Anyone in MAINE/Northern New England need help ASAP - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

107barney · 12-02-2010, 11:34 AM

I am working on arranging the two females to stay with my dog trainer for the week. I will still transport from attleboro to RI and then from RI to someplace in CT to your foster home. In the event that my trainer is unable to have room for the girls, I will take them for the week. As soon as I hear back from her, I'll be back in touch.

I am glad to help in some way, this warms my heart that they all have a second chance at happiness.

I'm so happy for these pups, I'm in tears. You guys are the BEST!!!

Look at all you've done this week, and it's heatening to see Yorkietalk in action this way.
Looks like all plans are in place, but as backup I am on the route from Maine to Fitchburg, and I have a customer coming form Long Island on Saturday who I don't mind recruiting for possible help with transport.

Thank you Susan,

At one point I was going to call you...I was planning on going to festival of the trees in Meuthen on Sat.....and thought if needed we could have used you as a meeting place.... ( I am trying to get out of it so I can take the ride with Cathie but I promised my Goddaughter...so we will see)

So you are not going to be in Fitchburg? We were hoping to see you there.

107barney · 12-02-2010, 03:56 PM

I'm trying to figure out if I can pick the dogs up from YorkiesInc on Saturday in Attleboro and take them to Clinton CT or another point right off of I-95 to meet the foster. Will come back when I hear from TLC.

I too offered to take the dogs directly to Long Island from Providence (or attleboro even) but TLC's group is not able to accept the dogs on LI for a couple of weeks.

I'm going to Fitchburg on Sunday. Lorcan & Rosy are entered but he's being a brat... I want some other people to evaluate them.
I'm trying to help with this rescue and see there were a few developments while I was at handling class this evening. I've emailed TLC, may still be a transfer point on Saturday but can even house the dogs here temporarily if need be.

Tae1107 · 12-03-2010, 05:15 AM

Hi Susan,

Yes just reading this now...so do the females have a foster home to go to this weekend? or are they going to be moving around till a permanent foster home is located?

I just want to make sure that they are all set before heading down this way.

yorkielady06 · 12-03-2010, 06:46 AM

LONG UPDATE:::
Ok all 6 need placement at this point. Unless I am told other wise.
Yorkies Inc will definitely take the 2 boys and TLC for sure 2 females..so still need to work on the other 2 females.
Also the Yorkies go on in Fitchburg at 1245 so I would need to meet up by 12 with someone so I can see the dogs go on if possible.
I will go through each dogs issue one by one for you guys and I took pics too and will email both Yorkies Inc. and Yorkie911 the pics as putting them on here is a huge undertaking and with 6 extra mouths...lol more work than I would have guessed. Went to be well after 1 this am after cleaning up 5 times and petting them..poor things. All have now been microchipped and bathed/groomed. All have blackish gunk in ears and been cleaned twice now. All have teeth in very poor condition with tartar down all the way and most are missing quite a few teeth. Feet are fine now and all are friendly and social. No biters or aggression. No vaccination or vet history at this time. None are housebroken, all are marking as 2 girls are in heat. None are potty pad trained either as I put boys in one and girls in another double xpen with potty pads on 1/2 and they just go where ever. All are around 5 except Torpedo who is around 16 months they owner stated.
FEMALES:
Silky is 7.2 pounds, in heat, eye discharge in both eyes.
Satin is 4.3 pounds, in heat I think?, Missing front teeth. Appears to have flea allergy as a few spots are sparse.
Lace is 4.6 pounds, missing teeth, left eye appears to have a cataract, seems more of an alpha?? but was told that Silky was.
BooBoo is 5.2 pounds, has what appears to be a large hernia.
MALES:
Sir is 3.3 pounds, has no teeth at all, on closer look appears to be missing part of his lower jaw, and barks for attention alot. Very mellow and wants to be a lap dog. Owner stated he ate dry little bites kibble fine, I softened up his food and added a tbsp of canned twice a day for him.
Torpedo is 3 pounds and has retained canines and tartar is half way down his teeth. He constantly is humping Sir...

Hope this helps a little with fosters.

yorkielady06 · 12-03-2010, 07:33 AM

Ok all 4 females still need placement at this point....

Tae1107 · 12-03-2010, 07:37 AM

Yorkies Inc is seeing what we can do....as I just got an email from Yorkie 911 stating that they are no longer able to take any of the dogs...so now all 4 females need placement

We are not concerned about the conditons of the dogs or the health issues...but with two females being in heat they now cannot be spayed for several weeks..meaning we would need to find long term foster care for them as we do not place out any dogs till they are fully vetted.....

TLC · 12-03-2010, 07:52 AM

I was up all night last night trying to make this work. And then when I went to bed, my brain was still racing trying to map things out and truly make this work...Everyone was extremely gracious with their offers of help, but it just could not work out for everyone involved. Transport and Foster Homes are extremely difficult to get finalized, especially from a few states away.

I am still available to help from my computer and phone, so please let me know what I can do for you.

yorkielady06 · 12-03-2010, 08:25 AM

OK all are microchipped, had DHPPs today, and 2 days of worming with Panacur. I hope that helps with some of the vet bills. I wish I could afford more....

Now I hope they will find the best furever homes where they will be treated like the princes and princesses that they were born to be..

Tae1107 · 12-03-2010, 08:55 AM

Yorkies Inc is not concerned with the vet bills of these pups...as their health problems are typical problems that we encounter... it is trying to get spots for them especially the ones in heat...

Thank you so much for all that you have done for these 6 little ones...I just saw their photos and they are precious....

We are making phone calls now to get some homes and maybe with Susan keeping two of them for two weeks that will help us be able to move them around...

Oh Kerri, this is such wonderful news.

I know how stressful this has become and truly wish we had the foster/transport/fund resources to assist and help with this rescue effort

If there's anything I can do from my computer or phone to help you, please don't hesitate to ask me.

Sending lots of prayers in the meantime

Just called Rescue Me Yorkies and if we can get them to New Jersey they would take the 2 in heat she will call tonight if they can find fosters and help with transport...
I called the rescue here in Maine and they only take dogs from LA?? Sad that the one in state deals only with out of state dogs and they are getting 16 in from there next week.
