Yesterday we lost Quincy James Smith. His organs gave in and his battle with arthritis was greater than his body could manage. He was a wonderful, loving dog. His story is one of great despair from being thrown out at three days old on a highway to a wonderful pet and resident at One More Smith. We will miss him.

Welcome to our latest resident, Nate, a darling tabby and white FIV+ kitty…..presently at the vet’s awaiting his shots and neutering!

Silli and her nine puppies were rescued from the Caribbean island of Aruba during a horrific distemper outbreak. Silli and her pups were homeless; she had hidden them under a performance stage next to an island resort. Emaciated and barely able to nurse, she was hospitalized for three weeks with the puppies until she was deemed well enough to fly. Upon her arrival in the States, she was rushed to a veterinarian with a bad infection. A hysterectomy was performed and her life was saved. The heartworm she had has been reocurring and debilitating, making it necessary for Silli to remain a resident at One More Smith. Please consider sponsoring Silli today. Sponsor Silli

The story of Quincy James… On Christmas Eve seven years ago in a massive snow storm. We received a frantic call from a person who would not give her name. She said she that three puppies had been thrown out a moving car window on the LIE. The puppies came to her because two of the puppies where sold hours later to …a pet store she worked at. The third, a runt with a cleft pallet, was thrown in a garbage container in back of the store. She was the Store Manager and got our number and called us for help and in great secrecy fearing for her job. Quincy lives today with us and is special. He has water on the brain, a cleft pallet and three malformations of the spine. He learned to walk up stairs at two years old and has trouble stopping while he is running. We were told he would live 12 months. December 22, 2009 is his 7th birthday. He lives happily at “One More Smith”. True he is not unadoptable but he certainly showed everyone he deserved more than being thrown away.
