🚨 URGENT: BARU STILL NEEDS HIS FOREVER HOME 🚨

Please keep sharing. His family is out there somewhere. ❤️

Baru’s follow-up vet appointment after his tail amputation went AMAZING! His veterinary team was so excited to see him, and he was just as excited to see them. His tail is healing beautifully… even though Mr. Baru decided to remove some of his own stitches before they could. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

His foster family continues to tell us what an incredible dog he is.

❤️ Loves to cuddle
❤️ Loves sleeping under blankets
❤️ Wants to sleep ON TOP of his humans
❤️ Loves belly rubs and affection
❤️ Loves playing fetch and chasing balls
❤️ Listens well and responds to structure
❤️ Is goofy, loving, and full of personality

Most importantly, he is continuing to decompress and settle in.

And that’s something we really need potential adopters to understand.

DECOMPRESSION IS REAL.

Dogs do not come into a new home perfectly adjusted overnight. They need time, patience, structure, reassurance, and consistency. Baru has already been through multiple transitions, and sadly, he will need to go through one more when he finds his forever family.

That doesn’t mean he isn’t a great dog.

It means he’s a dog with feelings who needs time to feel safe.

His amazing foster family has done an incredible job helping him learn that the world isn’t so scary. We’ve watched him become more relaxed, more confident, and more comfortable every week.

Now it’s time to find the family that will be his last stop.

While Baru enjoys other dogs, we would absolutely consider him as someone’s one-and-only best friend. Give this boy a ball to chase, a couch to cuddle on, a warm bed, and a human to love, and he’ll be the happiest dog in the world.

Please help us find the forever family this sweet boy deserves.

🚨 STILL WAITING… BARU NEEDS HIS FOREVER FAMILY 🚨

Every day that passes, Baru settles in a little more.

Every day, he trusts a little more.

Every day, he shows us more of the dog he was always meant to be. ❤️

And every day, our hearts break a little knowing that he still doesn’t have a place to call his own.

We are beyond grateful for his incredible emergency foster family. They have given him patience, structure, understanding, and love during one of the most difficult transitions of his life. But emergency foster care was never meant to be permanent. Baru deserves a family that is HIS.

A family where he never has to wonder where he’s sleeping next.

A family where he can finally exhale.

A family where he can stop surviving and simply start living.

The updates from foster continue to be amazing:

🐾 He absolutely LOVES people.
🐾 He wants to sleep under the blankets and as close to his humans as possible.
🐾 Half the time he tries to sleep directly ON TOP of them.
🐾 He loves belly rubs, cuddles, and being included in everything.
🐾 He is playful, goofy, and full of personality.
🐾 Fetch is one of his favorite games and a great way to burn energy.
🐾 He is listening well, learning routines, and thriving with consistency.
🐾 He is healing nicely from his surgery.

One thing we wish more people understood is that decompression is real.

Dogs coming from stressful situations don’t arrive perfectly adjusted. They need time. They need guidance. They need reassurance. They need someone willing to see who they are underneath the stress.

Baru has already shown tremendous growth simply because someone gave him that chance.

As much as he enjoys other dogs, we would absolutely consider him as someone’s one-and-only best friend. Give this boy his toys, his ball, a comfy couch, a warm bed, and a human to love, and he will be in heaven.

He doesn’t need perfection.

He needs commitment.

He needs stability.

He needs someone willing to say:

“You’re home now.”

Please continue sharing Baru everywhere. His family is out there somewhere, and we refuse to stop until we find them.

❤️ This boy deserves the world. Let’s help him find it.

