It's time for Caz's happily ever after!!!

In June, we saw that 10-week-old Caz was available online because the family that was so happy to get him from a breeder found out their human son was strongly allergic.

We were happy to help, and he immediately went to our crack foster Stacey Small Bean. She, her husband, and their ESRA adoptee Finn gave this boy the lake life while we looked for the perfect forever home.

Caz has been a Hoosier for a few months now and is living his best life on a farm with all kinds of animals, plus his canine sister Shelby. The two have become besties!

Have a wonderful life, Caz, mom and dad, Shelby, and all the farm animals!

Are you the person who'll be Obie's hero?

Obie is one of four dogs from the same home that ESRA-Ohio and Southern Indiana brought into our care last month.

All four dogs experienced severe neglect before being rescued.

Over the past few weeks, Obie's three housemates have moved out of medical boarding and are settling into their ESRA foster homes.

Now it's Obie's turn.

This sweet boy needs the comfort and TLC of a foster home to continue his healing.

Obie is estimated to be 3-4 years old and is already neutered and vaccinated. He's on daily meds and gets regular medicated baths for his skin.

He has bacterial and yeast infections on his skin. He doesn't have mange and isn't contagious.

Obie needs a patient foster home to help him learn the ropes of being a dog. He's undersocialized and fearful but making progress.

Baby steps.

And he hasn't shown us one bit of aggression. He allows handling with no issues.

Obie is okay with other dogs. In fact, having a confident, balanced dog(s) around to watch and learn from would help him a lot.

He won't be a rough and tumble playmate at this point. He's untested with cats.

And because of his timid nature, he needs a foster home without young children.

If you're interested in fostering Obie, please contact the ESRA Ohio coordinator at [email protected].

ESRA Michigan needs a foster or foster-to-adopt home for 1.5-year-old Duckie, who's unspayed and will need to be spayed at ESRA's expense.

Duckie has been bounced around repeatedly in her short life and is currently northeast of Muskegon. She has already had three homes, but ESRA is committed to finding her a true forever home.

Duckie is 33 pounds and loves playing with her unneutered Springer brother, though she took about a week to warm up to him.

She's reactive with other dogs and growls when another dog is close to her food or chew toys. She also growls at her brother she's done playing or doesn't want to play.

However, it's very possible much of that behavior will ease with training, consistency, and being spayed.

Duckie lives with two cats, one that's outgoing and another that hides. She plays with the outgoing cat and is very gentle with the shyer one. She has, however, killed the family's chickens.

Duckie is great with kids and people, and though she growls a little first, she lets her mom take food and toys away from her. Her mom says she's "loyal, loving, full of life, and will follow you everywhere."

She's currently on Prozac because she was harming herself trying to escape her wire crate. Her family now crates her in a plastic crate, and she's better in it while the family is gone and the dogs must be separated.

If you're interested in fostering or fostering to adopt Duckie and aren't already an approved ESRA foster or adopter, please complete the appropriate app. Foster: https://www.springerrescue.org/support/foster-care-program/ Adoption: https://www.springerrescue.org/adop.../adoption-application/

UPDATE: That was quick! Adoption finalized with a recent wonderful ESRA adopter.

Meet 5-month-old Ember!!!

This darling girl is being fostered in the Jackson area and is now available for adoption.

She's learning from her two-year-old male Springer pal and gets along well with him. She's great with humans of all ages.

From her foster mom: "Ember is a loving pup. She wants to be in my lap or next to me all the time. She needs a lot of hugs, kisses, and pets.

She's almost potty trained. No accidents in seven days. She walks well on a leash. I walked her through Tractor Supply the other day and did great.

She's still a little reserved but is starting to wander around the yard on her own.

She loves riding on the golf cart, scooter, pontoon boat, and car. She falls asleep in the car.

When she's not running around outside, she plays quietly in the house with her toys. She's so sweet.

If I was ready for another pup, she would be the one. She learns so fast. She knows sit, lay down, stay, here, get down, and no.

We'll have a hard time saying goodbye to this one."
