Pupdates!

Thank you to everyone who responded to yesterday's post! If you missed it, two LBR dogs (LBR foster Bruno and his foster sister LBR alum Nala) suddenly got sick two nights ago. They were having neurological symptoms, like losing control of their bowels and not being able to stand up. Their momma rushed them to the vet, and they were diagnosed with antifreeze poisoning! That's not something that a lot of pups survive, but they're still hanging on and fighting as of this morning. I'll keep you updated when I hear more about their condition.

"Thanks for all your prayers! We will keep fighting!!"

Unfortunately, we know this was intentional, not an accident. :(  The police are involved, and we can't talk about the pending investigation, so that's all I can say for now. We hope that Nala and Bruno pull through and the person who did this to them is punished as they deserve. I want to bite them, but Momma said we have to let the legal system work instead. Phooey.

LBR set up a ChipIn page to help cover Nala and Bruno's vet bills. (Since Nala isn't a foster dog, LBR can't cover her bills directly.) Thank you to anyone who helps!



And now for something to cheer us all up a little...


Baby Austin turned eight weeks old yesterday!! I can't believe our little baby is so grown up. He's officially available for adoption from LBR now, but I have a feeling it will take his foster momma a while to decide on his perfect home. Happy birthday, Baby Austin!!


Update: Not much news, but the V-E-T tells us that Nala and Bruno's blood work is normal (GOOD!) but they're not peeing (bad). We're going to keep fighting for both of them, so please keep that Power of the Paw coming!

  8. Oh my dogness, we didn't know about Bruno and Nala. Poor guys!!! That is just so wrong. I vote on biting them AND legal action. Plus a giant poo in their shoe. Just doesn't make sense how anyone could intentionally hurt a pup.

    Baby Austin is getting to be a big boy! How adorable.

  9. That is something our Mom always worries about with stupid peeps doing something to us while we are outside. We will keep our paws crossed for Nala and Bruno.

    Maybe Baby Austin has already found his forever home:)