🚨 PLEASE KEEP SHARING — BARU STILL NEEDS HIS FOREVER HOME 🚨

Baru is STILL searching for the home he deserves. While we are incredibly thankful for his amazing emergency foster family, we truly want this boy to finally settle into his forever home so he can fully decompress and stop being bounced around. 💔

The updates from his foster have honestly been incredible. ❤️

🐾 Baru LOVES his humans.
🐾 He wants to sleep ON you, under the blankets, and snuggle as close as physically possible.
🐾 He is goofy, affectionate, playful, and so eager to love and be loved.
🐾 He absolutely LOVES fetch and playing ball — it’s one of his favorite things and a great outlet for his energy.
🐾 He gets adorable zoomies and has the funniest personality.
🐾 He listens well to commands and is responding beautifully to structure and guidance.
🐾 He’s healing nicely from his tail amputation surgery.

Also something VERY important that people often fail to understand about rescue dogs:

✨ DECOMPRESSION IS REAL. ✨

Dogs are not robots. Even professionally trained dogs will not walk into a new home perfectly adjusted overnight. They have feelings, fears, stress, insecurities, and trauma just like humans do. Baru came from chaos, instability, and constant stress. In the beginning, he was clearly on edge and protective over toys and food because he was scared and unsure.

Now that he’s settling in and realizing he is SAFE, those behaviors are already improving tremendously. He has been sharing toys more appropriately, playing nicely with the foster dogs, responding to corrections, and becoming more relaxed every single day.

At this point, while Baru truly does love other dogs, we honestly would not mind him being someone’s one-and-only best friend either. A home where he gets:
❤️ ALL the toys
❤️ ALL the belly rubs
❤️ ALL the cuddles
❤️ ALL the reassurance and love

…might honestly be exactly what this boy needs.

He thrives with:
✔️ Structure
✔️ Guidance
✔️ Patience
✔️ Calm leadership
✔️ Consistency
✔️ Love

This dog deserves the BEST home in the world. Truly. He has been through so much and still continues to love with his whole heart.

Please continue sharing Baru far and wide until we find his people. 🙏❤️

🚨 BARU STILL NEEDS HIS FOREVER HOME 🚨
Please keep sharing this sweet boy far and wide. 💔

While we are incredibly thankful that Baru is currently safe in an AMAZING emergency foster home, this is still only temporary. What this boy truly needs is stability, consistency, and a forever family so he can finally decompress for the LAST time and just be a dog. 🥺

The good news?
❤️ Baru is healing nicely from his tail amputation surgery.
❤️ He is settling in well in foster care.
❤️ He absolutely LOVES people and wants nothing more than to cuddle, snuggle under blankets, and be in your lap.
❤️ He has been playful, affectionate, goofy, and incredibly loving.

His foster family has been wonderful working with him and learning his needs. Like many dogs who have experienced stress, instability, and constant transitions, Baru has shown some protectiveness over food (only with dogs- not humans) while decompressing. His foster parents are doing an amazing job with structure and working through some of these quirky things. Because of this, we are looking for a home that understands structure, management, and setting dogs up for success — NOT punishment.

Honestly, a lot of what we are seeing feels rooted in insecurity and overstimulation from everything this poor boy has been through. Every single move and life change has forced him to stay in survival mode instead of truly relaxing and feeling safe.

Despite all of that, Baru continues to show us over and over again what a GOOD dog he is. ❤️

He plays nicely outside, loves affection, listens well with guidance, and just wants connection and acceptance. He would thrive in a home willing to provide:
✔️ Structure
✔️ Clear boundaries
✔️ Proper introductions
✔️ Patience while he decompresses
✔️ Lots of love and cuddles

At this point, we truly want to avoid continuing to bounce him around. The longer he stays in limbo, the harder it becomes for him emotionally. He deserves permanence. He deserves peace. He deserves HIS people.

