The pets below are NOT AVAILABLE for adoption – so please do not apply for them. These are kiddos currently in our care who are being treated for various illnesses and injuries, or are new moms who are busy raising their angel babies ♥ Watch our website and our Facebook page to learn when we will start accepting applications for them.
Your donations to P.R.A.R. help us to care for these special cases, most of which often cost the rescue several THOUSANDS of dollars. We appreciate all the help we can get to give our orphans the very best care available! ♥
SQUISHY is on MEDICAL HOLD 💜
Squishy is not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our dogs receiving medical treatment. What she needs most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality care! ♥
If you’re able to help Squishy with a tax deductible donation toward her lengthy care, vetting, and any potential complications, we would be incredibly grateful. 
Squishy is a Chihuahua / Rat Terrier mix who was found running stray at about 3 months old in N. Texas. One look told us, something is very clearly different with this little girl’s body! Basically, she’s a medical unicorn.
Xrays have baffled 4 veterinarians and one veterinary neurologist. Squishy’s spine, vertebrae, and ribs are… “wonky.” Yeah, that’s a medical term when you can’t figure out WTH is going on!
One doctor in TX said her spine was broken. It’s not. This is some sort of congenital abnormality, and likely a combination of several rare abnormalities.
We will be working with our medical teams to get little Squishy’s condition figured out and support her as best we can with any special needs she may have.
Follow Squishy’s story on our FACEBOOK page – we’ll be using the hashtag #Squishy for this lil’ darlin’.
Differential / Working Diagnosis
Congenital vertebral malformation syndrome (multiple malformed vertebrae, hemivertebrae, transitional vertebrae)
Sacral/caudal regression / partial agenesis of sacrum/coccyx (explains short tail)
Atypical/variant short-spine syndrome (not classic, but milder form preserving neck length.
This is not necessarily a fatal or catastrophic condition — many dogs with vertebral malformations live functional lives without surgery.
The prognosis depends on whether there is spinal cord compression or neurologic compromise; if none now, the goal is to preserve function and quality of life.

FLUTTER is on Medical Hold
Flutter is not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our animals receiving medical treatment.
Caring for exotic animals is prohibitively expensive. Like, ‘add an extra ‘0’ to whatever you think something MIGHT cost’ kind of expensive. 😬 Caring for an exotic animal with an illness is… 🤯
Diagnostics ALONE have cost the rescue nearly $3,000. This does not include the ‘WEEKLY’ NSAID therapy injections he needs, ongoing purchases of a gazillion toys and enrichment items for him to completely annihilate, (don’t worry, that’s his job) or the special equipment for his enclosures to help him build strength and navigate safely.
Flutter is in a heavily enriched environment designed intentionally to help him feel secure, keep him safe when he falls, navigate easily, stimulate his brain, and rebuild grip strength on multiple natural wood and rope perches.
He is being offered an EXTREMELY varied diet of high quality pellets, fresh vegetables, legumes, sprouts, seeds, and some fruits in attempts to get this stubborn boy to get complete nutrition.
What Flutter needs most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality treatment with his very expensive exotic vet. ♥
If you’re able to help support our medical program with a tax deductible donation, or purchasing much needed items from our AMAZON WISHLIST, we would be incredibly grateful.
FLUTTER
Flutter is an 18 year old Triton Cockatoo who is on medical hold due to neurological complications & physical limitations.
He arrived in July with feather loss, dehydration, muscle wasting, and… pretty wobbly. He is under the care of Dr. Fitzgerald, Board Certified Avian veterinarian at Exotic Pet Vets.
That test alone cannot diagnose PDD ( proventricular dilatation disease). But when we put it together with his neurological symptoms, his enlarged proventriculus, and the fact that extensive testing has not found another explanation, our veterinarian now has a high suspicion that Flutter is suffering from PDD/Avian ganglioneuritis (AG).
We don’t know what his timeline looks like.You can follow Flutter on our FACEBOOK page – search the hashtag #Flutter
DOLLY is on Medical Hold
Dolly is not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our animals in quarantine or who are receiving medical treatment.
Caring for exotic animals is prohibitively expensive. Like, ‘add an extra ‘0’ to whatever you think something MIGHT cost’ kind of expensive. 😬
Dolly’s “check-up” and bloodwork to ensure she’s healthy has already cost nearly $1,000, and she still has to go back in for sedation to place her microchip and remove her painful leg band. These costs do not include the incredibly varied diet offerings, toys & enrichment, or specific equipment required in aviculture.
What she needs most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality care! And did we mention that exotic veterinarians are EXPENSIVE! ♥
If you’re able to help support our medical program with a tax deductible donation, we would be incredibly grateful.
“DOLLY”
This beautiful baby was a transfer from The Denver Animal Shelter. She was surrendered after her owner passed away.
Rescues and sanctuaries are FULL. We have the knowledge and ability to care for these exotic birds, so of course we were happy to help this sweet little one.
She is currently undergoing a minimum 6 week quarantine to ensure there are no contagious illnesses that can be transmitted to other birds.
She is estimated to be in her late teens/early 20’s according to her leg band. She is under the expert care of Dr. Fitzgerald, Board Certified Avian veterinarian at Exotic Pet Vets, where biochemistry and CBC tests are being run to test for general health, and she’s already had a comprehensive physical exam.
DNA testing has shown that Dolly is, in face, a FEMALE.
The bird band she is wearing around her leg is painful and needs to be removed. This will require sedation.
She is skinny. She is exhibiting stereostippie behaviors that may suggest her life and environment previously didn’t meet her very specific needs.
She is learning to forage and eat a more diverse diet as we work to get weight onto her, and get her ready for adoption.

