10/27/13: OMG – Look at how big our baby is getting??? We love you Snickers!!! xox ~ Aunt Di
10/26/13: FINALLY SATURDAY IS HERE!! Meet Pips and Jax who were brought into the Emergency last week. You can check them out at www.providingforpaws.org
10/25/13: As we’ve told our supporters so many times, as long as 4 Paws 1 Heart has the money, we will never turn down a request to spay or neuter a dog or cat rescued by a good samaritan. Here is the story of Mummee who we were happy to help with spaying, vaccinations, and de-worming. We wish her the very best in finding that forever, loving home. A big thank you to Patterson Veterinary for working with 4P1H. ~ diana
“This is Sweet-Mummee, abused and abandoned as a kitten… she had 2 litters of kittens back to back. By the grace of God, she wasn’t pregnant for the third time. She was extremely underweight when she was captured with her 5 kittens. Now, 2 months later her kittens are all in foster-to-adopt situations and Sweet-Mummee is on the mend. No longer can you see her pelvic bones, and her stool is coming back to the right color, due to rapid weight loss in the past.
When a door is opened this sweet child gets a worried look … Looking at her face, it’s easy to see she is saying; “please don’t throw me outside again”, and at that she runs away from the opened door. For such a young and petite little girl, she has an old soul… When picked up, she purrs like a roaring engine to show her love and appreciation. She is greatly loved, and will require a family that will love and worship her. She prefers NOT to ever have her food bowl empty and enjoys a large water bowl. It’s pure joy watching this child give herself a bath.”
I am so excited because I am going to see all my friends from 4 Paws 1 Heart tomorrow at Carson’s at Partridge Creek for their coupon book fundraiser from 10am to noon. Stop by and see me there too!
10/25/13 DUKE UPDATE: This morning Duke did have his leg amputated. The specialist at OVRS agreed with our doctors at Harper Woods Veterinary Hospital. Gina will be fostering during his recovery. ~ diana
10/23/13 – MEET DUKE — This handsome, sweet boy is 15 weeks old, his owner accidentally ran him over with his car. Duke suffered injuries to his chest and he suffered injuries to his right rear leg that was broken very badly. His injury will require amputation surgery which we would like to get done as soon as possible because he is in a lot of pain. Since Duke is going to be a large breed dog and he has a lot of growing to do he will need a special home; one where they will be conscious of his weight. He would also benefit from some hydro- therapy post operatively. Without our financial assistance this puppy would not have gotten a second chance because the owner chose not to keep him due to the injuries. Duke will have his surgery tomorrow morning with Dr. Balaj. Prayers and financial help for his surgery and therapy is much appreciated. ~ Gina
10/24/2013 – DUKE: Duke was transported to a specialist last night by our good friend, Michelle, of A Rejoyceful Animal Rescue. The doctors want to wait until Duke’s injuries heal a little more before doing any exploratory surgery to determine what might be the next course of action with his leg. They think they can do this tomorrow. We will surely keep everyone updated. Again, prayers and positive energy are always helpful.
10/23/13Our little Dewey keeps on fighting day by day to recover from his surgery. I am so happy to report that as of this morning he was doing much better! Please remember that he is on some pretty good post op pain medication in this video. ♥♥ gina
10/24/2013 – DEWEY: Unfortunately, although Dewey is holding his own it still is not clear whether he will be able to get through this very serious operation. He is eating and drinking on his own but he can’t seem to balance himself. Please continue your prayers and positive energy for the very sweet boy.
10/23/13: Dewey would like to wish a good morning to everyone.. He is still in recovery from his major operation on Sunday night. Thank u for all your prayers. We feel good that he is doing slightly better every day.. Again, we couldn’t have saved his life without our amazing Dr. Lutz and Dr. Maria.. gina♥♥
10/22/13 UPDATES:
1) Our little puppy who was thrown out of a car is now in a wonderful foster home with other little puppies and will be found a loving home through our friends at Home Fur-Ever Rescue. We received many e-mails on this guy, now named Boston, so if anyone is interested in adopting once he is available, please go to Home Fur-Ever’s facebook page.
2) We still need furever, loving homes for our little felines, Oreo and Spooky (formerly known as Sebastian). Both little guys are very lovable and would make a wonderful family members. Check out their stories on our page and if anyone is interested, please contact Gina or me. [email protected] or [email protected].
3) Our little Dewey still needs your prayers. He is not in the clear just yet. Gina is with him tonight and will let us know how he’s doing.
