Many Better Days dogs have arrived suffering with daunting medical conditions. Phoenix Animal Care Coalition (PACC911)’s Critical Care Program has been there for us and for the dogs in the gravest of emergencies!

We received a call about a little Cocker Spaniel who had been dumped in the road in a rural location after having birthed many litters of puppies. Winter was depleted and exhausted; she crept beneath furniture at her finder’s home where she slept quietly. Painful, untreated glaucoma in her left eye and her sad nutritional state were heartbreaking. Much of her fur had broken off or fallen out. PACC911 came to our aid and, although Winter’s severely damaged eye could not be saved, she was much more comfortable without it — full of joy, and the light of her new family!

We are so thankful for and their support of rescues that save Arizona animals in need. This fall, you can champion the cause by supporting PACC911’s exciting Glimmer of Hope Toyota Raffle! Every raffle ticket purchased helps fund their Critical Care Program, which provides lifesaving medical treatment for abused, neglected, and injured animals across Arizona.

Ollie is following in Ziggy’s footsteps, he is 100% sweet and is growing into a handsome dog who is a wonderful companion. His fur is SO SOFT and he loves to be hugged.

Ollie has learned lovely leash- and play manners, and only occasionally forgets himself and jumps up. He’s light on his feet and very gentle, not rough; has probably reached his mature size at about 55 lbs but seems lighter (is willowy not bulky and is really the perfect sized dog).

Ollie loves people, toys, snacks, and other dogs. He is an enthusiastic player but not rough. He is interested in everyone and everything, and does not have a mean bone in his body… he is ALL LOVE! Please share Ollie to help him find his loving new family.

She doesn't care for wild young dogs, and doesn't mind mature, polite dogs. You'll find her entire bio on the "Adopt" page of our website https://betterdaysrescue.org

Life on the streets made handsome Danny Boy very uncomfortable and very ill. And then, he ended up in the county shelter. Starvation, bacterial and fungal infections, and autoimmune disease presented a complex case requiring massive veterinary intervention. Phoenix Animal Care Coalition (PACC911)'s Critical Care Program played no small part in getting Danny Boy healthy enough to truly heal.

We joke that Danny Boy chose his amazing foster parents (who became his adopters) because he wanted to hike the Sierras and experience the backcountry. 😄 Danny Boy is living the dream, and our hearts are full as we watch his life unfold.

Smart, funny, super-friendly Veronica is going on outings and overnights! What volunteers say about Veronica:

"Let me tell you, this girl is the best!"

"Does great in the car and loves potty-breaks, she is potty-trained!"

"Enjoys playing fetch with toys in the living room."

"Didn't destroy or tear up anything. Loves to settle down and be a couch potato!"

"Enjoys the sounds of old Disney movies, likes to nap on the couch by your feet."

"Walks great on harness, doesn't have a prey drive while at the park."

When Peaches arrived, we weren’t sure how to help her adjust to all the new things — new people, new sights and sounds, a daily routine. We soon found out that she likes snacks, and that she develops big attachments to kind people and funloving dogs! While she is still initially a bit shy, Peaches has come a very long way. She is a hearty player and full of joy! Please share her profile at betterdaysrescue.org to help her find her new family!

Several years ago, we rescued a small Border Collie from a busy rural shelter. Athena was diagnosed with a serious heart defect, and we were able to help her immediately, thanks in part to support from PACC911’s Critical Care Program. ❤️ Athena underwent major surgery to correct the defect, and her fantastic foster parents decided that she needed to remain part of their family!
