This is Dena. She was diagnosed with Valley Fever, a fungal infection that has no cure but can be managed with lifelong treatment. Thanks to your support of our merch, @15outof10.org was able to cover her $12,000 care. After 2 months of treatment she's shown improvement, and she's been adopted ❤️‍🩹

Dena is now on the ground again receiving medical attention from two humans. a photo of Dena and two humans who are crouched down happily behind her.

In the first few days I just saw with her and watched her sleep for 23.5 hours a day.

Look at her today. My heart could explode with happiness for her ❤️

This is Brenda and Linda. They were brought into the shelter together, and Brenda had no interest in being separated from her friend. She jumped the kennel wall to get to Linda, and made sure everyone knew they're a package deal. The best news? It worked: They were adopted together. 14/10 for both

Okay. Our foster dog, The Professor (shelter name Bean), is up for adoption. He's cute as hell. Love having him around. He's in the office with me now. He's fun, weird, and very affectionate.
He IS a puppy, mind you. So he requires work, time, patience, and care.
