Ryker is on the mend update!

After being attacked about 2 weeks ago by two large dog’s, Ryker was laying on the grass lifeless and helpless.. The homeowner didn’t know what to do because this was a stray that wound up on his property. He couldn’t watch Ryker die there, so he called for help and “4 paws 1 heart” stepped in to give Ryker a second chance, but he needed major emergency surgery asap to put his organs back where they were supposed to be. Then he needed another surgery because his back leg was broken in half. Due to the infection we had to amputate. Today he is doing wonderful and healing day by day…
Ryker has a lot of stitches and staples but he is alive, and he will make a very loving member of the family for someone out there… It’s taking him a little adjusting to the three legs, but his name means “Strength” and he is living up to it. We all love him and are looking forward to finding him a forever home

Forever Home needed for Sweet Jane – Can you open your heart & home?

You may remember Jane?? It was Jane’s very sad story that was the catalyst for our friendship with Mutts of Motown and I think the first time we helped them with medical bills. Although 4p1h has many of our own medical bills right now, we will always help our rescue partners who help us in placing animals for whom we provide medical treatment. Jane has a special place in my heart. And, although she doesn’t require the medical help we just provided for the dogs rescues by Mutts of Motown, I wanted to take this opportunity to once again share her story. Please share and let’s find this very sweet girl her forever home. Here’s her story. ~ diana

“Jane has been in rescue a year and a half. She was stray and living with a pack inside an empty house in Detroit. A well meaning neighbor was feeding them all. One day the entire pack turned on her and attacked her. We were called and when we arrived poor Jane was bleeding out indide the house. The snow outside was blood red and she was transported to safety. She was treated for her hundreds of puncture wounds and it was discovered she had heartworm too. We saw her through all of it with the help of our vet and our supporters. She’s one of our best behaved dogs. She’s understandably nervous around other dogs. She must be the only dog, she has a fenced yard requirement, and older kids are fine. She walks great on leash and is perfectly housetrained. Please inquire about Jane by calling (586)690-2808

Happy Helena!

Remember our baby, Helena? She was rescued from a junkyard and required the removal of her eye. We didn’t know if she would survive because of her severe infection but with much love and care from our friend, Nicole Norton, she is healthy and now much loved. I love the fact that we are able to make a difference in the lives of so many but could never do it without the support of our friends. Look at our girl Helena She hit the jackpot, all snuggled up with her new mom. ~ diana
Helena now all cozied up on her Mama

Ryker Update

Update on Ryker. He had surgery this afternoon and he is resting comfortably tonight. Unfortunately, we couldn’t save his leg because of the damage from the bite wounds BUT he is on the road to recovery. Ryker is eating well tonight and we are keeping him on pain medication/antibiotics around the clock. He is a little lover and I just adore him. Our doctors are amazing! Huge thank you to Dr. Rivera and Dr. Pillsbury for doing this procedure and helping us give Ryker a chance of survival!! If you would like to donate towards the cost of medical care for him or any of the other cases we currently have, please see our donation page on our website www.4paws1heart/donations.org    Thank you, Gina
