After a several broken promises by area rescues. These 4 young males from the SHNF , that had been let down since Sept 8 , were finally trapped and caught by the finder and a volunteer trapper.
But I couldn’t leave them
Out there any longer. It was only a matter of time before they were shot, hit by a car or attacked by another dog/animal.
So They brought them to me yesterday for holding , until we can get them in to get neutered and recovered. I
They do not have a plan, they do not have a rescue commitment.
If you feel led to donate towards their neuter, food or care please pm me and I’ll provide payment links.

Hospice dogs like Jefe remind me that love is the greatest gift we can give.
He’ll live out his days here with warm beds, gentle hands, good food, and all the love his heart can hold. When it’s time, he won’t make that last walk alone. 🤍🌈

These 3 precut dogs need an adopter , rescue or foster before 10/31

10/04/2025

With so many new “rescues” popping up in our area, accountability and transparency matter now more than ever.
We’ve all heard the warnings about breeders who won’t let prospective owners see their kennels or homes. Maybe it’s time we hold rescues to the same standard.
🚦Are the dogs receiving full vet exams upon intake—not just vaccines, but checks for murmurs, pneumonia, parasites, and other health issues?
🚦Is the shelter/kennel/yard clean and safe?
🚦Do the dogs get to run and play outside multiple times a day, or are they confined to wire crates stacked on top of each other?
🚦Are they being put in diapers so they don’t have to be let out?
🚦Are behavioral issues , fear, anxiety, aggression, resource guarding being addressed by professionals?
🚦Are fosters and adopters being properly screened?
🚦Does the rescue have a set limit on how many dogs they can responsibly care for?

Lately, we’ve seen far too many “rescues” turned into hoarding situations. With so many dogs left to suffer even more abuse and neglect.
I believe Most start with good intentions, but it’s so easy to get caught up in the rush of THE SAVE without considering what happens afterwards?
Do they keep proper records?
Do they post frequent updates?
Do they require follow up visits after adoptions—at 1 month, 6 months, 1 year?

And most importantly: are your donations actually going directly to the dogs?
A legitimate rescue will have nothing to hide. You should see lots of photos, videos, and updates showing how donations are being used. Never hesitate to ask questions.
A rescue that operates with honesty and transparency will welcome your interest in their mission—not be offended by it.🩵
