Jonah & Jules

UPDATE 6/18/2011
One year after their coming to us from the Memphis Animal Shelter, just look at them.  They are happy and active and have slimmed down.  They still have a few more pounds lift to go, but what a difference.

   

                 Jules 74 pounds                                        Jonah 96 pounds

UPDATE 2/17/2011
Jonah and Jules are doing really well.  Both have lost about 30 pounds and are beginning to show those nice figures.  They are so much more active than they were and are walking each day and playing with their foster mom.  They are truly a miracle before our eyes.  While both were heartworm positive, Jules has tested negative at her last visit, so we are hoping that Jonah will do the same next time.  They are on the protocol of Doxycycline and Advantage Multi.  Both are happy and loving life.  We will keep you posted on their progress.  Just look at how fabulous they look.

UPDATE FROM CAMP
Jonah & Jules had to go visit another foster home while there regular foster Mom underwent back surgery. (She is recuperating just fine and will get them back before too long).  In the meantime this pair is living on a farm with donkeys and several other Goldens.  They are getting lots of exercise in the yard keeping up with all of their new friends.  Julies likes to sleep in in the mornings but Jonah is up with the rest of the gang at 6:30.  They are such a sweet pair and definitely "attached" at the hip.  Enjoy the following pictures from camp.

UPDATE 8/3/2010
Jonah & Jules made their first trip back to CPH (our clinic) for a weight check and to visit their old frien at CPH where they were welcomed by a large group of friends.  They are losing weight and are doing well.  Dr. Mangum was very impressed with the care that Amanda has given them.  Thank you Amanda.


Elaine and Chelsey welcome Jonah and Jules

 
Everyone was so happy to see them and give them big hugs


Jonah was happy to have his picture made on the scales, but Jules, being a true female did not want her picture taking on the scales.  She says a lady's weight is a private matter.

UPDATE 7/18/2010
Jonah and Jules have gone to their foster home and they are just doing great.  Foster Mom, Amanda, reports that they seem to be adapting well.  The like their beds.  Jonah likes tennis balls.  He likes for Amanda to throw them and he gets them and brings them back.  He even takes his tennis ball to bed with him sometime.  These 2 are enjoying having love and being inside a comfortable house where they are no in the elements.  More as the continue with their weight loss program so that they can be treated for their nasty heartworms.  They are going to be so beautiful - just wait and see!!

INTAKE REPORT 6/28/2010
The uncaring owners dropped these 2 off at a local high kill shelter not caring what happened to them.  They were in terrible condition.  Both obese to the point that they can hardly walk.  Their fur was so matted and full of mildew that they had to be shaved.  They came to us so depressed, but slowly with the wonderful care that our doctors and staff are giving them, they are starting to believe that life might get better.  They have a long haul ahead of them including treatment for heartworms.  That can't be done for a long while until they have lost weight and are in better health.  They are only 10 years old, and are going to be absolutely gorgeous when they are brought back to health.  In no time they will be as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside. MAGRR is going to do everything thing to keep them together.
