Hi everyone! We have been contacted quite a few times looking for temporary care of animals while their owners are hospitalized or in treatment facilities. We have had pretty good luck helping so far, but we need more help. If you are interested in fostering a dog or cat while their owners get the help they need (typically 1-6 months), please email [email protected] to get started!

We need your help! We were just contacted by someone who found a kitty almost frozen to death. She brought the kitty inside but asked us to take her in. We need to get her seen by a vet as her eyes are goopy and she doesn’t seem to have a lot of energy! This wasn’t one we were expecting but are trying to get this cat seen asap! If you can help at all, please click the link to donate and make note it’s for frostbite kitty! Thank you!!!!

13 years ago we saved two dogs that would change my life forever. I remember seeing this video and BAWLING. We had just started Protecting Paws and were only 2 months in. I called Monique and begged her to let me pull them. They had been in a shelter for 2 years as evidence. TWO YEARS. She was hesitant as they had been used in a huge fighting ring in Georgia and we obviously couldn’t meet them before pulling them and arranging transport, but she agreed. I bawled again. I was so damn happy to be able to help them. 12 years ago today, they arrived in MN. Cinnamon had burn marks and scars all over her body. She was in the worst shape I’ve ever seen a dog. But, she LOVED people. She did this little dance to play where she would put her two front legs up and paw at you and her little butt never stopped wiggling. She wouldn’t walk through doorways. She was scared of most noises. She had never seen a bed. We had to put them in boarding temporarily while we found the perfect fit. Shortly after their arrival, Brandy found a foster, and shortly after that, a forever home. We had a ton of people volunteering to go see Cinnamon at boarding. Take her for car rides. Walks. Anything. Everyone loved her. And then, on Easter, Robyn text me and asked if she could take her home for the day. That day turned into the rest of her life. Three years ago, Cinnamon crossed the rainbow bridge and I know all of our fur kids met her at the gate. Every time this memory pops up on my Facebook, my heart shatters and smiles a little at the same time. We may have saved Cinnamon that day from the shelter, but my God this dog did so much more for us than we did for her. She taught us that our past does not determine our future. And that good things can come to those who work for it. She taught us that although things are scary, if we learn to face our fears, and really work on things, we can be the best version of ourselves. She taught us that if we love unconditionally, there are no obstacles too big to conquer. Cinnamon fought for the first 5 years of her life. Literally. But she had lived in a home with other dogs and with children since Robyn and Zackery took a chance on her. I loved you, so much, Cinny girl. I’m so glad we found you. I’m so glad Robyn and Zack took a chance. And I’m so glad I got to be apart of your life. You are what makes me keep going. You are the true definition of rescue. And you, are one of my biggest inspirations. ❤️💔🥺

Who is ready for some GREAT news?!?! Tomorrow is Ghost’s last heartworm treatment! These past several months have been a lot of appointments, a lot of meds, a shot today, and one tomorrow, and a whole lot of love and laughs! But our guy is almost ready for his new home!! We know that finding a deaf, 10 year old bully breed is not a small task, but if you met him, you would instantly fall in love! He would do best in a home without cats and slow intros to other dogs, and one with older kids (only because of the deafness). Ghost is so goofy and LOVES a good snuggle sesh! He’ll lick ya til his heart is content. He does well in the car, is potty trained, crate trained, and the best part about a deaf dog? He rarely barks and doesn’t wake up anytime someone rings the doorbell or comes into the room!

If you would like to give Ghost his forever home, please email [email protected]

If you are willing to donate to his last treatment, it’s approximately $300. You can call our friends at ValleyView Pet Hospital and pay them directly at 952-432-9661 or PayPal [email protected]

Any help is appreciated! Thank you all for your support as always!
