In January, we were called in by a church group in Katy.  One of their members had suffered a heart attack and would be hospitalized for quite a while.  She was a breeder of shih tzu and there were 34 little dogs at her home with no one to care for them.  The church people were avid animal lovers and were begging for help.

We were already overwhelmed – dogs coming in from everywhere – but as I thought about the situation, I couldn’t in good conscious turn these people down.  I went over just to look and inventory the dogs so I could formulate a plan.  When I got there, I could see that the dogs were all living outdoors underneath a shed and there were several with injuries.  And there were a new litter of puppies.

Our LSSTLAR foster parents rallied!  We were able to take in all of the dogs and got them into good foster homes.  It took us quite a while to get them all vetted for two reasons – funding, of course, and also the time to get them through the vetting process. 

Above are two of the little dogs that are now adopted.  These two will be Socks and Sophie and will live together with their sister Maggie.  Lucky little dogs. 

Here is a LINK to the original story about these babies.  We cannot do things like this without our wonderful, generous supporters and our compassionate volunteers!!

This adorable little guy came to us last summer as part of a cruelty confiscation from the Houston SPCA.  He was in pretty rough shape, but slowly blossomed as he was treated with love!

He found his forever home this weekend and will be a beloved pet from now on.

Irisi Katy, one of the Katy 34, was choosen to be the playate of adorable Buddy G and went to her new home at the Meet and Greet at Deogi Dog Daycare.  The family looked at many, many dogs, but Irisi immediately latched on to the teenage son and the rest, as they say, was history.  Way to work it, Irisi.

We had a little impromptu Meet and Greet at Deogi Dog Daycare, Spa & Resort this Saturday.  Little Kamilla Katy, one of the Katy 34, was adopted by a wonderful couple.  This adorable and very sweet little dog will be the pride and joy of her mom and dad who live in a sweet high rise in downtown Houston.

You all make this possible!  Had we not had the trust that we could fund these little fluffers’ medical needs, they could not have been saved.

Little Miss Prissie Fitzgerald, one of the pitiful NC puppymill dogs, CLICK HERE TO REMEMBER, was adopted by her foster mom this past weekend.  She is a very lucky little gal.
