Meet the Dogs

Scupper

Fospice boy Scupper is really living it up! Yes, you read that right...fospice. Our friends at Muttville have a wonderful program for dogs with untreatable terminal illnesses. It is called fospice, a combination of foster and hospice. Fospice means taking a dog into a home and giving him palliative care, love and a wonderful life until he passes. 

Kara

Kara was only 8, but she fit the definition of a Thulani Dog – because their program helps the most vulnerable senior dogs and that is what she was. Kara T had the weight of the world on her, as well as a good-sized pendulant mammary tumor. Yet, she continued to share her happy-girl smile.

Puzon

This sweet, nine-year-old, long-haired Dachshund mix has had some drama in his life. In his younger years, Puzon was attacked by another dog who severed his esophagus, which has made it difficult for him to eat ever since. Then as a senior dog, the only family he’d ever known was moving and surrendered him to Anchorage Animal Care & Control instead of taking him along.

Pedro

Pedro is an approximately eight-year-old Shih Tzu mix that was found as a stray and placed in an area shelter. He was then transferred to Bob’s House for Dogs for medical care and fostering because he was clearly suffering long-term neglect.
