More on Clarisse

 

Clarisse is doing very well!
She had clear blood and stool tests and has a very healthy appetite!
Her eye is doing much better with drops and her curiosity about her new
world is emerging!
She loves my dogs and darts around here and there checking things out.
Yesterday, she escaped the x-pen and this morning, as I was upstairs
blow drying my hair, I though I saw her behind me...turns out she had
come in through the doggie door and come upstairs!
This girl was hiding 2 days ago!
All good signs.
She still does NOT want to be touched but if I ignore her, she will stay
near me.
I am just so so glad we found her.
Here is a picture of her last night surveying the backyard.

Happy Freedomversary Breezy

Congratulations to Breezy, who was  a "failed foster" diabetic with mast cell tumors Padi Hallam Joseph  adopted last year. Padi writes, “We're coming up on her "Freedomversary,"  July 4th, which is about one year from when we picked her up!”

New Foster, Jax

Welcome new foster Jax! He is 9 years old. Updates to come!

Animal Rights

Let no one be discouraged by the belief there is nothing one person can do against the enormous array of the world's ills, misery, ignorance, and violence. Few will have the greatness to bend history, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events. And in the total of all those acts will be written the history of a generation. - Robert F. Kennedy —

New Foster, Spike

            

Just some info on Spike..

"I had to surrender him (sadly) because I had taken him from my father (he has lung cancer and couldn't keep him) and I wasn't home enough to really give him the personal attention he so badly needed. My other dogs were not very happy with his upbeat personality and we didn't have a fenced yard (Spike likes to run and we live near a busy road.) He is a lover, good with kids and other pets. Very Sweet boy. I am so glad I found this rescue to give him the kind of happy life he so deserves. He looks wonderful! Thank You NEBTR"

Thank you, Rachel, for having the wisdom to surrender him to NEBTR when you realized he needed more attention than you were able to give. And special thanks to Chris Cassner for being the foster Mom to this cutie!

Chris noted, "Jerrilyn emailed me today asking if I could go into the mountains to get
a Boston named Spike. Like I'm gonna say "no" to THE best Boston
tracker there is! lol"

Clarisse’s Second Day

Clarisse on her first night – very scared and frightened.



Second day:  Clarisse also found a new sleeping spot outside of her cage.


Clarisse has decided to get up and explore a little bit....

 

I agree with you Victoria..something did guide me. When I was at work, I just knew I could find her if I went and looked. I nearly broke down when I finally spotted her.

She is just back from the vet. They hydrated her and gave me meds for her infected eye.

She is on the road to recovery.
Jerrilyn Walter

 

Jerrilyn,
Thanks so  much for the updates.  We all are so concerned about this precious girl, and
the condition you found her in.  This  news is so inspiring and you saved this girls life. There
needs to be more people in the world like you.  You may think that what you did
is no big deal,  but it is a HUGE deal for Clarisse.  Please keep the pictures coming,
You will have great great karma.

Can't help but to fall in love with this sleeping beauty. So glad to hear she came out of her crate. I bet a nap on a nice bed or couch is something she can't take for granted. I can only imagine how nice that felt for her

Thanks,

Erica Eshelman

 

She looks so peaceful. I bet it has been a long time since
she had something soft and warm to sleep on.
Thank you so much Jerrilyn.

July 4 Pet Precautions

Enjoy July Fourth?

More on Patsy

 

 

I picked up Patsy on 6/15.  She was emaciated and had extremely dry skin.  Patsy is 14 1/2 years old.  Her former owner passed away last November and she was forced to remain in the home without any human contact for the past 6 months.  She remained on her own....lonely and most likely mourning the loss of her owner.

Miss Patsy was attacked by two pitbulls in her own back yard this past May.  I don't know how she survived!!!  She has a strong will to live and she now deserves the best life possible!!!

During the first four days, she was in a lot of gastric pain. She is now pain free, well rested, well fed, and is showing a playful side of her.

Bless the seniors...they are not throw away dogs!!!!

Patti Maddamma

 

Thank you so much for taking her in, Patti. It takes a special kind of person to do this.   Bless you Patti, for taking this girl in and showing her love.We have a real soft spot for the senior dogs. Although we can't fix the past, we can control the future and hers is definitely looking up and will be much brighter.

Another Miracle Save

Yesterday a Brooklyn couple found a blind, very old and disoriented BT roaming around Bayridge. 

 They brought him to a local vet and paid or him to be examined and re-hydrated. They couldn't keep the guy; they have a difficult German Shepard at home. The vet said their only option was Animal Care & Control and added that a dog that old would never get adopted, that the other choice would be to wait a few days and put him down.

The couple was despondent and it a difficult situation. They miraculously found NEBTR and Jerrilyn Walter and Sheryl Trent sprang into action (as they always do!). They contacted me (a NEBTR volunteer) and I took him in. Poor guy was bumping into walls, very confused.

I posted on Craigslist, ACC, FB and a couple of other local missing dog organizations and... Drum roll.... At 1 am I heard from "Edgar # 39's" owners. They were crying tears of joy when they got him. They'd had him since he was 6 Wks and he's now 14!!! They promised to microchip him TODAY (I will be following up with that!). I also told them about NEBTR so I hope they will express their thanks in toward our little group.

So many sad stories, its always nice to have a happy ending! Takes a lot of people to get a dog to the right home. Thanks NEBTR!

-- Rebecca Bazell

Many thanks to Rebecca Bazell, Sheryl Trent and Jerrilyn Walter: good karma earned for all of you, you made it happen. So awesome. Two amazing stories in one week!  Bless you Rebecca for taking him in.  So glad he his home with  his family.  Poor baby must have been scared to death!  And Sheryl and Jerrilyn, once again, thank you for all you do!
