Pets for adoption now
Due to our director's spinal chord injuries and having
to care for her 91 yr old father 24/7, we need to find
homes for 3 dogs and 5 cats. After 8 mos. in hospital,
rehab, hospital, rehab.... we are finally home, and
director's back is ruined but she has to take care of
her father. We are looking for experienced and
licensed caring CNA to live with us and help
transfer, watch and only change every 3 hours in
exchange for room & board and salary. There
is just no time to do anything else, and the
rescued pets need volunteers to help care for, groom and
find homes for. Shaggy our Labradoodle needs a
groomer asap please before his matts get bad.
A Big Thank You goes out to The Leader of The Pack
Grooming in Lindon, Utah for donating a free grooming

groomers in Utah County. Go to their website at

Can you help me find a home for her? She is 7 years old

problem is, when I am gone she squeezes through the

now charging me $75.00 every time they bring her back.

Would you sponsor just one new young rescue: 6 Yrs ago
DB was diagnosed with degenerative disks, and he
recooperated so well but yesterday just before
Christmas, DBs legs gave out from under him and Vet has
him on Prednisone, but he needs much medical help. Won't
you sponsor his medical needs? DB
We need $120 each for Deworming, Shots 2 sets,
Microchip, Spay/Neuter of kitten, puppy we just rescued.
We have spent over $1,780 plus in vetting and no
donations have come in for over a year. Cali needed
Dental and meds for $155, she is so sweet and never
complained. And with our little 3 legged
Precious that just had liver failure, we encurred
another $330. And 08/03/11 6 cats, and 2 dogs
needed complete shots boosters for another $240, and we
dont have $200 for Dentals 2 of them need. Another
$200 for Shaggy and $130 still needed. We hope these
little angels will get generous donations to reimburse
costs of helping people, shelters and these thrown away
and neglected dogs and cats. I found a great program
starting in Utah
www.caninewithacause.com that helps disabled people
train their future service dog. $700 for the
course. I hope to take my rescued German Shephard
there to help me up, and to pick up things since my
spinal chord injury is getting so painful for me to get
up from the ground or take deep breaths.
Thank you dear friend of over 12 yrs Dawn Buhlman of
Dawgy Heart rescue of over 25 yrs here in Utah for your
support and friendship: "I just posted your website

SPECIAL EXPERIENCED
LABRADOODLE
Groomer/FosterHOME NEEDED:
Gentle Giant
Labradoodle SHAGGY is young
(2 yr), friendly, quiet,
crate trained, but needs
lots of training as he is
big and strong , can be
protective and so
sweet. He is groomed,
neutered, vaccinated and
microchipped. He is so
sweet, cuddly, loving, does
all you ask him to do,
fetches and brings it to
you. What a great dog.
He is doing great in
Advanced Obedience Training
and will hopefully go onto
Service Dog Training for our
founder. Thanks CAndy
of K9 Grooming in South
Jordan for grooming him
again this summer.

WATCH HOW ADORABEL HE IS ON
THIS LINK
Thank
you all for your
enthusiasm and interest in
Shaggy. I thought at first
he was a Sheepdog, then the
Sheepdog rescue in AZ told
me if he had a tail, he must
be a Bearded Collie.
Now he is relieved of all
those thick mattting he had
all over his body, with
foxtails getting into sores.
But he will be fine and be
neutered, vaccinated,
microchipped and health
needs taken care of next
week. WE don’t know
total costs to be reimbursed
yet. Now that he is
shaved with white on chest
and under chin, we think he
must be a Sheepdog/Bearded
Collie mix or
LabraDoodle since he doesn't
shed. Please fill out
questionaire below.
Shaggy is doing great! He is
a wonderful boy. We can't
imagine life without him. He
sleeps through the night on
his bed with us and knows
where to potty. Thank you
for helping us find the
perfect companion! Here's a
few more pics of Shaggy."
Unfortunately Shaggy lost
his family and needs an
experienced very loving
home.
Thank you Candy owner of
K9
DESIGN
for helping relieve Shaggy
and bath him of
awful smell he must have
suffered with for over 6 mos
we estimate. He loves
to fetch, was so good at
groomers. What a great
groomer and filled with
REscuers. Support such
generous and compassionate
small businesses: call Candy
at 801-446-7996 or come by
with your pooch at 12652 S.
2700 W. #E in Riverton UT.
We saw pet owners with
special needs dogs like
epileptic, bad arthritis and
others come in for special
care by this great
place. Candy is so kind and
gentle that the dogs are
very relaxed. We hope
Candy will want to work
together on kids program
which is a dream of hers as
well.
Now
he looks like a
ShaggyDoodle.
This 28" piece of matting
went accross his back. when
we rescued him for the

