Emmett is Adopted

Emmett

Congratulations to Emmett who found his forever home with Kevin and Priscilla in Los Angeles.  This 3-year old boy was surrendered by a family who loved him dearly, but their living situation had changed and they were no longer able to keep their boy.  

Special thanks yous go out to Kriss Harrigian, Los Angeles (Area Manager) for picking him up from his former family, our loyal partners at Culver Palms Pet Hospital, as well as Jean-Pierre and Michaela, our first-time fosters for Emmett.  Additional thanks go to Lisa, Lexi, Sue, and Laura on the placement team. 

 

Emmett is pictured with his new parents as well as the Kehoes’ 9-year old granddaughter who plans to be a big part of Emmett’s life.

If you would like to have a wonderful golden in your life such as Emmett, please look up adoption information on our website.

Winter Shamrock Update

We have a few updates on our Shamrock Circle Fund this quarter about several dogs in need of medical help or adoption. Your support is always appreciated by these beautiful golden retrievers.

Chloe

Chloe

Chloe

Chloe came in to rescue after receiving a call that she had tested positive for Parvo and needed help. We currently have done a blood test, and put her on IV fluids, antibiotics, medication to help with hernausea, and lots of constant TLC and monitoring. Chloe is definitely showing Parvo symptoms. She is not barking like she was doing, is now drooling and having some diarrhea. We are doing some more tests to see how her little body is fighting this terrible disease and also giving her medication to help with her nausea. Keep her in your thoughts as she needs all the help she can get to fight her battle. We know this is a roller coaster ride but we just hope that she is strong enough to survive.  Please keep her in your thoughts and consider giving to help fund her care.


Kopper

We rescued Kopper from a local shelter. She was found alone on a property with no ID and was brought to the shelter. This senior girl has a poor coat, is anemic, very thin, has never been spayed, and has 5 abdominal masses (1 large mass and 4 much smaller ones). The shelter thinks she is about 15 years old, but our vet thinks she is about 10.

Her energy is pretty good and she is a very sweet girl. Our vet has suggested that we take a biopsy of the large mass to make sure it's not an aggressive cancer. We do not want to put Kopper through a big surgery if she has a cancer that is going to limit her life expectancy. We'll see what the biopsy tells us. In the meantime, Kopper is boarding at our vet's office getting good food and good care. 


Randall

Randall

Our "gentle giant" has had a long road to recovery since his accident, but he has been a real trouper with just a few setbacks.  His casts are completely off now and his hip is getting stronger every day.  Randall is still on restricted activity because his front legs need a bit more time to heal, but he is completely mobile.  He has developed a tenderness in his left paw that could be from one of the implanted pins so we are working on diagnosing and treating.  It has been necessary to have Randall stay at the hospital during his recovery, but he is now ready to go to a foster or forever home.  Randall's needs are few, but significant.  Because of his traumatic and painful journey, he needs lots of love, patience and understanding.  He has bonded with so many volunteers and hospital staff but is still looking for that special someone or family to call his own.
