This.
This is everything.
This makes it all worth it.

Thank you for giving Jack his best life, for sharing his story, and for wanting to save other pets in his memory.

We are so grateful to Out to eat with Leo for giving us a little boost this month!

Thank you to everyone that purchased a “boo”!

Did a small drop off for the final week here at Rescued.

There are about 7 orders that haven't been picked up yet behind the counter.

Thank you for making this little fundraising effort so amazingly successful for the month of October.

I will have a couple more BooStanley's this week, I just need to find the energy.

Much love friends,
Leo

If you saw our post last week on Wednesday, we’d like to share an update! She had surgery to amputate her leg yesterday at Klein Animal Clinic, received monitoring and pain meds overnight, and will continue to get monitored today! Thank you for all your shares and for your support!
If you’d still like to donate, expenses did exceed the initial estimate for surgery and care!
As always, we appreciate your trust and support and we appreciate all of the amazing local vets that we have the privilege to work with!

We had a very special visitor today!
Jasmine stopped in to show us how well she’s doing!
Jasmine had injuries that were the result of abuse and needed a leg amputation that we helped cover the costs of a few years ago.

She is now living her best life and adores her owner!

This is how you help us make a difference!
Thank you!

***TRIGGER WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT***

We were contacted yesterday about a dog who had not only been hit by a car but also dragged underneath it. (Video in comments.)

The owners had very minimal resources to help the puppy so we stepped in right away. While we are in debt thousands due to urgent requests like this almost daily, we knew we needed to help!

We worked with Klein Animal Clinic to get Wednesday seen today and got her the proper meds she needed to stay comfortable until her leg amputation scheduled for Monday. Total costs for Monday’s surgery are estimated at between $1500-$2000+. We already have quite an outstanding tab so if you’d like to donate to Wednesday’s care, we’d appreciate the support! Please consider sharing, donating directly to the clinic, or donating to us so that we can continue to say yes to these cases!

Wednesday is just a one year old puppy and she has a full life ahead of her! No pet deserves to suffer!

*Only positive and helpful comments please! Negativity will not be tolerated!*

Did you know that Blessings Boutique donates to us quarterly?

Without this type of additional monetary support on a REGULAR basis, we would 1) be further behind than we already are and 2) we would start turning down requests for help with lifesaving care for pets!

We are so grateful that they trust in, understand, and support our mission! 🐾

Thank you!
