Ruff Around the Edges - Dog Training and Rehabilitation has helped our shelter with dogs who wouldn’t have been placed otherwise. Sophie is one of their many success stories! 🩷 This rescue does great work for animals who may not have anywhere else to turn.
Want to know what we do as a rescue?
Well let’s start from the beginning! 7 years ago we were contacted by Exploits Valley SPCA about Sophie.
Sophie was removed from a hoarding situation where she was bullied and starved for food. Sophie trusted no one and was extremely dog aggressive.
Marina and her family agreed to “foster” Sophie as she went through her rehabilitation process. It was a lengthy one which took a year but Sophie learned to trust and love again. A dog that hid behind couches and ran from people, a dog who tried to attack other dogs from kms away could finally accept love and learned other dogs weren’t so bad.
Who knows how Sophie would have made out. Sophie became a permanent member of Marina’s family however Marina contacted us before Christmas stating Sophie had crossed rainbow bridge. BUT Sophie knew love, and that’s all we ever wanted for this once broken girl!
So here is a touch of what we do as well as an honor of Sophie post! Our first rescue that will never be forgotten.
PLEASE READ BELOW ON HOW TO HELP US HELP MORE DOGS
WE NOW HAVE NO RESCUES!
We would love to take on an owner relinquished pet waiting to get in but since posting our plea we have only received one donation from Darlene Bradley for 25 dollars!
All emts will be posted here!!! PLEASE PLEASE SHARE!!!!!
RESCUE UPDATE:
At the end of last year we made the announcement that due to lack of donations and transparency we would not be taking owned pets at this time.
We have had so many people reach out looking for help that our hearts are completely shattered that we had to turn them away with no options in sight as the SPCA’s can’t take them.
We would like to get back into helping these dogs of course one dog at a time!
We cannot work on little to no funds so we are asking anyone who can donate and help us get some owned pets in to please do so! Unfortunately the amount of requests coming in FAR exceeds the donations we receive! Whether it be 2 dollars, 5 dollars ANYTHING helps! PLEASE help us help these animals!
Our e mail for donations is: [email protected]
Nothing goes unnoticed by us!
AN EMT UPDATE WILL BE POSTED IN THE MORNING!
