Darby is ready for adoption! She’s a 1-2 year old, spayed female, poodle mix.

Darby is the life of the party! She’s a social butterfly and loves all people and pets. She’s just so darn friendly! We were surprised with her out going personality as she came from a breeding/hoarding situation. That being said she really does not like being kenneled. She has to be in there overnight or during work for potty training but I will warn her adopters she does complain about it (sometimes loudly) so no apartments. Darby loves to explore on the backyard and because of that we would really like her to have a fenced in yard where she can run free safely. She is learning so much in her foster home and we hope her adopters will continue to nourish her curiosity with walks/hikes, etc.

If interested in adopting, please fill out an application from our website at causeforpaws.net.

We still have Jillian available for adoption!

Jillian is a 5-7 year old Shih Tzu. She’s so sweet! Very shy at first but she does warm up. She loves to walk but she’s just a bit slow. She likes to meet all the other dogs. She’s never met a pet she didn’t like. She is not necessarily a snuggle bug yet but I think in the right house she will get there!

When Jillian came in she had some medical issues that we needed to address and want to be up front about. She had a couple mammary tumors that were removed and histo pathology showed they were both benign. She also had to be spayed after years and years of producing multiple litters. Lastly she had bladder stones and needed a surgery called a cystotomy. The stones were analyzed and found to be infection based. That means she had a bad untreated UTI for so long that stones produced. That being said her adopters will need to bring her in at the first site of a UTI for antibiotics. She also needs to drink a lot of water so her urine stays dilute. We do that by feeding her canned food and adding water until the bowl is full.

If interested in adopting please fill out an application from our website at causeforpaws.net and feel free to visit her at the Dekalb-Sycamore Chevy on 7/24. We have a 100 mile adoption radius. Jillian would do best in a quiet home with no kids. Not that she’s bad with kids, she just needs a quiet home where she can be the center of attention. A dog sibling would be a bonus but not required for adoption.

We need your help!!!

We recently took in a bunch of dogs and some of them have come to us very ill.

Jellybean, the beagle came to us with parvo and had to be brought to an emergency veterinarian last weekend (at a very hefty cost) before she could get to our vet and then transition to at home IV and round the clock care from our vet tech volunteer.

We also took in 3 dogs from an awful shelter down south. The shelter was closing and all dogs needed to be moved. We heard these dogs sat in pitch black all day in dirty conditions. Thank goodness it’s closing! 2 of the three are terrified but we are hopeful they will come around. The 3rd however is extremely ill. She’s anemic, has a very bad infection somewhere in her body, and she’s losing blood through her GI system. She has been hospitalized for IV care & home with a vet tech for round the clock therapy for the weekend. She also has bad Cherry eyes that will need surgery.

Please help if you can! Any amount goes straight to pets in need.

CROSS POST: Please contact Maddy at visa.evans@yahoo.com

Meet Trapper! He is a very sweet boy looking for a forever home. I took him in from his owner who could no longer care for him but he is not fitting in as well with my other cats as I had hoped. He loves chin scratches and snuggling on your lap. He is a chunky boy weighing in at 19lbs but healthy other than being severely overweight. He will come with a bag of his special diet food, his bed, and his carrier. Please message me if interested in giving this loving boy a home 😊

Meet Cubby & Bear. Two males that were rescued today. They appear to be 5-6 weeks old. Possibly brindle pitties.

These poor babies are covered in mange and oh so very itchy. The scabies is causing oozy, painful sores all over their little bodies.

In addition to mange they are loaded with worms!!! So many roundworms... and who knows what else in those big ol’ Buddha bellies.

These cuties are not ready for adoption yet. We are starting their treatment right away tonight with a medicated bath to soothe their skin, bravecto to kill the scabies mites/fleas/ticks, and milbeguard to kill the roundworms plus protect against heartworms. That being said we could really use your donations to help these babies heal.

So very thankful that Cubby & Bear are now in a warm place with a cozy blanket, and full bellies. We already love you so much and can’t wait to watch you heal.

Puppy update! 3 of the 4 chihuahua mix puppies have been adopted!

Daisy went to a great home where she has a big brother to take care of her! Her family was so excited to get her and she was a big surprise for their son! She’s going to have so much fun playing.

Mud went to a home with a retired mom who’s going to spend so much time spoiling him.

Rose went to a home with two young girls who are most definitely going to dress her up and give her lots of cuddles.

Marigold is the only sweet puppy left! She’s so sad she wasn’t chosen to get her very own family. She’s such a sweet, outgoing, adventurous, cuddle bug puppy.

Mom was also adopted 2 days ago. Last photo is so you can see mon was a little chihuahua/min pin mix.

Some adoptions are easier than others. Mama Mum now Bear was one of those dogs that you just fall in love with and think about keeping. She however was needed somewhere else. April & her family have had an emotional few months and Mama Bear is going to be the sunshine this family needs right now. She’s such a great dog and i know she’s right where she was meant to be! She’s going to be very spoiled and very loved!

Now time to get these puppies all adopted at the meet & greet tomorrow!

Puppies!!! The flower pups are now 6 1/2 weeks old. They just received their first vaccines and will be ready for adoption in a couple weeks!

The pups are thought to be chihuahua mixes but already seem to be bigger than expected. There is a picture with the mom, Mum, for comparison. Daisy, Rose, and Marigold are all females. Mud is the only male.

They are all the normal play hard, sleep hard, and poop a lot just like most puppers at this age.

If interested in adoption, please fill out an application from our website at www.causeforpaws.net under the adoption tab.

All dogs are brought current on their vaccinations up to the point of adoption. Parasite protection is also done with dewormings, flea/tick prevention application, and heartworm prevention. If old enough a heartworm test is done. The spay/neuter and microchip are included in the adoption fee. All our dogs go to their new homes with their collar/leash, dog bed, favorite toy(s), bowls, and some food to acclimate them. For adoption consideration, please fill out an application from our website at (www.causeforpaws.net) For the safety and convenience of our foster homes and their orphans, we will only consider applicants that are within a 100 mile radius.

Sweet Mama Mum will be available for adoption soon. Her flower puppies (post to follow) will be available in 1 1/2 weeks for adoption and then she will get spayed and be ready to go!

Mum is a sweet girl. She is estimated to be about 19 months old. We think she is chihuahua, terrier, min pin mix. 🤷‍♀️. Well whatever the breed she’s still 100% adorable! She is young and playful. She is very sweet. She does need a week or so to know she can trust you, but then you can do anything... pick her up, trim her nails, clean her ears, etc.

Mum will require a fenced in secure yard. She is pretty well potty trained and we hope by the time she leaves she will be 100% there.

If interested please fill out an application at causeforpaws.net under the adoption tab. Please read about our adoption process as well from the same website.

Welcome to rescue Wally Walrus. This sweet senior just came in yesterday from a breeding situation.

He needs to get vaccines, neutered, chipped, and have these bright red dermal growths examined and possibly removed prior to adoption.

So far he is very scared but super sweet. He just melts into you and wants to stay super snuggled. He’s also a very quiet boy and is happy to just sleep in a bed.

His age is unknown but he appears to be an older fellow. He would probably really enjoy a quiet home with a warm lap.
