Skylar got her heartworm shot last Friday and she is doing great!!! Here she is with one of her sisters. Skylar is still looking for that furever home! Please help with her treatment costs and/or finding a home!!

07/19/2024

Skylar went to the vet today for her next heartworm treatment. She is such a sweet, happy girl. She was so excited to see everyone at Germantown Parkway Animal Hospital .

We still need donations to get her through her treatments. Skylar has been with us for over 8 months. It took several months for her laser therapy to heal her severely injured knee and now she is getting treated for heartworms.

Please help! We are having our next bingo event August 11. Details coming soon.

07/16/2024

We just received an urgent plea to help this dog who is located in Memphis.

Can anyone foster this pup? The Savior Foundation has a private donor who will cover medical costs.

If you can, please contact us and we will let you know where the pup is located. Please let us know if you can help.

It is no fun and games when you end up in a cone...again. Skylar is back in a cone for only a couple of days instead of several months.

While out walking Skylar, I noticed she all of a sudden started to limp. I looked down and saw Skylar's dewclaw was broken and bleeding.

Germantown Parkway Animal Hospital took great care of Skylar today. She got her dewclaw clipped, cleaned up, and bandaged. She got antibiotics, pain meds, and the cone!

She is definitely a good sport and resting comfortably.

We will be making another trip to GPAH next week for her next round of heartworm treatment.

Skylar has gone through so much already, but she still is happy and enjoying life!

Lady got her stitches removed and we were able to have her sit still for a pretty picture!

She still needs to be spayed! We are still needing donations to cover the costs.

Look at sweet Lady!! She is doing well and her jaw is healing well.

06/09/2024

Here is the x-ray of Lady's fracture.

06/09/2024

Lady had a limp, which got a lot worse last week. We took her to the vet and found out she has an avulsion of the superglenoid tuberosity of the scapula, which will need to be surgically fixed due to the biceps brachii muscle and tendons pulling on that piece of fractured bone.

She will have surgery this coming Tuesday at Germantown Parkway Animal Hospital by Dr. Angie Zinkus .

We know she will be in great hands!

Please consider a donate to Lady's surgery.

Lady is enjoying her big bed while she is recovering from surgery!

Lady had her surgery today. She has a slight break in her jaw, which damaged the blood supply to the surrounding teeth. As a result, Lady had a terrible infection causing swelling and problems with her jaw.

Dr. Angie Zinkus removed the three bad teeth and the jaw was able to be realigned without needing plates or wires to pull it together!.

Some swelling has even gone down already. Now, her jaw will naturally heal itself and her infection will clear up. Lady can't have any hard food or toys while she is healing.

This is such wonderful news!! Everyone is so happy. Lady will go back in one month for follow-up xrays to make sure she is healing appropriately. She will also get spayed and get her preventative meds.

Rebecca Cunningham , thank you so much for being a wonderful foster mommy!

As always, thank you, Germantown Parkway Animal Hospital and Dr. Zinkus, for giving our babies superior, top-notch care.

Lady is resting nicely at home. What a precious girl!!

Lady is loving life even with a broken jaw!!

We loved on Lady after her vet appointment at Germantown Parkway Animal Hospital.

Lady had to be sedated to get very clear dental and head x-rays. Lady has a broken jaw in her lower left mandible. She also has two badly infected teeth in the same area. Because of the severe break, her jaw gets "stuck" on those teeth when she moves her jaw. She paws at it to unstick it.

She is scheduled to have the two teeth removed and attach the two pieces of the jaw bone together with plates or wires depending on which is required during surgery.

Lady does not have heartworms or any intestinal parasites are worms!! She will be rechecked for HWs in 6 months. We hope she is still clear.

We are providing her the best care and really need donations. Please send them directly to The Savior Foundation is paying for her medical treatment.

Thank you, Rebecca Cunningham, for fostering this sweet girl!!

Thank you to GPAH and Dr. Angie Zinkus for always taking excellent care of our babies!!!

Lady is saved from MAS!!! It took a village to protect and help this sweet pup!

Lady has a broken jaw and sat at MAS for almost 2 weeks in pain without any pain medication. Her bio was not even posted when we were contacted. An animal advocate angel contacted us and we jumped into action! Other angels jumped also jump in to help!!

An awesome foster, Rebecca Cunningham, jumped in and took Lady into her home! The Savior Foundation will cover all medical expenses! Donations are very welcome and appreciated, so we can give her everything she needs for repairing her jaw, spaying, heartworm treatment, etc.

Please read our posts to following Lady's journey.

Does anyone own a cane corso or know of someone who does? I have a friend who has one and is looking for someone with the same interest in the breed.
