💔 Clover Has Lost So Much. Now She Needs Someone to Choose HER.

Clover came into the shelter as a stray with her puppies. She had already survived life on the streets while trying to keep her babies safe. Sadly, despite everyone's efforts, her puppies were simply too sick and didn't survive. 💔

We pulled Clover into foster care hoping her healing could begin. But she's currently sharing her foster home with another mama and her puppies, and Clover seems quieter and a little sadder. We can't know exactly what she's feeling, but we do know one thing:

This sweet girl deserves a family of her own. ❤️

Clover is already such an easy girl to love:

❤️ Housebroken
❤️ Crate trained & keeps her crate clean
❤️ Very quiet and well-mannered
❤️ Good with most other dogs
❤️ Ignores cats
❤️ Just wants a safe place to finally belong

Clover has spent enough of her life surviving and being a mama. Now we want someone to make HER the baby. 🥹❤️

A soft bed. A quiet home. Someone to curl up beside. Someone who looks at her and says, "You're home, Clover. You don't have to lose anything else."

Please share her. Somewhere out there is the person who can give Clover the happy ending she's been waiting for. 🏡🐾

Could that someone be you?

Meet Andy — 20 Pounds of Pure Love! 💚

Andy is 2 years old, about 20 lbs., and a Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix with the sweetest little soul.

Andy came from a hoarding situation, so much of his life has been spent surrounded by dogs instead of knowing what it feels like to truly belong to a family. It’s time for that to change.

🐶 Amazing with other dogs
❤️ Sweet, gentle & submissive
🩺 Heartworm negative
🧳 Perfect size for traveling
🐾 Ready for walks and adventures
🛋️ Equally happy snuggling on the couch and taking naps

Andy isn't asking for much. He just needs someone willing to show him what being part of a family feels like—for the first time in his life.

🚶🏻‍♀️Want a walking buddy? He'll go.
🚗Want a travel companion? Pack his bag.
🛋Want a little couch potato to snuggle beside you? Andy is your guy.

At only 20 pounds, he's the perfect lovable size 💕 to fit right into your life—and hopefully stay there forever. 🏡❤️

Please share Andy. His past was spent in a hoarding home. Let's make sure his future is spent knowing he is loved. 🐾

❤️‍🩹 CASH’S AMPUTATION WAS A SUCCESS! ❤️‍🩹

Our sweet Cash had his surgery, and we are so thankful to say everything went well! 🙌🐾

Cash will no longer have to drag around a leg that wasn’t helping him. Now he can heal, adjust, and move forward toward a much more comfortable life.

This boy got his chance because an amazing family stepped up for him. ❤️

This is why fosters and adopters are so important. We can want to save every dog that needs us, but without a home willing to say YES, our hands are tied. When someone opens their home, it gives us the opportunity to step in, pull dogs from the shelter, provide medical care, and change a life.

Cash is proof of what can happen when people come together. 🐾

His medical care comes at a cost, and if you would like to help us continue helping dogs like Cash, no donation is too small. Every $5, $10, and $20 adds up and allows us to say YES to the next dog who needs us.

💙 Ways to donate:

Cash App: $SDMmendingpaws
Venmo: SDMmendingpaws

PayPal: paypal.me/sdrmmendingpaws

Ozark Vet: 334-774-5940 — Option 5

Thank you to everyone who fosters, adopts, donates, shares, and supports our mission.

Cash got his second chance because people cared. ❤️🐾

🚨 URGENTLY NEEDING FOSTERS! 🚨

We desperately need fosters for puppies AND adult dogs — small, medium, and large. 🐶❤️

Right now, there are young puppies as young as just a few months old, up to 5 months, sitting in the shelter and desperately needing out. We also have adult dogs who need a safe place to land.

💔 Without fosters, these dogs remain in the shelter — and some are at risk of euthanasia.

Fostering can be:

🏡 Short-term, even just a few days to a couple of weeks until transport
❤️ Longer-term, while we work toward adoption
🐾 A temporary safe haven until a permanent home is found

We supply everything you need! Food, supplies, and support are provided. You simply provide a safe place, love, and a little time.

You don't have to be able to foster forever. Even a short-term foster can literally save a life.

If you can open your home to a puppy or dog, PLEASE reach out ASAP. If you can't foster, sharing this post could help us find the person who can. 🙏

🚨 Some of these dogs don't have time to wait. They need fosters NOW.

Please message us if you can help. 🐾❤️
