Dogs FOSTERED

If you remember, Gracie was rescued from Santa Barbara where she was an abuse case removed from her home. We brought her here and she stayed at Dog) tree for a couple of months, but we all knew that it was not her final destination. She wanted more attention and didn’t love the huge pack of dogs. We found her a wonderful Foster with a quiet home and Gracie has blossomed. She goes on walks every day and even accompanies her foster mom on errands around town and lunch dates from time to time. We’re happy that Grace has peace and love and a place to call home.

I was contacted by a foster rescue about D.O.G. that he was losing weight to the tune of about 5 pounds per month, vomiting and diarrhea. Prior blood work and x-rays were done and a tumor was suspected. I wanted to bring D.O.G. up to Prescott to get the remainder of his medical work and a diagnosis. A band of determined women got together and arranged a relay transport to Prescott.  Once arriving in Prescott, he had an ultrasound and  D.O.G. had a mass in his abdomen which was causing a blockage in his intestines. It could be cancer or it could be benign. We won’t know unless they go in and take a look. D.O.G. is only eight years old at the most, feels great, has a great disposition and is a happy guy. After some discussion, we decided that D.O.G. deserves a chance.  I accompanied him into surgery at Harmony Vet Care. D.O.G. had a "resection" of his intestines removing the large growth that had turned out to be cancer. He also tested positive for heartworm. We are beefing up his immune system to keep the cancer at bay and treating him via the slow kill method for heartworm.  D.O.G. has gained weight and is living his best life with his new mom that takes him with her on all of her fun adventures.

Cricket is the kind of dog that makes people smile instantly—his adorable Corgi-like face, calm personality, and bunny-soft fur are impossible to resist.

This gentle boy came to us from Arizona Humane Society, where he was at risk due to a reported heart murmur.
His heart murmur is very slight and does NOT require medication.

About Cricket:

Cricket is calm, easygoing, and incredibly sweet. He’s the perfect companion for someone looking for a dog who is past the chaos and ready to simply enjoy life.

He gets along wonderfully with other dogs—both in his foster home and when visiting the sanctuary—and has a naturally friendly, relaxed demeanor.

Whether he’s hanging out with his dog friends or soaking up attention from his people, Cricket is just happy to be part of the moment.

Why Cricket is so special:
🐾 Calm and gentle personality
🐶 Dog-friendly and social
🛋️ Loves lounging and relaxing
✨ Soft, fluffy, bunny-like fur (yes, it’s as good as it sounds!)
💛 Low-maintenance and easy to love

Cricket was almost overlooked—but now he’s safe, thriving, and ready for the next chapter.

Mickey Thought He Had Been Forgotten

For two months, Mickey waited.

He waited outside the home he once shared with his person. He waited for someone to come back. He waited through the days and nights, faithfully hoping life would return to normal.

But his person never came home.

At 10 years old, Mickey found himself homeless and eventually facing euthanasia. Thankfully, he found his way to Dogtree Pines instead.

Today, Mickey is safe, loved, and learning that his story isn’t over.

He loves gentle affection, quiet companionship, and simply being near his person. No drama. No chaos. Just a sweet senior dog looking for someone to love.Here’s a wonderful update on Mickey. 

He spent about a week at the sanctuary but clearly needed a quieter place. Kathleen, Foster to bait Dog chance, came over and met him and fell in love. Mickey is now with Kathleen chance and her dog Lindy Kathleen is working with him slowly, but surely and he is just barely starting to come out of his shell. He does not have the physical scars, but instead has the emotional scars which are sometimes a lot harder to heal. Mickey would not walk on his own. He was paralyzed in fear and now look at him go!!! 

GO MICKEY GO!
