Little Bear
Little Bear passed away overnight in his sleep and was found by his foster family in the morning. He was loved and will be missed by his foster mom........BJ Herrick, March 16, 2021

Little Bear
Little Bear was also known as "Tilt" by his friends. This little guy gave back to his foster parents by teaching them strength, bravery, humility and love of life! He was extremely courageous as he went through the remaining months of his life with an inoperable brain tumor that left him with no concept of a "horizon line". This made his head tilt to the side and his tongue hang out. But Tilt always stayed happy and spunky.

Near the end, his right eye became paralyzed and eventually the day came when he couldn't stand or walk. Tilt died in the loving arms of his fosters.

Little Miss Muffett
Little Miss Muffett found her way into rescue after being picked up as a stray along with two other eskies in Michigan- Angel and Simple Simon. Of the three, Muffett tested heartworm positive, needed to be spayed and had a very large bladder stone that required surgery to be removed. Little Miss Muffett won the heart of the good samaritan that found her, she was also a vet tech and knew what kind of special care Muffett needed. Every day, Little Miss Muffett went to work with her caregiver- she was the ambassador for the staff and even the vet's own daughter came to visit every day just so that she could take Muffett on a walk. Even though she went through heartworm treatment without too many difficulties, it wasn't until she was spayed that she developed problems. After living a life of neglect and had never received any vet care, Little Miss Muffett passed away in the home of her caregiver. During her time in rescue, Muffett never let on how sick she really was, even in the end, her fluffy white tail wagged. Her caregiver will never forget this wonderful little spirit and neither will we.

Little Orphan Annie
This pup of only 9 months strayed into the path of a car and suffered two broken back legs. Little Annie went to surgery and was paid close attention to by her foster mom Kim, and even went to the hospital with her to entertain chemotherapy patients. Annie was a joy to be around and even played with her toys while laying in one spot.

But something went wrong. The left leg was not healing so she went into surgery again. Little Annie's life was cut short and died in recovery from complications in August, 2005. Annie broke a lot hearts that day and inspired the ERU Medical Fund to help offset the costs of emergency medical care for our rescued eskies.

Louie
Earlier today we said goodbye to our sweet Louie. We adopted him in 2004 through ERU when Kelsey was headed to kindergarten and Chris was just 7. Now Kelsey is graduating HS in just a couple of weeks and Chris will soon be 21. Louie gave our family so much joy over the years and was the best boat dog ever. He was my constant companion - always by my side and we are all going to miss him so very much. Rest In Peace sweet boy. ❤️........Angie Lambert, May 9, 2017
