Saturday THREE Fur All!!!

Welkhome to Day Two of Paw It Furward fur The Last Resort Reskhue!
Furst off, I'm thinking how blown away I am by all of woo and your support!
My paws are failing me!
Since today is the FoURth of July, I let Mom send up some furrer-works on Thursday night!
Here is the shot with the natural light that was left...
and here is the same shot with the night setting in use!
I was pretty proud of the fuzztrails...
and I had to laugh at it all!
So khome Friday am, I was working on restoring/refreshing/renewing what she had removed fur our furrer-works!
I really did wonder what her point was!
I thought it looked pretty nice with the sun reflekhting off my special fluff!
and I went bakhk to dream about helping Kade get healthy!
Kade after being discharged from his magikh dokhtor!
Khan woo say happy AND lukhky boy?
Here is what Kade has: it is OCD (but not like the OTHER OCD - the kind my mom has from time to time).
Here is an update on him

Kade was discharged from the hospital today after having his orthopedic OCD surgery yesterday . The surgery went very very well and he looks great . Sam picked him up today and I met her where she handed him off to me to bring him to his foster mom while he recuperates and rehabs from surgery . He seemed very happy to be back at her house and happily walked into his crate to get some rest . He was a little traumatized from the events of the last couple weeks , and has lately been a bit fearful and skiddish , but no worse for the ware and definitely moving better today then before the surgery ....and clearly much less painful .

He will have a long road to recovery as he needs 2-3 weeks of very strict cage rest and 3 months of very limited activity , plus physical therapy and follow up care .
He should make a full and total recovery from his OCD now and in a few months should be able to play and romp like any other young dog his age, free of pain and fully functional !
A HUGE thank you and lots of puppy kisses to everyone who helped us make this possible for Kade , all who contributed to his enormous surgery fees , and any who leant your support in any way . Kade's Surgery alone cost over $2900 , as of tonight we raised just over $3000 for Kade in less than a week and his surgery was paid for in full by the donations we received so far. We are still receiving some staggered donations and they will go directly towards costs for his follow up care and any further needs . We cannot tell you how much we appreciate you all pulling together and helping us make Kade's surgery happen !!! You are all wonderful !!!!

SO, isn't that news worth celebrating?
For those of woo looking fur a snail mail address fur The Last Resort Rescue, it is
The Last Resort
139 Point Breeze Drive
Hewitt NJ 07421
Mom and I say keep those khomments khoming!
Woo khan khomment more than once during the three days I am pawing it furward!
I'm letting Mom use the Xterra later today fur a transport! She'll share Sole's pikh tomorrow along with some other furry furry special pikhs! I just KNOW woo will want to khome bakhk and see THEM!
Have a safe and happy HOWLiday celebration!
Please make sure your amerikhan hoomans keep woo safe and sekhure tonight during any of the fireworks celebrations.
233 Hugz & 233 Khysses,
Khyra

That was a lot of fuzz, you must feel lighter now. I like when you laugh it makes me and Mom smile. I am so happy about Kade that I am dancing inside. Have a safe 4th of July, I don't like the boom-booms and have been very nervous and jittery. I will be glad when it is over.

licks and sniffs, Sasha

Hi Khyra. I'm so happy that Kade is doing well. I love all your happy-ever-after doggie stories.

By the way, can I have some of your leftover fluffs to make myself a coat? That would be so khooooool!

I'm going to do four shows this weekend and the weatherman says we might have thunderstorms. I can't imagine being in the ring during a storm... oh the mud will be so much fun to roll in!!

Happy 4th of July!

Stella said...

I have heard that if you leave dog fluff on your lawn, or flower beds or veggie garden, the Oswalds will all stay away! Not sure if its true, or not, just what I heard.

Hooray for Kadie! We are gonna send a little help to Stella Kelly for her furry expensive surgeries. I am so glad her Mom rescued her!

Kisses,

Stella

When your mom brushes you, does she sing "You're my little fluffy one" to you? You know... to this tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa66d2ctAH8

Hi, Khyra -

We are glad to read that Kade's surgery went well.

Kaci and I do pretty good fuzz trails but not as good as yours - we don't shed.

All your furrer works could make a coat for Kaci and I.

Love -

Hershey and Kaci

Taffy said...

Wow! I bet you lost 10 lbs in fur! You and your mom are doing a great thing and we love you for it. We don't have the extra to donate so we really appreciate your willingness to help. I have been very behind on blogs lately so I know how you were feeling earlier in the week. I'm hoping things will calm down at my house soon (meaning, I want to be the only dog around here!)
Love and hugs,
Twix

Hero said...

Happy 4th of July! Kade will be in my thoughts and prayers as she recovers from her surgery.

The Husky in the Window said...

What a lot of fluff!!! We keep sending ours under the furniture and on the carpet so mom has to vacuum a lot. Do woo get special payment for all that fur removal?
We are glad to hear
about Kade doing well.
Husky Hugs, MayaMare

Mochi and Bali said...

Thank you for the update on Kade! I'm so happy he's home and doing so well!

Hmm...maybe if mom and dad didn't vacuum up all my fur I could have done that here! Happy 4th!

Hey Khyra, did you happen to see any of my fluff floating by there - Mom set a ton of mine loose last night?

Loved your laughing photo.

Woos, the OP Pack

Rudy said...

That's one thing Mom doesn't worry about -- blowing coats. Only time that happens is when the humans use a hair dryer, then our coats just wave around, no flying fur or anything.

Happy 4th -- I'm running in an agility trial in Winchester an hour from here and having a TON of fun! Got one ribbon already today.

Love,
Rudy

Hank said...

Khyra, honey.....I sure wish you were here to snuggle me. These dang fireworks are scary! (But don't tell nobody I said that!)
