inv.</span></strong> and he is willing to work with us provided we keep a check on the whole situation. We only have approximately 1 month to get a majority of the dogs out and into rescue.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> What we plan to do is go back out there and take pics of the dogs that remain on the property. We want to move forward with the plan to bring pens out there so that we can spay and neuter all the remaining dogs. We believe the that 4 from the shelter MAY be released back to <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">MR B</span></strong> so that we can work on their rescue as well (we won't know for sure until tomorrow). The <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Revolution </span></strong>arrived today (sadly)...we can start to treat them for mange when we go out to set up the pens. We will then be BEGGING for some rescues to take some of the remaining dogs before something happens again so please keep spreading the word. The remaining dogs still need decent shelter so we definitely can still use the pallets, etc. We can better assess the water situation when we go out there again too. We will still need food on an ongoing basis because we promised to make sure the dogs would be well fed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> This has been a very difficult day to say that least. I am sure that <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr B</span></strong> is beyond devastated as well. We want to thank everyone for their continued support in this endeavor. Many innocent lives were lost today, but let's please not let them die in vain. We can still make a difference. Thank you for taking the time to read this.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Update 4/25/12</span></strong>: We have heard more devastating news. Apparently the 4 dogs that were picked up yesterday were euthanized as well. Not sure exactly what changed between when <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">I</span></strong> left the Sheriff's office, but we WILL get to the bottom of it. We know that several of the remaining dogs will need rescue IMMEDIATELY so PLEASE ask around. As we said before, we have <em>Revolution</em> to treat their mange and will provide food if someone could take one or more in to keep them safe in the meantime. We WILL contact the media if needed, but we are hoping that all parties are willing to work together to help <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B</span></strong> and his ramaining dogs. We will know more tomorrow. Prayers needed on this one folks...</span> <br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Many of you may already know the situation <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"><em>Woof Connections</em></span></strong> is currently trying to help with in Arkansas, but for those of you who do not, here is the summary. We were contacted by <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Kevin's</span></strong> niece, <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Wendy</span></strong>, about a large pack of dogs (some apparently starving) on some property not far from us. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Wendy's</span></strong> friends,<span style="color: #b45f06;"> <strong>Robin</strong></span> and <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick</span></strong>, took a picture of some of the dogs that <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Wendy</span></strong> later "tagged" <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Allie</span></strong> in on <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"><em>Facebook.</em></span></strong> </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Well of course we knew we had to help in some way. Over the past few weeks, a team of us (<strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Kevin</span></strong>, <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Allie</span></strong>, <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Wendy C</span></strong>., <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Robin C</span></strong>., <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Nick, C</span></strong>., <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Lauren Y.,</span></strong> <span style="color: #b45f06;"><strong>Brian Y</strong>.,</span> and <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Kelly S</span></strong>.) have befriended the owner of the dogs, <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B</span></strong>. The team of course goes beyond these people, but these are the ones on the "front lines" at this point (will pay respect to the others in a bit). <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B</span></strong> has a good heart, but he just didn't have enough funds to spay and neuter the dogs so it quickly became out of control. There are currently at least <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">35</span></strong> adult dogs and several puppies (that we could see anyway) on the property. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Some people do not realize this, but people often dump dogs in the country when they are no longer wanted. In this area, there is no animal control facility that will claim responsibility for the strays in the country because they are considered "county dogs". Therefore, the numbers multiply quickly or sadly, the dogs just do not make it. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"> Mr. B</span></strong> tries to care for many of the unwanted strays. We must be clear here...we are NOT going to belittle<strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"> Mr. B</span></strong>. Yes, we realize that the conditions on this property are far from ideal. We are there to help at this point. However, we hope that <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Mr. B</span></strong> will learn to trust us in time and will allow us to re-home some of the dogs he is understandably attached to. He has already allowed us to take several puppies and a pregnant dog so far. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Our immediate goals include building proper shelters for the dogs as well as some smaller pens. We plan to spay the females as soon as we can get smaller pens built for recovery areas and secure the appointments. Most of these dogs have not been socialized with other people very much, so they will be flight risks. We are needing 10 x 10 pens, fencing material, large dogs houses, and other materials necessary to make this come together. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">After the "pack" can be separated into smaller groups to make it more manageable, we plan to start treating them for mange with <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"><em>Revolution</em></span></strong>. It appears they all have sarcoptic mange and are absolutely miserable right now (it is caused by mites that burrow under the skin...they itch tremendously). We want to thank our good friends at <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;"><em>Wish Upon a Paw</em></span></strong> in Wisconsin, <strong><span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: #b45f06;">Emily A</span>. </span></strong>and <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Natalie N.</span></strong>, for their VERY GENEROUS donation! They are in the process of sending us an entire case of <em><strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Revolution</span></strong></em> (saving us nearly <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">$600</span></strong>)!

