🍁🐾 REMEMBER MAPLE?! WELL, OUR GIRL IS STILL WAITING!!! ❤️

When we first introduced Maple, she received SO much love and attention! So many of you shared her story, rooted for her, and helped us spread the word when we desperately needed a foster home.

And guess what? IT WORKED! ❤️

Thanks to that support, Maple got her chance to join SDBP CT Rescue and settle into foster care!

But here’s the thing…

FOSTERING WAS ONLY THE FIRST CHAPTER OF MAPLE’S STORY! 🥹

Our sweet girl is still waiting for the most important part — a family to call her very own!

We know Maple caught so many hearts when we first shared her story, so we’re asking everyone to rally around her one more time!

🏡 WHERE ARE MAPLE’S PEOPLE?!

Somewhere out there is a family who is going to absolutely adore this girl. We just need to help them find each other!

❤️ Interested in adopting Maple? Reach out to SDBP CT Rescue for more information or to submit an adoption application!

🐾 Can’t adopt? PLEASE SHARE! The same community that helped us find Maple a foster home might just be the reason she finds her forever home.

We got her into rescue. Now let’s get her HOME! 🍁❤️

🐾📢 LOUD MOUTH ED IS STILL WAITING!!! ❤️

Remember our distinguished older gentleman, Ed? Well, unfortunately, our previous search for a foster didn’t turn up any takers, and this handsome, opinionated old man is STILL waiting at animal control! 🥹

At approximately 10 years young, Ed has plenty of personality, loves his toys, and apparently has a thing or two to say about just about everything! 😂❤️

We would LOVE to bring this funny old man into SDBP CT Rescue and give him the second chance he deserves, but we cannot pull him without securing an appropriate foster home first.

That’s where YOU come in!

🏡 We’re looking for someone willing to open their home and heart to Ed so we can get him out of animal control and into a comfortable, loving environment while we work toward finding his forever family.

Ed doesn’t need a mansion. He just needs someone willing to give an old guy a chance. ❤️

Please, please consider fostering Ed. And if you can’t, SHARE THIS POST! Somewhere out there is someone who would absolutely adore this goofy, lovable old man.

🐾 Let’s get Loud Mouth Ed out of animal control and into a home!

SDBP CT Rescue was launched to help keep care going for dogs like Snoopy, Koda, Bentley, Summer, Maple, Frankie, Nash, and Bane. Our rescue funds are depleted, while veterinary care, vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, medications, food, and preventative care continue—including at least $1,200 in expected expenses for Bane. 🐾❤️

We’re raising $5,000 to replenish rescue funds and continue helping dogs find safe, loving homes. Please like, comment, and share this post—and donate if you’re able—so more people can see and support the dogs who depend on us.

🐾❤️ FOUR DOGS. FOUR DIFFERENT STORIES. ONE SHARED HOPE: A LOVING HOME. ❤️🐾

Today, we’re putting the spotlight on four very special dogs who need our help finding their people.

Some are currently in the care of SDBP CT Rescue, while others are still with their owners and we’re personally assisting with their placement. Different circumstances, different personalities, and different needs, but every single one deserves the opportunity to find a home where they can truly thrive.

🚨 NASH — OUR MOST URGENT NEED! 🚨

Nash is an Australian Shepherd mix who desperately needs somewhere to go AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

We have personally met Nash, and he was friendly, relaxed, and an absolute pleasure to spend time with. Unfortunately, his current living situation is no longer sustainable, and his family has been trying to find an appropriate placement for quite some time.

Nash would benefit from a calm, predictable home without cats or young children. His compatibility with other dogs would need to be evaluated individually.

We urgently need a suitable foster or adopter for Nash. Without somewhere for him to go, our ability to help him is extremely limited.

Please, if you have room in your home or know someone who might be a good fit, reach out. Even sharing his story could make all the difference.

💕 SUMMER — OUR GIRL WHO HAS WAITED LONG ENOUGH!

Oh, Summer. ❤️

This beautiful brindle girl has been in foster care for over five months, and we honestly cannot understand how she hasn’t found her person yet.

