Daisy

Our vet contacted us about a 5 week old puppy that had been brought into their clinic by a breeder. The breeder was going to have the puppy euthanized because they did not want to pay to have her injured, rear leg treated. Her leg had become severely infected and she was very sick.

The little black and white pup, later named Daisy, had a great will to live and we took her into our program. Daisy had to have the infection drained twice a day and her little leg re-wrapped. She was a real trooper through the whole ordeal. We took Daisy to see a special surgeon who discovered the worse - Daisy's leg had been broken and the infection had severely damaged bone, ligaments and cartilage. The surgeon recommended amputating her leg due to the damage that had been done. He said we needed to wait until she was 4-5 months old before she could have the surgery. So off Daisy went, with her bandaged leg, to live with foster mom, Jean – it was a special home where Daisy could snuggle with her foster mom and get lots of love and attention. Each week Jean drove the little pup to get her leg examined and rewrapped. And then, about a week before her surgery, as the doctor was unwrapping Daisy’s leg, he noticed it seemed very stable and decided to let her walk without the splint.  To everyone’s surprise Daisy was walking without any problem and no signs of pain! No one is sure how it healed, but today Daisy is walking, running and chasing cats in her now “forever” home – yes, Jean fell in love and adopted Daisy!

We are so thankful that our vet contacted us about this little puppy. Because of your support and generosity we are able to help animals like Daisy that come into our program.


Dude

“He just won’t listen, and I don’t like the way he looks at me!” Those were the reasons we were given. When Annette met the little dog she couldn’t believe his owner had made an appointment for a “one-way trip” to the vet! Annette knew she had to do something to help Dude so she told his owner that she would find him a new home. When Annette brought Dude to Rescued Tails everyone who met him fell in love – what a sweet little dog! Dude was the perfect gentleman everywhere he went, and he listened very well. Hundreds of miles away Renee had been searching online for a new dog, and when she spotted Dude on our web site she just had to find out more – even though she lived over 1,100 miles away in New York City! Renee and Regina made the long journey out to meet Dude, and the next day all three were in the car headed back to the Big Apple! It was quite an adjustment for Dude to make living in a studio apartment on Broadway Street in New York City, but he is doing quite well. He even has a new name – William! William has started his beginning obedience class, and we are confident he will be a star student!

 A special thanks to Annette and Fred for rescuing Dude, and fostering him until the perfect home was found!
