THE JOURNEY FOR A NEW LIFE HAS BEGUN

SEE BELOW AMY IS READY FOR A HOME!

Little baby Amy we are told was hit by a car way back on about 8-20-11. She was taken to a vet by her owner but no x-rays were taken or supportive care provided. Then on 9-3-11 the dog was taken to the animal shelter and left there. This little one had now sat for weeks with no correct care.  That shelter she had been left to had no means to help a very broken dog so the shelter staff jumped to action and called R.E.D. R.E.D. dispatched transport and had our vet on standby even though it was after hours. We scooped up Little Amy and with high hopes for her recovery drove her straight to the care she had needed weeks ago.  

The x-rays immediately made us sad and really a little mad. She had bravely endured weeks with no pain meds with fractures that would have made a grown man black out in agony. Her pelvis is fractured/smashed on both sides and she has a smaller degree spinal/tail fracture. A real\"Wow\" factor is she can stand on one rear leg with these injuries. These are recoverable injuries even though they are affected by the serious delay in treatment and care prior to arrival at R.E.D. Her recovery journey will be months. R.E.D. is currently working with Dr. Ginny and an Orthopedic Vet to give her what she needs to get well. Amy needs a lot of one one one time from R.E.D. staff to keep her moving towards well and mentally happy and developing properly which costs additional $ to our program. This brave little girl deserves a chance to be pain free and well again. We are as committed to her recovery as she is amazingly strong. We are with you little girl every step of the way on this journey of recovery. Please, join us on this life saving effort to give baby Amy the chance to grow up and live a long and loving life. Please, make a sponsor donation.

Thank you Dr. Ginny for your life saving work.

Thank you to Suzy and the OPHS animal shelter staff that made the immediate call for help from R.E.D. for this dog.

UPDATE: 11-18-11 Amy is ready for adoption. Amy has made an amazing recovery. She runs and plays and is full of life. She still has some nerve damage in her foot that is causing her to walk on the back of her toes but we still have hope she may gain some more of that back. If not she at this time just needs the foot to be on soft surfaces not concrete and she does fine and uses the leg just like her other one. She is available for adoption at this time to a home that understands her care needs. She is a normal dog but needs her foot protected from pavement etc.  Amy is a playful loving dog that has a zest for life that we all enjoy!

UPDATE: AMY is still waiting for an applicant adopter! Hard to beleive not one has been intersted in this great little girl.

THANK YOU TO THE FOLLOWING SPONSORS:

We Want a Home Please

There is a list of dogs below that would all love to be adopted or get into new foster spots.

POPPY IS URGENT-LAST CALL FOR LIFE:

RED Office staff stepped up and has been caring for this dog at RED\'s office. She still needs a foster home or adopter. We try to save these very limited office spots for critical care animals and Poppy is not critical care she is just a regular dog waiting for a home to love her.

ORIGINAL POST: She like Pink had a mammary tumor that was removed. The shelter she is in does not put medical dogs up for adoption. She must exit via rescue to get a chance at life. The tumor was removed and had good margins. People get a second cance at life after thi surgery so we are baffled why not one wants to give this tiny girl one. So close to another chance please help save her. Please email or call if you can help save this dog via foster care or with a sponsor donation. None of these dogs can come to rescue unleSs people help donate for ther care costs. Dollars save lives.

URGENT 8-20-11 SO FAR WE ARE AT NO SPONSORS AND NO FOSTER HOME.

UPDATE: 1-21-12 This dog still has no sponsors or a real foster spot. she is currently hanging out at one of R.E.D.\'s offices.

Turtle Needs Your Help

Gone Without a Trace

Little Rosa woke up expecting nothing more than a normal day of pain and misery. Sitting in a small dirty cage she found herself being picked up and stuffed in a even smaller cage. More rabbits were put next to her and then they were put in a car. More cages full of rabbits were put next to her and on top of her. Then before she knew it she was being taken inside a very large building then set on a table. To her dismay more rabbits in pain were set right next to her. After a long time she was then picked up a few times handed around then put in a bigger cage away from all she knew. After what seemed like a whole day she was then set in another car this one much warmer and comfy. She was then taken to her new home. She was the put in the biggest cage she had ever seen in a nice room full of rabbits. in a few minutes she had fallen asleep. Soon she felt worse than ever and she soon had been packed full of water was being given medicine day and night. then one night she began to breath slower and slower she soon was asleep and then she was lost to the skies above forever.

We will always miss you Rosa.

By, Jr R.E.D. Volunteer Shayla P.

A rabbit with no name. A life and a soul for anyone one to take for $5.00 and no questions asked. They just needed you gone so they can clear a cage for the next round of rabbits born. That is how we first saw her. She was taken into the RED Rabbit Adoption program with the hope she would get a new chance at life. Sadly, this little bunny was extremely ill and arrived in our care with coccidia. This illness if not treated in time is deadly to rabbits. She was already to sick when she got here but RED tried everything to save her. We named her Rosa and loved her. She was only with us a few days before as we held her gentley as the light within her faded.

This is something that should never have happened. Rabbitries that sell rabbits to others and to children should test their rabbits and provide clean conditions. We have established an effort in Rosa's memory.  The RED Rosa Test for Life Program. We are offering fecal testing to 4H children for their rabbits. May you rest in the arms of the angels little Rosa. You will not be gone with out a trace as we shall make your life and loss bring education and help to others. Please make a donation as $1.00 can test a rabbit and save lives and prevent children and rabbits from suffering.

