The Dogs you see below need more than our TLC before being Adopted Out. The reasons vary with needing Trainers to Severe Medical Conditions. They need you to Share/Donate for their Cause, because every penny will get them one step closer to their Forever Family.
WE ARE CURRENTLY IN DESPERATE NEED OF RESPONSIBLE, COMMITTED FOSTER HOMES. PLEASE VISIT OUR FOSTER PAGE FOR MORE INFORMATION!!!

KEIKO
Sweet little Keiko came to us from a shelter in NW Indiana after being found as a stray with another dog. Her owners were found but only elected to reclaim the other dog found with her. We soon found out after taking her in she had some ongoing medical issues. Keiko has a chronic UTI with constant urine leakage. After getting some background on her she was left as an outside dog and has had with problem since a puppy and it was never corrected. Our vet has now referred us to the specialists at MSU to diagnose the exact issue and see if surgery will give her some relief. This poor girl has been in constant discomfort due to infections for years....we hope to end that with us!! I will post estimates and costs as they mount.
Keiko is the sweetest girl, great with dogs, cats, kids...you name it!! It amazes me with her health what a great spirit she still has. Hopefully her luck is about to change.

NEMA AND HER 9 PUPS
These photos of mama will break your heart...if you think they look bad here they are 100x worse in person. Nema was just pulled from a rural shelter in KY today. She is literally a skeleton with skin. She has nothing, no mucle tone, no fat....and that means no milk for pups. She has a long road a head of her, nursing pups takes a lot out a healthy dog, but when you are this emaciated to begin with its dangerous. She had 6 boys and 3 girls. Visit our Facebook page to view the puppies as they grow.
Nema is just the sweetest girl in the world. When we get her back on her feet she is going to be just beautiful!!
But...to do that we will need your help. Please consider donating to help us care for Nema and her pups.
UPDATE 10/10/15: Unfortunately with the poor condition of mom and pups on arrival we were only able to save 2 of her pups, Leia and Han. We had to remove them from Mom at a week old and bottle raise them. The pups just turned 4 weeks old and are doing well; despite a serious infection in Hans leg that we have treated. It is unknown at this time if there will be any long term damage. Nema is doing AMAZING with her foster mom after being treated for Hookworms and Coccidia and slowly gaining weight. We are currently taking applications for her and she will be ready for adoption in approximately a month!!!
UPDATE 12/9/15: As we feared, the infection has done irreparable damage to Han's hip joint. Our vet is very optimistic that he will function well even missing the joint. Currently at 12 weeks he is doing wonderful and shows no signs of pain. He runs, jumps, plays with the best of them!!
UPDATE 4/7/16: Miss Leia has been adopted into a wonderful GSD Heeler savvy home. Momma Nema and Han still looking for their perfect fit!! You can see them on the ADOPT PAGE.
UPDATE 6/01/16: Nema has found her forever family and is happy as a clam. Han is still working on some training issues but we home after a month he will also be ready for his new family.
DURHAM NC SEIZURE OF 30+ MALAMUTES
A huge seizure of 30+ Malamutes from a breeder/hoarder case in North Carolina. Some were too sick on arrival to survive. Living in small crates, malnourished, undersized, in their feces/urine. Rescues from all over the country came together to get these kids pulled from the shelter and into foster care. Most have health issues and half are Heartworm positive.
MUSH helped in the cause by taking a male HW+, and another male and female.
EVERYONE MEET OZZY, CAMI AND STEEL!!!!!
UPDATE 10/12/15: Oz, Gracie and Steel are doing Amazing!! Oz will start his heartworm treatment next week, Gracie is healthy enough for her spay and Steel (in his foster/adopt home) was neutered and doing great. Oz and Gracie are available for adoption. Oz has about 2 months before he can go to his forever home and Gracie will be available in a couple weeks =)
