AMBER

December 2011 When Amber came in she had three babies. She is a smaller husky. Looks like someone is trying to breed Klee Kai’s. We have had 4 just like her in the last two months and now there is another one in Harris Co. We think they are all from the same litter. She was found in a culvert and the people that found her tried to pull her out not knowing she had puppies in there and she bit them so Animal Control was called. Unfortunately they had to stay in there for 10 days. Any unprotected puppies in a place like that does not stand a chance not getting sick. Unfortunately the puppies (3) died of distemper. They were about 4 weeks old and only weighed 2-4 lbs.  Amber was also sick and not eating. She also had distemper. I force fed her for about 10 days and the Vet finally said she was not getting any better and we had decided to put her down on the following Monday if she had not improved. She was on two very strong antibiotics. Then that weekend I called a Vet that I had talked to at an event that was working with a new chicken serum for distemper dogs. He said if she had not reached the neurotically stage yet there was a 95% chance of success so I decided to try it. They like rescues because they know they will not get blamed if it does not work and she would die anyway without something. So she got the shots—three shots 12 hours apart. He gave the first one and I gave the other two that he had given me to take home with her. After the first shot she drank water which she had not done in 10 days and continued to improve from then on. That was about 3 weeks ago and not she is doing great. She still needs spayed and heartworm treatment but I am waiting till after the first of the year so she will be stronger.She was also very depressed after the pups died. She is now coming out of her shell and doing regular doggie things. She even played with a toy and got up on the couch with me and slept while I watched TV. If don’t do much of that but did not want to move to disturb her. She is still shy but warms up fast when she trusts you. She never showed any signs of aggression when I handled the pups and gave meds etc so she trusted me. Thanks Julie for sponsoring Amber in honor of your mom for Christmas.

TILTON

December 2011 When Tilton came in from Harris Co animal Control his head was completely upside down. We thought it was a neurological problem but found out it was just a really bad ear infection that had been neglected. He only weighed 43 lbs. and should weigh 60 – 65. He also had very little hair because of mange and heartworms. We tackled the ear infection first because that was the most important. Of course wormed him gave him shots and good meals. He was in the Vets office for 4 days. But he eventually came around and started eating really good and gaining weight. Then for the mange and skin infection (dermatitis). Thanks Julie for sponsoring Tilton in honor of you dad for Christmas.

RUDY

Hi!  My name is Rudy.  I was hit by a car and some kind people stopped and picked me up and got me to Husky Haven.  I am a lucky boy to be alive.  I had some of my teeth knocked out but no broken bones.  I am very scared of people right now even though everyone here is nice to me.  I am especially afraid of men.  I need some time to heal before I am ready for adoption.  I will need a foster or adopter who will be patient with me until I can learn that not all people are mean. I have some vet bills that need paying and some kind people have taken a collection to help with them. I had to go back to the doctor the other day because I was in so much pain I wouldn't eat or take my pain medicine.  I am eating again and feel a bit better but I am still in a lot of pain.

PAPA

I am a senior guy who some one found laying on the side of the road.  Lucky for me even though they thought I was dead they stopped anyway.  I was so weak when I came to Husky Haven I could not even stand up.  I was starving to death and I have mange. Please sponsor me and I will keep you updated on my progress to getting healthy.

Hi, I am Zeb.  I am in pretty bad shape but the nice people here at Husky Haven say I will get better.  I have mange and am very skinny.  They ae treating me for the mange and feed me three times a day.  They give me baths with special shampoo that helps make me feel better. I am a good boy while they give me baths and blow me dry.  I am so lucky they care about me enough to take such good care of me.  This morning I jumped on my foster mom.  She says she usually doesn't like dogs to do that but she was happy I was feeling well enough to do it. As you can imagine I have some medical bills to pay.  I would appreciate it if you could help with that.
