Patron Saint of Dogs
St. Roch, Feast Day August 16
...While ministering to the needs of the sick, Saint Roch became infected himself. It was his nature not to burden others and he stayed in a hovel. While he lay dying, a dog from a nearby villa found Saint Roch and brought a fresh roll from his master's house each day. The dog's owner noticed this strange behavior and his curiosity led him to Rochus. Touched by the sick man and his condition, the dog's owner befriended him and Saint Roch recovered...

Please pray for our boxer Xeena. She had her spleen removed on 5/17/09 because they found a 7mm tumor on her spleen. We pray and ask for your prayers that the results of her liver and spleen biopsys come back benign. I cannot stop thinking about her and tearing up every few minutes. This is the hardest things I have been through and I am sure it's even harder for her to go through it. I'm afraid that she can sense all of our worries and fears about her right now. Please pray for our boxer Xeena so she stays with us for many more years. She will be 8 on July 1st and she is just too young for cancer take her. She is very strong but we need more strength from upstairs to help her concur this.

ReplyDeletePlease pray for my pug pup Riley. She has been throwing up and won't eat or drink anything for 3 days. She cries when we pick her up. She just turned one last month. She has been to the vet, but they have no idea what is wrong with her. I love her dearly. She had Big Shoes to fill when I got her because I just lost my other little girl, Bailey, last year. I can't bear to lose Riley too. She is my little baby and follows me everywhere.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for my little Gretchen. She is a 13-year-old Lhasa Apso; I've had her for 12 years. She is in the hospital right now with what is most likely kidney failure. We are hoping and praying that some it can be reversed. She has been my loving companion for all those years and has given me such unconditional love, especially during the time I was housebound. I just pray to God I can bring her home and have more time with her. Thank you for praying with me.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for Missy, my miniature poodle. She is only 11 weeks old, and has become very sick this past week.

Please pray for her, shes just only begun her life, and she desirves to live many more years.

ReplyDeletePlease pray for astig, she's been with us for over 6 years and she's suffering from pyometra. She's been under medication for more than a week already, but i don't think it's working. It's so hard whenever she cries because i can't do anything to ease up her pain. I'd rather be the one in pain instead of her. According to her vet, astig has to go under surgery which will cost us roughly 9,oooPhp/195 U.S. dollars. Of course we can't afford that, so her vet suggested we put her to sleep instead of prolonging her suffering. I've other 6 dogs but still, astig has been part of our family so... We'll give it a week and see what happens. It's just so sad. I'm praying for a miracle. Please pray too that i make the right decision. Thanks for putting up this site, such a great help to all of us who love our dogs so much.

ReplyDeletePlease pray for Buttercup, she's my 11 year old beagle mix who I've had since I was in kindergarten. She's always such a lively part of my family and she always knows when to make us smile. Recently while out for a break outside, she disappeared. It's been two days, and she's never been gone all night outside before. There aren't any signs anywhere, no one has seen her, and we can't find her. I didn't get a chance to say goodbye and I don't feel I ever will if we don't find her. <3 Please. I don't know what I can do without by baby.

ReplyDeletePlease pray for Maggie. She is a 14 year old German Shepard Mix. She has multiple health problems (thyroid, liver, arthritis, sensitive stomach, beginning of cataracts and is somewhat deaf), all of which are under control and I supposed come with age. We found out recently however, that she is beginning to show signs of Degenerative Myelopathy and hopefully the precautions the vet has helped us take will slow the degeneration of her nerves. We've also discovered a tumor on her paw. She will be undergoing surgery Tuesday 13 April 2010 (after an over night at the vet's from Monday) to remove the tumor and biopsy it. I know I have been very blessed to have her in my life the last 14 years, but it would mean the world to me to have her a while longer, especially since I don't get to see her often anymore since I'm away at school and my loving parents take care of her for me. I'm so worried that while this is a normal procedure, that something might happen due to her age and health. Please, please offer up a prayer for her health and strength and that she not suffer? It would mean so much. She is so special to me and my family. I'm not ready to say goodbye. Thank you and please know I am praying for all of your intentions as well!
ReplyDeleteYour prayer request has been posted. We are praying for you and Maggie.
ReplyDeleteThis website is fantastic. Thank you for taking the time to set it up and to monitor it so vigilantly. Please pray for my German Sherpard Shawnee. She's nine years old and to say that she is my best friend wouldn't come close enough to describing the bond we share. My fiancee and I fear that she is suffering from Degenerative Myelopathy and are extremely worried about her. She is going to be diagnosed tomorrow and I am worried that the vet will have bad news for our family. I cannot imagine the fear and confusion she is going through. Please pray take the time to pray for her. Thank you all so much and for your thoughts and prayers and please know that we'll be praying for all of you as well.

To all prayer partners,
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord! Our dog "Sunny",(8pound Maltese), who had swallowed a stone... and then had surgery to remove it... and then acquired a serious infection during recovery which greatly threatened his life... and had to be reopened with another surgery - is doing much better! Thanks for all your prayers. According to the doctors, Sunny is not completely out of the woods yet... about another week, but it is obvious that God is watching over Sunny and is healing him. Again,Praise God!

ReplyDeletePlease pray for Bailey. She is a 13 year old German Shepard/Shar pei mix. She is amazingly strong in mind and body aside from mild arthritis. But she has become suddenly ill. Her gall bladder is stopped up and the build up of bile and other acids is affecting her liver. Surgery is not an option due to many reasons. After two ultrasounds, the doctors can find no blockage or reason for the enlarged gall bladder, but if the new meds don't work soon, she will go into liver failure. Please send a prayer to Bailey and to St. Roch, as I will do for all of your beloved pets. Thank you and God Bless.

ReplyDeleteTonight, my three year old Mini-Schnauzer, Chocolove ,had a seizure. He's too young to have heart problems and he's a very active dog. Seeing him lying dormant after the seizure is breaking our hearts. He is a loving and exuberant dog. Please, pray that St. Francis of Assisi will watch over his bed tonight as he sleeps and that he will relax his muscles and be pain-free so that in the morning, he will once again greet me and my family with his tongue rolling out of his mouth and his stubby tail wagging as fast as he can possibly wag it.
Thank you.
Michelley, I am posting your prayer request right now. I am using one of the pictures from your album. Know we are praying for his quick recovery.
ReplyDeleteThank you Esther,
ReplyDeletebut early this morning, Chocolove passed away.
My family and I are devastated, but we're praying and hoping that he's in a better place now.
Thank you so much.
I'm hoping and wishing that his ..death was quick to come and peaceful because of God's mercy, love and our prayers.
Thank you so much.
And oh yes, [you don't have to post this comment] after his body was taken into the vet, it was determined that his death was caused by being poisoned by snail pellets.
ReplyDeleteHe somehow got into the fenced garden and ate them...
Thank you, once again.
Michelley, I am very sorry that Chocolove passed away. How very sad for you! I will post an update to let the others know. We are praying for your consolation. God bless,

I ask for the safe and immediate return of my dog, Maggie, to me. She was ill so i took her to the vet, 80 miles away. She hopped out of the car window when I was paying for gas. She was lost on 5/4/10. I have have posted flyers (at stores and on the internet) and handed out flyers, but so far no luck. I ask for prayers that a responsible person find her (or she finds them) and call me (my numbers are on her collar), or take her into a vet or the humane society so she can be scanned (she is chipped) and returned to me. I deeply miss her!!!!! Maggie, please come home!!!

She is a part of us, she lets us live here to take care of her. We are her people her family and she is sick. She is a mixed breed with enough love to fill everyones heart that walks in our door.