<span style="font-size: large;">We are waiting on some information regarding low-cost spay/neuters in Memphis and surrounding areas. We could really use some experienced dog rescuers to help transport the females to their appointments in Memphis. <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">Allie</span></strong> is generally available to pick them up, but since most of us work full-time, we have a very difficult time getting them to their appointments in the morning. If you can help, please call<strong><span style="color: orange;"> </span><span style="color: #b45f06;">Allie</span></strong> at <strong><span style="color: #b45f06;">901-240-9848</span></strong> or email </span><a href="mailto:allieot98@yahoo.com"><strong><span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: large;">allieot98@yahoo.com</span></strong></a><span style="font-size: large;"> We could use some large crates for transport as well (we will certainly return them when we finish). </span><br />

Less than 2 weeks ago, the family said goodbye to their 7 babies. Bittersweet for sure....this wonderful family fostered <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Sissy</span></strong> and her puppies for the past several weeks. Believe it or not, this was their first foster experience and it was quite a learning experience! Poor <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Sissy</span></strong> has had some medical issues (skin infection, mastitis, etc.) and her puppies have been a handful! <span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);"><strong>Stephanie</strong></span> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Franck </span></strong>have been absolutely wonderful throughout and we could not have asked for a more compassionate foster family. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></p></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;"> </span></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;">Our friends at <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Wish Upon a Paw </span></strong>in Wisconsin (</span><a href="http://wishuponapaw.org/"><strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);font-size:130%;" >http://wishuponapaw.org/</span></strong></a><span style="font-size:130%;">), have been complete angels as well! Our friends, <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Emily</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Natalie, </span></strong>started <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">WISH</span></strong> last May, although neither of them are strangers to rescue! <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">WISH</span></strong> offered to take in 2 of the puppies right off the bat and find them homes (they ended up with 3 though..oops). Then...without hesitation, they agreed to "courtesy post" the rest of the litter (just to see what happens)! WOW...what craziness followed! <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Jaime</span></strong>, the <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Canine Adoption Coordinator</span></strong>, was inundated with applications for these babies! Some of you may remember...<strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Jaime</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Glen </span></strong>adopted 2 of our babies (now named <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Riley</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Miles</span></strong>) who originally came from the <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Osceola Animal Shelter</span></strong> in Arkansas and we have been great friends ever since! Thankfully, <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Stephanie</span></strong> was an integral part in the adoption process. As a foster mom, no one knows these babies better than she does so her input and expertise was invaluable! </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></p></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;"> </span></div><div><span style="font-size:130%;">We cannot thank<strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);"> WISH</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Stephanie</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Franck</span></strong> enough for all their help with these cuties!

