Fur Babies Corner: The Danger of Ticks

April 14th, 2016

CEO

By Cyndi Crossland

Ticks started attaching to our K-9 friends early this year, probably due to our mild winter. Several of our human friends have found them attached to them already. It only takes one tick bite to infect your dog; some ticks can carry more than one disease.
In rescue we see a lot of flea and tick infestation. Some are so bad the dog is very ill. Ehrlichlosis is common in dogs we rescue. It is transmitted by the common brown dog tick. The symptoms of Ehrlichlosis may not be obvious, if left untreated it can become a chronic infection. The dogs we have encountered with this disease are usually very underweight and experiencing nose bleeds.

CEO

Fur Babies Press Release

We would like for everyone to meet Penny. She is a 2 year old lab mix, she is spayed, up to date on her shots and microchipped. Penny lived on the streets of Tulsa for a while until her homeless owner could no longer care for her. The volunteers with “Feeding the pets of Tulsa’s homeless” all knew Penny and knew she was a good girl that deserved a good home. One of those volunteers had been in contact with the volunteers at Fur Babies Adoptions, together they were able to get Penny to a foster home in the Muskogee area. Penny needs a home of her own, her foster home has several other dogs Penny has done well with all of them except a dominant Chihuahua, so probably no small dogs in her home would be best.

Fur Babies Corner: Why Microchip My Pet?

April 11th, 2016

CEO

By Delsie Lewis

A microchip is small about the size of a grain of rice. The chip is injected just under the skin of your pet, right below the collar between the shoulder blades. The injection is the same as getting a vaccination. The chip holds a very important number that is unique to your pet. When you have your pet microchipped you have to go to the manufacturer and register the chip in your name and address. You must keep this information updated if you want to be notified when your pet is found. No it will not track your pet for you. If your pet is lost for any reason, when found the pet is taken to a shelter or veterinarian and scanned with a wand.

We all have seen this on signs and advertisements. There are 1000’s of adorable mix breed and full blood animals in our shelters that need homes. They are not broken, they are not sick, they need homes. That is where rescues come in to play. A rescue that is recognized by the IRS as a 501c3 nonprofit can go to the shelters and “pull” or take dogs that need homes. A good rescue will take the dog to a veterinarian for rabies shots then to a foster home until the animal is spayed or neutered. The rescue provides wormer and other vaccinations. Once all vetting is done the dog is available for adoption.

Near Death Experiences: Paranormal Phenomena or a Trick of The Mind?

April 10th, 2016

CEO

By Kristi O’Toole

We’ve all heard someone say, ‘My life flashed before my eyes’, almost always at the time of a traumatic experience. Let’s define traumatic. Perhaps a person is drowning but is rescued just in time, or you swerve your car away from danger at the last second. But what if a person isn’t that lucky? What if they can’t steer to safety and are involved in a horrific accident and could not live without intervention, or they’re not pulled from the water in time and need resuscitation? That would be a near death experience.

Mega Riffs Vol. 5: “No More Tears”

April 10th, 2016

CEO

By Ian Murphy

Ok! Been away for a bit with the “Mega Riff” series. Now it’s back, and boy do we have a monster today: “No More Tears” by Ozzy Osbourne. The guitar player on this tune is none other than Zakk “I look like Odin with a guitar” Wylde. This one is special because not only does it contain the heaviest riff in Ozzy’s hallowed canon of songs, it also has an all time great solo. Wylde was the boy prodigy only a few short years prior to this 1991 classic when he debuted on 1988’s No Rest For the Wicked. The Z-Man was only 21 when that one came out and he gave us a taste of future mega riffs with songs like “Breaking All the Rules” and “Crazy Babies”. Having matured a bit since his debut, Wylde comes into his own on “No More Tears”. No longer a young gunslinger, Zakk has now earned “Guitar God” status.

Fur Babies Corner: Dealing with Heartworms in Dogs

April 10th, 2016

CEO

By Cyndi Crossland

Working in animal rescue we work with dogs who generally have not had veterinary care. These dogs are malnourished and sometimes very sick. Their medical care can sometimes use any spare funds the rescue has. One common disease we see in dogs is heartworms. This disease is brutal on dogs, and can quickly take their lives.

The heart of the dog actually fills with living worms. Worms that reproduce and quickly fill the heart and lungs, smothering the dog to death. The worms can break off and cause a “clot” in the main arteries and kill the dog at any given time.

Puerto Ricans in Paris Release Date: June 10, 2016 – Theatrical & VOD – Movie News

April 7th, 2016

CEO

Cast: Luis Guzman, Edgar Garcia, Alice Taglioni, Rosie Perez and Rosario Dawson
Directed by: Ian Edelman
Written by: Ian Edelman and Neel Shah
Genre: Comedy
Distributor: Focus World

“Puerto Ricans In Paris” is a story of friendship, loyalty and a life-changing trip to Paris. Detectives Luis Lopez and Eddie Garcia are childhood best friends, brother-in-laws, and partners in the New York Police Department Luxury Goods Recovery Unit tasked with hunting down Canal Street’s infamous bootleggers. With Luis as the slick, self-styled “brains” of the operation and Eddie as the shy, quiet “muscle,” they’ve been running through the streets of the Lower East side in search of fake Louis Vuitton for 20 years – long enough for them to be the best in the business.
While their work mostly keeps them below 14th Street, a random visit from a celebrated French designer and her business partner set in motion a sequence of events that take them on a wild goose chase through the streets of Paris – from fashion parties to hipster nightclubs – in search of a stolen handbag (and delicious French macarons).
