These two sweet dogs were abandoned in the Manistee National Forest for what our veterinarian thought to be 2-3 weeks, judging by the quills in their faces. They were scared, injured, full of quills, and very thin. We were fortunate enough to have gained their trust enough to get them into my vehicle and bring them home, where we intend to foster them until they may find a loving, forever home. Our veterinarian believes that they are about two years old (with pearly white teeth) and are believed to be a wire terrier mix. There is one girl (left) and one boy. They are 50 and 60 pounds. They have been given their rabies shots. Neither has been spayed. They are great with cats, children, and other dogs. If I didn’t already have two dogs and two cats in a .33-acre lot in a subdivision, I would have adopted them for myself. If you, or someone you know, is interested in adopting a young, affectionate, and loving dogs, please reach out via messenger.

If you would be so kind to please share this post we would greatly appreciate it!

Have a great day!

If you are interested in these babies, please text 231-531-0507 and we will put you in touch with the foster family.

Monday Update.following vet visit: Thank you for your help with this sweet girl. Unfortunately she had a spinal deformity (that she was born with) where each time she tried to stand it would put pressure on her spinal cord and we had to put her down. Thank you again to everyone who donated. (A picture of the invoice is in the comments).

Sunday Update: The baby goat is now in the care of the person who initiated the rescue of this baby girl. She is blind in her right eye. We will update after the vet visit tomorrow.

Update: Thank you... Thank you.... Thank you. We raised the $180 needed for the Initial visit!!!

This little goat needs your help! We need to raise $180 for an office visit and x-ray to see why she isn't standing!

Howling Timbers was just contacted about this 3 week old goat who was stomped on by her mom shortly after being born. Our friend Beth at Duckhaven Sanctuary will provide her care and a lifelong home but first we must find out why she can't stand. An initial office visit and x-ray is $180. Once it is determined if she needs surgery, there may be additional funds needed. If it is determined that she will never have use of her legs and have no quality of life, she will be humanely euthanized.

(Goat is currently being cared for by original owner. Picture is just to show condition of legs.)

This is Hank, he is a 1.5 year old pit mix who was abandoned by his previous owners on a dirt road. He is now neutered, up to date on vaccines and chipped. He is very high energy and because of this would be best suited for a home as an only pet or with other very high energy dog. He is housebroken and knows some basic commands. He’s very snuggly and affectionate. He does well with kids but because of his energy level would be a good fit for a home with older kids as he can get a little rambunctious and knock them down.

If interested, please text 231-531-0507 and we will forward to current caregivers.

He saved us and many family members and friends a lot on insurance and provided better coverage. He is a pleasure to work with and very thorough. Tell him the Pearsons sent you!

Courtesy Post: This cutie patootie wants to curl up on the couch with a family in his forever home. He is an 11 month old Bulldog/Great Dane that is already neutered. This boy is great with kids, cats, and other dogs. He is housebroken, walks amazingly on a leash, and loves car rides. His only downfall is that he has separation anxiety. He would, therefore, be best in a home where somebody is home all day or can take him along. Rehoming fee. Please text 231-531-0507 for more info.

Courtesy Post: Marlo needs an indoor home where she will be warm and loved.

Her name is Marlo she is pit/lab, approximately 2, fixed and up to date on shots, great with kids and other animals, though she is a huge chewer if left alone for periods of time.

Currently she's in my backyard but one of my children has medical issues and I cannot keep her as he dumped her here unfortunately
