Happy Gotcha Day, Lucy Lou!
Lucy Lou ended up at the county shelter with three babies. She was Heartworm positive and had a cyst on her leg that needed to be removed.
Her babies were soon adopted and we were asked to help scared little Lucy.
Lucy needed time to trust people. She eventually let her walls down and started to relax. She also became best friends with Lexi, another Plp alum!
Her foster family decided they didn’t want her to have start all over again as she was so timid so she permanently joined the family last week.
Congrats Lucy Lou! You will never be alone, living outside, or have babies again.
Enjoy your new life where you will always be safe, warm and loved!
Thanks Maria and family for fostering and adopting.
Congratulations to Lexi who is now permanently home with her foster family.
Lexi came to us in November after we received an email asking if we could take a small dog who had been found several weeks earlier. No owner was found but she needed vet care that was not in the finder’s budget so she reached out to us.
After Lexi’s vetting, she had really settled in with her foster family and had come out of her shell.
She even started playing with the other small dogs in the home.
Congratulations Maria, Lexi, and family!
Have a wonderful life together!
Thank you for adopting!!
Special Announcement!!
I always say, "Every dog has a home, we just have to find it."
Ladies and Gentleman, LEMON DROP has found her place in the world after eighteen months in foster care.
Back in September of 2021, we pulled a dog from the "Last Call" List at the county shelter. A sweet, shy, older hound who was not in good shape. Now if you know anything about rescue, you know dumped and discarded Hounds in the South are a common thing, sadly.
Lemon Drop immediately went to the vet. She was thin, had heartworms, masses, and wasn't spayed to name a few things. She had been picked up as stray out in Galivants Ferry. (rural area inland from Conway and the Beach.)
She had a mass on her knee joint that had to be removed. It was very intricate and our vet said after the surgery he didn't know if she would use the leg. Lemon proved him wrong and came walking out after surgery to her foster mom. We treated the Heartworms and all other health issues and she turned into a beautiful senior girl.
Lemon wasn't used to living indoors, so being outside was her thing. She would stay in the yard for hours and her foster mom had to actually carry her in at times. She soon found her place though and settled in, as we searched for a forever home.
About a week or so ago, a former adopter messaged me about Lemon Drop as many former adopters had in the past. She was interested in adopting Lemon Drop and wanted to know more details. We chatted and she filled out the application and talked to her significant other.
Today, we took our sweet Hound to her new home, now named the House of Hounds! lol
Lemon Drop joined former PLP hound, Minnie who had been adopted and returned a few years ago and who was also in foster care for some time.
We are so blessed to find the perfect home and family for our gentle girl. She has a nice yard, big fence and a mom who works from home and 3 other hounds, Minnie, Daisy, and Murphy (who was instantly in love with her)
We are so grateful for Susanne and Billy for giving Lemon Drop the home she deserves.
thanks so much Kandis and Keith for fostering all this time and never giving up on her.
Have a wonderful rest of your life girl!! You deserve the BEST!
Happy Gotcha Day Lili!
Lili was an owner surrender senior who came to us at the end of September. She was a bit grumpy as she needed a dental and many extractions, plus had a pretty bad uti according to our vet, but we got her all fixed up and in a few weeks she was a happy, healthy girl!
There was lots of interest in this little sassy girl but we think we found the perfect home for our diva.) (It was definitely not easy)
Lili will be the one and only in her new home and she and her new mom are already snuggle buddies and best buds.
Happy life Lili and mom!
Thank you for adopting and not shopping.
Thank you Megan and Carole for your help.
Happy Gotcha Day Louie (Vuitton) who has found his forever family! ð
Louie was one of four puppies we rescued from a rural area. We completely vetted them while their foster moms did a great job socializing them and teaching them how to “dog”’ They had been born to a stray mama and had little human interaction before coming to us.
Louie joined his new family and new canine brother Oscar over the weekend and they are so happy to have him!
Thank you Michelle for fostering and new family for adopting!
Have a great life Louie! We love you!
