It's been a tough couple of weeks for us all here at Happy Doggo Land, but amidst the challenges and the emotional roller coaster, we've had some truly incredible things happen. We wanted to share a few recent updates on our amazing doggos and what they've been up to.

Our Fighters: The Long Road to Recovery

We've been holding our breath with a few of our brave pups who've needed some serious medical attention recently. 

• Tank went through a major operation, and we are so, so happy to report that it went well! He's back with us at Happy Doggo Land now, resting up and starting his recovery. He's not completely out of the woods just yet, but he's a fighter, and we are doing everything in our power to get him back on all four paws and feeling his best.
• Spock had us all on edge, but his operation and a much-needed blood transfusion saved his life. It's truly a miracle to see him back with us, his tail wagging and that happy-go-lucky wanderer spirit we all know and love back in full swing.
• Then there's the incredible Trooper, who survived a major operation to remove a rope from his stomach. This little warrior has shown us all what strength and resilience really mean, and we're so proud to say he's doing as well as can be expected.

New Beginnings: Paws on New Paths

The hardest part of our job is saying goodbye, but it's also the most rewarding. Watching our dogs find their forever homes, far away from their difficult pasts, is a feeling that never gets old.

• Get your tissues ready! Our sweet Panda has embarked on his epic adventure to his new home in Scotland. There were plenty of tears from the team (especially Earth!), but we're so happy knowing he's going to an amazing life where he'll be so incredibly happy.
• Bianca is also packing her bags and heading to her new family in the USA. It's always hard to let them go, but seeing them leave for a new life, free from their past traumas, is the reason we do this work. The thought of them being safe and loved makes us smile every time.
• Our tiny, fluffy princess, Little Noodles, was officially put up for adoption last week! This little fluffball is going to find a family who will treat her like the royalty she is, and we can't wait to see her get the happy ending she deserves.

Healing Hearts and Happy Surprises

There have been so many little moments of joy and healing that remind us of the incredible progress our dogs are making.

• Our sweet Moolah is feeling much better! Her poor, raw skin is healing up beautifully, and her fur is already starting to grow back in. She's a testament to the power of love and good care.
• The best news of the week has to be about Al Pacino. It was confirmed that he doesn't have cancer—he's just a little bit on the chunky side! And to make things even better, he's becoming less of a grump and more of a total cuddle bug with the team. We love his newfound snuggly side!
• It's been so heartwarming to see the friendship that has blossomed between Bob and Bubbles. Bubbles has become Bob's constant companion, offering him so much support as he grieves. She's definitely been a ray of sunshine that's helping to cheer him up.
• And finally, a little update from afar: our beloved Maxi is really settling into his new life in Thailand! When he's not getting hour-long massages and having his teeth brushed, he's working on perfecting new sploot positions. He's truly living the good life, and we couldn't be happier for him.

Every single one of these happy endings is made possible because of your kindness and generosity. We're so thankful to have you as part of our Happy Doggo family. If you'd like to find out more about fundraising for Happy Doggo, head to our Fundriasing pages.
