Successful Adoptions
Shall we have some good news?
Walther (left) has been in our care since September 2022. He came to us from a shelter partner.
He came to them with a gunshot wound in his front shoulder, a mangled rear leg, and heartworms.
First, Dr. Davis at Monroe Road Animal Hospital removed the bullet. Then we learned that his leg issues were inoperable so Dr. Hendren at Commonwealth Animal Hospital amputated his leg...and gave him a snippy while he was under! Finally, Dr. Sage treated him for heartworms.
And after alllllllll that...he was adopted!
Walt is the happiest boy. He wags his tail constantly and gives amazing Pyr hugs. Coleen, Joe, and Beau loved him at first sight just as we did!

Longtime friends of the rescue Ed and Betty brought #CGPRAlum Bella (right) back to pick a buddy. They fell for handsome Gerry!

Janine and Chuck submitted the kind of application to meet the Pyrs that makes our hearts sing. They wrote, "We don`t care the sex or what they look like, medical issues, we just would like to provide a home for another baby that could eat, sleep, play and live with Abbie and Apollo [their two current Pyrs]."
Janine, Chuck, Abbie, and Apollo picked Greta, the darling older adult who came to us with enormous mammary tumors from a backyard breeder who didn`t provide even basic veterinary care to Greta while she had litter after litter. Greta had surgery for those tumors and a full hysterectomy while with us.
Greta is settling in beautifully and has even gone to work with Janine.
On the worst days of rescue--like yesterday when we turned down 7 owner surrenders for lack of space--it makes us so happy to know that life has totally changed for the dogs we can help. Greta has gone from the worst to the best possible life, and we couldn`t be happier!

We often have things going on that we can`t share publicly...yet.
Now we can tell you about Elsa and show off her glow up!
She came to us in 2022 from a shelter partner. She was there as a result of an animal cruelty case. Elsa had an embedded collar (meaning her too-tight collar had cut into her flesh) and suffered from overall neglect. She also was positive for heartworms.
The shelter was able to release her to us for care, but because the criminal investigation was ongoing, we couldn`t post about her. No criminal charges were filed against the owner, but Elsa did become ours to rehome.
Well, lots of TLC, heartworm treatment, and nourishment later...Elsa has gone to her furever home with Jessica and Jason, who met her and fell head over heels for this spunky, sweet girl when they came to meet the Pyrs.
We are so glad that Elsa gets to live her happily-ever-after like the princess she is!

Let`s end the work week with good news!
One of the wonderful things about being ancient in rescue years (31 years now) is that many adopters come back to us for another Pyr. And then an additional Pyr. And one more after that. π€£π€£π€£
For years, Stacy and Otto shared their home with #CGPRAlum Tessa. After she passed away, they decided to welcome another Pyr into their pack of five dogs.
Instead of one, they picked Honey and Daisy, our sweet sisters, and left with two!
