Whew, busy week. Several pups desperate for help got lucky this week.
Donations are badly needed for them!
The PAYPAL link for this adorable little lhasa/poodle boy is HERE.
Little Mr. Snowflake will soon be a yankee and a resident of New York!
Little Freedom Barker was adopted today and will have a sister, Sophie. Freedom and Sophie hit it off right away and seem like they will be happy siblings together in no time.
Thanks to all of you for allowing us to help this little dog!
Yes, this was a HUGE weekend for four little baby puppies that almost didn’t come into the world.
If you missed it, we pulled Melody (mommy dog) from BARC literally two hours before she started whelping four gorgeous little babies.
This weekend, all four were pre-adopted, which means they have forever homes just waiting for their vetting to be complete. They should get to move home in about six weeks, after they are all spayed and neutered.
After the meet and great, the family that adopted Rudolph decided they also wanted Chestnut, so the boys will be brothers forever!!
YAY!
We’ve taken in a lot of senior babies lately. We love the seniors, but do not want to put them in boarding. We desperately need adoptive and foster homes for each of these pupsters. If you can open your heart to take one of these in for the rest of their lives, please email harriet@shihtzu-rescue.com!
Reggie Barker – gorgeous nine year old tzu.
Klondyke Turner – 13 year old being turned in because her mom is going through chemotheraphy.
Jolly Kaplan – 10 year old gentleman from Louisiana.
Gorgeous Daisy May Montgomery – sweet 10 year old, very chubby, lhasa girl.
Please consider taking one of these no-trouble-at-all seniors into your home.
Email harriet@shihtzu-rescue.com if you can foster or if you want to adopt.

Waiting anxiously to hear the status on little Miss Joy Harris this morning. If you didn’t get the messages this weekend, let me catch you up..
Joy came to us a few weeks ago from Harris County Animal Control. She is a little lhasa mix who was reported to have a ‘hurt paw.” When we got her, we determined very quickly, that her leg was very broken. An x-ray confirmed that.
We took her immediately to GCVS for the amazing Dr. Beale to fix. We had to rush it because the break was fresh and we wanted the best chance to fix her correctly. The surgery was very successful!
Last week, Joy had a little stroke. Initially, it wasn’t a huge concern, but she didn’t recover as quickly as we expected.
We took her back to our vet on Friday and he decided that something very serious was going on and referred us to the neurologist at GCVS.
We did an MRI Friday and found “something” on her brain stem. The thought was that it was either a tumor, which is bad news, or an infection which might be treatable.
Right now, our bill there is likely to be around $2500-$3000. We’ve so far raised $525. If you can help at all, please consider helping little Joy.
Folks, we desperately need to keep her hosptialized until we know something. Please consider helping this sweet little dog!
Yes, when we saw this picture
and heard that an owner just dropped of this very pretty 10 year old girl, our hearts broke!
So, even though we are PACKED to the gills, we went and got her today.
Say hello to pretty little Daisy May Montgomery! Ok, she’s not to little, but she is gorgeous!
Miss Daisy will be on a diet for a while. She weighs a whopping 31 pounds. Probably should weigh 16 max.
She will soon be looking for a home, folks. You can apply at www.shihtzu-rescue.com!
