I had some seizures out of the blue on Christmas Eve and got rushed to emergency, where I got a spinal tap, I was SO brave! Even though I lost the use of my legs when the seizures happened, it turned out that was only temporary. I was walking fine by Christmas morning! The spinal tap showed no infection in my brain, yay! My foster family was so relieved! 

I've made two neurologist friends since the New Year and gotten all kinds of attention! My foster family was able to make a video of me right after I had another short seizure, and they showed it to my care team. Based on that plus my overall history (healthy! wiggly!), I started a trial of some anti-seizure medicine because I most likely have epilepsy. I'm overjoyed to update that I haven't had any more episodes since I started taking the medicine. I have more energy (check me out as boat Captain!) and even learned to play fetch! 

I'm so grateful to have the love and support of my awesome foster family and all of you! It'd be pretty lonely without people who care about me and want to help me have a great life. Promise you'll never give up on smiling, even when times are hard. There's always a way to be transformed — just look at me! 

Love,

Sandy

Sandy is an 8-year-old sweetie who first came to our attention when her owner reported she had little appetite and was itchy. Sandy received treatment for her skin infection, which was caused by yeast. Labor Day weekend was rough for Sandy, as she grew feverish, once again was not eating, and had bloody discharge coming from her nether regions. Sandy went to the ER, and it turned out that visit was lifesaving. Sandy had a terrible infection in her uterus and required emergency spay surgery.

Meet Wog Wog! Woggie’s owner initially contacted us for help finding a home for her puppies, which we did, and as we gained his trust he agreed to have her spayed. She came through her surgery with flying colors!

Ace of Hearts was loaded into our vehicle on a piece of cardboard provided by his former owner because he was too weak to stand. Despite significant blood loss and shock, Ace was stabilized and healed from the wounds another dog on the premises inflicted. Adopted!