Her foster mommy, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Stephanie</span></strong>, messaged me a couple days ago that she was very worried about<strong><span style="color:#663300;"> Sissy</span></strong>. She had a fairly high temperature and was obviously not herself (i.e., shaking, not eating, etc.). We were so worried that she was going to dehydrate, so we made the decision to take her to the emergency vet. It turns out that poor <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy </span></strong>has mastitis in 2 teats (blocked milk ducts, causing infection, inflammation, etc.). Read info on mastitis here: </span><a href="http://www.vetinfo.com/symptoms-mastitis-dogs.html"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#663300;">http://www.vetinfo.com/symptoms-mastitis-dogs.html</span></strong></a><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">It became official...no more nursing for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy</span></strong>. No worries...the puppies were already beginning to wean anyway. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy </span></strong>was obviously uncomfortable. She was placed on medication and given take home instructions. One of the 2 teats with mastitis abscessed tonight. She has an open abscess, which is considered the better alternative.... <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Stephanie</span></strong> sent me an update this evening:<br /><br /><em><span style="color:#663300;">The abscess opened more tonight. The abscessed area is roughly a circle with a 2-inch diameter. At first, there was a small hole that the pus was draining from (maybe 1/4 inch diameter), but the skin within the rest of the circle was very saggy and necrotic in areas. Tonight that area has sloughed off, so now the opening is about the size of a quarter, maybe slightly bigger. The vet is going to keep an eye on Sissy during the day tomorrow and possibly Saturday (minimal day fee, it's just for precaution). This way they can monitor the surrounding tissue for sign of spreading infection (which would indicate surgical removal) and thoroughly flush the abscess (Sissy was really not happy with us doing this tonight). She's on a decent amount of pain meds, and sleeps most of the time. </span></em></span><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;">PLEASE say prayers for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy</span></strong>. We are incredibly grateful for her foster family. We shutter to think what would happen to Sissy if she were still in the trailer park. FOSTERING SAVES LIVES EVERYONE!!! </span></p><br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy's</span></strong> bills are now over <strong><span style="color:#663300;">$600</span></strong> and she hasn't even been spayed/vaccinated yet.

For those of you who may not know,<strong><span style="color:#663300;"> Noelle</span></strong> was found at <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Lakeshore Trailer Park</span></strong> in Arkansas (not far from Memphis). She was the victim of another apparent doggy dumping... <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Noelle</span></strong> is under a year old and is the sweetest girl you will ever meet! She is being fostered by <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Rose</span></strong> and her family in Missouri (we love you <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Rose</span></strong> for helping us out!). <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Noelle</span></strong> gets to play with lots of other doggies at her foster home and gets along with everyone (including cats!). She is a good size too at only about <strong><span style="color:#663300;">37</span> </strong>pounds! She is spayed; up-to-date on her vaccinations; heartworm negative; and on heartworm preventative! All she needs is a great home!<br /><br />We also wanted to thank <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Noelle's</span></strong> first foster mom, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Laura,</span></strong> in Memphis, for taking <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Noelle</span></strong> right from the "streets" along with her buddy, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Champ</span></strong>. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Laura</span></strong> is fostering <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Champ </span></strong>through his heartworm treatment, so we needed to find another foster home for her so that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Champ</span> </strong>could rest. Fostering truly is a matter of life or death in most cases, so we thank you ladies from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Rose </span></strong>was asked what type of home would best suit <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Noelle</span></strong> and this is her response (condensed in some parts):<br /><br /><em>"I feel she is the kind of dog that would be happy as a only dog or with a friend. When she is the only dog in the house she loves to sit by me and get lots of love..then when they are all outside or in the house she loves to play. So I think either way she would be fine..She just loves to be loved on..She is definitely house trained as she as had no accidents in here no matter how long she is in. </em><br /><br /><em>It doesn't matter the size of the other dog she plays with. Right now I have a Chihuahua I pulled from the Pound and she loves to play with her and she knows how to be easy with her. She is a active dog cause I have a good sized back yard and she likes to play. However, she isn't much on running so if she was in a yard where she had to be walked (i.e., not fenced in) or a smaller yard she would be ok too. She doesn't mind if she is alone for a few hours either (no matter if she is in her kennel or not). </em><br /><em></em><br /><em>Noelle loves to be outside when it is nice out. But when she comes in she will crash for hours..lol. I love the shine to her coat,she really is a very pretty dog....Oh ya and she is ok with cats.. She will chase themn occasionally but I think she does the chasing because of a dog I have her right now that does it, otherwise she doesn't pay them any attention at all." </em></span><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;">Check out some pictures of Noelle below.

