Story
Introducing Gia, the charming 8-year-old Akita and English Bulldog mix eagerly searching for her forever home. With her unique blend of breeds, Gia is a 55-pound bundle of joy with an irresistible underbite that adds to her adorable appeal.Gia's ideal home would be one where she can shine as the only pet, allowing her to bask in the undivided attention and love of her new family. Because of her size and strength, we are recommending a home with children aged 12 and above, making her an excellent choice for families with older kids.Gia's occasional stubbornness and desire to protect her toys come from her Akita/bulldog genetics. But her loyalty is also in keeping with her breed, and she will be a devoted and vigilant companion, always ready to keep her loved ones safe.If you're seeking an extraordinary canine companion with a heart full of love, Gia is eagerly waiting to become a cherished member of your family.

Story
www.TheLastResortRescue.com PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING THIS PET THE FIRST STEP IS TO FILL OUT OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AVAILABLE AT THELASTRESORTRESCUE.COM. If you have a question or inquiry please email us at tlrapplications@gmail.com   Hershal has had a pretty rough life..Its clear he was never loved or cared for. We rescued him from certain death when he found himself at a southern kill shelter, infected with a deadly heartworm infection, intestinal parasites, skin infection, ear infection, thin and unvaccinated, and dumped at a shelter. His spirit was broken. Then to make matters worse, he contracted PARVO at the shelter!! We couldn't let him die that way! So we rushed him to our vet and got to work looking for foster. Today Hershal has a clean bill of health, he's looking and feeling great. And he loves how it feels to be safe and loved and part of the family at his foster home! Hershal is approx 7 or 8 years old. He's a sweet, loving, laid back dog. He's housebroken  and he loves kids. He would probably do best in a home without other dogs. August 12, 2024, 9:56 pm

Story
Tri Pod boy! Casper came to us last fall as a 5 month old puppy from a local family who had purchased him as a small puppy. Quickly they realized that there was something wrong with his hind legs but they did not have the funds to bring him to an orthopedic for further testing. He was surrendered to us and immediately brought to our orthopedic who found that he had not only one but two deformed back legs, luxating patellas (grade 4) on each leg. This is a genetic mess up and he was purchased from a backyard breeder so it is not surprising. Within one week Casper had his first surgery to fix the more usable leg. It was a long road to recovery and we were uncertain of his future of walking normally again. After that leg healed he really didn't show signs of overall improvement and it was decided to not move forward with surgery on the other leg, for many reasons. We gave him time, PT and a lot of working on walking before deciding to take the more deformed and painful leg off. About 2 weeks ago he had surgery to amputate the leg that was holding him back, it was a scary choice because we were uncertain how his other leg and ability to walk would adjust to this new concept of being 3 legged but with our chins on the floor Casper was up and walking the most normal he has ever walked in his life. Casper has always loved life, you can find him cuddled up with his buddy Zazoo at any time of the day or playing in the yard but the new light in his eyes has been amazing. He is finally thriving and able to be a "normal" dog. He is finally ready to find the perfect husky loving home and we couldn't be more grateful to be a part of this guy's story.  Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 42.375 Age: 1yrs 4mths 3wks
