5/16/16: Sweet little Jules was considered "too scared to be adopted" by the local shelter and labeled "rescue only" then given 2 days or you know what was next.

We picked her up same day and we didn't make it to the car before being covered in sweet kisses. Jules was a delight and stole our hearts immediately. Thanks to the UYR member who brought her to our attention, a 2nd member who forwarded the perfect applicant and a 3rd member who helped with a home visit, this little darling now has her own family and a darling little sister to boot. It took several people to get Jules from "scared shelter dog" to forever happy dog but that's what UYR is all about.

Happy Tails darling!!

Heidi and new family

05/03/16: This sweet girl has been adopted!! Perfect family!!

It's Happy Tails for Heidi

In February Heidi's owner felt it would be in her best interest to surrender her to the care of UYR. Heidi was only 5 months old and very sick. She was experiencing symptoms consistent with a liver shunt. The condition had not been confirmed however once she began a low protein diet her potential to be a playful puppy began to slowly show through. Clinical tests and a sonogram all pointed us in the same direction. After much research and on the recommendation of the surgeon we moved forward with the surgery in hopes her shunt could be repaired. We all felt that she deserved a chance at a quality life. Thankfully our prayers were answered and the surgeon feels confident that based on type and size of the shunt that it was fully repaired and Heidi will have no future complications. Almost immediately following her surgery she began to gain weight and run and play like as a puppy should!! She quickly transformed into our little social butterfly. From day one it was obvious that Heidi is a love bug, she loved her "people" so sweetly even though she did not feel good. She loved even more intensely once she began to feel better. The best news is that this sweet girl has been adopted by a family that not only adores her but is just perfect for her, a family of four where she will be an "only pup". She will enjoy 100% of their love and attention (right up her alley). She is already chasing balls and enjoying her own bed. This little girl is so deserving of the life that is now hers and we know she is grateful to UYR for making it possible. Although she took a big piece of her foster family's heart with her we are all thrilled to have been part of her journey. Run and play sweet Heidi, you are so loved!

Louie and new family

4-30-16 Louie found his most perfect forever home. He has a wonderful mom and she knows all about how to care for a little guy with diabetes. Louie knew the minute he stepped into the door this was going to be his forever home and it was going to be a wonderful home. He even has a new sister just his age to play with, to sleep with, and to keep him company every day. We could not have been happier for adorable, sweet little Louie.

Update 05-10-16: This update is from Louie's Foster Mom who received it from Louie's Forever Mom: Remember little Louie in Winston Salem NC . . . I have just a little update on this amazing little diabetic dog . . . He has an angel to begin with who is watching over him every day of his little life. He now is on a raw diabetic diet. His new Mom prepares chicken, green beans and boiled eggs chopped fine and cooked brown rice. It's served warm with a sprinkle of cheese. He sits patiently until ready. Then gobbles it all down. Treats are greenies, chicken, squash, green beans or a Broccoli Floret! Louie's dogtor did NOT put him on this diet, his new Mom knew this would be better for him and it would keep his already perfect health in check.

His big sister, Zoe keeps an eye on him and makes sure it's ok with Mom before allowing others to pet him.

And this dog that was reported to never sleep in the bed with his people, and he was perfectly happy sitting on the couch beside his people is now, sleeping with his Mom! If ever there was a happy ending this little guy has certainly found it. I was so blessed to have an angel contact me about this little dog that nobody wanted because he was 'diseased".

Diseased my foot! He was waiting for the right Mom to come along . . . and she did! Oh, how I love a Happy Tail!

UYR does not recommend any diet, but this certainly is a story worth sharing! Enjoy!
