#TastyTuesday with foster #Sheltie Fawn! 🦷 😬 Chewing can be helpful for a Sheltie with anxiety.

We adopt locally in the Twin Cities metro of MN due to volunteer constraints.

Our sweet 16yo foster #Sheltie Baylee Blu hasn’t been feeling well, but we’re happy to hear on this #MerleMonday that he’s doing better and is more active & interactive. 🐾 up for pain meds!

Baylee Blu is loved as a permanent foster in our longterm care program. 💜

When Genevieve feels overwhelmed, she goes to the forest and plays her triangle for the trees.

Our #TeamLostSheltiesMn’s setup may be helpful if your Sheltie is older, ill, not fond of booties or paw wax, or has sensitive paws.🐾

A smaller fenced area w/in the fenced yard with washable/old rugs. I used straw with my girl when she had TCC; shoveled/replaced with each snowfall.❄️

I'm so very lucky Boomer is a huge fan of chicken flavored pill pockets. He acts like he's getting a treat twice a day.

Hi 👋🏼 I’m Sadie and I’m a pill-spitting expert. 💊 😏
It’s going to be a long 8 weeks of healing! ❤️‍🩹

Foster Sadie was discharged from the hospital today following surgery for the fractured humerus she sustained during the 14 days she was lost in Mora.

💞 We’ve told her how much you all care about her and she feels your love. 💞

*this interaction ended fine. Teddy is A LOT of dog in a tiny body and can be too pushy for some dogs.

I lost my last great aunt, today. She made me my first Lamb Chop doll. She's always been an active part of my life, even from states away. She was a world traveler, she loved everyone, she accepted everyone who came into her life. I'm gonna miss her.

Thank you for the healing love for Sadie! 💓 Surgery for the humerus fracture she sustained during the 2 weeks she was lost was successful but more complicated due to muscle contraction and bone callus. Sadie will stay overnight in ICU to ensure pain is well-managed, then 8 weeks of restriction. ❤️‍🩹

2:20 pupdate: surgery starting! ❤️‍🩹
❤️‍🩹 Our foster Sadie will have a bone plate to stabilize the humerus fracture.

Sadie was lost in Mora, MN for 2 weeks. After many flyers, signs, sightings, a harrowing leap off a bridge, and kind people who set out food to keep her in the area, Sadie was safely caught.

I can’t even take Pops for a walk without the puparazzi showing up. I’m glad it didn’t spook him when they took my picture.
