Happy Thanksgiving from Helen, Snowball, Marshmallow, and all of your friends at Blackberry Creek!

Please be kind to turkeys and remember they are just as sweet, gentle, and deserving of our respect and love as our dogs and cats. 🧡🦃

Just like the President who pardons a turkey, we also give out pardons!

Instead of being humanely harvested with the rest of his pack, 479 is getting a second chance. He’ll live out his life at —tho how long they can go without eating him we leave up to them. 😉

They’ve named him “Wrigley” and already sent some pics. (Not sure why they’re allowing livestock inside but...? 🤷‍♀️) We hope 479 is thankful we drew his ear tag (& that we already had a 46 lb. field spaniel in the deep freeze for Thanksgiving!).

He’s the 44th dog we’ve warmly pardoned since 1981! For us, the Dog Pardon is the chance to kick off the holidays right: with a single gesture of seemingly random compassion. ❤️

Good luck, “Wrigley”!

What does a typical day look like around here? There is no such thing!

From grant writing and wrapping pig feet, to
vet appointments, podcast interviews, and humane education, no two days are the same. That’s the magic, or perhaps organized chaos, of animal advocacy.

📸 Thanks volunteer and board member, Corinne, for snapping these photos of our cofounder, wrapping Crommy’s feet (which are feeling much better since these were taken).

Big Wrig had to go to the vet today because the spot where he had a foxtail removed this summer has been irritated and oozy lately. It will heal for a month or so, then break open again and bother him, so in we went once again to see what could be done.

They were able to dig around in the tract (without even sedating him because he’s the best dog ever) and pulled out three more small fragments of foxtail that were still in there. 😳

Poor dude now has antibiotics and the cone of shame AGAIN, but the wound is hopefully all cleaned out this time. He also got a nail trim and of course, lots of cookies. 💅🍪

No idea how these clever sweet potatoes have figured out how to close the barn door when it rains 😆 Any guesses?
