After 2 days of hospitalization in Tijuana, Sir Sc

After 2 days of hospitalization in Tijuana, Sir Scruff-a-Lot was stable enough to make his way to us today! He was in visible pain when he arrived and didn’t even touch his welcome salmon (gasp), so second stop was the vet. She advised that we give him a little bit of time on pain killers and antibiotics, recheck blood work early next week, and then hopefully prep for surgery if all looks good. We are still shy of our $1800 goal for Sir Scruff’s amputation, so if you can give anything to help us reach it, we would be so grateful! 🙏

As of now, Sir Scruff is comfortable and already so loved. We’re finally getting a good look at those grateful eyes… are they not the cutest?? 🥺 He was covered in dead ticks so he got a bath this evening. Probably hasn’t had one of those in a while (ever). We’ll wait until he’s settled before he gets a full blown grooming, but man does he need it. Until then, Sir Scruff a-Lot’s just rocking the look of his latest hit, “Baby Got Back Dreads.” 😎 #justrescued

Team TAP just got this ragamuffin off the street!

Team TAP just got this ragamuffin off the street! There was a plea to help after a sweet good Sam saw him hobbling around in front of a convenience store in Tijuana. He’s got a bum leg and will need an amputation, but after being seen by the vet, we learned that he actually needed much more, and he needed it fast. This guy’s blood levels were dangerously low, so he received a transfusion on the spot.
We went into this thinking we were changing a dog’s life today, getting him off the streets and giving him proper medical care. But the vet said we actually saved his life by taking him in. He was on his last leg, literally, and this was the divine timing win we needed today. 💚
We can’t even see his face, but we can just imagine his grateful eyes as he is safe tonight for the first time in a long time. He will be making his way to the US for surgery and continued care just as soon as he is stable enough. This surgery will likely be around $1800 to remove his painful leg and give him some much needed relief, and he is worth every penny that we don’t have but will work like hell to raise. If you can help, any amount helps. 🙏

The face of a dog who finally made it to AMERICA!

The face of a dog who finally made it to AMERICA! 😁🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ok, this was actually Tripp’s face before he made it. He arrived today and is a little scared and confused right now, because his TJ foster mom @pitlyfe_ treated him way too good and spoiled him way too hard. And now he’s here at our facility like, wtf— I don’t get to sleep in bed tonight? Soon, Tripp. Soon.
As of now, he still needs weekly chemo treatment at our facility here in San Diego, but if you’re able to make that happen and interested in fostering this miracle man, head to theanimalpad.org/foster to apply! Specifically looking for someone who will continue the spoiling that he deserves. 💚 #TrippsTransformation

How to get a rescuer with 136 unread texts to resp

How to get a rescuer with 136 unread texts to respond within 30 seconds... send a picture of puppies in a box with a cryptic “call me.” That happened tonight. 2 little boys were dropped off at our facility and our volunteer team intercepted them just in time. 1 tested positive for parvo and while the other’s test is negative, they are both on their way to be hospitalized overnight as we type. This is yet another unexpected expense when finances are already tight, but if we don’t help, they die. We are going to give them every shot, but please send all the love and positive healing their way! We need a speedy recovery from these guys so they can learn about all the good things that come with being TAP dogs. We will keep you posted on the boys we named Grey and Goose. Because you know we’re drinking on a Monday after the night we’ve had.
If you are able to contribute to their care, we would appreciate it beyond belief. You can donate via our site linked in bio, or find us on Venmo @theanimalpad. Thank you for making it possible to help them, because you know they are impossible to turn away.💚🙏

Remember Maddie? She crossed the border and joined

Remember Maddie? She crossed the border and joined our rescue 1.5 months ago now, and there are so many updates with her we don’t even know where to begin. Pretty early on we realized that Maddie was a distemper survivor. She had the classic dry eye that we very often see with the disease, and developed an involuntary neurological tic. Maddie’s wonderful foster family has been working closely with our vet team to try different medications to make Maddie comfortable because the tic causes constant movement and can take a toll on a dog’s body. Luckily, some of the recent meds have been working great and she’s been able to sleep and rest comfortably. Success! But, just as one medical mystery is solved, another unfolds. We got a message from Maddie’s fosters that her belly had suddenly ballooned, almost overnight, and they were worried about bloat. She came to our facility today so the vet could see her, and surrrrprrrrise— Maddie is PREGNANT! Very pregnant. She’s getting X-rays tomorrow so we will soon know more about how far along she is and how many.
Though Maddie is a survivor of distemper and no longer contagious to other dogs, we aren’t sure when she got pregnant and if she was actively battling distemper then. We aren’t sure how this might affect her unborn babies, as well as any of the medications she was on prior to us knowing she was pregnant. All we can do is hope and pray all will be well, but what we know more than anything is that these puppies deserve a shot and Maddie deserves all the love in the world, especially right now. She’s been through so much and now has to add “mom” to the list.
So, now, here’s our plea. Maddie’s fosters are moving in a week and were hoping to have her adopted by then. She was actually about to be posted to our website for adoption until these recent developments. Instead, we are now posting here looking for an immediate foster who can take sweet Maddie in and help her through motherhood. 😅 If you are able to open your home to Maddie and pups for the next 8 weeks, let us know. We provide anything and everything you may need, and a whole bunch of support, too. You’ll also be my best friend? 🙏 #prettyplease #fosterme

This little ham. This is Maeve. We met her in Tiju

This little ham. This is Maeve. We met her in Tijuana with @atchoofoundation, living in a neighborhood on the street with 6 other dogs. Male dogs. Un-neutered male dogs. You see where we’re going with this? We learned that the dogs in the pack were owned and cared for, but Maeve had been abandoned and had no family. As if we weren’t already putting her in our van, hearing that sealed the deal. We had to convince Maeve that coming with us was a good idea— aka, we had to coerce her with hot dogs and grab her by her scruff as she screamed, tried to fear bite, and peed everywhere. We promised she would like us real soon, and this video was taken by her foster mom just 2 days later. It’s funny how they sometimes don’t want to come with us, don’t want to leave the only life they have ever known on the streets, and then so quickly it clicks— How good it will be, how loved they are, and it’s like they have been in a home their entire lives.
We are so happy to have taken this 4 month old pup off the street in time to prevent the many, many litters that were inevitably in her future, hanging in a crowd of 6 dudes with massive balls. She’s been spared that life, likely only 2 months before that could and would have been her reality. You go, Maeve. Stay young and wild and baby-free forever.💚 #spayandneuter dammit.