Organization allows troubled youth to train, trust dogs
Denise De Vynck suffered back injures after a head-on collision years ago. Her spirits were low, she needed a friend and she didn’t know where to turn.
In 1993 she found that friend in an unexpected form — a dog named Charlie.
The friendship that De Vynck found with Charlie served as inspiration for Save a Dog and Kids, the non-profit organization she formed in 1999 that has rescued over 1,200 dogs since.
“I had a parent come to me one day and say her kids did not like the after-school programs and wondered if they could correlate something with the dogs,” said De Vynck. “That’s when it occurred to me that I could have children help the dogs and in turn the kids would be helped.”
De Vynck has worked with children from every kind of background, but said she especially enjoys working with troubled youth. Once she gained her passion for animals, De Vynck said she realized dogs could further help the youth that she works with, and decided to pair the two together.
Save a Dog and Kids allows troubled youth to train and trust dogs.
De Vynck met with one of the nation’s leading experts on abuse, Dr. Frank Ascione, who said children who are abused or see abuse are predisposed to it. After talking with the doctor, De Vynck said Ascone’s research showed that animal therapy is one of the best ways to rid of abusive traits.
“Kids who have been through difficult situations have to feel needed,” said De Vynck. “All types of children can benefit from learning how to train and trust dogs. Those children who are troubled, have been abused or have depression learn to trust again. ”
Save a Dog and Kids does not just work with children, but anyone in need of a new friend. De Vynck explained that Charlie, her first rescued dog, helped her regain her health, and after gaining this happiness she realized she wanted to share it with others.
“Animals are such a gift, such angels,” said De Vynck.
Programs all over the United States have paired up with Save a Dog and Kids to transport the animals to their new homes. Flying Paws is a non-profit organization that flies animals to homes all over the country. Their rescue railroads consist of people volunteering their time and gas to transport animals from one state to the next.
“Bailey, one of the dogs, was transported across 15 states, with 15 different drivers to get to her new home in Chicago,” said De Vynck. “It is really cool to see people come together and help.”
De Vynck has found homes for over 1,200 animals all over the U.S., and those who work with the animals love seeing their progress. Kristen Queen is a new volunteer at the rescue and a student at BYU.
“It feels so good to see the progression of our work,” said Queen. “The process shows Denise’s love for the animals and it just feels good to know we are making a difference. ”

are
not

without
even
giving

see
the

like
you
would
in a
regular,

and

store.
While
I'm
a

and
would
always
encourage
you
to
adopt
an
animal,
the
fact
is
that
this
huge

"Dear Utah
Animal
Advocates,
On Friday,
February 25,
the Utah
State House
of
Representatives
overwhelmingly
voted in
favor of
House Bill
210, a
disturbing
and inhumane
bill that
would allow
for the
killing of
feral
animals. It
has now
moved on to
the Utah
Senate for
consideration.
If passed,
HB 210 will
allow anyone
in the
unincorporated
(meaning
mostly
rural) areas
within the
State of
Utah to
decide for
themselves
whether an
animal is
feral and
"humanely"
kill said
animal(s).
Nowhere in
the bill is
the term
"humanely"
explicitly
defined.
The ASPCA
opposes this
proposed
legislation
for several
reasons.
First, it
often is
very
difficult to
determine
whether an
animal is
“feral,”
especially
in the case
of cats.
Second, this
measure
would
provide
airtight
legal
protection
to those who
kill animals
for fun, as
long as they
can claim
that they
believed
their
victims were
feral.
Third, Utah
has been
very
proactive in
working on
Trap-Neuter-Return
programs for
feral cats,
allowing
these
animals to
live out
their lives
without
contributing
to the cat
overpopulation
problem.
This bill
would defeat
the efforts
of many
volunteers
who have
worked
tirelessly
to help
these feral
cats.
Thank you,
Utah, for
speaking up
for these
under-protected
animals! "

“can't

The South Valley Animal
Shelter in Spanish Fork
received $2,000 for its good
customer service from
Maddie's Fund, a foundation
working with
Petfinder.com to improve
customer service.
Shelter
director Mike Morgan said,
"We're thrilled," adding
that the money is always
welcome.
He plans to use the money
for a more aggressive
vaccination campaign and
veterinarian care for
adoptable pets. Morgan said
people who want a pet but
can't afford the up-front
costs will benefit from
Maddie's Fund largesse as
well. The shelter will be
able to offer lower cost or
free adoptions to these
folks.
"We will try to use the
donation for things that
directly affect the pets,"
he said.
The shelter posts photos
and descriptions of
adoptable pets on
Petfinder.com, an online
database of homeless pets.
Secret shoppers phoned,
e-mailed or visited randomly
selected animal rescue
organizations and chose a
weekly winner based on that
organization's customer
service and response. If the
random shopper visited a
shelter and had a positive
experience, that shelter
immediately won $2,000.
That is how it happened
at the South Valley shelter,
Morgan said. Someone came
in, visited the pet areas,
took a tour of the shelter
and visited with the staff a
while. No one thought
anything was out of the
ordinary as Morgan said
people often do this. But at
the end of the visit, "They
said we'd won $2,000."
Morgan wasn't sure it wasn't
a joke until he received the
letter with the check.
According to the Maddie's
Fund website, a
representative visited the
shelter the week of Sept. 6.
Maddie's Fund developed
its customer service reward
program in response to a
survey of
Petfinder.com website
visitors who were motivated
to adopt a pet rather than
buy one. These motivated
adopters did not always
receive an encouraging
welcome. Nearly half the
time, shelters didn't reply
to potential adopters. After
this survey, Maddie's Fund
staff placed customer
service improvement at the
top of their priority list.
"The folks at Maddie's Fund
pledged $50,000 this year to
make it happen," wrote Betsy
Saul, co-founder of
Petfinder.com.
The shelter, at 582 W.
3000 North, is open 9 a.m.
to 6 p.m. Monday through
Friday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Saturday. South Utah Valley

