Buddy and Friends Animal Rescue

Please. Please don’t ever dump your dog. Especially a pregnant one at that.
1. It’s a felony.
2. They deserve better from you. Ask a shelter or rescue for help.
3. Someone who knows you might throw you under the bus. 🤞🏻
Thank you Wrentham Police Department for getting this beautiful girl the care and love she deserves.

From Police Chief Bill McGrath:

UPDATE/CORRECTION: All you experts in the comments section are correct! She’s pregnant and currently at the Veterinarian’s office ready to go.

Anyone recognize this poor girl? Emaciated, covered in f***s and urine, recently had puppies, dumped at the Wrentham dog park, found at 4:30 this morning, picked up by patrol officers. WE WOULD JUST LOVE TO SPEAK WITH HER “OWNER” !!!

✨ Ellie Update ✨

Our sweet little Ellie is finally starting to show us who she truly is 💛

While her sister has been blossoming in her own way, Ellie reminds us so much of Bambi, like a tiny deer learning how to trust the world again one careful step at a time 🥺🦌

Ellie has learned she doesn’t just love people, she likes other dogs and even cats too. Having animal friends around seems to help her confidence grow, and every day we see a little more of her sweet personality come out.

Once Ellie trusts you, she is incredibly affectionate, gentle, and loving. She just needs someone patient enough to let her move at her own pace and remind her that the world isn’t such a scary place anymore.

🏡 Ellie’s Info:
🐾 3 years old
🐾 Pit mix
🐾 Around 30 pounds
🐾 Ellie
🐾 Kids 10+ are okay
🐾 Good for cats
🐾 Dog selective, meet and greet required and slow intros
🐾 Crate trained
🐾 Working on leash confidence
🐾 Best in a calm, patient home

Ellie is a sweet girl that just needs a confident human that will continue to show her that each day won’t bring another scar, but instead a comfy couch and a loving family

✨ Hallsey Update ✨

Our girl Hallsey has slowly been letting her walls down, and watching her personality bloom has been so rewarding 💛

Over the past few weeks, Hallsey has been spending time with volunteers, going on adventures, soaking up attention, and reminding us that underneath the stress of changed life is a dog who truly LOVES people.

She may not want to share her home with other dogs, but honestly? Hallsey is a total people’s girl. Your best friend. Your loyal sidekick. The kind of dog who forms deep bonds and just wants to be near the humans she trusts 🐾

After losing her owner, Hallsey’s whole world changed. Shelter life has been overwhelming at times, and while she can still be a little reserved in new situations, once she feels safe… her loving, goofy, affectionate side starts to shine.

✨ Hallsey would thrive with:
🐾 A calm, patient home
🐾 Structure and consistency
🐾 Time to decompress
🐾 Someone willing to let her move at her own pace
🐾 Lots of love and adventures with her favorite humans

A foster or adopter willing to give her that chance could completely change her life. Dogs like Hallsey don’t need perfect, they just need someone willing to believe in them long enough for them to feel safe again 💛

You must apply directly on our website for consideration:

🚨 From the Tennessee Gravel Pits to Massachusetts Hope 🐾💛

Meet Nadia, Tammy, Lizzie, and Brody, four lab mix puppies whose story started in heartbreak, abandonment, and survival. They are arriving 6/20

These babies were found dumped in what locals in Tennessee call the “gravel pits,” an area sadly known for unwanted dogs being left behind. Thankfully, our southern rescue partners stepped in before it was too late, and now these pups are getting the second chance they deserve. ✨

🐶 Nadia — sweet, curious, and learning the world isn’t so scary
🐶 Tammy — gentle, loving, and happiest close to her people
🐶 Lizzie — playful, happy-go-lucky, and always ready for adventure
🐶 Brody — the only boy in the litter and full of goofy puppy charm

At just 3 months old (born around 3/26/2026), these puppies are still learning how to navigate life. They will need families committed to patience, training, structure, and helping them grow into confident adult dogs.

