Lil' Petey, Arky and Sadie

Little Petey
I have been really sick. I never get sick, but when you help people instead of animals, it's easier to pick up an ailment. Next time, I'm sticking to animals.

Talking about sickness, there is little Petey on his way to Marin right this minute. He is a little three month blue nose from Kern County. He is not doing very well right now. They say he has an upper respiratory infection, but I'm thinking he's been in the shelter so long and just began to debilitate. I know once we get him to Bibi's, he'll begin to perk up. She is on her way to the store right now to get Rescue Remedy, chicken broth and rice which is all he can eat. He ordered this as well as let us know his name.

Sadie and puppies
He got sick last night in Sheila's car traveling to For the Birds boarding from KCAC. I was a little nervous, but was assured by Sheila it was only carsickness. With these little ones and the big shelters who are so overwhelmed, you must be very careful. I'm always for the good diet and holistic measures as opposed to nasty toxic antibiotics.

Sadie is the momma dog who got out of KCAC Thursday with nine puppies. She is safe and in a nice foster home dash office. Shane, who is an incredible person, offered to foster this mom along with the puppies until they're ready to be adopted. They already had two baths to try and get the stinky off. She had a spa treatment. O boy!

Arky
Arky is on my mind today. He has very watery urates and is feeling puny. He's acting just like Paris Hilton did, which is why I'm so concerned. Paris Hilton died. I've given Arky some echinacea, colloidal silver, super aloe vera detox and milk thistle. He's still on the bottom of the cage which is a worry with any bird. I am not taking him to the avian vet though. I will not lose another bird by stressing him out. No, I won't.

I'm also having a problem with Darla. She is a German Shepherd, but not my dog. I get all these dogs over my computer every single day. Had a lady who wanted a GSD, so sent her to Martinez to visit Darla. She adopted and then took Darla to Peninsula Humane Society where she's been for a month being evaluated. Very crazy. I even have an adopter for Darla, but he can't even go visit.

The group which first alerted me to Darla has completely washed their hands of the matter. I realize people deal with stress and sadness in different ways, but if you're going to last in rescue work, you have to not give up on the dog. I finally had to tell them to take me off this list. I have a feeling I'll be seeing more of Darla and hopefully, less of them.

*****THIS IS A COPIED POST FROM FACEBOOK..the same account that imedia ethics and Amsterdog had American Pit Bull Examiner column shut down along with thousands of articles about dogs like this.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=554321138060834&set=a.249252178567733.1073741827.100004488576790&type=3&theater


Manhattan Shelter, NYC, NY

***THEY USE TO SLEEP TOGETHER .... And, now they cry for each other. Balboa and brother Rocky have never been separated or away from each other - until now. Can you imagine no more children to play with, no more dog parks to run in, no more sleeping with your brother for comfort - the life you knew just gone one day! Little does Rocky know his brother BALBOA WILL BE KILLED MON FEB 22 AT NYCACC - MANHATTAN, NY***

They are being surrendered because the owner is no longer allowed to have both in the home. He received them both from a breeder 2 years ago.

Socialization: They are very friendly and outgoing with strangers. They lived in a home with small children and played well with them. They get very excited when they hear or see other dogs.They play exuberantly with each other and are very vocal when they play. (growl, jump and mouth each others faces.) They have not been around cats. They have not bitten anyone or any other animal.
Behavior: Rocky and Balboa are always walked together 2 or 3 times a day. They love to go to the dog run and play with each other and other dogs. They enjoy baths and being hosed down in the street. They are well trained and according to the owner, allow to have their food bowl, treats, and toys taken away from them, even by the children in the home.

For a new family to know: Rocky and Balboa are described as friendly and playful. They may appear big but are cuddlly and affectionate. The owners favorite thing about them is that they are good listeners and are protective.

Rescue only - Not doing well in the shelter environment. Seems to be acting out. Remember his world has been turned upside down!

TO SAVE BALBOA, please go to his thread for assistance. Death row pups only get 18 hrs to find a home. KILLING STARTS AT 1:00.

Imedia page is stating 9 of every 10 dogs are saved at NYC Shelters...this post states these two will die today.

❌URGENT - E-LISTED - SICK❌
This poor boo is a "project dog" who volunteers are working with due to his fear. However, the poor kid has been sick and he isn't getting better. He is on Doxy, so hopefully we will see an improvement, but if not, he will have a medical deadline. Deadline or not, he really should be out in order to get better. He looked miserable today with nasal discharge and labored breathing.

He also has significant hair loss and the skin scrape was negative for parasites.
