The Snoots Crew is sending a HUGE thank you to Gleaning For The World and The Virginia Federation Of Humane Societies for the truck load of dog food and cat litter. Our small rescue could not survive if we werent able to get supplies at such a great price. Big thank you also to Johnny Rooker and Robin Taylor Rooker for getting us there with your truck to pick it up.
THANK YOU..

Meet Callie.. Again.. Callie was found dumped with a litter of kittens. Sadly, all but one of her kittens passed away. That was 2 years ago and Callie is still looking for her forever family.
Callie is maybe 3 or 4 years old, spayed, utd on shots, was tested and negative but will be tested again before adoption. She will also be microchipped before adoption.
Callie is a sweet cat, with an independant personality. She loves to just chill and will come sit behind you on the couch, and she loves to sniff your head.. I know, weird right. Lol.
Callie currently lives with dogs and other cats and does tolerate them, however she is more of an independant kitty. Callie is litter trained, and not picky about what cat food she eats.

If you have a spot in your heart and home for a sweet, gorgeous kitty, please request an app at
[email protected]

Callie MUST be kept inside.

Our Tater.. Warning, some pictures may be graphic although I didnt post the worst ones.

For those that dont know Taters story, he came to us last week of the year last year when someone found him dumped at the landfill. He spent almost a month at the vet. Tater was just a baby, not more than 6 months old. Tater not only had many bite wounds but he also had what appeared to be intentional cuts and stab wounds. He smelled like death. Some of the deep cuts under his front legs were deep enough for the vet to reach into his body cavity. He had gangreen INSIDE his body cavity. This little guy was not expected to survive but he had fought so hard that we wanted to give him a chance.

Tater has been in a wonderful foster home, since he was released from the vet. But sadly, as if it wasnt enough, suffering through all he went through to just survive, Tater was found to have a severe grade 4 heart murmur. Tater has to have regular visits with a cardiologist, monitored with EKGs in home, and hes on several different heart meds that keep his hearf beating normally.

Heres where you come in. We are a very small, foster based rescue, that relies solely on donations. Taters Vet visits run between 250 and 500 each time, not to mention meds. Tatar is a very special pup, and will need a special adopter, but for now we are asking if you can spare a few dollars to help with Taters ongoing care, or any of the other dogs we have in foster, please donate below, or via paypal at
[email protected]

We cant save dogs like Tater without help from our family, friends and folllwers.
Thank you
Tater, and all the Saving Snoots family both 4 legged and 2 legged, thank you.

As always, please spay, neuter and microchip your pets.

Hey everyone,
Remember Tater, our landfill puppy that really wasnt expected to live.. Well he is thriving in his foster home, but he has a very serious heart condition. We have a cardiologist for him and he is doing mostly great on his meds, but he has been having some issues with collapsing. It seems to come mostly out of the blue and he recovers quickly. Meds are being added, but the visits lately have been every couple weeks. Each Vet visit runs us between 250 and 500 bucks. This is really putting a strain on our small rescue. We do not have regular donors, so unless we do a fundraiser of some sort, our President Jill, has to pay out of pocket for all rescue expenses.

We love Tater, our little miracle, and want only the best for him but we really need some help. Jill just paid over 700 for the last 2 visits and we have another one coming up in a couple weeks. This doesnt count the cost of his meds.

If you have a few bucks to help us out we would greatly appreciate it.

The best way to help is paypal or Venmo. Our paypal is

POOR COPPER.... Yesterday his ankle was just a little swollen, but he runs around jumping and playing like a maniac so I really just thought he jumped wrong on it. Well, this morning, his whole leg was double the size all the way to his shoulder. Call to the Vet, appt at 230. I already had an appt for Mia, because her foster said shes been scratching at her nose and face like its bothering her. So I was able to get them both in at the same time. Mia, fortunately the vet thinks its just allergies so she had an allergy shot, and script for steroids.

Poor Copper on the other hand, had a fever of 106.7, and a hell of an infection. Doc thinks he got bit by a spider or snake but we cant find ANY puncture wounds or anything. Doc lanced the spot by his ankle and drew out 6 oz of fluid. Gave him a shot for pain and pain meds to start tomorrow, a shot of antibiotics, steroids and scrips to start tomorrow. Through it all, the poking, draining, squeezing, he never growled or tried to bite and it HAD to hurt like hell. Even Doc remarked at what a good natured dog he is.

Copper is fully vetted and looking for his forever family, once he heals. For now say a prayer please for this sweet boy, and if you would like to donate toward his vet bill, or toward the care of any of our rescue pups, please do so via paypal at
[email protected]

You can also request an application at the above email. Donations can also be called into the vet, and put on our account. We have 2 currently going through HW treatment, (Mia and Peanut) 1 that needs a tooth pulled and full dental, (Peanut) 1 that will be spayed next week, (Mia) 1 that has to see a cardiologist regularily due to a grade 4 heart murmur, (Tater) and this with Copper was an unexpected expense. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

COURTESY POST... One of our amazing fosters reached out to me this morning asking for help with a 16 year old dog. Apparently the owner no longer wants the poor old girl. If a home or rescue isnt found by tomorrow, Monday 5 11 26, she will be dumped at an open intake shelter.

I have some choice words for the owner but that wont help find the poor dog a home. I cannot imagine a dog, 16 years old, spending her last days at a shelter.

If you can help this sweet old girl, please reach out to Cheryl Helsley.

