Hi everyone,

Humbly posting here as I desperately need help and advice for my dog, Duday.

What Happened:

She initially showed severe weakness, drooling, and twitching during sleep. We initially suspected open pyometra, but after getting a second opinion and running full panel tests, she tested NEGATIVE for pyometra and POSITIVE for CANINE DISTEMPER. 😭

Current Situation:

Distemper is causing neurological symptoms (myoclonus/twitching and drooling). She urgently requires aggressive supportive care, confinement, and anti-viral/immune treatments (including Virbagen shots).

Financial Status & Breakdown:

I managed to sell my personal digital camera for ₱3,000 to cover her initial vet consultations and lab tests.

We reached out to Mindz Pet Canine Distemper Rehabilitation Center, and their required 3-day confinement and treatment protocol totals ₱23,060 (screenshot of official estimate attached).

The clinic does not accept installment plans and requires payment upfront to begin her full confinement.

I am doing everything I possibly can, but as a student, bridging this gap alone is overwhelming. Any donation, upvote, or advice on local distemper care resources in Metro Manila would mean the world to us.

Please keep Duday in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you so much for reading and boosting this post. 🙏❤️

He goes by Salvador or Captain. He is mostly blind

I had rescued him when he was about about 4 and had him ever since about 6 months ago.i was put in the hospital when my appendix burst. I was in there for almost a week. I left him with a friend of mine who unfortunately got arrested and then Salvador was pit in the Denver Animal Shelter

I had no way of calling them at the time. And when I had finally got the chance I was to call Denver animal shelter I was told he might have been adopted. I just need to know if he is okay and if there's anyone who knows anything.

Look at this sweet wiggly puppy! Her name is Peep and her time is up.

Palmdale, California. She is euthanasia listed and so eager to please you.

This is hard story of one dog...

Meet Tyrone. An enormous baby with excellent manners and a very simple agenda: lounge in the yard, hang with his dog friends, and be loved by absolutely everyone.
This boy is GOLD. Dog friendly. Cat friendly. Kennel trained. A gentleman on the leash. Smart, willing, gentle, and ridiculously easy to be around.
Tyrone is deaf and has limited vision. He can make out shapes and shadows, finds his way around, and adapts beautifully. His world looks and sounds different, but he is very comfortable living in it.
And living with him? He has been an absolute breeze. He enjoys his routine, loves his people, and is perfectly happy taking life at a slower pace. A little guidance and a chance to learn his surroundings go a long way with this guy.
Please do not scroll past him because you assume he will be too difficult. The Tyrone we know is manageable, affectionate, and easygoing. His biggest demand is probably going to be a Tyrone sized spot to lounge beside you.
He deserves a family who sees what we see. One incredibly good dog.

🚨 EUTHANASIA LISTED 10/17 🚨 Before we even had Pongo and Kiley situated today, another euthanasia list came out. Another 18 dogs are scheduled for euthanasia Thursday September 17th at one shelter in Houston, TX. This is the reality of the overpopulation crisis we are in. The lists don’t stop. As soon as one comes down, another goes up, and rescues can only save as many dogs as we have foster homes and resources for. If you have ever thought about fostering, you are needed. Please don’t wait for someone else to step up. Right now, it truly takes all hands on deck. We will continue to save who we can, when we can. Our team has the bandwidth to work on a plan for one dog from Thursday’s list, and there was one girl we couldn’t overlook. Her name is Rowan. 🩷 Several volunteers brought Rowan to our attention weeks ago, hoping we could help her. Now, after 28 days, Rowan is on the euthanasia list for Thursday 9/17. We already have a Houston foster offer for her. What we need now is a Pittsburgh area foster or foster-to-adopt commitment starting Saturday 10/17 to complete her plan. 🩷 Rowan - 3yo - 47lb Volunteer notes: “Everytime I’ve seen Rowan she’s sitting at the front of her kennel waiting patiently to be the one who gets chosen. She’s got the saddest worry face that makes you want to smother her with kisses and tell her it’ll all be okay. Once you take her outside she’s the happiest girl in town with a smile that is contagious. She happily ran the fence line with another dog tail wagging, she sat perfectly for some photos, let me put some bows on her. She is a little excitable coming out of the kennel but can you blame her after being there for 28 days??” We need Pittsburgh to step up for Rowan. If you can foster or are interested in foster-to-adopt, please get an application in ASAP. And even if Rowan isn’t the dog you can help, consider becoming a foster. There will unfortunately be another list Friday and another dog who needs somewhere to go.