Platelets were a little high today, but <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Doc</span> </strong>is not concerned about that (would be more concerned if they were low she said) and her red blood cell count is normal!!!<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie</span></strong> has gained weight from last week too.

OMG...this is AMAZING NEWS! She has not eaten anything on her own since she was hospitalized on <strong><span style="color:#663300;">January 25th</span></strong>!!! I know this may be premature, but I truly believe this girl is going to thrive. She has so many people concerned about her and praying for her! <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Doc</span></strong> was laughing when she told me that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie</span></strong> threw up on her husband who was nice enough to go with her to the clinic...this was BEFORE she ate. Apparently she injected the antibiotic too quickly in the IV bag and it didn't agree with <span style="color:#663300;"><strong>Jessie</strong><span style="color:#000000;"> (</span><span style="color:#000000;">so sorry</span> <strong>Steve</strong><span style="color:#000000;">). Anyway, we don't want to sound like a broken record, but please keep <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie</span></strong> in your prayers. She is not out-of-the-woods yet, but this is a wonderful step in the right direction!</span></span><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#663300;">UPDATE 2/05/12:</span></strong> You may have read the title yesterday "Prayers Seem To Be Working for Jessie". Well..<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Doc</span></strong> called with the latest blood test results. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie </span></strong>is just not responding to the antibiotics. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Doc</span></strong> is going to put her on a 4th antibiotic and is going to the Emergency Center to get the injectable version as well. She is not positive, but feels she may be getting septic. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie's</span></strong> red blood cell count is close to normal now and her platelet count has improved as well, however, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Doc</span></strong> said that is likely due to the blood transfusion (rather than her body doing it on its own basically). The biggest concern is her white blood cell count continues to rise. It is near 60,000 and should be close to 20,000. So the news is not good. It does not help that she isn't eating still. Doc says <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Jessie</span></strong> is a very complicated case since her previous antibiotics should have taken care of any possible sepsis. Please please pray for this girl. Her spirits are better (wags her tail, more alert, etc.), but her bloodwork says otherwise. </span></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></div>*****************************************************************<br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;">It has been so difficult to keep up with the<strong><span style="color:#663300;"><em> Blog</em></span></strong> lately (especially when <em><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Facebook</span></strong></em> is much faster and easier to access!) so please forgive us. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kevin </span></strong>and<strong><span style="color:#663300;"> I</span></strong> have been very busy the last few weekends.

Well, that situation has been very sad. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly </span></strong>notified us that one of the puppies passed last week (I believe the runt). The babies were being bottle fed because <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel</span></strong> had some issues with her milk and was "done" with nursing them so<strong><span style="color:#663300;"> Kelly </span></strong>and her family have had their work cut out for them. Well, last night I received a call from <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly</span></strong> with more bad news. Apparently the baby that passed away had hydrocephalus (fluid on the brain) as this was confirmed by necropsy. Now, 4 more babies have presented with the same symptoms and 1 of the 4 has just passed yesterday (RIP babies). Here is the latest update from <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly</span></strong>:<br /><br /><em>Update on Angel's babies....After a very long day and night, we have lost another baby of Angel's. We are on our way to losing two more as I type this. This afternoon we were at the vet's office and he diagnosed dying baby two with hydrocephalus. Baby number 3 is definitely neurologic and his head is very bloated. ...Baby number four is very anemic and getting neurologic. We are at that age when this can happen and we just need to do everything we can to keep them comfy and hopefully they can overcome this. With Angel's bad nutrition during her pregnancy, I am concerned as to how much immune system they actually have and how much fight they actually have. </em></span><br /><em><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></em><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">PLEASE say a prayer for the other babies. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly </span></strong>feels encouraged about the 4 that do not have any symptoms. We will update you as soon as we hear anything. Thank you so much <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly </span></strong>for trying so hard and doing everything you can for them!