FOSTER VACATION CARE AND OTHER NEEDS

No foster parentts have requested vacation care at this time. Foster parents remember to plan ahead and give us notice.

BARN BUILDING HELP NEEDED!

TONKA NEEDS A FOREVER HOME OR A FOSTER HOME.

UPDATE: 2-20-2010 THANK YOU PACE ENGINEERING FOR HELP WITH THE ENGINEERED DRAWINGS.

December 29th 2009: Tonka is a happy boy and hanging out in retirement. The barn that shelters him and others is a quiet place and a place where they are happy and the world does not worry them. Sadly, we who care for him are not as happy or worry free.  As housing the rescue horses and rabbits has become a possible issue. We started a process that we wish we had not now that we know the difficult nature of getting a structure of this age approved in the sea of county confusion even though it is very sound and attractive barn. Sorry if we sound frustrated but the process has been beyond reality. We need help keeping him happy along with his other 2 horse friends and the possible future rescues. We need someone that likes or is good with dealing with the county and a Building Engineer willing to donate services for engineered drawings of the exisitng structure and / or donations to cover the costs of replacing his stall and the hay storage area that is used for the rescued horses. To keep this barn sheltering rescues we need help with engineered drawings. The time line is immediate as the permit process was started and we were not told we needed the drawings until after we started. The other option is to replace the barn and start over with a new structure, (even though there is nothing wrong with the barn we have but of course new would be nice too). If there are any donors that would like to help the horse and the caregivers of the horses here would be grateful. There are so many horses in need right now displacing these rescues will impact the lives of other horses in need and stop us from helping more. Tonka is a senior and can not stay out in bad weather. He needs his nice cozy stall. I will be happy to chat and brainstorm with anyone that has pro bono legal, engineering or construction services or donations that might help solve the problem for the rescue horses and rescue rabbits. If I spend my time struggling on this I am not able to do my rescue work for R.E.D. and it costs lives and services for people and pets in need every day. tlc@rescueeverydog.org  Please help!  Tiami

March: Tonka is doing well and has had his feet trimmed. He has had his vet assessment and has a shoulder injury that has healed incorrectly and has affected many other parts of him. His hip and other shoulder are out of alignment from compensating for the injured front shoulder. His jaw was also partially dislocated. He had chiropractic and acupuncture treatments last week and did really well. His jaw was aligned and he yawned and yawned. Finally able to eat and yawn pain free for the first time in a very long time.  On his leg. Before treatment he was dragging his foot and after he could trot with his foot elevated. He had a little happy trot around the field! He will need more treatments to continue to improve. At this point he is a big pasture pet that is a joy to be with. With lots of care and love he will be a more sound horse. His next vet visit will be on the 14th of March. He will have another chiropractic adjustment, acupuncture and a dental floatation. Everyone that meets him is so happy he is alive and well. He is gentle and kind. He loves his treats and his night time dinner. Yum!  He loves children, being brushed, being petted and has been a sweet R.E.D. ambassador. // UPDATE: 4-21-08 Tonka is doing well. He is hanging with his horse buddies Taylor and Sunny. He loves to nap with the boys. It is funny usually one horse in a herd will stand watch but not these boys. Everybody is snoozing in the sun He has learned new things like waiting politely to enter his stall and exit his stall. He loves his stall and can hardly wait to go to bed at night and eat his goodies. His new friend the farrier will be here next week to do his hooves again. He is on some great supplements to help with his joints and healing and he has shown improvement on his leg and will be seen again by the vet for another adjustment in about 3 weeks.  So, we wait for time and care to heal him and hopefully he will continue to leave his leg issues behind. UPDATE: 5-3-08 Tonka got his feet done and his hoof shape is much improved as he is using more equal pressure and he has had several on time hoof trims now. UPDATE: 5-7-08 Thank you, Superior Pet Foods, of Poulsbo for donating joint supplements for Tonka !!!UPDATE: 7-10-08 Tonka is still improving and at times appears to stand normally. Though he will probably never be a riding horse again. However, he is an awesome equine buddy and has personality plus. He has become the more dominant of the horses here so he is really feeling way better than when he came. Farrier reports his hooves now look awesome! So complete success on hoof recovery and reshaping. He is pretty sassy now and sweet Tonka is a Happy Horse! UPDATE: 10-22-08 TONKA IS DOING WELL AND IS READY FOR ANOTHER DENTAL REALIGNMENT. PLEASE HELP SPONSOR THIS KIND BOY. UPDATE: 2-10-08 WE COULD USED DONATIONS OF/FOR BEDDING BALES AND GRASS HAY! WE ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR HELP/DONATIONS ON HORSE HOUSING/SHELTERS AND THE COSTS FOR PUTTING THEM IN.  Tonka just had his feet done on Monday and he is doing very well. He has been wearing his blanket again to keep warm on these chilly wet snowy days. 4-15-09: Tonka had a vet check and his feet done and he got the all clear from the vet. He is doing well. He will never be a riding horse again due to the severity of his old injuries but he has fun in the sun and loves life. Tonka is now availalbe for adoption to an approved stellar and fantastic forever horse home.

RESCUE REQUIRES FUNDS

We are expecting a drop in funding for our program this year so the first and most obvious need is donations. We would like to prevent any cuts in services as the services are in more need than ever. If anyone has a fundraising idea or effort they want to put forward this would be an awesome time to help! In short the need is up and the donations are lower. Please help.
