Watch out! It's a MOOSE!

Moose is very much excited, well as excited as he can be,
about finding his forever home!!


It's gotta be around here somewhere...


But first he has to go herd these dogs.

Rusty...can you tell me how you found your awesome adopters?


Didge, I don't mind that you bark so much since you let me follow you around!
Also, you are about my size, so I can't be that much of an actual moose...can I?



Hmmm, I think I'll give Flicka space because she's intense,
but I'll herd her from afar because she's speedy
and it is fun for me to try to keep up.



And then he'll most likely need a nap
on his favorite spot on the couch.

Wouldn't you like to join me??



Check out Moose's full bio, as well as all the other available dogs,

Spryte Post-surgery Update

Spryte is back home!
The surgery went well; both the enucleation and spay.



Apparently she was very sneaky
and pulled her catheter out as soon as she woke up
and then went to work on her stitches.


We are thinking that she is related to NaughtyDogTed.


This earned her a cone immediately
and she is to wear it at all times for 2 weeks.


Spryte is NOT happy about this.



Frankly, neither is her foster mom. :-)

Let's hope for a speedy two weeks and quick recovery
and TONS of stuffed kongs in the meantime.

Spryte!



Spryte is a puppy mill survivor that arrived in rescue on April 17th.


Over the past few weeks she has made huge progress in coming out of her shell and slowly making canine friends and trusting humans. She still has a long way to go but she is on the right track.


Spryte is enjoying the great outdoors and is much more excited to explore new places and less nervous when she is with her foster brother and sisters.




Spryte only has one eye. Her foster mom has taken her to an Ophthalmologist who thinks that Spryte probably lost her right eye due to an injury or puncture. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the eye socket that can be saved, so an enucleation of what remains of her right eye has been recommended.


The estimated cost is $1,700.


NEBCR is able to cover the cost of this surgery, as well as any other veterinary services our foster dogs require, through the continued donations received from our many generous supporters!

With the completion of this surgery and followup, Spryte will have a pain-free life and her future adopters will not have to worry about eye infections.

Please visit www.nebcr.org if you can make a donation
to help Spryte and the many border collies that NEBCR rescues.

Check back again soon for updates on Spryte as she heals up and prepares to find her forever home!

Meet Lucy

Hi! My name is Lucy. I am one of the 9 dogs pulled from a recent puppy mill bust, and will be up on the website soon for adoption. I am so full of energy and I am just bursting with the thought of having a family of my own!

I am ready to hit those trails with you! Summer is almost here, let's get in shape together!
