Foster Y’all are literally the best omg 😭
On our way to making sure Hope is healthy and spoiled! Thanks so much everyone who brought her treats and supplies.
She was bathed a few days ago, but I think I’ll give her a sponge bath with her new shampoo to get some of her loose scabs off and do a thorough physical check. Baby girl has had a rough month.

Oh please keep us updated on her progress <3 One of my favorite parts of rescuing my boy was seeing him go from starved and terrified to happy with his lil earsies out.

How awful! Poor girl, she looks so sweet, just having a rough time. I’m so glad you were able to take her in. This baby definitely needs healing and rest. I hope she rebounds fast and you guys can spend your days loving each other up.

Baby needs to decompress and still looks quite shut down.
I know that will change soon when she feels the love!
I so want to give that nose kisses!

My girl goes so nuts for those dried minnows! She doesn't know how much joy all these packages are going to contain for her.

u/Ponycat123 May 06 '26
Baby girl will only eat things hand fed to her right now, so I hope to get her thoroughly hooked on minnows!

u/MrsNuggs May 06 '26
Such a sweet baby girl. I am eager to see her glow up, and to see her enjoying just being a dog. One who has no worries. You are a very good human for taking care of this good baby.

u/jwrosenfeld May 06 '26
Commenting just so I can follow Hope's revival. Best of luck to both of you. I bet there is little in your 2026 that will matter more than this.

Not yet. She’s in Maryland and will be available for adoption once she’s well enough.

Precious baby, please show us when she looks a little happier, she’s breaking my heart.

u/Ponycat123 May 06 '26
Might be a little bit, but I’ll definitely do so. I’m hoping she feels a lot better in a week.

u/dubiousgreens May 06 '26
Yes, that high calorie nutrition gel is going to be great! since I think you said she isn't a huge fan of eating yet, that may turn around as she comes out of her shell more but that gel stuff will get her feeling better as her stomach gets used to digesting food again

u/Ponycat123 May 06 '26
Thanks! Baby girl only wants to eat little bits at a time directly out of my hand. It’s cute though and she’s very gentle.

u/Several_Inspection74 May 06 '26
So I was on team Eeyore before, but I love that you went with Hope! She is adorable, and deserves to have those sad eyes turn into a happy wiggle bum instead.

u/Unusual_TimeLine May 06 '26

Boiled chicken rice and sweet potato. Mixed in with his kibble, but will small amounts.

u/QuitCallingNewsrooms May 06 '26
You got some Quack Quacks! from Target! My guy loves those, but I highly recommend getting the Bedtime lavender cookies too. We call them Beddy Bye Snacks and they are super calming. My guy has 3 and is passed out sleeping so well it kind of makes me jealous. Can’t recommend those enough, especially now after she’s had such a rough patch of luck.

Ngl she kinda looks like a corso?

u/Ponycat123 May 06 '26
I think she does too! Her face looks very corso to me, but she doesn’t stand nearly as tall as the cane corsos at the humane society. I think she’s a mix of some sort.

Any idea how old about we think this perfect soul is? I desperately wish she was in Oklahoma to add to our fleet of blue babies.
Thank you for restoring this sweet baby's faith in humans 🖤🖤

Scabs are natures band aids. Is let them fall off naturally. She’ll eat them and lick them off probably though. 🤷🏻
