Back in February, we rescued Zus off the streets. She is about 2 years old, loves attention, and is very playful. When you give her a scratch behind the ear or a kiss on the forehead, she looks at you with the most loving, trusting eyes and gives you the softest little kisses in return ? We know that there’s someone out there who will adopt this sweet girl into their family ― we just need some help to find that special person!

? Turning a blind eye is not something that we're good at. Even though we're stretching capacity as it is, and some of our dedicated volunteers are leaving the island due to the pandemic, we couldn't possibly say 'no' to helping Baya.
? So we did what had to be done and we rescued this sweet but oh-so skinny girl off the streets. We received a plea for help from Brigitte, or as we call her, Baya's guardian angel. Weighing only 11.5 kilos, we don't know how much longer Baya would have been able to survive on her own. Baya is not only malnourished, she was covered in thousands of fleas and is running a very high fever.
? We rushed Baya to our vet who gave her Doxycylcine, Nandrosol, Dexamethason, and Nexgard Spectra ― adding even more costs to our ever rising vet bill. Baya is very weak, but with time, patience, and understanding we are hopeful that she will blossom into a healthy and happy pet. We will be updating you along her journey to recovery.
Do you want to help support Baya's recovery process? Donations are so very welcome:

? Everybody buckle up for yet another sad story... Sweet Annie was found by tourists visiting the island; emaciated, malnourished, and in need of help. Our recent rescues have pushed us well over our limit, and we are slammed full, but we couldn’t possibly not help.
? The vet said we were lucky we got her when we did because she might not have survived another night. Annie had been so deprived of food and water that she had to be put on a drip for dehydration immediately. She was so weak after being taken in she had to eat while lying down. Her temperature is worrying and she’s currently fighting for her life. We’re hoping that she will pull through, and we’ll do everything in our power to make that happen.
?? Annie’s condition will require a lot of vetting and it will be a huge financial burden for a small group of volunteers like ours. If you’d consider helping us help Annie, we would be forever grateful. To donate please use one of the following methods:

? UPDATE: It's been a while since we last posted about Emma and we know that many of you are waiting for an update. Well, we have a lot of catching up to do.
? Due to unknown reasons, Emma has contracted a severe bacterial infection in her leg. We suspect she has an old bite wound that got infected, despite her taking daily antibiotics. The tissue on a large part of her paw has died. We don’t want to compromise this poor girl's health any further, so we're going to follow our vet's advice and will probably have to have her leg amputated when she has gained more of her strength. We now this may sound like bad news, but we know from experience that three-legged dogs can live long, happy, healthy lives. We've seen it before and we are confident that Emma will not be an exception.
? On a more positive note, Emma had full bloodwork done and the results are looking good. She does not have heart worm disease, which is very, very good news. She has also gained some weight, is clearly feeling more energetic, and has become very affectionate and cuddly. She is still far from being 100%, but she is certainly on the right path and has an amazing support system right behind her every step of the way. Her awesome foster and the staff at Claus Clinic have been more than amazing and the key components to making little Emma keep pushing to better herself.
❤️ Please send all the good vibes her way and if you would like to contribute to her care, please feel free to visit www.carfdogrescue.com/donate-carf to check out our different donation options. You go Emma!

? Well, these pictures are not pretty but they give you an idea of what we deal with in rescue. This 5,5-month old puppy was found earlier this week in Soto. We suspect he was hit by a car, and then just left to die. We've named him Timber. Nobody knows how long Timber was there ― alone, on the side of the road, in excruciating pain. Nobody knows how many people drove by and simply pretended not to see him.
? But fortunately for this guy, help came eventually. Our vet confirmed that his leg injury was already a few days old when Timber was brought in. The puppy underwent surgery and is now recovering at one of our foster homes.
❤️ As many of you know, our vet bill is already sky high, and these extra costs were not budgeted. If you can give anything, even a dollar or two, we would appreciate it. We'll keep you posted on how Timber is doing. Thank you!

? UPDATE 3: Thank you all for your patience, we know that many of you are eagerly waiting for good news regarding Emma.
? We didn't get around to posting anything yesterday, because the day didn’t start off that well. We had to rush Emma back to our vet because her condition seemed to be worsening. She's had another drip and her medications have been adjusted. She is still very frail but she’s fighting for her life with all her might. She seems to be less alert. This morning, she has been drinking well, so at least there is that. We're hoping that her appetite will improve soon.
?? Together with our vet, we are doing absolutely everything in our power to help her pull through. We’ll try to post another update about Emma as soon as we can. Please keep Emma in your thoughts and THANK YOU for your concern, your support, and your donations.

? UPDATE 2: Emma is drinking and eating little amounts with support. It might seem small but we consider it a milestone. The poor girl weighs barely 6 kilos and has clear neurological damage. She physically cannot move herself yet without support from our volunteers.
? We sit with her and wonder how long she has been in this pain. And we can’t get ourselves to think about how much longer she could have possibly lasted out there. We try to stay positive and focus on the fact that someone did see her and did ask for help!
? We really appreciate everyone’s donations and well wishes. We’ll try to respond to all of the comments and messages but we find ourselves without sufficient time to answer them all. We will post regular updates about Emma as we know many of you care!

? UPDATE: By some miracle little Emma has made it through the night. She is still extremely weak and fighting for her life. Please keep Emma in your thoughts as her condition remains critical. She has shown that she wants to live, and our volunteers, together with our veterinary team, are doing their utmost best to make that happen!
?? We do not have the funds to pay for her urgent care. With a vet bill already very high and our lovely vets doing all they can, we really need some angels to help us continue what we do.

? No words can describe the suffering of this poor dog. Earlier today she was spotted at the parking lot of The Emma Church in Rio Canario; severely emaciated, extremely weakened, and totally helpless. We received a plea for help and went out to find her. She is so thin, so frail, so fragile. It looks like she could be knocked over by the wind. We’ve named her Emma.
? Emma is currently on a drip and receiving veterinary care. We're not sure yet if she is going to make it but we are determined to save her life and will do everything within our power to help.
?? Please share Emma’s story, and if you can make a donation towards her emergency care, PLEASE do so:

We have received a very generous donation from our supporter Kelly, in honor of her grandma Florence Paige. Thank you SO MUCH. We are so grateful for your support and the support of your friends!

Dear friends and fellow dog lovers. Please join us in wishing a 'Happy Birthday'...
Dear friends and fellow dog lovers. Please join us in wishing a 'Happy Birthday' to Sheila, the founder and driving force behind CARF. Though she prefers to work behind the scenes, we just have to shine a spotlight on this all-star for her birthday! ?
CARF was founded in 2008, but Sheila has been rescuing and re-homing dogs well before our non-profit's official founding date. She still works tirelessly day and night to take care of our CARFIES. She's never fully off duty and gives up so much of her time to make Curaçao a better place for the dogs that live here ??
Sheila is the type of person that never puts herself in the spotlight (we had to twist her arm to let us post this ?), but always makes everything about our dogs. Through her quiet and passionate dedication she has saved the lives of hundreds of abused, abandoned and homeless animals. Sheila is just an amazing lady who deserves great credit for all the hard work she does ?
? Please take a moment of your day to wish Sheila a happy birthday! You can also show your support by making a birthday donation at https://tikkie.me/pay/ub1klcfsakt9ccfl40rc, MCB 21199501, or www.carfdogrescue.com/donate-carf ― of course, all donations will go toward the care, treatment and rehoming of our dogs! #DogRescueCuracao #FosteringSecondChancesSince2008
