Latest Update:

This is going to be a bit of longer story with this adoption. Miley Moo is a senior as I’ve stated before, her dad passed away and she was pretty lost without him. We knew it would be a challenge to place Miley but we just keep on trying. Candy Rittich from Saint Augustine, Florida has followed our page for a long time, and the story of Miley made her very sad and she knew that she would love to take her in but she is unable to travel.

She sent an application anyway and she emailed Laura. Laura thought she would explore the application even knowing the issue of distance. Her vets couldn’t have raved about her enough, and her phone interview told Laura that this is a very special lady and a jackpot of a home. Candy’s dogs are her whole life, her whole house caters to her dogs. she has followed Miley’s story even when she was living with her dad Dan and the rescue that he ran. It seemed like an adoption that was meant to be. Laura reached out to Ricky and asked if he was up for a road trip. You guys know Ricky and the answer was what day, I’ll be there.

Ricky left yesterday and made. two day trip with Miley Moo in tow, they spent the night in a hotel and finished their journey today where Miley met her new mama and as you can see she was pretty darn happy about her new life.

We are absolutely positive that Dan is looking down and smiling knowing his “ride or die” special girl has landed in such a great place.

Happy life to you all, we are beyond thrilled for you both..

About Miley Moo:

We were notified yesterday of a very sad situation that has occurred here in Texas with a rescuer that works with many large-breed rescue groups having passed away at his property. In his care at the time were over 50 dogs who had been without food or water for about a week with his passing. Liz Robles of Cane Corso rescue immediately mobilized her network of friends, volunteers and other rescue groups like us to get to these dogs immediately and begin triage. We found out that there was a 10-year-old female Dogue de Bordeaux named Miley Moo that was in the home with this rescuer when he passed, and she was alive and needed to be rescued. We were told that she was a very sweet girl and of course we said that we would help with her. We knew that there were many other dogs in need on the property and if we could help with another couple of them then we would be happy to do so. This morning Travis and Ricky made the trip down to meet with Liz on the property and were so happy to meet this old girl and Travis texted us that she was a wild and silly girl! She is overweight despite the last week of no food, and it is suspected that she may have a thyroid issue so we will get Dr. Reno on that Monday. In addition to Miley Moo, Travis and Ricky took in an older English Mastiff girl and a neutered, mixed breed boy who I will introduce separately.

Welcome to Dog Ranch Rescue Miley Moo!

UPDATE 5/30/2022

Miley Moo is a very old happy silly girl and will be heading for surgery to remove a large rectal mass very soon. We thought it would be best if she went to stay in a foster home before and after so Cassandra has taken her home. As you can see she’s not one bit stressed out about that.

UPDATE 5/19/2022

Miley Moo started to have some blood from her rectum. Dr Reno took a look at her and found a pretty big mass further down in her rectum and will require the surgeon to remove it and find out that it is. Of course it’s worrisome but we won’t get ahead of ourselves and will wait and see.

UPDATE 5/8/2022

This girl is such a special story, I’m going to lay in my recovery bed and talk about it a bit. Her daddy was a rescuer and he loved her with all his heart. She was his ride or die and off they would go to get breakfast burritos and Miley Moo would ride shotgun and get herself a little bit too. When word came out that her daddy had died at the home the scrambling began and Paige Santell from DDBR who we have worked with many times came straight to us for help. She said she knew that Dan would want her to get scooped up by the village and swept away to a safe place for the rest of her days and that’s precisely what we did. Travis and Ricky hopped in the bus and off they went. Miley Moo is worried and she is searching for her daddy but it’s okay, he knows she’s okay, we know she’s okay and very soon she will too. She’s an old lady in double digits with her age and all of you that follow our page know that’s rare with bears but here she is.

She will see Dr Reno first think tomorrow and we will be searching for her forever home. It’s tough with these newcomers with the old Labs, old Miley Moo, old Mastiff Charlotte that Travis brought home from Dan’s place at the same time as Roger, but that’s okay.

We will get all of them taken care of, give all of them the love they need and then find a soft forever spot to land even if they don’t have a lot of time.