They are young enough to adapt well to homes with kids, dogs, and other animals with proper introductions. Most importantly, they’re looking for families willing to show them that not every human leaves them behind. 💔➡️💛

Puppies this age deserve soft beds, full bellies, toys scattered across the floor, and people who love them forever, not gravel pits.

Please share to help these babies find the homes they’ve always deserved. 🐶

🤠🐾 TEX IS ARRIVING 6/6! 🐾🤠

Breed: Pit mix
Age: 2/24/2026
S*x: Male
Current weight: 22 lbs

And somehow… this adorable little guy is the LAST of his litter still looking for a forever home 💔

Seriously, you SEEN that face?! We cannot believe Tex hasn’t been scooped up yet, but we know his perfect family is out there waiting for him.

Tex will soon be making the trip north to Massachusetts and is hoping to find a family ready to help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. Like any young puppy, Tex is still learning all about the world around him. New places, people, sounds, routines — it can all feel a little overwhelming at first.

What Tex really needs is:
🐾 Time to decompress
🐾 Structure and routine
🐾 Patience while he learns
🐾 Love, guidance, and commitment
🐾 A family ready to raise a puppy into a lifelong best friend

Underneath those puppy eyes is a sweet baby just looking for safety, comfort, and someone to show him what forever feels like 💛

Tex is young enough to adapt well to kids, dogs, and cats with proper introductions.

Ready to give this little cowboy his happily ever after?

Voices For Carolina Animals couldn’t have said it any better.

Everyone waits for “somebody” to help.

Somebody to donate.
Somebody to foster.
Somebody to adopt.
Somebody to volunteer.
Somebody to speak up.

They see our code red pleas and assume someone else will do something. More times than not, that "somebody" never shows.

But the truth is… shelters and rescues survive because ordinary people decide to become that somebody.

You do not have to be rich, have a huge house, or dedicate every waking hour to make a difference. There are so many ways to help:

🐾 Adopt when you’re ready
🐾 Foster a dog temporarily
🐾 Donate supplies like food, bleach, towels, or toys
🐾 Sponsor a dog’s medical care or pull fee
🐾 Volunteer your time
🐾 Walk dogs at the shelter
🐾 Help take photos and videos so dogs can get seen online
🐾 Share posts online to help dogs reach adopters and rescues
🐾 Transport dogs to rescue or vet appointments
🐾 Attend county council meetings and advocate for better shelter support
🐾 Create fundraisers in your community
🐾 Attend fundraising events
🐾 Become a monthly donor
🐾 Advocate for spay/neuter in your community
🐾 Simply educate others with kindness and compassion
🐾 So much more, ideas are endless.

Every rescue story you see happened because somebody stepped up.

Right now shelters everywhere are overwhelmed, underfunded, and relying heavily on community support. The problems feel huge because they are huge. But change starts when people stop assuming someone else will handle it.

You are that somebody. ❤️

🦞🐾 Last but certainly not least… meet Lobstah Roll! 🐾🦞

A true New England favorite has officially arrived 🍋✨
German Shepard/ Husky mix - almost 5 months old

Part of our adorable “Girl Dinner” litter, Lobstah Roll made the journey from Tennessee to Massachusetts and is now on the hunt for a forever family to call his own 💛

This handsome husky/German shepherd mix is full of puppy charm and personality. He’s curious about everything, loves attention, and has that perfect mix of goofy puppy energy and sweet snuggly moments. One minute he’s exploring the world like a tiny adventurer… the next he’s curled up soaking in all the love.

Lobstah Roll is looking for a home ready for:
🐾 Puppy training and guidance
🐾 Adventure and playtime
🐾 Patience as he learns routines and manners
🐾 A lifelong commitment through every stage of life

As a young puppy, he’s at the perfect age to grow up around kids, other dogs, and cats with proper introductions and structure.

And let’s be honest… with a name like Lobstah Roll, he was basically destined to become a Massachusetts icon 🥹🦞

Ready to make him part of your family?