Summer is affectionate, intelligent, goofy, and just the right amount of sassy! She’s been learning, growing, and showing us more of her wonderful personality throughout her time in foster care.

She’s ready for a family who appreciates her individuality, understands the importance of continued guidance and training, and will love her for the incredible girl she is.

Summer has waited patiently. We’d really love for her next chapter to begin.

🌸 MAPLE — OUR LITTLE QUEEN!

Small dog, enormous personality!

Maple came into our care after being found as a stray and going unclaimed. She can be a little shy initially, but once she’s comfortable, she’s affectionate, playful, and quite happy to be treated like royalty.

She’s recently been spayed and is recovering well, with plenty of love and attention from her foster family.

Maple does best with respectful canine companions who understand her boundaries, and we’ll be carefully considering the right environment for her.

We’re reviewing applications and will coordinate appropriate meet-and-greets once she’s fully healed and ready.

💙 BANE — OUR HANDSOME BLOCKHEAD!

If that face doesn’t make you smile, we don’t know what will!

Bane is just over a year old, weighs approximately 56 pounds, and has the most ridiculously adorable face.

He’s a young boy with so much life ahead of him, and we’re helping him find a family who will give him the stability, attention, and love he deserves.

Bane is vaccinated and will be neutered prior to adoption. He has reportedly done well with people, children, and many dogs, although introductions and individual compatibility will always be important.

We’re currently accepting applications for this handsome guy!

❤️ HERE’S WHERE WE NEED YOU.

We know not everyone can adopt. We know not everyone can foster. And we understand that bringing a dog into your home is a serious commitment.

But you can still help.

🐾 Share this post.

🐾 Tag someone who may be looking for a companion.

🐾 Talk to your friends and family about fostering.

🐾 Help us get these faces in front of the people who might be their perfect match.

And please, especially keep Nash in mind. His need for placement is urgent.

At SDBP CT Rescue, our goal isn’t simply to get dogs placed as quickly as possible. It’s to help them find the right homes, where both the dogs and their families can succeed.

Whether they’re directly in our care or we’re helping a family navigate a difficult rehoming situation, we believe every dog deserves that consideration.

Thank you for continuing to support our little rescue and the dogs who depend on all of us. Every share, every conversation, and every helping hand matters more than you know. ❤️

🐾❤️ **AN EXCITING UPDATE ON QUINN!** ❤️🐾

Remember our beautiful senior girl Quinn, who was waiting at Torrington Animal Control? 🥹❤️

**WE HAVE SOME WONDERFUL NEWS TO SHARE!**

Another rescue organization has stepped in and **pulled Quinn from Torrington Animal Control!** 🎉🐾

We are so incredibly grateful that this beautiful girl has been given an opportunity for a new chapter, and we want to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the rescue that stepped up for her.

But we also want to take a moment to thank **YOU!** ❤️

The response to Quinn's story was absolutely incredible. So many people shared her photos, commented, reached out, and expressed genuine interest in giving this sweet girl a loving home.

And we want you to know that **we haven't forgotten about you!**

While Quinn is no longer at Torrington Animal Control, we are still waiting to learn more about the plans for her moving forward.

We know many of you are eager to find out whether Quinn will be available for adoption, how to express interest, and whom to contact.

**As soon as we have accurate, confirmed information and permission to share it, we will provide an update!**

We also plan to follow up with the individuals who reached out to us about Quinn so that, once we have the appropriate information, we can help connect interested parties with the organization responsible for her care.

We don't want to speculate, provide incorrect contact information, or make promises about her availability before those details have been confirmed.

For now, we're simply celebrating the fact that **someone stepped up for Quinn!** ❤️

And that's exactly why we share these dogs.

Not every dog we advocate for is in our rescue's custody. Sometimes our role is simply to help get their faces and stories in front of the right people, support the efforts of other organizations, and bring attention to animals who deserve a chance.

**Rescue is a community effort, and Quinn is a beautiful reminder of what can happen when people come together for the dogs.**

To everyone who shared, commented, offered to help, or considered opening their home to Quinn, **THANK YOU!**

And to the rescue that stepped in for her, we are sincerely grateful. ❤️

Here's to hoping the next chapter of Quinn's life is filled with everything this beautiful girl deserves.

