✨Ophelia Needs a Wheelchair✨

No one knows why Ophelia cannot walk but instead of dwelling on that we HAVE been given the “all clear” to get her moving by both her primary veterinarian and her neurologist🫶

Right now, with the help of harnesses and slings, she is building muscle and learning to balance and walk but there are only so many hours in the day we can be holding Ophelia up. She is held to walk, to play, to p**p, to check the yard when a new bird lands…she’s a puppy and we owe her that. (She would like me to add that she is standing unsupported for meals now because she’s amazing)

Her veterinary team has recommended a full support wheelchair to help her build strength and give her a place to rest while vertical to help her brain connect back to her feet standing rather than lying down as a part of her rehabilitation.

We know the are lots of homemade and less expensive options for wheelchairs but in our experience they don’t work as well and when you work with many high needs animals, efficiency is important so we want to stick with for her full support cart.

If you want to help Ophie get wheels, all the ways to do it are below👇

“We’ve Been Trying To Reach You About Your Car’s Extended Warranty” -Clover, probably.

Thank you Shelby for coming out and grooming Clover, Ori, and Pippa today. Clover appreciated you hand feeding her her medications today, she told me so 😉

Clover came to us last year with a significant injury to a hind leg that has given her a permanent limp. You guys rallied and helped us save her and Summer, another girl who was very very forgotten and in pain. Some days are better than others and while medication helps, we think a change in her environment might help too. Right now she gets daily morning turnout with alternating nights spent turned out. Clover and Ori are going to move to a property with 24-7 turnout to see if increased movement will help with her discomfort.

Fingers crossed we find this beautiful girl some relief.

The babies are growing and that means their appetites are too! We’re in need of kitten food so I will include the Amazon wishlist below! The kitten cans are what are keeping these babies heads above water every day. When they have a nutritionally poor start like they did they need all of the help they can get in the easiest way for their body to digest possible.

One day maybe I’ll write about our story together all in one place because I’ve only ever known her as a part of us.

Little Lotus gave her 3 years to live that she wouldn’t have had otherwise. She has always been the most brave girl through all of her surgeries and therapies and farrier appointments and and and. Her team fixed her legs and like magic she was free but there are only so many surgeries in the same place a body can take.

There were no more surgeriestherapiesbracesdrugsshoesiceherbslasers that could keep her here without constant pain.

She got her name because when I met her I just wanted to put her in my Pocket and tuck her away from the world. Turns out you can’t do that.

Her last morning was spent grazing and for an Arizona girl that’s pretty special. Pod was with her.

I know we made the right decision for her. Her vets did. Her farrier did. I did. But if it’s ok with you, I’de like to crawl into a deep dark hole and not come out for a while. Just until I don’t feel what this feels like anymore.

Meet Spout 🌱

Sprout is a zippy boy! He loves to run around with the foster dogs in his family and is easily the quickest. He loves when all the dog toys are reset in the basket and goes fishing for some of his favorites (antler and nylabones right now). He goes in his kennel to sleep at night and when his foster is away from the home. Sprout was nervous when he first got to his foster home but settled in after about 48 hours and now he thinks the faux fur dog bed is Better than sliced bread❤️

What started as a group of doodles running through town turned into one of the best examples of community collaboration we’ve seen in a long time.

In Huachuca City, where one Animal Control Officer covers the community, repeated calls about loose dogs quickly became a team effort. The Cochise County - Government sherrif departments ACOs stepped in to help safely catch and return the dogs home. After multiple calls, everyone realized this wasn’t just an animal issue, it was a family that needed support.

The Nancy J. Brua Animal Care Center immediately stepped up and took in five of the doodles. Two of the adults were spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and reunited with the senior caregiver they already knew and loved. The remaining three will now have the chance to find wonderful homes through their facility.

We committed to helping the owner with the other five doodles and learned there was more happening behind the scenes for their owner. Her church stepped in to help catch up her electric bill, and we contacted the gas company regarding needed repairs because no senior should face Arizona summer temps without safe utilities.

Donna at 4 Paws Grooming Salon donated grooming services for three of the dogs, removing months of matting and helping them feel comfortable in their skin again. Community volunteers jumped in to transport dogs to and from appointments when we posted for help.

Scarritt Foundation partnered with ASAVET Veterinary Charities to provide spay/neuter surgeries and vaccines for the remaining five doodles so that they could move toward healthy futures. Two volunteers met halfway to complete the 3 hour round trip drive required to get them all there.

Because so many people chose compassion over judgment, all TEN doodles are now safe, sterilized, vaccinated and moving toward brighter futures. Their caregiver chose to only keep the two dogs she felt most connected to, while the others will now have the opportunity to find loving homes through Little Lotus Rescue & Sanctuary.

This is what rescue can look like. Animal control officers, sheriff deputies, nonprofits, churches, veterinarians, businesses, and neighbors all showing up together because… It takes a village🏘️

Wildlife rescue is not generally where we help but a phone call about an owl who couldn’t fly meant that at the very least we could catch and transport them to a licensed rehabber or veterinarian who could.

This evening Annette stopped her chores to go help and when she got there it was pretty obvious what the problem was…a fledgling (Great Horned?) owl tangled in baling twine leading to him having a really hard time learning to fly. Once he was caught and the trash cut away you could see that a toe had been long broken and healed in the garbage. Through all of this, his parents stayed near and made their protest VERY audibly clear. The baby was let go (and immediately showed us how big he could be) and the home owner will keep an eye out to make sure the parents are following this wayward baby to feed him until he sorts himself out 🦉 keeping wildlife wild is usually the goal❤️

You may not be able to solve every problem but I think most people are able to help WAY more than they think.

Good luck baby bird!
