I started rescue 6 years ago because I wanted to help save animals. I wanted to keep them from being given up, abandoned, lost in the system. I wanted them to truly have that forever home.

In those 5 years I have had 5 of these rescues returned or wanting to be returned.

That is for people willing and open to contacting me to let me know and for me to save them again. Of course I have always stepped up to the plate....but it makes me wonder how many that are not within continued care....how many are STILL with the families they were adopted into?

It makes me sad. Depressed. Kinda deflates wanting to help.....

We said we would take Harper back but honestly I still don't even have the situation with the two dogs Fiesty and Max who were left with us under control.

I am very grateful that Harper's original adopter had reached out to other rescues other than ours and they found who immediately by some miracle had a foster for him (and we would not have). But not all rescues have good reputations and care. What would have happened if Harper went to a terrible rescue? (He didn't thank God but what if?!?). Like how do we aa rescuers carry so much of this burden? If I didn't care my mind wouldn't still be thinking about all of these things 5 days after the fact.....

Anyway....I am rambling.

If anyone has it in their heart to adopt a now senior dog, 12 years young, that is a sweetheart please contact !!!

Rescue is not for the weak of heart.......

Max and Fiesty have had no interest at all for adoption. We would really love to have a foster by new year. We realize holidays makes commitment to fostering difficult. These two are the sweetest little dogs and I truly have no idea how their previous owner could just not take them with them when they moved.

Max is older and a perfect gentleman. No current health issues. Fiesty is a younger, also super sweet pup who always have a toy in her mouth. Literally.....all the time!

This is Fiesty. Don't really like the name but its what she came with and responds to. She is a 5 year old intact female. Per owner relinquish she has never gotten pregnant from her male sibling.

She does not do well with cats and will chase both cats and squirrels. While the previous owner says she is good with dogs, I have not experienced this. She splits flat in stalking fashion and will lunge at them when they walk by. She was also previously only "off leash" walked but has been doing great with her leash walks.

Potty trained and knows some commands. She is very sweet and loves attention too.

She is told to be 5 years old. Not vaccinated. Not spayed. Not microchipped. The rescue will be doing all of this.

This is Max. He is one part of the bonded pair. I would really like to not separate them. Unfortunately we do not have much information on him. No vet records. He came to us not neutered, no microchip, not vaccinated, etc. He was never leash trained but he had adapted well to our leash walks. He is potty trained and INCREDIBLY sweet little gentleman. We are hoping to get him all up to speed on medical things as soon as possible.

Based on his physical exam it is clear he has suffered from ear infections and aural hematoma that healed by wrinkled scar tissue.

I am told he is 12 years of age but he acts a lot younger.

I would love to have them go together if possible. I am still looking for a foster at this time.

She craves attention. Loves sitting on laps and does great with bladder and p**p expressions. She's finally on a diet and medication regimene that helps her GI tract and her skin continues to improve. She is doing SO well that she hasn't needed a bath in 2 days! Shes stayed clean and dry thanks to good bodily function and bedding maintenance! She's doing great! I apologize for my kitty voice

Hello again! Seems as soon as we found a home for Doug....another helpless soul was found by a good person. This little guy has to be pretty young and she was hiding under a car last night. She ran off initially but then jumped into the finders arms. They knew something was wrong when she kept trying to p**p and was straining really hard to do so. We offered to take her in under small bites and get her the help she needed. Thankfully these sweet people offered to foster her to help return the favor. Turns out this little lady had so much f***l matter matted into her fur that she couldn't p**p. It was basically causing her an obstruction. She was terrified and very uncomfortable. She received sedation and pain meds today to help alleviate her issue and we hope the secondary trauma to this area will resolve quickly. For now she's staying with us overnight until we can make sure she can eat and p**p normally before going into foster. We are still looking for her owners but unsure if they exist. She is pretty skinny and this f***l matted issue has likely been going on for at least a couple of days based on the severity. We've named her Ghirardelli (Delli) for short....well....because she's a cute chocolate color and....well...all those "caramel fillings".....we will save you the gross details on THAT. We have to find humor in vet med somewhere. **p

Doug has officially won over the hearts of his foster family! It didn't hurt that not a single person applied for this handsome boy. We could not be happier to have him in the loving home he is. He found his way into the arms of one of the beloved clients of and that means we will get to see him often! A wins a win! Thank you to the Flowers family for loving this guy!

Doug still hasn't found his forever home. His current foster can not hold him for more than another 10 days. Then he will be back in a cage. Doug is a sweet older dog. He's got some quirks but don't we all? His foster is open to arranging meet and greets for people interested. If you are interested in fostering or adopting please apply online. Thank you!

This is Boba. She is needing a new home. We will have more information soon.

Found dog. Need foster. Intact dog. Need foster by Saturday or he will go to a shelter as I am leaving on vacation and can not leave him at the office. He is very sweet. Severe ear infection and skin infection. Is a resource guarder, especially with food. Please contact us ASAP.

Your eyes are not seeing double. This is just another cat found outside without a microchip. Not neutered yet clearly "owned". Another examine of the cause of cat over population in the city. Who knows? Maybe these two black cats were of same household. Maybe that's why there is a litter of kittens out there about to make even more cats because of not spaying/neutering. He will stay with us until an owner comes forward but if no one is found then he also will be neutered....and all the things.

Meet Cloud! He was brought in to by ! He is a stray that has no microchip and has a SEVERE corneal ulcer that is infected and he may lose the eye. Thanks to an old fosterer he was able to immediately get into the hands of someone we trust. He will be treated for his eye issue while we are hopeful an owner can come forward. But we also think this may be a reason he was dumped or "lost". He is super sweet, seems younger based on his teeth and testicles. Once he has a clean bill of health he will be available for adoption.
