Slinky and Yoyo are 1-year-old mix pups in Moab, UT, who need $2,000 for Parvo Treatment.

Slinky(M) and Yoyo(F) were found abandoned in Newcomb, NM on the Navajo Reservation in early January. A long-time supporter of Underdog Rescue and Rehab saw them cowering under some trash to try and keep warm from the chilly winter winds and scooped them up. Since recovering from Parvo, both Slinky and Yoyo are now in their forever homes.

Slinky and Yoyowere very energetic, happy, and vocal pups. So when their foster reported that they were acting lethargic and uninterested in food, we knew something was wrong. After three nights of intensive care, Slinky and Yoyo are both back to their energetic selves. They love exploring and following their noses to new places. They enjoy playing with other dogs and learning new tricks.

Underdog Rescue has saved 1400 + dogs from the res. We never turn a dog away because of their medical needs. We are a small rescue that relies on our supporters to help us through emergency medical cases.

Slinky and Yoyo were transported to our foster in Grand Junction, CO. Later, the foster reached out and said Slinky was acting lethargic and was uninterested in food. At Amigo Animal Clinic, Slinky was diagnosed with Parvo. Two days later, Yoyo was diagnosed with Parvo too. Each pup spent three nights in intensive care at the vet for IV fluids to ensure they survived.

Slinky and Yoyo are from the Navajo Nation reservation. They were rescued from the estimated 250,000+ stray animals on the rez. Rez dogs are against some of the harshest environments, deadly dog diseases, and cannot access basic needs. When these pups survived abandonment in the winter on the rez and deadly disease, they became heroes in our eyes.