**STAY TUNED FOR MORE UPDATES ON QUINN!** 🐾❤️

🐾❤️ **AN IMPORTANT UPDATE ON BODIE & BUGSY!** ❤️🐾

We wanted to take a moment to update everyone who has been following, sharing, and reaching out about these two handsome boys.

First and foremost, **THANK YOU!** ❤️

When we shared Bodie and Bugsy's story, we did so because there was a genuine sense of urgency surrounding their need for new homes.

Their original owner had fallen ill, and the family member who stepped in to care for them had reached a point where continuing to do so was no longer manageable.

SDBP CT Rescue joined forces with **Bark and Soul Training** and the dogs' current caretakers to help find appropriate, loving homes for both boys.

And our community responded!

People shared their story, reached out with questions, expressed interest in adopting, and even took the time to complete applications.

We are incredibly grateful for every single person who stepped forward. ❤️

**NOW, FOR THE UPDATE...**

Shortly after our efforts to find homes for Bodie and Bugsy began, members of their original owner's family stepped forward and expressed interest in taking the dogs.

This was an unexpected development, and while we are hopeful that it may lead to a positive outcome for both boys, **their long-term arrangements have not yet been confirmed.**

What we do know is that Bodie and Bugsy are currently being cared for, and the immediate urgency surrounding their placement has changed.

For the time being, our active search for adoptive homes is **on hold while the family works through these arrangements.**

We also want to clarify that Bodie and Bugsy have remained in the care of their current caretakers throughout this process. SDBP CT Rescue has been assisting collaboratively with networking, screening interested applicants, and helping coordinate potential placements. The dogs have not been in our rescue's custody.

❤️ **TO EVERYONE WHO EXPRESSED INTEREST...**

Please know that your time, kindness, and willingness to help have not gone unnoticed.

We recognize that some of you became genuinely invested in these boys, and we understand that this update may be disappointing or confusing.

We wish we had more definitive information to share, but we believe in being transparent with our community rather than leaving everyone wondering what happened.

Should circumstances change and the caretakers request additional assistance, we will do our best to help again.

**AND HERE'S SOMETHING ELSE WE WANT YOU TO KNOW...** 🐾

While Bodie and Bugsy's situation may be changing, there are still so many wonderful dogs waiting for someone to give them a chance.

SDBP CT Rescue works directly with dogs in need, and we're always happy to connect with individuals and families interested in adoption.

If you reached out about Bodie or Bugsy, or if their story inspired you to consider adopting, we'd love to stay connected!

We can help you explore other potential matches, and you're welcome to complete an adoption application to begin our screening process so we can keep you in mind for future opportunities.

📩 **[email protected]**

Finally, we want to thank **Bark and Soul Training**, the boys' caretakers, and everyone who came together to help navigate this situation.

**Animal rescue isn't always a straightforward process. Circumstances can change overnight, plans can shift, and sometimes the outcome looks very different from what anyone initially anticipated.**

But one thing remains the same.

**Our priority will always be the well-being of the dogs.**

If Bodie and Bugsy are able to remain with family in safe, loving, and appropriate homes, that would be a wonderful outcome.

And if they still need our help, we'll do what we reasonably can to support the next steps.

Thank you for showing these boys so much love. ❤️

🐾❤️ IT’S VETERINARY TECHNICIAN APPRECIATION WEEK! ❤️🐾

We had to share this and join in on the appreciation for the incredible team at Litchfield Hills Veterinary Hospital! 🩺🐶🐱

From all of us at SDBP CT Rescue, THANK YOU for the compassion, dedication, and wonderful care you provide to our rescue dogs!

We know that working in veterinary medicine isn’t always easy. Behind every appointment are hardworking individuals who give so much of themselves to the animals in their care.

We are incredibly grateful to have such a wonderful veterinary team helping us keep our rescue pups happy and healthy.

A special shoutout to Amy, Lindsay, Kasey, and Kyleen as we celebrate Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week! ❤️

Your hard work, kindness, and commitment to animal welfare do not go unnoticed or unappreciated.