📍Please continue sharing Baru everywhere.
📍We are actively searching for the RIGHT forever fit.
📍Let’s finally give this boy the happy ending he deserves. 🙏❤️

🚨 URGENT: BARU NEEDS HIS FOREVER HOME 🚨

Thankfully, we were able to find an AMAZING emergency foster family for Baru — a family who actually adopted from us years ago and stepped up immediately when he needed help most. But this is only temporary. Baru STILL desperately needs a forever home ASAP. 💔

Today, Baru underwent his tail amputation surgery and is now safely home resting and decompressing in his emergency foster home. Poor boy was scared, nervous, and exhausted after everything he’s been through, but despite all of it… he continues to show us what a truly sweet soul he is. 🥺

Here’s what his foster family has shared so far:

❤️ He is doing AMAZING with their dogs and has been extremely respectful of their boundaries.
❤️ Playtime has been gentle, appropriate, and calm — not rough or chaotic.
❤️ No food aggression has been noticed at all.
❤️ He LOVES to cuddle and be as close to his humans as possible. He truly thinks he’s a lap dog.
❤️ He sleeps under blankets and just wants to snuggle and feel safe.
❤️ Even when corrected by the other dogs, he backs off appropriately and listens well.
❤️ He’s goofy, loving, affectionate, and just wants acceptance and stability.

Baru does have some puppy energy, but nothing over the top. What he truly needs is a structured, calm, loving environment where he no longer feels anxious or like he has to protect himself. We genuinely believe this boy has simply been through too much instability and stress and finally hit a breaking point trying to defend himself in previous situations.

The hardest part right now is that we CANNOT continue transitioning him from home to home. That is not fair to him. Every move adds more stress and confusion for this poor boy when all he wants is consistency, love, and safety.

Please — if you have ever considered adopting, THIS is the dog to give a chance to. He deserves a real family and a soft place to land. 🙏

📍Please share Baru far and wide.
📍Potential adopters encouraged to reach out immediately.
📍Let’s find this sweet boy the forever home he deserves. ❤️

🚨🚨 911 FOR BARU 🚨🚨

We are absolutely heartbroken making this post.

Baru’s adopter is unfortunately no longer able to keep him, and now this sweet boy has NO PLACE TO GO. 💔

To make matters even more difficult:
• Baru goes in for his tail amputation surgery THIS WEDNESDAY
• His trainer is completely full
• I am personally leaving town for two weeks on Monday.
• We have exhausted every immediate option we currently have

This means Baru urgently needs a foster, adopter, or safe decompression home ASAP — especially while recovering from surgery.

After everything this boy has been through — the training, medical care, constant changes, and now surgery — we cannot imagine him being shuffled around yet again without stability and a soft place to land.

And despite ALL of this… Baru is truly an amazing dog. ❤️

He is:
🐾 Loving
🐾 Affectionate
🐾 Hilarious
🐾 Loyal
🐾 A giant lap dog who truly just wants to be near his people

What Baru really needs right now:
• A calm, structured, low-chaos home
• Someone willing to give him time to decompress
• A patient human who will let him settle in and heal
• A safe place where he can focus on recovery and simply being loved

This boy deserves consistency. He deserves comfort. He deserves his happy ending.

PLEASE help us network for him. Share this everywhere. We are in a very urgent situation and do not want to fail this boy after everything he has overcome.

If you can foster, adopt, or seriously help in any way, please message us immediately.

Please don’t let Baru have nowhere to go after surgery. ❤️

NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS WILL BE TOLERATED!

🚨🚨🚨 911 EMERGENCY FOR BARU 🚨🚨🚨
⚠️ Graphic medical photos attached — viewer discretion advised.

We are officially SEVEN DAYS away from Baru’s tail amputation surgery, and we desperately need help.

We NEED to know that we have enough funds to cover this surgery before the 20th.

WE STILL NEED TO RAISE $431.54 TO REACH HIS $657 GOAL.

💔 Baru’s tail continues to split open
💔 He is on antibiotics and pain medication just to keep things under control until surgery
💔 This WILL NOT heal on its own
💔 His tail MUST be amputated for his quality of life and comfort

This was a completely unforeseen medical expense.

As many of you know, we have taken on multiple severe medical and behavioral cases recently — including dogs with major behavioral rehabilitation needs, heartworm treatment, extensive vetting, and professional training.

