UPDATE: For those of you who have been following the story of this injured stray we were recently helping, I have very sad news… He passed away on his own during treatment today, but the staff said he went quick and peacefully.. We can be thankful for that and that he didn’t die on the streets cold, scared, and alone. He had many prayers, warmth, and he was not in pain. I’m also thankful that we happened to be in a position because of our supporters to be able to provide the quality care he received. Thank you to those who reached out and networked to get this boy help and of course the doctors and staff who worked with our group and tried to save him..

Odin – He Loves to Cuddle. His New Year Wish is a Family to Call His Own
1/4/16 – It was April 18, 2015 when a good Samaritan brought ODIN into the emergency. It appeared he had been hit by a car and was just left on the street to die. He couldn’t use his back legs. After much loving and skilled care by the staff of the Animal Urgent and Critical Care Center, Odin, totally recovered and has since been fostered by Gina. For some reason, his perfect family has not been found. Here is a photo of Odin and Odin snuggling with his foster sister, Angel. He loves to give kisses and snuggle with whomever is available. Please share and send Gina an e-mail at [email protected] if you are interested in adopting this very sweet boy. He has been neutered and is totally up to date on vaccines. ~ diana

Two German Shepherds Rescued
12/30/15 – 
Almost $130,000 paid in medical bills for 805 cats, 117 dogs, and 90 animals who were treated through the emergency hospital where Gina works. I say “almost” because as we approach the end of the year, animals are still going into veterinarians being helped. Here is a message we received the other day.Thankfully, because of you, both dogs will be seeing the doctor this week. We can’t promise we will be able to help with a hip issue or even a heart worm issue but we can commit to making sure these animals are no longer in pain, are vaccinated, will no longer be used for breeding for someone’s financial gain, and will have a safe and happy life from here on out: ~ diana
“On Christmas Eve my friend and I were on our way to deliver Xmas cookies to the homeless. We noticed while exiting the freeway two dogs running past us towards the free way. We immediately got out and were running after these dogs on the shoulder of the freeway to save them from getting hit. We put them in our car once caught and now they are at my residence. They are isolated as there is no way they are up to date on anything and looks like they were just used in someone’s backyard for breeding. The female is plump but had fleas and burrs matted in her hair. The male is in bad shape as you can feel every one in his hips and he walks with a hitch as I think he may have bad hips? He’s skinny and has burrs matted in his hair. They appear to be older like between 7-10? They are currently still in my basement in a kennel and we take them out every few hours but they need vet care. My guess is they most likely have worms and heart worms. My friend and I are willing to foster them till a rescue can take them on. It’s not ideal as we both have our own animals but we can’t see them get euthanized. Every place I’ve Called is full. It’s been almost a week now so I need a plan as to how to get these animals healthy. Can you help – Heather”