The dog is spayed, but not up to date on shots.

PLEASE SHARE AND IF YOU CAN OPEN YOUR HEART AND HOME TO THIS SWEET SENIOR, PLEASE DO. SHE DESERVES HER LAST DAYS TO BE FILLED WITH LOVE, NOT SPENT SITTING IN A COLD SHELTER, JUST WAITING TO BE EUTHANIZED.

Hey friends, family, followers, meet Peanut.. AGAIN.. This older guy is still patiently waiting for his forever home. What would his perfect forever family look like you ask?? Well, Peanut can fit into nearly ANY situation. Peanut is pretty chill. He is dog, cat and kid friendly. He has lived with a foster that had other dogs, cats, horses and chickens, however due to a one time chicken incident, we dont recommend he live with chickens on the property. The "chicken eating" incident happened shortly after he had his eye removed and I fully believe the chicken caught him on his blind side and may have pecked at his "removal site". There has never been another incident since. In fact, he recently met 3 new dogs, 2 females and 1 male, and one of the females let a little growl at him and he turned and walked away. Even when "confronted" he is chill and 100% NON REACTIVE.

Peanut is an Aussie mix, about 8 years old. Fully vetted. Will be retested to check heartworm status because he recently finished treatment. Peanut was positive for Lymes, Erlichia AND Annaplasmosis, (in addition to HW). He has had the anitbiotics to treat all 3 but he may likely always test positive. No further treatment is necessary unless or until symptoms present.

Peanut knows how to sit and walks perfect on leash. Although he loves to run and play and his missing eye doesnt slow him down, care should be taken so he doesnt injure that area, since he cant see on that side. He is house and crate trained and is just an all around perfect gentleman.

If you are interested in making Peanut part of your family, please request an application via email at

If you need a running buddy, Stella is your girl. If you want a pup that will greet you at the door and give you hugs like you are their whole world, STELLA is your girl. This sweet pup didnt have the best start to her life, born outside, most of her siblings didnt survive. We tried for months and FINALLY got the owner to agree to surrender Stella to us when she started limping really bad and they couldnt afford the vet.

Stella is approximately 1 year old, mixed breed, a smaller girl at about 40 lbs, she is fully vetted, spayed, up to date on shots, on flea, tick and heartworm prevention, and microchipped.

Stella is dog friendly, playful, walks great on a leash, she will bark at a cat but doesnt have any aggression toward them. Stella would benefit from some basic training but does know how to sit. Stella is also crate trained and house trained. She LOVES to run and play, easily bringing a ball or toy back for more fun. Stella is great with respectful kids, and just an all around GREAT dog.

If you think you would like to add Stella to your family, please request an application by email
[email protected]

Home check, vet check required and any dogs in the home MUST be spayed or neutered.

Extra note about Stellas former life. She is mama Jasmine's puppy from her last litter prior to us getting Jasmine. We tried for over a year to get the owners to surrender Jasmine, but they refused. She was "cared for" just enough to meet the minimum standards so until they needed vet care, there wasnt anything more that we could do. We offered to spay Jasmine but initially they refused, and Jasmine had the litter with Stella. Stella was the only surviving puppy. When we found Stella limping, we were able to convince the owner to surrender her to us and allow us to spay Jasmine. But they still would not surrender Jasmine. Unfortunately by the time the spay appt came around, Jasmine was pregnant again.. and they would not allow us to spay her. When Jasmine got bumped by a car, according to the owner, is when they FINALLY agreed to turn her over to us. By then she was a couple days fron giving birth. So here we are..

Jasmine will be available for adoption as soon as her 8 puppies are weaned. If you are interested in fostering a puppy or 2, once they are weaned, (approx 6 more weeks, they are 12 days old now). Please email [email protected] and note FOSTER OFFER in the subject line.

PLEASE SEE UPDATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST.

Friends, family, followers, we need some help. Very preg mama dog owner surrendered to us because she was suspected hit by a car. Im with her at Brunswick Vet Clinic now for exam and xrays. If you can help with the bill, please call the vet directly at
434 848 2876.
Please Ref Saving Snoots, my name and Jasmine.

Or paypal
[email protected]

We also have venmo

I will post an update soon as I know more.
Thank you.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A FOSTER, EXPERIENCED WITH PREG MAMAS AND WHELPING PUPPIES.

JASMINE WILL BE SPAYED AS SOON AS PUPPIES ARE WEANED. SHE IS VERY PREG WITH MILK. I KNOW ITS CONTROVERCIAL BUT I WILL NOT SPAY ABORT AT THIS STAGE.

UPDATE: She was not wanting to walk at all, when I got her to the vet thank God for the 2 wonderful Acos from Brunswick AC who carried her into the vet for me. I really thought she had a serious injury based on her not putting weight on her back legs. She had the exam, f***l, and xrays. Xrays were fine. She does not appear to have any broken bones, nothing odd looking internally, and it seems she has at least 6 puppies. She is very constipated, and the vet gave her a little pain meds to help her soreness. He wants to see her for a recheck on Monday. Hopefully the babies are ok and there are no complications.

Asking again, for an experienced foster. She is very sweet, all the moving around, putting her on her back, poking and prodding and she never even growled, or did anything out of the way. PLEASE if you can foster this mama, until she has and weans the puppies, please message me. We pay for everything, you just provive a safe home and love.

If you can donate toward her vet bill or care please check above.

Thank you!
