MAMA SURI

BREED: Lab Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Suri was a very scared mama, handling life on her own. She was found by the graveyard with her puppy Scout. Animal Control was able to first get Scout. They found 3 other puppies that had passed. One of their attempts to catch Mama ended up catching another pup, Inky. And, FINALLY, Mama and one remaining pup, Gravy, got into a Good Samaritan's car who stopped for them. Because Mama wanted to meet the pup the Good Samaritan had with her, she was able to get them and notify Animal Control. We took them under rescue. Mama and 3 puppies are now safe.
NEEDS: Suri finished nursing her babies and her little ones have found loving homes. Now Suri needs a loving home to show her a safe life that's not on the streets.
HEALTH ISSUES: She is in good health and is ready for stability, security, and love.

Meet Tara!
TARA
AGE: Approximately 13 years old
​
BREED: Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Tara is a super sweet senior who is just looking for someone to give her the love she so deserves. Her favorite activity is napping in cozy spots around the house, especially on the couch next to her person (sometimes with a little help getting up there). She also loves being outside rolling in the grass, relaxing in the sunshine, and watching the world go by.
​
Her foster, Emily Meier, understood that Tara needed surgery to remove her mass and STILL said, "I'll take her!" Emily is Tara's Angel.
​​​​​​​
NEEDS: She's getting lotsa love, couch time and companionship from her foster and her furry foster siblings! Emily, thank you AGAIN!!! You are a blessing for these senior pups!
​
Tara still gets a little pep in her step for short walks and gets excited as soon as she sees her leash. Tara loves belly rubs and booty scratches, knows sit and shake, and will happily offer her paw if you have a treat in hand. She’s very friendly and always happy to say hello.
​
Tara is house-trained, doesn’t need a crate, and gets along well with other calm dogs—she enjoys cuddling with them but prefers not to play. Her ideal home would be a lower-energy environment with few stairs and a fenced yard where she can relax outside.
​
Tara deserves all the love for her golden years and will give so much love in return.
HEALTH ISSUES: Thankfully she is heartworm negative! She went through surgery to remove a large mass amazingly well! Tara is definitely resilient and a fighter! Her tumor was successfully removed. The good news is that her chest X-ray was clear. We're hoping we get good news from Pathology, as well. For now, she's recuperating quite well with her loving foster and foster furry siblings! Tara thanks you and we'll keep you posted!
