Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone has a bountiful, relaxing Thanksgiving.

We have a few new faces here - again - and they are looking for sponsors. We have two more due in over the holidays - - - - - - -

DJ - This old gent is about 13 years young with a heart of gold. He could no longer navigate the stairs in his owners home, so he is here - - - - - - - and would love to find a forever home soon. DJ is a prime candidate for long term foster home/care. If you are interested, please let me know. DJ is arthritic, so a home with one floor - or a home where he would be comfortable on one floor is a must. This boy is a sweetheart.

King - This old boy was dumped alongside a rural road and left to die. King came to us with severe ear infections which have left him mostly or completely deaf, dry eye problems (which have affected his vision), heartworm positive (and cannot be treated now due to all his other issues), severely infested with intestinal worms, and very arthritic. We are treating his immediate needs now (ears, eyes, intestinal worms) and will probably put him on a long term program for heartworm disease as he is not strong enough right now to undergo treatment. We will also hold off on his neuter as his condition will not support anethesia. In spite of all his problems, this old dog has heart - and guts - and a tremendous will to live. We need people to help us with his current and future medical needs.

King

Fella - 7 year old Fella suffers from severe separation anxiety. We didn't know this when he came to us, so it has been a rocky road for him so far. Fella doesn't always like other dogs, so sadly he is going to require a special home. He's a wonderful dog who has been passed from one family member to another and then to rescue. That cannot happen again - Fella needs his own person and home. His anxiety can be controlled with the aid of some moderately priced prescription drugs and it is our hope that he will find that special home that he so deserves.

Fella

Once again, thank you, everyone for your support. If you are travelling this holiday season, please be safe.
