#kscoThose soulful eyes are just saying, “Adopt me”. Arthur is a 9 year old, male, chow/pit bull mix. He came in with a bad case of flea infestation, and fly strike on his ears. We were able to treat him with flea medications, and his skin is looking a whole lot better, and his hair is slowly growing back. Arthur passed his evaluation with flying colors, and did well meeting a few calm dogs. He is a super sweet boy, who would love to find a happy home. Come check him out. Please share! Our shelter is located at 160 Hitchcock Road in Salinas. We are open Tuesday-Saturday, from 12-5:00. If you have any questions, please call our front desk at (831) 769-8850. Adoption price for dogs are $145. That includes their spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, first set of vaccines, deworming, flea treatment, and one year license (if applicable). ...

#ksco**WARNING - Graphic Photos!** - shared from Alsager Vets4Pets Sorry to share such graphic photos but this is something that’s really important to know about, the little dog below is extremely lucky to be alive! Pyometra should be the number one reason to spay your female dog. Aside from preventing unwanted litters. WHAT IS PYOMETRA? A Pyometra is an infection of the uterus and the word literally means ‘Pus in the Womb’. It is a secondary infection that occurs as a result of hormone changes in the females reproductive tract. When a dog is in season/heat, the white blood cells, which normally protect against infection, are inhibited from entering the uterus. If a pregnancy does not occur for several consecutive estrus cycles (season/heat), the uterine lining continues to increase in thickness until cysts often form within the tissues. This is known as ‘Cystic Endometrial Hyperplasia’. The thickened, cystic lining secretes fluids that create an ideal environment for bacteria to grow in. Additionally, high progesterone levels inhibit the ability of the muscles in the wall of the uterus to contract and expel accumulated fluids or bacteria. The combination of these factors often leads to infection. CLINICAL SIGNS * Fever * Thick, brownish discharge * Lethargy * Depression * Vomiting/Diarrhoea * Loss of appetite * Increased urination * Increased water consumption Pyometra usually occurs two to eight weeks after the last season/heat. Pyometra can affect any female dog at any age but is most common in older dogs. HOW CAN PYOMETRA BE TREATED? The surgical removal of the infected uterus. (Spay) Please feel free to share this post to raise awareness of the risk of not neutering and Pyometra! https://www.facebook.com/1019545981426938/posts/2032746786773514?sfns=mo ... See MoreSee Less

#ksco⭐️UPDATE, the dogs referenced in this story belong to Amy K. in California. The injuries have been verified and we posted the story as shared but protecting anonymity for her sake when dealing with her injured puppies. She has since posted her story and a fundraiser to help with her vet bills. Search Firestick Plant in Facebook to see more of their story and updates. Thank you Amy for alerting us all. WARNING. This plant is more available than ever as a unique house or garden plant. It is dangerous to pets and could also be to uninformed humans. This pet was chemically burned on 30% of his body by a plant! Yes a plant. This is what is called "Firestick succulent". When a piece is broken off the milky substance is extremely acidic and toxic to humans, dogs, and cats. The smaller sibling ingested it and is also ill with serious vomiting and lethargy. Update, the little one is up and eating a small amount, the larger dog is in severe pain and visiting vet often for wound care and medications. Euphorbia tirucalli 'Sticks on Fire' (Red Pencil Tree) - Comes in both red & green form. All euphorbias have a sap that can cause serious harm so use caution when dealing with them. Always wash your hands after handling Not a plant to have around animals. ... See MoreSee Less

The Humane Society of the United States
Dow AgroSciences is currently conducting a one-year pesticides test on 36 beagles! This cruel and unnecessary testing includes the force-feeding of pesticides to the dogs, who are otherwise caged. We must act fast as the dogs who don’t die from the toxicity test will be euthanized! Please sign the petition now: https://hsus.link/3327e6 ... See MoreSee Less

This petition is only for American citizens WTF 😡‼️

NOOOO

No - what is wrong with us! We let our animals be tested on so that we can create pesticides that won't harm us - yet, we import vegetables, fruits, etc from other COUNTRIES. If you think that they all come from farms that are going by the regulations set up by the U. S. - think again!

A great save! #kscoEarly Tuesday morning, local resident Steve Cooper found a dead female opossum in his yard. Four live babies were lying next to their mother, and Steve removed another four live babies from her pouch. With Google's help, he located Native Animal Rescue. At 8:00 AM, Steve arrived at Native Animal Rescue’s doorstep with the eight hungry babies on a warm towel in a box. All eight babies are thriving. We feed them a special opossum formula every three hours between 8:00 AM and 11:00 PM. At this age, about two to three months old, baby opossums are tube fed to simulate how they feed in their mother’s pouch. Congratulations to Steve for doing all the right things to save these opossum babies: check pouch, place babies on a warm towel in a box, bring babies to NAR. ... See MoreSee Less
