Andy’s before and after photos from his neuter surgery at Southern Winds Veterinary Services today!
Can you tell the difference?
Nope! That’s because he’s still the same sweet Andy we all know.
Neutering doesn’t change a dog’s personality, it just helps prevent unwanted litters, reduces certain health risks, and can even promote calmer behavior over time.
Now Andy’s fully vetted and one step closer to finding his forever match!

Valerie is posted for adoption! She turned 6 months recently and weighs in around 45 pounds. She’s not done growing yet as she is still very much in her puppy stage.
This girl needs an adopter who is willing to give her time to adjust on her own- just like she did here! She has come a long way from the darkness of a culvert and we see her growth daily.

Denver and Andy visited the vet yesterday. Denver was neutered and got his rabies vaccine and Proheart12 shot at Southern Winds and Andy saw an eye specialist in San Antonio for his corneal edema and was prescribed some more meds. Both are heeling well and are getting on great at the Good Catch farm with each other and the rest of the gang and will be ready for applications in a few more weeks.
Valerie has really come out of her shell in the last week. She's an observant girl who loves the company of others and has picked up our routine fairly quickly considering her neglectful past. We'll be posting her bio tomorrow in the hopes of finding a family looking for a second dog or someone who is willing to work through adjusting to singleton life with.
These dogs are quite resilient and have taught us over time that no matter how difficult things may be today, tomorrow is a new beginning.

🌈 A donation was made in honor of Macee by her groomer and our friend at K's Mudpuppies.
Macee wasn’t one of our dogs but she was most certainly her mom’s good catch.
I truly believe that losing a pet changes something in our DNA. No matter how small, the impact these animals have on our hearts is immeasurable.
Rest peacefully Macee and say hi to all of our long lost pals for us.❤️❤️

Yesterday was a great day! Andy came home to Good Catch from Joanne and Kathy’s, and this little guy couldn’t be luckier. He was rescued just in time after being sprayed in the face by a skunk, the burn left him with ocular edema and without medication, he might have gone blind. Thankfully, after a week of eye medication and lots of TLC, Andy is healing beautifully.
At about 32 pounds and 1½–2 years old, Andy is a sweet, resilient boy. He met 13 new dogs yesterday without incident, showing just how friendly and adaptable he is.
When he first arrived, Andy was only 25 pounds and very underweight, but thanks to his time decompressing and fattening up with Jo and Kathy, he’s feeling great and full of life again. He has a recheck at Southern Winds tomorrow and a neuter appointment in a couple of weeks. After that, he’ll be ready to find his forever family.
Andy deserves the world, and we can’t wait to see him get it.

In addition to Andy’s arrival, we also welcomed Denver, a 1-year-old Retriever, to our rescue!
Denver’s dad is not well and knew this boy needed more than he could provide. With the help of our incredible networker/transporter/foster/friend Bonnie, Denver made the 6-hour round trip from Waco to Marion, TX yesterday and is now beginning his journey to finding a new family.
Denver weighs about 65 pounds and will be headed to Southern Winds on Tuesday for a full “work-up”; vaccines, heartworm test, Proheart (if negative) and neuter. Once he’s healed up and settled in, we’ll be on the lookout for the perfect adopter.
This boy wants to GO, he has a zest for play that’s unmatched! Denver wasn’t shy at all with his introductions to the new dogs (through the fence) or with new people. We’re so excited to see him shine as he starts this next chapter.

It’s been one week since Ruby’s pups were born and boy are they thriving!!! Ruby has her appetite back and it’s a good thing because these babies can EAT!
We’ve had multiple Amazon deliveries with items from our Amazon wishlist. Not all have come with receipts to know who to thank, but if you see what you sent below, feel free to say so! Otherwise, thank you so very much to everyone who helped us get through a rough patch last week. Your generosity was received ten-fold.

Ruby heads back to Southern Winds Veterinary Services on Monday for a health check and bloodwork. Photos of her pups will be posted soon!!!