Oh how I miss this sweet girl. All the puppies seem to be doing well so far, but there is some concern about <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel's</span></strong> milk production. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel</span></strong> and pups were moved to <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly's</span></strong> house Sunday evening (<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Mostly Mutts</span></strong> Director) so that she can keep an eye on <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel </span></strong>and provide supplemental feeding if necessary (<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly </span></strong>has extensive experience with mommies and puppies). </span><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Kelly</span></strong> is going to take <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel</span></strong> to see the ortho specialist about her leg. She has already seen one vet already. It turns out that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel's</span></strong> scapula is pushing on her spine (waiting for xrays still). She does not have any feeling in her foot and most of the way up toward her should. Future plans include amputation of not only her leg, but part of her shoulder/scapula as well. More bad news...<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel</span></strong> is heartworm positive (we figured she would be though). The vet feels she should be treated for heartworms first (after puppies are weaned of course) and then work on the leg/shoulder amputation later. She will need some more doggy angels to help with this so we hope to have a <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Chip In</span></strong> up and running very soon!</span></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;">Check out some pictures of <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angel </span></strong>and her <strong><span style="color:#663300;">9 </span></strong>puppies below (puppies are 1 week and 1 day old):<br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhUFv1_BNgMvRXVhYROPbg0cD2hyFe-__UVQ4VTCZb9rzRXtORwYYdEG-nIMJNBKzywGOyWEw95VSid60Cfuoz_G22OTnUd0BSCquxlIej-e6G-VmujOMtXaw12fGm2Yf2Z57Xjr25edk/s1600/Angel+and+pups+6.jpg"><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="WIDTH: 313px;

PLEASE ignore the yard- one or more of the doggies got into some type of trash and decided it would be fun to litter the yard with it. Thank goodness the video was taken before tonight because a phone book was shredded this time!<br /><br />Please share this post as these two cuties are looking for their forever homes! Technically they can go to our friend's no kill shelter in Wisconsin, however everyone would prefer they find homes and/or foster homes first if at all possible. These are 2 very special doggies and we want the best for both of them of course. Neither of them has had ANY accidents in their big pens at all (they learned the routine very quickly and have ample space to "go" if they had to, but they have been fantastic!). <br /><br /></span><iframe height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wOBjmZ8HQRs?hl=en&fs=1" frameborder="0" width="425"></iframe><br /><br /><iframe height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JoZNH1R6nRk?hl=en&fs=1" frameborder="0" width="425"></iframe>Woof Connectionshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08295922478659366851noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-237946724453910272.post-48517447038377342442011-10-23T00:51:00.008-05:002011-10-23T01:34:01.262-05:00ANGEL MADE IT TO ST.

