What an incredible day! 💚🐾

Today, we welcomed 13 dogs and 1 special needs kitty all the way from Mississippi into our rescue. Watching these deserving animals take the next step toward a brighter future is something that never gets old.

None of this would be possible without our amazing community. Thank you to our dedicated foster families who opened their homes and hearts, our volunteers who helped make transport day run smoothly, and BBC Lighting for generously allowing us to use their parking lot as a safe meeting place. We truly could not do this without you.

For these pups and their feline friend, this week is all about decompressing, settling into their foster homes, learning that they are safe, and letting their personalities shine. There will be plenty of naps, treats, belly rubs, and adventures as they adjust to their new lives in Wisconsin.

The best part? All 13 dogs will be available for adoption at our carnival next week! We can’t wait for everyone to meet them and see just how special they are.

Today was a reminder of what a village rescue truly is. Thank you for helping us change lives, one paw at a time. 🐶

🚨 SENIOR DOG MEDICAL FUNDRAISER 🚨

Meet Sundae. 🍨🐾

This sweet old man is at least 11 years old and has already been through more than any dog should. After his owner sadly passed away, Sundae was left trapped alone in an apartment before eventually ending up in a Florida shelter. Thankfully, we were able to pull him into rescue, but now he urgently needs medical care. Not only that, but we learned this sweet old man is deaf!

Sundae has an ulcerated mass on his eyelid that needs surgical removal, along with another large tumor on his chest. While he is under anesthesia, we’d also love to give this handsome senior a much-needed dental cleaning so he can finally say goodbye to that stinky old man breath. 💚

Our goal is to raise $1,500 to cover Sundae’s surgery and medical expenses. Senior dogs are so often overlooked, but they deserve comfort, love, and quality care just as much as any puppy. We want Sundae’s next chapter to be safe, pain-free, and full of love.

Please consider donating toward Sundae’s care:
💸 Venmo:
💸 PayPal: jacksplayground.org/donate

Every single donation helps, no matter the size.

If you can’t donate, sharing this post means the world to us and to Sundae. Let’s show this sweet senior boy that his story isn’t over yet. 🐶💚

We are so incredibly moved by these beautiful pet portraits drawn by Joselyn, Annabelle, and Morgan at eAchieve Academy - Wisconsin! They spent time capturing the unique spirits of our rescue animals, and we think they absolutely nailed it. 🐾🎨 The students at eAchieve Elementary learned about special needs animals and the power of animal rescues during their community week earlier this month. Their art teacher and Jack's Playground foster mom, Mina Satari, led the students in drawing some of our rescue animals. We are so excited to share some of the artwork with our Jack's Playground community. 🖼️✨Thank you to the amazing students for sharing your talent to help give our animals the spotlight they deserve! 💖

This pretty girl needs a name and a foster home! Her siblings all look like labs, but she ended up with all the fluff! We’re guessing she is some sort of lab/pyrenees mix.

She will be available for adoption at puppy yoga and our upcoming carnival on June 6th!
