Story

Tori is being fostered in Florida. Tori is a very laid back 10# girl who is quiet and rarely barks. She loves to be outside with her nose facing the breeze and catching the scents in the air. She lives as an only dog - but is very tolerant of the other dogs in our building. The cat in the family is not fond of Tori but Tori does not mind the cat. Tori has a favorite green blanket where she naps and sleeps at night (and is a loud snorer!). She likes frequent walks on leash and is house trained. She enjoys being on your lap or next to you while you are watching tv. Little is known about Tori’s past except that she was taken from her elderly owner who could no longer care for her. Pictures here show her ungroomed condition when she entered the shelter and after being groomed. Tori’s right eye had been removed at some time in the past and she has no vision in her left eye. Pressure in that eye is normal and her medical vet noted a dilated pupil and asteroid hyalosis. She has an appointment to see an opthamologist next month. She often scratches the right side of her face but no reason has been found for this. Tori does not drink from her water bowl but does drink water added to her kibble and gets four small meals a day. On arrival at her foster home in Florida, Tori was treated for worms including tapeworms. This probably contributed to her anemia and she is on lixotinic for that. She had a 4DX test and it was all negative including heartworms. A dental cleaning has been done and four teeth were removed. A benign lesion was removed from her left thigh at that time also. Tori gets very anxious with car rides, but her vet has ordered Trazodone to help her with this. Due to her size a home without young children is recommended. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story

Lotus is being fostered in PA. Lotus is a sweet, slightly timid but gentle petite and spry little girl who has a beautiful light gray with dark gray soft coat of fur. She has dry eye and significant ear infections that are still being treated in her foster home. She will need drops for her eyes but the over the counter drops are working well for her eyes right now. She will be having dental surgery on September 11th and the veterinarian will decide then if she needs any procedures done to her ears to open the canals at that time. They are very painful right now and it is impossible to get a good look deep inside. An update will be posted after her surgery on the 11th. She lives with several other smaller dogs, one larger dog and two cats and does very well with all of them. She is indifferent with them all and just wants to be where her foster mom is. She is very good with her house manners and has learned to follow her foster mom to the door to go outside and can find her way around the fenced yard and back up onto the porch. She does not tolerate being in a crate or confined area and will bark constantly. She does wonderfully when she has free roam of the house during the day when her mom is at work. She will beg to get onto her foster mom's lap during tv time at night and nuzzles in quickly to nap. Aside from being just a tiny bit skittish, she is a perfect little girl with a sweet personality. Lotus may need eye drops for the duration and we are not yet sure about her ears although they are improving nicely. After years of chronic and untreated infections, it's not a surprise that it may take some time to get her ears back to healthy but her hearing may not improve. She does have issues hearing but she can hear some, and the same can be said about her vision, although she seems to see better than she hears. She has slight cataracts and some of the vision problems could be caused from chronic and untreated dry eye. It needs to be said that she is very stubborn when it comes to getting her eye drops and ear meds in at this time. We are hopeful that as the discomfort in her ears improves and she learns to associate positives (treats given) before and after administration of her meds, that she will learn to be more calm during her medicine time of day. She does not bite but is a huge wiggle worm and can pull out of any trick or grip her foster mom has tried. She is a joy to have as a foster dog and adjusted quickly to her foster home. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story

Presley is a 9 year old neutered male shih tzu who weighs 12 pounds. These dogs were rescued as part of a humane case, where they have never lived in a home before and most of them needed to be fully shaved. Despite everything, these dogs are happy, sweet, dog friendly and will make wonderful family additions. These pups are crate trained, use their doggie door and are thriving since being rescued. Do you have room in your home for a dog that deserves to be spoiled rotten?

Story

Hello, my name is: TaterDOB: 12/28/2022Sex/Breed: Neutered male Shih Tzu Weight: 26 lbs (but could stand to lose a few)Friends: Adults, dogs, cats (kids unknown)Traits: Playful, shy, curious, amiableRescued from: Breeding kennelFortunately for Tater, he exceeded the size the breeders desired, leading them to choose to surrender him to rescue rather than utilize him as a stud. Faced with a whole new way of life, this sweet boy is a little overwhelmed, but he is coming around nicely. Tater is still shy, but in a short time has started showing interest in play. He is a young dog, and we feel he'll blossom quickly with a patience. He has already started to show his playful side! Tater is still unsure about living in a house and being walked on leash. He gets along with other dogs and cats and wouldn't mind having a furry friend to learn from. In a quieter environment we have no doubt he'll come out of his shell and grow into the confident dog he is destined to be!Help us continue to step up for dogs like Tater and consider donating towards their medical care: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/all-4-paws-rescueAll our dogs are microchipped, spayed/neutered, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives.Interested in adopting?
