Thaya – Microchipping Works! Thaya is Reunited.
2/2/15 – 
Excellent News Tonight. Thaya has been reunited with her owners!!
Thaya was found outside early November, some kind people were feeding her. The days were getting colder. 4 Paws 1 Heart was contacted and paid for her medical expenses. Thaya then went to a foster home. What we have learned is that it is not common practice for a veterinarian to check for a microchip. Today she needed to see another veterinarian, this vet did mention a microchip. The foster contacted the microchip company and within hours Thaya (Pixie) was reunited with the family she loved. 4 Paws1 Heart also educated the owners that indoor cats are safer. We are thrilled that Pixie is back home!! ~ Cynthia
WATSON – Found in Below Zero Temperatures
2/2/15 – An update about our handsome Beagle from our great friends at NBS Animal Rescue. ~ diana
Please help us welcome Watson to NBS Animal Rescue!
Sweet man Watson is a 7-8 year old Beagle that was found by the kind police officers of Warren Police Department huddled up behind a dumpster trying to stay warm. This poor guy was all skin and bones as they picked him up and decided to help him instead of turn and look the other way. They contacted the wonderful folks at 4 Paws 1 Heart and he was immediately hospitalized as they could not even get a reading on the thermometer for his temperature. They lovingly nursed this guy back from the brink of death.
Watson is a strong pup, fighting back and wanting to live. He is thriving in his foster home…loving other dogs, babies, sniffing cats and having access to all the food he wants! He is methodically putting weight on and working on potty training skills. He is mellow, loves to curl up in his dog bed and go for walks. He even enjoys going to the groomer for warm spa baths! Even though it is pretty obvious that he is not used to people being nice to him, he melts with happiness under the hands of a loving touch. It goes to show the resilience and forgiveness that our four-legged friends truly have.
Welcome to the good life Mr. Watson! We love you!

We still have him on IV antibiotics and fluids along with nebulizing treatments. Your prayers seem to be helping, so keep paws crossed. Huge thanks to the saviors this weekend at the “Animal Urgent and critical care center” ER! ♡♡♡♡ Thank you, Gina

IZZY – One Day at a Time
1/31/15 – 
Izzy is still very sick.. The biggest problem right now is there are several ulcers inside of his mouth and on his tongue making it nearly impossible to swallow food. We may need to have a feeding tube placed. The animal urgent care staff is working hard to keep his drainage clean and medicate him throughout the day and night. Paws Crossed! ♡ gina
