*Theodent Toothpaste
As a rescue, we witness heartbreaking cases of animal abuse and neglect from all across the state. Sadly, this story is no different. And yes — this is real. These photos are NOT AI generated. This is a living senior dog we saved from euthanasia. Meet Theodent Toothpaste. Until he can be professionally groomed, we aren’t even sure what breed mix he is. He’s estimated to be around 8–10 years old and has a heart murmur. We are still getting to know him, but one thing is already clear — he is deeply attached to his foster and just wants to feel safe and loved. So far, he has been such a good boy. UPDATE 5/28/26 -- he has been groomed and photos to be posted soon. His DNA showed he is 71% poodle and the other 29% is split among Bichon-American Eskimo-Shih Tzu-Maltese-Pekingese-Pomeranian-Chihuahua-Schnauzer-Cocker Spaniel As we continue learning about his medical and emotional needs, we are asking for your help to raise donations for his care. Every contribution will go toward veterinary treatment, grooming, medications, and helping “Theo” finally experience the comfort and kindness he deserves. If you find it in your heart to help Theo you can donate by sending a check or money order to: UOH 4040 Railroad Ave Pittsburg CA 94565 PayPal beourpet@gmail.com Zelle beourpet@gmail.com Venmo @Umbrellaof-HopeRescue Help us help Theo live a better life!! #theoslifematters GENERAL INFO: Housebroken?: Yes, we think so Crate Trained?: Yes Leash Trained?: Yes Rides Well in Car?: Yes Non-Shedding?: Low to no shed Good with cats?: Yes, we think so Good with dogs?: Yes Qualifies for Seniors for Seniors?: yes Umbrella of Hope does not have any strict rules on ages of children because all children are different, but our best approximation is that this animal would do best with children over the age of 5 Umbrella of Hope is an all-volunteer, donation-run, non-profit animal rescue based out of Pittsburg, CA that rescues animals from local shelters, places them in private foster homes, provides them with needed medical care and then finds them new homes. Also, ask us about our seniors for seniors program, where we adopt animals 5 years or older to qualified homes with a $5 donation as an adoption fee. All animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites and given any additional treatments (dental work, bloodwork etc) as recommended by our vet. Adoptions to veterans of the US Armed Services are ALWAYS free to thank you for your service. We thank Well Pet Vet Clinic for providing most of our veterinary services and give a special thanks to volunteer photographers Tanya, Barbara, Kristy, Christine, Teressa and Natalie.