ASHA Is On Medical Hold
Asha is not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our dogs on medical hold. What she needs most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality care! ♥
If you’re able to help support our medical program with a tax deductible donation, we would be incredibly grateful.
“ASHA”
Asha is broken… and we’re going to try to fix this precious little girl. But WE NEED HELP!
Asha was brought into a shelter in Oklahoma in absolutely horrific condition.
Pawsitive Restorations saw the plea for help that shelter staff posted to social media. The video of this little girl – so broken… her eyes pleading for SOMEONE to help…
In looking at her little broken face, we knew Asha was going to need a LOT of care, and her care would be extensive and expensive.
Didn’t matter. Our Director was hopelessly captivated by this tiny girl, and within 5 minutes of seeing her on social media, we claimed responsibility for her care.
We named her “Asha” which is Sanskrit for Hope – because hope is what we could offer her.
Asha was taken to the nearest hospital where we discovered that she had a fractured jaw, and her jaw was partially de-gloved. It was literally being held on by her tiny frenulum. Her pelvis was shattered on both sides, with possible sciatic involvement. She was filthy, matted, and covered in stickers and burs. Her rectal area and rectum were infested with maggots, leaving her with a terrible skin infection. She was covered in ticks, and had a previous injury that had healed where she somehow lost 3 toes on her front foot. This baby was B.R.O.K.E.N.
Asha had surgery to repair her jaw the next day, which required EIGHT teeth to be extracted from her tiny, perfect face, her jaw to be pulled back together, and her lip to be tacked back on.
Asha spent 5 days in ICU on antibiotic IVs before being released on 10/11/26. One of our incredible foster coordinators happened to be in OK visiting family, and agreed to pick Asha up and add her to her flight home that day.
Asha is currently in foster care in Colorado as we await further instruction from our Orthopedic Surgeons on next steps. Asha’s pelvic repair will have to wait until her skin infection is completely resolved, otherwise we risk introducing infection into her bones, and Lord knows she doesn’t need that complication on top of everything else she’s dealing with.
FRANTICALLY RAISING FUNDS!
Early estimates for Asha’s care (in OK) were $10,200. That number is expected to change now that she’s in Colorado where veterinary care tends to be more expensive. We are frantically trying to raise the funds Asha needs to heal her tiny body before her pelvic surgery.
If you can spare even $5 to help her, we would be so very grateful. Her surgeries, and recovery will not be easy or cheap – but Asha is worth EVERY. SINGLE. PENNY.
I don’t know if she’s ever known what it feels like to matter… She knows now. 💜

BOTTLE BABIES Are On Maternity Hold
These babies are not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our dogs on maternity hold.
What they need most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality, round-the-clock care! ♥
If you’re able to help these tiny orphans with a tax deductible donation toward their care and vetting, we would be incredibly grateful.
“The Trailer Babies”
Six tiny newborn pups were found inside a horse trailer in S.E. Oklahoma. No mom could be found… she didn’t come back for them.
Mama dogs don’t just leave their babies. Either something horrible happened to her, or those puppies were dumped in that trailer.
Regardless of how they got there, they needed help urgently.
Pawsitive Restorations Animal Rescue had the puppies put onto a rescue flight with our incredible pilot the day after we learned of them. They arrived to our Neonate Program on 10/10/26 at approximately 2 weeks of age.
The babies are in foster care, receiving round-the-clock care and bottle-feeding. They will grow with us, be immersed in age-appropriate enrichment, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and eventually spay/neutered so that we can end the cycle of unwanted births in their family. Then, these precious little souls will be ready to find their forever families. 💜

PHOENIX is on Medical Hold
Phoenix is not available for adoption at this time. We do not accept inquiries or applications for our pets receiving medical treatment.
With the anticipation that he will need to see an opthalmologist once his URI has been treated, what Phoenix needs most is your support for our medical program to ensure continuation of top quality care! ♥
If you’re able to help Phoenix with a tax deductible donation toward his ongoing care, we would be incredibly grateful.
Phoenix is about a 4-month-old Domestic Shorthair Kitten who arrived in our program on 9/8/26 with a severe upper respiratory infection with both eye & lung involvement.
This ITTY-BITTY, 2lb boy was rushed to our community partners at Animal Emergency & Specialty Center where he underwent a LOT of testing and diagnostics.
Phoenix has infiltrates in his lower airway suggesting that he has Feline Lower Airway Disease as a result of the brutal URI he’s fighting. Eye stains did not show any ulcerations in the eyes, but doctors have been unable to move his 3rd eyelid on the right eye, so we are not sure if he’s dealing with an injury, congenital issue, or if it will resolve spontaneously with the URI.
Our plan is to treat the URI aggressively, and if the eyes are still in trouble, we will book an appointment with our opthalmologist for further diagnostics.

PLEASE consider a tax deductible donation to help us help these medical and maternity cases. These sweet souls often cost the rescue thousands, if not TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars. We never want to say, “NO” to an animal in need, but we cannot continue to take on more medically fragile dogs without the continued support of our animal-loving community ♥
