Adopted!

Current Location: Lakewood, Texas
Adoption Date: September 27, 2020
Adopted by: Mike and Diana Gumbert
Latest Update:
This adoption post is going to be a little long but we have a lot of emotion in this one and it made me cry. Mike and Diana Gumbert from Lakewood, Texas have been long time clients of the Ranch for years and years. Their Boxer Buckley was the most special Boxer we have ever known. We love these people and we loved their dog. They moved away a few years back but still traveled many miles to bring Buckley to us to care for him from time to time.
They have followed the page for years as well. Mike said he stopped following the page after Buckley died but then one day he opened it back up and there was the story of Kylee in the ER with a towel in her intestines and needing to be rescued. They said they her sweet eyes spoke to them and they could sense Buckleys soul. They sent an email pretty quickly after that and when I saw it I told Laura the Gumberts have submitted an application for Kylee, there will be no other applications considered, this is her family…. case closed.
Today they came to take this sweet girl home, today is the one year anniversary of Buckley’s passing. Kylee is their Grandaughters name, you see there are no coincidences with things like this.
We couldn’t be happier for Mike and Diana and Kylee, we hear you Buckley and we loved you dearly and your mom and dad can and will love again thanks to you.
We wish all of them the best, we are so happy for you.
About Kylee:

As Joe Wolf checked into the ER Laura got a call from Dr Murray who was on duty asking if there was any way we could help this girl that was brought into the ER with an intestinal blockage, the assumption is a sock. The owners couldn’t help and she would lose her life.

Dr Murray said please help her and take her into your rescue she’s just the sweetest thing. How could we say no to that face?

Her expenses will be ours, will be yours, but she won’t be euthanized and we will get her taken to surgery to look for what’s causing the issue. My concern is how long has she been sick with this blockage as she looks pretty sick and very thin.

I will update when we know more about how she has done in surgery.

Kylee Self who is a flight nurse with Aerocare out of Lubbock TX. She had to reschedule her wedding and continued to work and fly with Covid patients throughout Texas.

UPDATE 8/28/2020

Kylee had her surgery and she did have a blockage but it wasn’t just a sock, instead it was an entire towel. She is very thin so I’m not sure if she ate the towel because she was hungry or she became thin because of the blockage. We will never know and it doesn’t matter now. What matters is that the surgery was successful and she will be feeling much better moving forward.

UPDATE 9/6/2020

Time to peek in on how skinny girl Kylee is doing. Once again she is another dog from the ER doctors who called to see if we could take her into our rescue so they didn’t have to euthanize her with a blockage of an entire towel in her stomach. We were happy to help and what a sweet girl she is. She is gaining weight steadily and doing fantastic.
