Helpful Posts: Here is a link the Hope For Paws Flicker Album on saving Pepsi and Cola. They are two young poodles who were heroically rescued by Eldad Hagar of Hope For Paws. Pepsi and his sister, Cola, were living in a sewer tunnel under 14 lanes of Los Angeles freeway traffic.

Pepsi and Cola are now nicely groomed, healthy and happy and living in our home as fosters. They are absolutely darling dogs and are enjoying being clean, well fed and having a big yard in which to play.
I will be posting recent images of the siblings later today.
We will be placing these dogs for adoption as a bonded pair. We will not split them up after all they have been through!

If you can guarantee me the same conditions, I'll come and live at your house too.

Re: Saving Pepsi Cola
Their tails say it all Richard. Beats me how you can part with them when they move on.

Re: Saving Pepsi Cola
They are so bad (in a good way I suppose-trying to get through that fence), glad they've got so much room to play.

Re: Saving Pepsi Cola
I got an email from CNN who want permission to use some of my images of Pepsi and Cola https://www.flickr.com/photos/127242428@N06/ on a segment about the rescue of these two dogs.
My reply was to ask that our Maltese Rescue California be credited for the images... I don't know when (or even if ) they will appear on CNN

That's awesome, Richard. I hope they bring attention to your work (both rescue and photography).

Re: Saving Pepsi Cola
We have another dog that I sent them information on. Cookie is a 12-year old poodle with no use of her rear legs. Our orthopedic vet says that there has been no trauma to that area but, that she has probably been kept confined in a cage or crate which resulted in atrophy of her muscles.

Natalie of "The Total Dog", an aqua therapy and fitness site in Oceanside, CA has donated a month of aqua therapy. If there is improvement, we will continue with the therapy...
