Story
Katie came to rescue with blood in her urine and a whole lot of unknowns… and what we found could have broken her story before it even began. She had a very rare bladder tumor. And then she did the bravest thing of all - she beat it. ✨ The tumor was completely removed by specialty surgeons ✨ Pathology showed it was slow-growing ✨ She does NOT have aggressive bladder cancer ✨ She is now healed, happy, and living her best life Katie also has a mild, early heart condition that’s beautifully managed with a simple daily medication - and she’s had zero fainting episodes since starting treatment. Today, Katie is: 🐾 Urinating normally 🐾 Pain free 🐾 Playful, affectionate & loving 🐾 Ready for her forever home She just needs: • Daily heart meds • A low-sodium dog food • Routine vet care • And someone who believes in second chances as much as she does Katie isn’t a “medical dog.” She is a miracle dog with a beautiful future ahead. Could that future be with you? 🧡

Story
Petunia is around 3 years old. She came from TX to a shelter in Portland, Oregon, where my son adopted her. He lives in a very busy area, a lot of foot traffic. Petunia has anxiety - she is scared of strangers, cars, outside noises (when she is outside) so taking her for walks was/is a challenge. In Portland, she enjoyed visits to dog parks and played well with other dogs. She came to me in October 2024 as both my son and I thought she would thrive in a suburban setting with a back yard to alleviate her anxiety on walks. She has a congenital condition where lymphatic fluid pools in her right front leg. This is stable. As she gets to know you, she becomes affectionate. She waits on the bed to get under the covers with you, she will rest her chin on your knee to let you know she wants to go out. She loves to fetch, but doesn't always bring it back. She is vigilant and spends hours watching the world. She needs to be the only pet in the house.