One case alone has already cost us approximately $2,500 between training, medical care, and heartworm treatment… and that doesn’t even include the ongoing medical costs for the other dogs currently in our care.

We are trying. We are fighting. But we cannot do this alone.

And through ALL of this… Baru is doing AMAZING. ❤️

He has worked so hard. He has transformed so much. He has found a forever family that absolutely adores him. But before he can officially start his forever life, we HAVE to get him through this surgery.

THIS IS AN ALL HANDS ON DECK MOMENT.

🚨🚨 URGENT UPDATE FOR BARU 🚨🚨
⚠️ Graphic tail photos attached — viewer discretion advised.

First and foremost, THANK YOU. ❤️
Because of your generosity, we have now raised $225.46 toward Baru’s medically necessary tail amputation.

BUT WE STILL NEED TO RAISE $431.54 TO REACH HIS $657 GOAL.

Time is running out.

💔 Baru’s tail continues to reopen
💔 He is currently on antibiotics and pain medication to keep infection and pain under control
💔 This WILL NOT heal on its own
💔 His partial tail amputation is scheduled for the 20th
💔 We NEED these funds raised before surgery

This is not cosmetic. This is necessary for Baru to live comfortably and safely moving forward.

The good news?
BARU IS DOING AMAZING. ❤️

He has come SO far through training, structure, healing, and learning how to simply be a dog. And the BEST part… he has found a forever family that absolutely loves him.

Now we just need to get him through this final medical hurdle so he can officially begin the next chapter of his life pain-free.

Please help us get there.

🚨🚨 VERY URGENT UPDATE FOR BARU 🚨🚨
⚠️ Graphic photos attached — viewer discretion advised.

First and foremost… THANK YOU. ❤️
Because of your kindness, we have raised $172 so far for Baru’s emergency tail amputation.

BUT… we still need to raise $485 to reach the high end of his surgical estimate of $657.

This is EXTREMELY urgent.

💔 Baru’s tail has broken open AGAIN
💔 He is currently on antibiotics and pain medication just to keep the infection and pain under control until surgery
💔 This WILL NOT heal on its own
💔 His amputation is scheduled for the 20th, and we NEED to have the funds together

This is not cosmetic.
This is medically necessary for his quality of life.

As many of you know, Baru has already overcome so much. We were so grateful to be able to give him the opportunity to go through board and train and finally learn what stability, structure, and love look like… and now he has FOUND HIS FOREVER FAMILY. ❤️

But before he can officially begin this beautiful next chapter, we have to get him through this surgery.

Please help us get this sweet boy across the finish line.

WAYS TO DONATE:
🐾 Venmo: (charity)

🚨🚨 EXTREMELY URGENT FOR BARU 🚨🚨
⚠️ Graphic tail photos attached — viewer discretion advised.

We desperately need your help for BARU. ❤️

As of right now, we have only received $52 in donations (which we are so thankful for) toward his surgery, and his estimate is between $547–$657.

This was a completely unforeseen medical expense.

We were SO incredibly thankful to be able to put Baru through board and train and finally give him the opportunity and chance at life that he always deserved… but now we are facing another hurdle that we cannot overcome alone.

💔 Baru’s “happy tail” has continued to worsen
💔 It has NOT healed despite treatment efforts
💔 He now requires a PARTIAL TAIL AMPUTATION
💔 This is the only remaining option to stop the repeated injury, bleeding, and pain

The most amazing and heartbreaking part?
BARU HAS FOUND HIS FOREVER FAMILY. ❤️ (please see photo of him with his new brother and sister during their meet and greet)

He loves them. He loves his fur siblings. His future is RIGHT THERE waiting for him… but we need to get his tail taken care of before we can officially announce everything and finalize this next chapter for him.

Please help us get Baru to his forever home healthy, comfortable, and pain-free.
