Well some good news… 🗞️ Matisse leg did not have to be amputated ❤️ On the other hand… the cone didn’t make it 🙄 Absolutely lovely girl that needs a home 🏠

EMERGENCY 🚨 Can we all band together for Eden? She’s having an emergency operation. She went in for a keyhole spay and they found a large diaphramic hernia being blocked accidentally by the liver. This will blow at any moment and she’ll pass in minutes. Until now we’ve never saved a dog with this condition as it was too late. The good news is she was on the table when they found it so we have a chance but it’s extremely complicated. We are waiting for news if she’s made it… We have the best gds family so any words of support are appreciated. We struggle in times like this 😞

We often hear people say, “I couldn’t adopt an old dog. I couldn’t cope with losing them so soon.” But what about the dog? They can’t bear the thought of dying alone in a kennel, either. And the truth is, we could lose a young dog at any moment, too. Sometimes, we need to be stronger for them. To put their needs before our fear of heartbreak. Because giving an old dog a loving home, even for a short time, will mean the world to them. What I love most about volunteers visiting Galgos del Sol is seeing how often their minds change. They come to meet the dogs, witness their daily lives in kennels, and discover what a difference they could make. They begin to understand that rescue isn’t just about finding a dog to fit into your life, altho that’s off course important, It’s also about seeing the dog who needs you most, and asking what you could offer them. Of course, adopting a puppy or a younger dog is every bit as much a rescue. Every dog deserves a home. ❤️ But there is something incredibly special about giving an old dog the chance. And that’s exactly what Catherine has decided to do. After volunteering at Galgos del Sol twice in just a few months, Catherine & Shaun have opened their hearts to Rubio, an elderly boy, isolated his whole younger life who now struggles to interact with other dogs. His time is precious. They have chosen to give him the retirement he deserves, lots of adventures, rather than kennel walls. Thank you, for reserving our old, lumpy boy Rubio. ❤️ Even after recently having some lumps removed, he deserves this. Rubio will leave in the next months 💕
