It was a busy morning today. The two recent rescue Danes and sweet tiny Becky saw Dr. Hanna at Houston Spay Neuter.
Becky: after 2 major life saving surgeries in the last 2 weeks, she only had to get her staples out. She’s doing so much better!
Bogie: He’s a youngster at barely 1 year old and 80 lbs. He’s got lots of lacerations and puncture wounds, likely from another dog due one pack mate being in heat. He’s got a body score of 4/9 - but we are working on that and he’ll be even more beautiful soon! We are working on infections and parasites and watching a leg injury that seems to be getting better.
Birdie: Stunning girl around 2 years old and 90 pounds. She will be ideal at 105-110. She has a very swollen leg. It’s possibly a venomous snake bite based on the progression of the swelling…. unfortunately we are not sure if it is a snake bite and giving anti-venom is a minimum of $4000 which would be a lot of money if it’s not an actual snake bite. We did get x-rays, however, and we’ll get those results back pretty quick.
Both Danes are healing and decompressing. Both are incredibly sweet and docile. We know that Bogey is good with dogs, cats and kids!
This is a really big undertaking that we were not expecting. If you would like to help with the care for these two gentle giants, here’s a way:

It’s incredible how many people are stepping up to help these dogs. It’s not only expensive but the time investment is enormous! MULTIPLE care visits, medication administration, just sitting with them to help them decompress. ❤️
