Help Choose Her Name

We've had her a few days. She's funny! She hops around trying to play with our old man pit. Big personality in a small body. She loves to snuggle! Always gives kisses. Such a good babygirl!

Upsetting update about Beau 💔

On Sunday, Beau had some blood in his stool, & I preserved the sample in the fridge, only to be reminded that it was a long weekend here in Canada. Yesterday he didn’t poop at all, but he did this morning — & unfortunately there was blood again. 😭

I just dropped off the sample at the vet. They suggested doing a fecal sample before bringing him in for another exam because:

  1. they don’t want to stress him unnecessarily, &
  2. he may ultimately need imaging done, since he’s already had multiple physical exams recently & they likely wouldn’t reveal anything new right now.

I am so incredibly worried, exhausted, defeated, & scared. I just want my baby to be okay. I don’t want him to have to go through even more medical procedures than he already has. He was not pooping blood prior to being kicked, & I’m having a really hard time not spiraling & thinking the worst.

Because of this, I will be increasing the GoFundMe goal to $6,000. If Beau does need additional imaging or further diagnostics, I want to be able to get it done ASAP. Unfortunately, GoFundMe payouts can take 2–5 business days to process, & with how worried I am about him, I don’t want delays preventing him from getting care quickly if he needs it.

I feel awful even asking for more help or donations, & I never want anyone to feel obligated. But if you are willing & able to help Beau continue getting the care he needs, it would mean the world to both of us.

Thank you all so much again for the love, support, kindness, prayers, donations, & encouragement throughout all of this. 🖤

Sincerely,
one very tired momma.

• Dumped Labradors Update 4 •

Today is day 13. 💕
Not too much to report back yet, which honestly, I’m taking as a win. No one has come up sick or injured. All of their injuries are starting to scab over and we are definitely no longer catching up on sleep. 😅

• Leroy •
Last week I was starting to get worried about Roy Boy, he wasn’t eating and spent 80% of his days and nights pacing my hallway and crying. At one point he let loose a super mournful howl. It absolutely tore my heart out. I honestly cannot wait to get this big guy into his own forever home. He so desperately wants and needs someone he can bond with and rely on. I hate that he’s bonding to me - don’t get me wrong I ✨adore✨ Roy. He’s still the chillest, well mannered, & generally happy boy. If he’s not happy he’s likely asleep but probably still happy. 😆 I just want him to have a person of his own, he deserves that. With 7 dogs around and 3 being young puppies, he’s not getting the amount of attention I think he deserves. My husband is working out of town during the week so it’s just me to spread my love over 13 animals. If I had a bigger bed I’d let him sleep with me as I think he’d love it but again, he just needs his own people and home.

Roy is currently scheduled for vaccines this Wednesday. He also has a last resort neuter for June 10th. Not that the vet is bad at all, I just want to get him fixed, healed and headed home. 🥹
As of right now his vet care will cost a total of $270-ish.

• The Girls •
• Alli Marie - she’s started to show some spunk and more general puppy behaviors which makes me so happy. She is starting to ask for pets where before you had to go to her to initiate affection. She has learned the sit command, that we sit & be calm to get food put down, she’s got “kennel up” almost down too. She did show a little food resource aggression last week so we started feeding all puppies separately. They were eating so fast in order to get more than the other that they were getting sick almost every meal. I have noticed since separating them all of them have started slowing down and actually tasting their food. Alli’s favorite toys currently are the chew on toys for teething. 🩷🤓

• Cassi Joy - Cassi is my firecracker puppy. If she can push your boundaries just a little without getting in trouble she absolutely will lol. I will say she respects a stern no and I usually don’t have to ask her to stop more than twice. Cassi knows sit but will see if you’ll give her something for nothing a couple times first. She also knows “down/off” and “kennel up”. Cassi definitely takes more patience when training than the other two. She gets easily distracted but loves solo training sessions. She doesn’t do as well in group training because she’s always worried they will get something she doesn’t. Her current favorite toy is the little stuffed blue elephant squeaky toy with the massive ears. 🐘🩵

• Daisy Rae - Miss Daisy is officially the tomboy of the group lol. She spends most of her days playing with my 90lb LSG Rooster. She adores the mud and wearing it is even better than just playing in it. She is a rough player that has no give. She is also incredibly smart and does great in puppy group training like Alli. Daisy is the best at self soothing and entertaining herself, she is absolutely obsessed with the burrow interactive toys. I think I put them back together at least 6-7 times a day. Her favorite currently is the bunnies that go in the giant carrot. 🐰🥕

The girls also have a vaccine appointment on Wednesday.
The current plan I’d like to do for all of them is the same spay package as Roy’s which for them is $200 a piece but with vaccines more likely to be around $250 each.

I have $535 thanks to all the wonderful people here on Reddit! You guys are so amazing, I have cried a few times over having the opportunity to do best for them thanks to your help! The food, the toys, the supplements and the support… I truly cannot express in words how grateful and thankful I am. You didn’t have to but you did and I just thank you from the bottom of my heart. Which is why I hate to ask for more but I really don’t want to end up only neutering Roy due to funds. I’d love to send these girls to their homes with everything in order. I started another CashApp Pool for $500, please know I don’t expect anymore help and I will be posting their vaccines appointments receipts on Wednesday for all 4 dogs. I think it will end up costing be around $900-$1000 for all four. 🫠
I’m still checking for spay/neuter clinics near me.

If I don’t raise enough money I will split the money equally 4 ways and give it to their new owners to use towards their surgeries. 😊
