Zach’s Pet Mole

Zach is one of those non confrontational introverted types so he stays away from everything that scares him. He’ll bark and growl and shake off the stress but he won’t come after you unless you are a squirrel or a ball. Hence it came as no suprise to us that, even though his hills were […]

10 Tricks To Get Your Dog To Sleep Better At Night

My 2 year old puppy Zach wasn’t sleeping through the night after we decided to ween him off sleeping with us. At 65 lbs of pure lean muscle, his doggy nightmares were resulting in bruises and scratches that couldn’t be avoided as long as he shared our king sized bed. He didn’t like sleeping in […]

Zach and the Big C

A few weeks ago Rescue Pup revealed to Zach’s followers that one of his tests came back as inconclusive for malignant mast cell tumor cancer.  This means that a biopsy must be performed to validate if in fact it is MCT and how severe his condition may be. While we all decide how to proceed […]

Foster Fail Fail!

Read that title again. There are two fails. Yes. Two. In rescue, foster parents that end up adopting the animal they are taking care of are considered a foster failure or foster fail. When we opened our home and hearts to Zach on December 2015 our plan was to become a part of this awesome […]
