Charlie ChapoAge: 8 years old
Breed: American Bully Mix Weight: 54 pounds Sex: Male (N) Adoption Fee: $325 Learn More
Charlie was suffering from a blocked urethra and painful bladder stones, and his owner faced the difficult decision to euthanize him or surrender him. The amazing staff at @MedVet Emergency Clinic contacted us so he could get the lifesaving care he needed. We immediately stepped in. Thanks to our incredible vet team, Charlie was unblocked, had his bladder stones removed, and also underwent NARES surgery and a soft palate resection so he can finally breathe easier. He was also treated for double ear infections and allergies. If you're looking for a super chill, oversized lapdog that loves cuddles, Charlie is your boy! He is adorable, loves all people, and is great with dogs of all sizes. He patiently puts up with his 15lb three-legged puppy foster sister and has made doggy friends everywhere he goes. He is super affectionate and loving. He is just an easy-going dude that likes to eat, play, chew toys, and then take long naps. He is a hilarious, big-bulldozer-of-a dog who unintentionally rearranges furniture and snores like a grown man. We have a ramp set up so he can walk up to the couch, and he would happily spend all of his time with his head or most of his body on you while you relax and binge-watch your favorite shows. He is the definition of a couch potato. Charlie is an absolute big hunk of love! He has been shuffled around too many times in his life through no fault of his own, and he absolutely deserves a loving home to comfortably live out his golden years.

Baxter is a sweet senior boy who joined our rescue after his family of 11 years moved out of the country. At just 4.5 pounds, he is a tiny little guy with a big personality. He is adjusting to his new life and would love nothing more than to spend his golden years with a family to call his own. Baxter is a bit hot and spicy and is not shy about letting you know if you are misbehaving. Since he has no teeth, his “corrections” are all gums, loud sounds, and a little slobber. He is a fun, silly little guy. He often forgets where he is going or gets easily distracted Energy Level? Low. Couch Potato House trained? Mostly. However, we have used belly bands to discourage marking and it is working! He is also getting used to using potty pads. He needs encouragement to go potty outside. Describe how they are on a leash?

He doesn’t appreciate other animals crowding around him while he is eating. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? He’s fine left alone. We leave him in a pen when he is alone. He does not potty in his pen. The longest he has been left alone is approximately 4-6 hours. Where do they sleep? He sleeps in his bed in a pen. He would also love sleeping with his people What is their ideal home? Baxter would do best with someone who appreciates his spicy little personality. With new people or if he feels someone is fussing with him too much, he may growl or give a gummy snap warning. Remember, he has no teeth, so it is mostly sounds and slobber. He would be happy in a home with or without other dogs. Baxter is a simple guy who enjoys the easy life. Give him a fluffy bed, good food, and a calm home, and he will be perfectly content. He is such a special little guy. |

LilyADOPTED
Age: 7 years old Breed: Papillion/Terrier Mix Weight: 14 pounds Sex: (S) Female Adoption Fee: $325 Learn More
Lily is the sweetest girl, and her story broke our hearts. Just two days before Christmas, Lily was surrendered to the shelter by her owner’s next of kin after her original owner passed away. While at the shelter, staff noticed her crooked jaw, and x-rays confirmed she had been living with a painful fractured jaw. We rescued Lily as soon as we learned about her condition. Because of the severity of the injury, we took her to UC Davis, where specialists determined she would need corrective surgery and a plate placed to repair the fracture. In preparation for surgery, six of Lily’s teeth were extracted. Her surgery is scheduled for February 18th. Despite everything she has endured, Lily’s spirit shines. She is gentle and loving with everyone she meets, and she adores dogs and even goats. She is an absolute trooper and deserves a life free from pain. Please keep Lily in your prayers as she prepares for surgery. If you are able to donate, please consider helping us continue our mission and give Lily the care she so deeply deserves. Lily’s journey is not over yet, but she is finally on the path to healing. |
