😍 Buddy is feeling right at home with his foster dad. 🥰 Life is Good!

Buddy was rescued from a sad situation. He was the only survivor of a fire at his home. The fact that he lived outside might have saved him. After all that horror, Buddy tested positive for HEARTWORM DISEASE. We healed his heart emotionally, as well as physically. After his hospitalization and treatment, we completely cured Buddy. He is an amazingly sweet dog and worth every bit of attention we give him.

💜 Jelly Bean had her final checkup.
She leaves for Massachusetts soon! 🥳

We took in several dogs from an emergency hoarding case. All were boys here, except for Jelly Bean. They were pretty malnourished and frightened. Sadly, there were about 20 dogs in total. Every boy tested positive for heartworm disease. It seems as if all the girls were housed indoors, as none had heartworm. A few shelters and rescues have stepped up for the others. That past is over for them. One by one, they are getting the care they deserve. Jelly Bean is now spayed and up to date on immunizations and heartworm prevention. She leaves for another rescue.

Chili headed in for his Heartworm treatment today. He will be hospitalized for 2 days. Wish this sweet boy luck. ❤️‍🩹

Chili was one of the many dogs we took in from an emergency hoarding case. They were pretty malnourished and frightened. All males tested positive for heartworm disease. The girls were safe. Chili will be headed to a dachshund rescue when he has finished up with his heartworm treatment. Pepperoni will stay local.

💕Rosalie has been accepted into rescue because a sweet foster mom stepped up to help. She will be visiting the vet soon.💗 When she is ready to meet potential adopters, she will travel up to Florence, AL.

Of course we are barely into November and the dogs keep getting dumped. Coincidentally this is ADOPT A SENIOR PET MONTH. We just didn’t want ALL of them at once! 😢

This poor little senior was found as a stray. When the family was contacted, they surrendered her to the shelter and explained that they took in Rosie when their mother passed, but did not want her. Not to worry, sweet girl. You will be safe and loved.

😍 PUPDATE 🥰 The transformation is incredible from Noodle to Oliver. I would never guess that was the same dog. ❤️ He was always cute, but WOW!

💜 It’s a Great Day for BUDDY! 🥳

💕 We are so proud of Stella! 💗
She lost over 13 pounds. All those stairs, daycare friends, playtime, and monitored meals has paid off. 🌸

Stella joined our rescue when she lost her caregiver and her home. She lost everything she ever knew, and we could not leave her in the county shelter. We did not hesitate. Stella is on a weight loss program and doing well. She is so social and playful in doggy daycare that it is a very easy process. Her medical has been brought up to date. Now we heal her broken heart.

Penny is not sure what to do with her time, now that we put the pool away for the season. We need to bring out more toys! 🧸

💗 Penny was a puppy when her original family got her. She was raised with two children in a very active family. They took Penny Lane to obedience training, but didn’t have much time to work with her to reinforce her training. The kids left for college and she doesn’t get much attention now. She’s a great dog for kids or an active couple. She loves to play fetch and frisbee. She will run and wrestle with her doggy friends. The baby pool or a hose/sprinkler is her favorite things to play with on warm summer days.

32 lbs, 8 years. Spayed, female Manchester Terrier mix.

Good with kids, adults, dogs, but does chase cats without intent to harm. Walks well on a leash.