She had wandered off and the gal went looking all over for her. Someone had hit her and left her...<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sally</span></strong> was on the list to be spayed next week and her owner had asked for us to find her a home. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">RIP Regal Sally... </span></strong><br /><br /></span><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghNTpgiVBW0aTVNEC8yrKuUCKFAscLNI4c8BcB1jZ2gCWm60TrzE0Oaj4i_D5ANi9lgVh6LhW3FQJUKkIHeBwbjLFiafRM20sbJD5Yak-plrJGGC6rYNyFHw7DEQ1zMnbd4WDThuLpPjE/s1600/Sally+7.jpg"><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 286px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5662067721886137074" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghNTpgiVBW0aTVNEC8yrKuUCKFAscLNI4c8BcB1jZ2gCWm60TrzE0Oaj4i_D5ANi9lgVh6LhW3FQJUKkIHeBwbjLFiafRM20sbJD5Yak-plrJGGC6rYNyFHw7DEQ1zMnbd4WDThuLpPjE/s320/Sally+7.jpg" /></span></a></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;">The face of an angel</span></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijcCumTwut623uikhuqJQAIMejYWdhdUNexkaTA1JMiZ1QfDYToocUujwjwraklyO6t-6OWkt9J21XYHER2oyvlIruqIEFRWywhULiqhGVh7CyAd7yThaLE-784hfW6OKZ-jDPH5tSlnQ/s1600/Sally+5.jpg"><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5662066710747492674" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijcCumTwut623uikhuqJQAIMejYWdhdUNexkaTA1JMiZ1QfDYToocUujwjwraklyO6t-6OWkt9J21XYHER2oyvlIruqIEFRWywhULiqhGVh7CyAd7yThaLE-784hfW6OKZ-jDPH5tSlnQ/s320/Sally+5.jpg" /></span></a></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;">My favorite photo of<strong><span style="color:#663300;"> Sally</span></strong>- what a precious girl<br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGtqiVGB_S6pnzo_277bMHqKoXen7Bow8WVrWGwX5MWffrXIoBDnn3BDC50AQX7JK2aJ-rEjiBFO7qFONqMHzycEmQRCaHsAFx8SR1Y9qifLfZ3AzTY1gfiGM9MNAKjg5-3brPub1-SFM/s1600/Sally+3.jpg"><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 209px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5662066702036196994" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGtqiVGB_S6pnzo_277bMHqKoXen7Bow8WVrWGwX5MWffrXIoBDnn3BDC50AQX7JK2aJ-rEjiBFO7qFONqMHzycEmQRCaHsAFx8SR1Y9qifLfZ3AzTY1gfiGM9MNAKjg5-3brPub1-SFM/s320/Sally+3.jpg" /></span></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRNZFbexhwNBqnzg_eURcTWfsvl4rgWBf09OYXMqSglLdIs64zJh5FBCn_L4822oLnhD5-tc3JOo-Cah_YoB_LvrV-IMErtzlrya4nPtZsFi7gEzNh7VYlxatkDK7o3amBEc6Basbjl3k/s1600/Sally.jpg"></a><span style="font-size:130%;">Then there was this gorgeous gal.

This was the first time that these ladies had met the "<strong><span style="color:#663300;">Lakeshore</span></strong> Doggies" and I could tell right away that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy </span></strong>was just not acting like her jovial self. Angel <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angie </span></strong>offered to take her to her vet in Jonesboro, AR to have her looked at by her vet. </span>

<br />
<br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="color:#000000;">Well....it turns out that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy</span></strong> had parvo. Devastating news as you can imagine. However, we were optimistic that we caught it early since I had just seen her 2 days previously and she was very happy and playful. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy </span></strong>began IV fluids immediately along with all the medications used to treat parvo. We were told she would require IV fluids for anywhere from 2 to 7 days at a cost of...well it could be a lot. Angel <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angie</span></strong> visited her every single day to help keep her spirits up. It was definitely touch and go for quite a while. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy</span></strong> ultimately required 7 days of IV fluids but we are happy to report that she is doing FANTASTIC! </span><span style="color:#000000;">We did not use <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Chip In</span></strong> money for her. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Angie</span></strong> and her husband, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">John</span></strong>, agreed to split the cost of <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy's</span></strong> bill from the beginning (absolutely wonderful people).