We adopted an Italian rescue in June of this year and I was wondering whether there were others in this group.

This is Jonny, he's 9 months old.

Hi all,

So, this july, my souldog suddenly, unexpectedly crossed the rainbowbridge. I have OCD, and one of my biggest compulsions was about his wellbeing. So him dying when I was away from home was my biggest fear come to live.

I'm still grieving, but it's going better. In the beginning of August, I was wondering how I would ever know what next dog would match us, until I came across him: amonst all the puppers I scrolled by, I suddenly saw him... Having a plushie in his mouth, showing it to the camera. Exactlly the same plushy my boy had... And I knew... this is him.

He comes from Spain, is 7 months old and arrived by Happy bus 06-09. He was super scared, peed all over himself and me when they handed him to me. We drove home, and I placed him in his basket. He stayed there the rest of the night and next day. Only in the next evening, he started to sit up, take food from my hand etc.

The first 1,5-2 weeks this progressed. He got out to pee and poop on puppypads, he started to come out of his basket to take food from my hand, and more and more earlier on the evening, instead of holding everything until the night.

Then after a few days, he would hop on the couch with us, and sleep next to one of us on the couch, and go back to his basket at the morning.

Because he kept eating parts of his blanket, and me being scared of that causing obstruction, I wanted to replace his bed later in the evening, when he would be on the couch. That same morning, he was basically up all night with my BF, exploring the livingroom, terrace and even the yard. HUnfortunately he got startled by people passing by, and hid in the bushes. I tried 30 min to get him out, but he wouldn't. Totally shut down, snapped out of fear when I tried to pick him up. Eventually I had to partially walk/drag him back in.

I thought we ruined all progress, but at night he just joined us on the couch again and also kept walking around in the evening. We switched the beds, but he decided the new bed was scary. So ever since (more than 2,5 weeks now, he stays on the couch.

The thing is now, the longer he's on the couch, the more he seems regressing. Where as before he would explore during the night and evening, play, go over to his foodbowl/drink etc.... He is now holding it in until late in the night. If I don't offer, he will leave his food and water until night.

I would feed him snacks to help him show we mean no harm. I offer his food in his Kong and he eats. I offer him lactose free milk, thinned with water, he drinks it.

I probably shoudln't? But it just feels wrong to have a 7 month old puppy and not get him enough nutritions. People tell me I should place his bowl, take it away if he hasn't eaten in 10 mins, and place it back later in the day and eventually he will start eat.

I just start feeling restless. My OCD is flaring up, thinking all kinds of things that maybe he is ill, or I've done something wrong to setback his progress, or that if I don't fix this he might be malnutritioned or worse..

He just stays on the couch most of the time now. Instead of coming of and playing, he got up 1 time 2 nights ago, just to pee and poop and drink. Last night, he didn't even come off to pee at all. I notice the corner where he put himself smells a bit, so I assume now he just lets it run.

He is so scared and startled of basically everything. I've had a lot of dogs before with some issues but never this bad. The organisation told me he was anxious, but I had no idea it would be this bad.

I know 6 weeks is too short of a time, but I just want to make him feel comfortable so badly... I'm at a loss what to do best. Everyone gives opposite advice. Leave him, pet him, don't pet him, offer food, don't offer food, exposure, not pushing...

I just feel anxious and worried that we're in over our heads here. I just feel so dissappointed with myself I can't help him over this. Sometimes I even wonder if it was the right choice to take him away from his mom in the shelter.

I've seen a lot of posts here on similar shut down/anxious dogs. I hope someone can give me some reassurance that it will be fine :(
