Snickers update (from his mom, Dee): We have changed his name to….
Sir Snickers Licks-a-lot. Oh, it’s all fun and cute until he wakes you up by licking your ear and neck at 3 a.m. in the morning.
“We Did It!!! The residents of St. Clair Shores and the friends of 4 Paws 1 Heart and Angels Supporting Animals once again showed what a community who comes together can do. We met our goal and the St. Clair Shores K-9 Unit will get all of the additional equipment needed to enhance the unit. We want to thank Colleen’s Irish Pub for all of their support, generosity, wonderful staff, great food and music. We’ll provide more details later in the week. Again, a big Thank YOU. ~ diana
Kennedy is doing GREAT, but I am very sad to say that one by one all of the other 12week old puppies in this litter have died from Parvo. I just found out today that the last puppy died this morning. This makes me so upset because Parvo is preventable! Please have your pet VACCINATED so that people like us don’t have to keep watching innocent puppies die! We took Kennedy because she was the first one showing symptoms. She was sick 2 days before I was contacted. Another group took a puppy, but I’m unsure of the status. Last I heard the pup was receiving a blood transfusion. The rest died in this mans home because he had no money to treat them and he wasn’t willing to surrender them. He thought he could, “make money” off of selling puppies instead this is the 2nd litter, 13 puppies later, 8 suffered and died. This man is on disability and does not drive. He has agreed to surrender the female. 4 Paws 1 Heart will pay for spaying and any other medical needs and the Detroit Bully Corps has offered to take her in. Dog Aide 2012 has offered to transport her to DBC if needed.
2/19/13 HELP–Prayers and Rescues Needed: Kennedy is in need of some major puppy prayers. She is 13 weeks old, 13 pounds, and trying to fight off Parvo virus. Her owner decided to breed pit bulls because he thought he could sell them to make money! However, he didn’t learn the first time when 4 puppies died a slow suffering death one after another from parvo. He decided to breed again and this happens to be a litter of 6! He has no money to care for any of the puppies and I’m afraid that they are all going to die. I’m so sick of watching puppies die as a result of stupidity because people have no value on a living creature! If anyone is in a position to help any of the rest of the litter please let me know ASAP at [email protected]~ Gina
2/22/13 UPDATE ON Kennedy: I’m so happy to post that our Parvo pup has almost made a 100% recovery. Today she has pep in her step and she began to eat and keep it down. We are looking now for someone to foster her for a rescue group or take her into a rescue. She is about ready to go! Thank all for your puppy prayers! Aggressive medical treatment helped her live!! ~ Gina
Libby was rescued from a high-kill shelter but while playing in her foster’s home, she broke her leg at the knee. The surgery was much more than the rescue could afford, so 4 Paws 1 Heart donated medical dollars to help this little girl who has now used up her second of nine lives. ~ diana
February 19, 2013 This dog showed up on the porch of one of our facebook friends. Her co-worker said that she would give her a home but after spaying and obedience training, the person felt the dog was too strong for her to control. The owners name is Pat. Her contact info is [email protected]. She is currently being boarded at her Union Lake Vet in Waterford but the vet will only keep her another week as a favor to the owner. Josie is being medicated with Prozac and zanax and feels Josie should continue on these meds because they feel she has severe separation anxiety. She is 35 lbs and approx 1.5 yrs old and mixed with Staffordshire terrier. We’re putting out a call for help to all of our rescue friends. ~ diana
February 26, 2013 Update:Check Out Josie’s new photo’s on the Pitbull Parents’ fb page. How nice to see her out of a kennel and on a couch. Here’s what her new foster family has to say: ~ diana