<br />Then there's <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong>... <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon</span></strong> was nice enough to take him home along with <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Destiny</span></strong> and a litter of 3 puppies. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> is <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy's </span></strong>brother. We had a feeling that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake </span></strong>may come down with the dreaded parvo. 2 days after <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sissy</span></strong> went to the vet, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon</span></strong> called me to tell me <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake </span></strong>was not feeling well. He was not eating... My stomach sank. Thankfully, my husband was off that Thursday so he drove 1 1/2 hours (one way) to pick up <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> and take him to Memphis to the vet. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> was lethargic when he arrived, so we told the vet to treat <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> as if he were one of our foster doggies (which means..do whatever is necessary to help the little guy). How could we treat one sibling and not the other??? Well....<strong><span style="color:#663300;">God</span></strong> was looking after <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> as well. It turns out that <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> only needed 24 hours of IV fluids and medications of course. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Dr. G</span></strong> said that he was so loaded with hookworms and roundworms (and likely tapeworms). A skin scape confirmed that he has demodectic mange (non-contagious) and an ear infection, so he will be treated for both. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake's</span></strong> bill was just under <strong><span style="color:#663300;">$300</span></strong> (including special canned food for his tummy and boarding costs). The <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Chip In</span></strong> was used to pay for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake's </span></strong>bill so much gratitude for those who donated.

<br />Now for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Destiny </span></strong>(aka "mange girl"). <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon</span></strong> fell in love with this sweetheart as did I. She was the first doggy that stood out when I drove around the trailer park. This precious girl is so friendly and sweet. It's a crying shame that people are the way they are (some of them anyway). We actually had a man drive up in his pickup truck while we were there and said "That one right there should be shot...she got the mange". Another neighbor shared his wisdom (NOT) that all she needed was motor oil poured on her. Destiny was immediately put on antibiotics and ivermectin to treat the mange. Her bill so far is around <strong><span style="color:#663300;">$75</span></strong>, paid for by the <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Chip In</span></strong>. Again...those of you who donated have helped yet another precious life.

Actually, she wants her to have a better life. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sally </span></strong>is only about 2 she said. This poor girl will be pregnant again in no time if she doesn't get spayed. We told the woman why were in the trailer park and asked if she knew any puppies or doggies in need. She proceeded to show us 3 little puppies who were just precious and told us she would love help finding them homes. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon </span></strong>immediately put them in her crate as they were completely infested with fleas.

<br /><strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sally's</span></strong> 3 puppies: <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon</span></strong> named them <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Larry</span></strong>, <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Moreen</span></strong>, and <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Curly</span></strong>! One of the 3 started feeling "not so great" within the last couple of days (diarrhea, etc.) so she separated him from the other 2. <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon</span></strong> suspected ringworm as well. She took them to the vet today and it turns out that the sick puppy has parvo as well. The vet in MS gave him subcutaneous fluids and prescribed <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Tamiflu</span></strong> at our request so <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Sharon </span></strong>is going to treat the sick little guy as well as the other 2 (just in case). The bill was <strong><span style="color:#663300;">$115</span></strong> for the <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Tamiflu</span> </strong>and almost <strong><span style="color:#663300;">$90</span></strong> for the vet visit (fecal, parvo test, etc.). Please pray for these babies....

We want people to know that 100% of these funds will be used for the animals. As of today, there is a fairly large bill already at the vet for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong>, so please continue to share so that we can get some of the females at the Trailer park spayed as well. We have also paid for antibiotics for <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Destiny</span></strong> (mange girl) and <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake </span></strong>(prior to going to the vet). We hope to scan in receipts if our scanner cooperates later this week. </span></p>
<br />
<br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;">My husband and I personally cannot be "involved" in helping certain animals without treating them the same as we would a foster doggy, etc. (once we physically meet them anyway). For example, some people may believe we should not have taken <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Drake</span></strong> to the vet for IV fluids (choosing perhaps to "let him go" due to the funding issue), however we just cannot do that. We will figure out a way to help pay for them if we have to sell something to do it. That's just how we roll...
<br /></span></p>

<br /><p><span style="font-size:130%;">Please continue to share the <strong><span style="color:#663300;">Chip In</span></strong>. We have already been blessed to have received wonderful donations (thank you so much contributors), however the need is so much greater than what we can cover. Thanks so much!
