Ribbet’s Story and Journey to Recovery

We are sharing this story for two reasons. First, we hope you’ll join us in supporting an innocent puppy, named Ribbet, on his long road to recovery. Second, we want to raise awareness of why shelters and rescues put essential safeguards in place to prevent tragedies and to highlight the risks of giving pets away without screening or proper introductions to other pets in the home.

A few weeks ago, a family adopted Ribbet, a tiny, two-month-old Labrador Retriever puppy, from Second Chance. Ribbet was meant to have a lifetime of love and security, but tragically, his life took a different turn. Against our adoption agreement, the family rehomed Ribbet on their own, placing him in a home with a much larger dog.

The outcome was devastating. The larger dog attacked Ribbet, delivering a bite so severe it crushed his tiny skull and damaged his eyes beyond repair. When Ribbet arrived at Second Chance, our dedicated veterinary team at our Second Chance Community Veterinary Hospital in Worcester, through their own tears upon seeing his injuries, leapt into action. They immediately performed emergency surgery to save his life, and while Ribbet’s injuries required the removal of both eyes, our team remains cautiously optimistic that he will recover from his fractured skull.

This tragedy underscores the vital importance of our adoption policies. Second Chance requires adopters to contact us if they can’t keep a pet, and we mandate meet-and-greet sessions with other pets in the household. These measures are in place to ensure that everything possible is done for each animal’s safety and well-being. When pets are rehomed without these safeguards, they face unnecessary risks that can lead to heartbreaking consequences.

Ribbet’s journey to recovery is far from over, and we have no clear idea of how long his care will be needed or what the total costs may be. We cannot share the initial pictures as they are too graphic but will share his journey and pictures as he recovers. We are committed to providing him with the best possible chance to heal and thrive, but we need your support. Every dollar raised will go directly toward Ribbet’s medical care. Should donations exceed the cost of his treatment, any additional funds will be used to help other shelter pets in need of medical care.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing Ribbet’s story and/or keeping him in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness will give him, and others like him, a second chance at the safety, care, and love they deserve.

A huge thank you to Baystate Marketing for their incredible $100 donation to Mochi!

Your support means everything to Ashley and her pup. Mochi came into Ashley’s life at the perfect moment when she had just moved to Austin to support her father’s mental health. Despite learning that Mochi would be a tripawd dog, she welcomed him into her family.

Soon after, Ashley became the sole provider for her family when her father lost his job, and their financial struggles grew.

Then came the devastating news: Mochi needed an expensive surgery on his only front leg, costing $6,000 to $8,000.

Baystate Marketing’s generosity brings Ashley and Mochi one step closer to getting him the care he needs. Thank you for making a difference! 🐾💙

If you want to contribute to get Mochi the surgery to save his remaining front leg - go donate or share the fundraiser to help spread his story!!

Imagine finding your best friend when you needed them most, only to face losing them too soon.

When Ashley moved to Austin to support her father’s mental health, she felt isolated—until she met Mochi, a sweet rescue dog in an ‘adopt me’ vest. They bonded instantly, and despite knowing he’d be a tripawd due to an old injury, Ashley adopted him without hesitation. Mochi has been her best friend and a source of comfort through tough times. But now, he needs help. His only front leg is failing, and the surgery to save him will cost $6-8K. With her father’s disability case still pending, Ashley is shouldering all expenses alone. Any support to help Mochi stay happy and active means the world to her.

✨Please consider donating on our website to give Mochi the chance he deserves. Every contribution makes a difference!✨