YEAH
SHE IS ADOPTED TO MOST WONDERFUL RETIRED COUPLE FROM LA.
PICS COMING. PIPER is a 2 yr female Shorkie, that
is a Yorkie/Shih Tzu "Designer dog" and she is the
smartest, pp pad trained, fetches, happy and loving
little girl. Doesn't bark much and is a love once
she gets to trust you because her prior owners
scared heR. GO TO LATEST ADOPTIONS TO READ UPDATE

Soldier
is all Yorki, all puppy, loving playful, and working on
his housetraining, but is doing well, putting on weight
as he was way too skinny, and he is so adorable and
teacup too. He is not much of a barker, prefers to
play, rub against the other dogs, you, roll on his back.
Adorable. He is tiny at 5 lbs. and so smart and
adorable. Young little ones like this are hard to
come by.
We hope that a large
donation of $800 including all vetting for the next two
teacup dogs like we have been given in the past will
help reimburse vetting for all rescue pets to date:
Annabelle is as teacup as a Pom gets,
with her tiny little face, feet and all hair. She
has the nose of a Japanese Chin though that makes her so
cute, she loves toys, spinning, begging, and sitting in
your arms. She loves to chase toys and sit with you in
the recliner. She is so tiny and adorable and soft
and fluffy.
WE got three little ones out,
Pommeranian/Jap Chin 4 lb little girl Ana, 5 lb Yorkie
boy Little Soldier, and 8 lb purebred Toy White Poodle
Kitty are the most loving little babies that we were
thrilled to give the adoption donation to the shelter of
$236 total that goes to help the shelter buy
vaccinations for all the homeless pets in the shelter.
We will now have our Veterinarian do dentals,
spay/neuters/vaccinations and microchips and have them
thoroughly checked out. We have spent $1,200 plus other
costs total and so need to recoop costs with $750
donation each please. They are all going
outside to potty on leash well, making friends, and Ana
loves to fetch toys and play and do little tricks.
She has a very tiny voice too. Kitty is quiet,
calm, loving and just wants to sit on your lap.
Little Soldiers needs obedience and house training but
he is smart and should learn them well. We loved
working with the wonderful shelter staff that we will
have work with us to deliver these little angels to
their new mommy when we find the best applicants by
delivering them to their new home. WE got a great
group picture with Pat, Deidre and Lindsay of the
shelter that we will post on our website
www.saveadogandkids.org/Adoptions.htm And come
read and see the entire trip to new home pictures of the
dogs we rescued from this shelter in the past at

ad on craigslist for the senior pups you are trying to
find homes for. I actually saw that you needed a

Thank
you all for your
enthusiasm and interest in
Shaggy. I thought at first
he was a Sheepdog, then the
Sheepdog rescue in AZ told
me if he had a tail, he must
be a Bearded Collie.
Now he is relieved of all
those thick mattting he had
all over his body, with
foxtails getting into sores.
But he will be fine and be
neutered, vaccinated,
microchipped and health
needs taken care of next
week. WE don’t know
total costs to be reimbursed
yet. Now that he is
shaved with white on chest
and under chin, we think he
must be a Sheepdog/Bearded
Collie mix or
LabraDoodle since he doesn't
shed. Please fill out
questionaire below.
Now
he looks like a
ShaggyDoodle.
This 28" piece of matting
went accross his back. when
we rescued him for the
shelter he had been in for 2
weeks. How
horrible in this heat. Thank
you Candy for helping him.

Need a haircut again, would you sponsor one for one of our rescued dogs? 
My
name is Leah Bergstrom. I
was hoping my calico cat was
brought into the shelter.
She got out my home on
1/31/12 and we have not seen
her since. I have attached
her picture in hopes she is
there. You can e-mail me
back or call my number
801-404-6751. Thank you! I
know you are busy.
