Mom Survives Rattlesnake Bite and Gives Birth Shortly After
Molly is a one-year-old cattle dog mix. She was homeless and heavily pregnant when bit by a rattlesnake outside of Phoenix, Arizona. Thankfully, she was taken in by a local emergency vet and given an antivenom before being transported to the Arizona Humane Society. 

By the time the AHS emergency team showed up, she had already started giving birth and had three puppies. They took her and the three pups to the hospital, and she gave birth to two more puppies on the way. Once they all arrived safely at the hospital, she pushed out the last two. A snakebite and seven births in one day is quite a lot for one dog, but Molly was incredibly brave and strong. She's still a bit wary of people, but getting more comfortable with the AHS team daily. Molly and her minions will be available for adoption once cleared.

TV Personality Uses Jewelry to Help Save Dogs
Allyson Spellman is a TV personality on Jewelry TV (JTV.) She uses her platform to feature adoptable, homeless animals located at the Young-Williams Animal Center in Tennessee alongside animal-themed jewelry. These jewelry items start conversations, and viewers love contacting Allyson to share stories and pictures of their pups. 

By hosting this weekly live stream, Allyson is able to combine her passions. The show features three or four animals that viewers can adopt, plus they share perks, like waived rescue fees and fun jewelry giveaways. The show, Jewelry to the Rescue, has even won a Telly Award, and adoption numbers are up thanks to her hard work.

Ways To Help Your Dog if They Are Vomiting
Dogs get upset stomachs for many different reasons, but it can be distressing for owners and the pups. The best thing to first do is to figure out what is causing the vomiting. Document any changes in your dog's demeanor, eating habits, or energy levels. The more information you can give your vet, the better.

Common causes for vomiting in dogs:
  • Infectious diseases such as parvovirus or distemper.
  • Intestinal parasites.
  • Food allergies or intolerances.
  • Certain medications.
  • Stress or anxiety.
  • Motion sickness.
  • Eating foreign objects or toxins.
Your vet may prescribe medications or other treatments. It's also good to help with supportive care. This can help keep your pup comfortable while their body is recovering. Here are a few simple things you can do to help them:
  1. Offer small amounts of water. Try to help keep them hydrated. 
  2. Administer medications as directed.
  3. Provide bland foods. Using boiled chicken and rice can help settle a pup's stomach. Keep the meals smaller and more often. Avoid anything that might aggravate their stomach.
  4. Monitor your dog closely. Write down any changes in appetite or behavior to report back to your vet.
  5. Keep in contact with your vet. It's important to get medical advice from a professional and follow up if the situation is not improving. Dogs may need fluids or additional medical supervision.