Thank you for everything you do, not just for our rescue dogs, but for every animal who comes through your doors! 🐾💕

With love and appreciation,
SDBP CT Rescue
Here for the Cause. Here for the Dogs.

This week is Vet Tech Appreciation week! Join us in thanking these amazing ladies for going above and beyond every day for our furry, feathered, and scaled patients!

🐾❤️ TWO DOGS. ONE MISSION. AND A COMMUNITY COMING TOGETHER TO HELP! ❤️🐾

EVERYONE, MEET BODIE & BUGSY! 🐶🐶

Two handsome boys. Two lives that have been turned upside down by circumstances beyond their control. And one shared mission: finding each of them the loving, permanent home they deserve.

Bodie and Bugsy are both 6-year-old males, currently located in Connecticut, and they’re looking for their next chapter.

Their story is one of those difficult situations that reminds us just how unexpectedly life can change.

Their original owner has unfortunately fallen ill, leaving these boys in the care of a family member who stepped in to help.

And while tremendous efforts have been made to continue caring for them, circumstances have reached a point where doing so is simply no longer possible.

We want to emphasize something important here.

❤️ Sometimes rehoming isn’t about a lack of love. Sometimes it’s about circumstances that have become bigger than the people trying desperately to manage them.

Not every rehoming situation is the result of irresponsibility or a lack of commitment. Sometimes families find themselves facing heartbreaking decisions despite doing everything they reasonably can.

These situations deserve compassion, understanding, and support rather than judgment.

AND THAT’S WHERE TEAMWORK COMES IN! 🤝🐾

SDBP CT Rescue is working collaboratively with Bark and Soul Training and Bodie and Bugsy’s current caretakers to help find these boys the best homes possible.

This is exactly the kind of collaboration we believe in.

Different people bringing their experience, knowledge, resources, and dedication together for one common purpose:

Doing what’s best for the dogs. ❤️

And now, we’re asking our community to be part of that effort!

🐾❤️ LET’S MEET THE BOYS! ❤️🐾

💛 BODIE — 6-year-old male Golden Retriever

Just look at that gorgeous face and that big Golden Retriever smile! 😍

Bodie is one handsome boy, and we’re hoping someone out there will see his photo and want to learn more about him.

🩶 BUGSY — 6-year-old male

And then there’s Bugsy!

That adorable little gray face, those big expressive eyes, and that picture of him proudly carrying his bone! 🥹❤️

Seriously, how precious is this little guy?!

📍 Both boys are currently located in Connecticut.

🏡 Both are seeking loving, committed, permanent homes.

❤️ IMPORTANT: BODIE AND BUGSY DO NOT HAVE TO BE ADOPTED TOGETHER!

While we would certainly welcome interest from someone who could provide a wonderful home for both, we recognize that the right home for Bodie may not necessarily be the right home for Bugsy.

Each boy is an individual with his own personality, needs, and preferences.

Our goal isn’t simply to find somewhere for them to go.

Our goal is to find where each of them truly belongs.

We are welcoming inquiries from individuals and families interested in adopting one or both of these boys.

📩 INTERESTED IN BODIE OR BUGSY?

Please email [email protected] to learn more and request an adoption application.

As always, applications will be carefully reviewed, and we’ll work collaboratively with interested families and the boys’ current caretakers to determine whether the home and each dog’s individual needs are a good match.

We believe in thoughtful, responsible placements, because finding the right home matters just as much as finding a home.

🙏❤️ AND IF YOU CAN’T ADOPT, PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE WORD!

Share this post. Tag a friend. Tell a coworker. Send their pictures to someone who’s been thinking about welcoming a dog into their life.

You never know whose heart these boys might capture.

We also want to extend our sincere appreciation to Bark and Soul Training and Bodie and Bugsy’s current caretakers for coming together to work toward a positive outcome.

Because sometimes helping a dog doesn’t mean bringing that dog into your own home.

Sometimes it means bringing the right people together to make sure that dog finds the home where he belongs. ❤️🐾

And that’s what we’re hoping to accomplish for Bodie and Bugsy.

Two dogs. Two opportunities for a beautiful new beginning. And a whole community that can help make it happen.

Let’s get these boys seen! 🐾❤️
