We need donations for Baby’s Care urgently.

If you can’t donate please share !

Photos from Valley of the Sun Dog Rescue's post 08/20/2024

Update: Baby came thru her 3rd surgery and will be you going home today at 4:30 pm from Adobe Veterinary.

Please keep the donations coming for this sweet baby girl ! Thank you to those who have donated already 🐶🐾❤️‍🩹

UPDATE ON BABY. DONATIONS DESPERATELY NEEDED.

Things have not gone well for her she had another spot by her shoulder that had opened up and had to have a second surgery to remove more dead skin from the 2 places on her hips and to remover the dead skin from the shoulder area.

She has also has to go in for a vet appointment everyday for special bandage changes and medication to help her heal.

It has to granulate it cannot be sutured together. After a week's time the vet has determined today that she also has more tissue that has died off due to severe trauma . That is from the bottom of her neck down past her shoulder blades and from side to side. This means that more than half of her body is going to be exposed without any skin covering it.

She will be going in today for the third surgery to remove that new dead skin and she will be considered guarded until we see how she is going to respond because she is still fighting infection.

We are hoping for the best. She is a fighter and has been so sweet thru all this.

I have attached more vet bills including her surgery today. If she pulls through this surgery there will be many weeks of recovery and daily Special bandage changes. We are hoping to get to the point where the rescue can manage those in her foster home..

We need donations to pay for the vet bills for this little girl. No one had any idea how bad it really was.

We are still looking for a foster or forever home for this beautiful pup.
Titan has been through Board and Train and is doing quite well. He is a fairly laid back dog and happy to be living home. If someone takes him into their home to foster or adopt They will receive follow-up training so that they can learn what Titan has learned. If you are interested please send us an email at.

Deaf rescue pitbull serves no purpose on the farm but loves causing 'chaos' 08/14/2024

One of our very own dogs who was fostered and adopted, Evie, a deaf pit bull is now Tik Tok famous. Here is the article posted by Newsweek. If anyone remembers her story, she was thrown from a moving vehicle and was lucky enough to be taken in by Valley of the Sun Dog Rescue. She was foster failure, which means her foster family loved 💕 her so much she was adopted by them.

Deaf rescue pitbull serves no purpose on the farm but loves causing 'chaos' Evie loves keeping her days varied, whether she's chasing animals or trying to be a cow, but her only job is "to spread joy."

Please help Donations needed
This little girl was found under a vehicle with severe injuries to both sides of her butt cheeks and shoulders. She weighed in at 4.8 lbs. We are currently at the vet to have her assessed and treated. They are saying she was grabbed by a lrg bird of pray. Her whole body is swollen and she smells of infection. We are calling her Baby. Her vet bill is high. She will need to go back for the next couple days for bandage change on one of the injuries to her hip. Please help by donating and share.

TITAN!!! Foster or forever home needed
Our featured dog for the next couple of days needing a foster or forever home.
Titan has been in training for the past few mo and is ready to move on. Putting him back in boarding is not an option. He needs a foster or adopter. He is a great house dogs and loves to cuddle. Titan is house and crate trained and would do best in a home with older kids. He will get along with a female dog close to his size. He has played in large play groups when in boarding. If he adopts the trainer will provide 3 free training sessions within the first 45 days to ensure he succeeds in his new home and so mom and dad can be as smart as he is. If you want to foster him the trainer will also help you with what he has learned.
If you want to FOSTER please text Kathy at 480-228-0126
If you are interested in adopting please email us at [email protected] for a pre adoption application.
