🥺

ADOPTED!!!!!
Little Finnegan has been backed out on once again. We feel so bad for him! He’s not getting a fair chance as the potential adopters don’t even come to meet him. Poor little guy just sits here waiting…

And that got us thinking that maybe folks don’t realize that once we set up a meeting for an applicant to come and meet one of the dogs, that dog is then put on hold for that person.

What has been happening here lately is that we set the meeting up, the dogs waits and then a day or two before, or sometimes that day, the applicant says they aren’t coming.

So please, make sure you really want the dog before you apply or send that email. Check that your family agrees. Check the dogs weight. Read the bio. Is this what you really want?

It’s sad when they have to start all over again with a new applicant. And wait yet again.

In case anyone wants an update, I am now closer than ever to being able to offer full grooming services on a sliding scale for those in need, and free for shelter dogs! To be able to say that I can do absolute full service grooming, I am a couple of pairs of specialty scissors, and just a few more blade sizes, and maybe one brush short, but I've already been able to do most things as long as it doesn't require seven different blade sizes for the cut, including nail trims and shave downs, de-matting butt furs and other necessary grooming that some babes need. Sorry to have a few of you waiting in my DMs, It took me a while to get the correct clippers, dremel, and other equipment like muzzles that I wanted to have before I started doing this... But here I am! Not quite ready to do a poodle cut but certainly ready to do most grooms until I get there!
Regarding cheap and sliding scale: It's going to be dealer's choice, especially if your dog is matted, so if you want to be picky I'm not the one for you. But if your dog needs help and you want them cleaned up and or dematted and made more comfortable, And you don't care what kind of haircut it is, then we might be compatible! If you know anyone that could benefit from my services, drop me a line.

In case anyone missed this service being offered,
Hi!
I am offering pet yard waste removal.
Yes, you can be "good" at this, and that means that, yes, a bad job can be done as well. I am the former, not someone who will just do the latter.
I don't care about the heat and am always thorough.
I have many references and good very fair pricing.
Can use your trash can, or for an extra fee take the waste with me when I go.
Starting as low as $20 for certain situations.
You can check out reviews on my page Bizzy Dog Pet Services if you want :) I have just a few spots open right now for weekly/monthly clients, and they may fill fast!
TLDR: I will pick up your dog s**t when it's crazy hot out for a very fair fee, hmu! (Messenger is fine, just send me a friend rq first so I see the message, or comment on here so I know to check message filter folders, or we can simply talk on the thread only, up to you! 😁)

These are just some of the beautiful babes that I get to hang out with regularly!! (Ok the moth wasn't a returner but the rest of these guys I see at least once a week and some every day 🥰🥰. when it's hot out hmu, I'll do the "yard work" you don't want to 💪💪 no one wants to p**p scoop on a hot July day.. except me! 😁

Slacked off on cleaning up after pups 💩💩 and now its all freezy pops outside? Yeah I'll still come do it! I don't have all this cold weather gear for nothin! (Pricing at end of post!)
**Note: where there is a lot of ice, some can be chiseled out and some can't. By "can't" I mean it'll break apart and be a mess when it thaws so best to leave the really stubborn ones. But, since I charge by how much time I spend, it'll be cheaper if I have to leave a few and it's still better to get the bulk of it than none!
Due to the current unpredictable weather, I am not starting any plans at this time. Each job will be charged separately. Trust me, this benefits you, especially if I get snowed in. 20 bucks gets me out there, and covers up to an hour. Additional charges are added to the tune of $5 for every 15 min increment over that hour. So still 20 an hour but I break it up into quarters so you don't have to pay a whole 20 for less than an hour over. I'm quick and can get a lot done in an hour.
If you have a Budget, just tell me and I will just do as much as I can within your budget of time.
If not I'll just go until the job is done. (Or as done as it can be with the snow/ice)

Trying to see how much I can kickstart this relief fund in the 30 days that PayPal allows for fundraisers!
A lot of y'all expressed that you aren't fond of GoFundMe, so I'm using PP for this one.
Again, it only will be up for 30 days so please share! If I can make that $500 goal by the end of the 30 days, that will pay for at least a couple long distance, or more than several short distance emergency transports!
Please don't confuse this with the GoFundMe that I also have set up which is for school and supplies for my own service animal in training. This is a separate fund, used only for what is described.
There is an accompanying amazon wish list for general supplies I can use for all transports and to help me start offering even more services to rescue animals such as free grooming! 🖤 You can see it here:

Thanks!

This fund pays for gas and supplies to transport pets/rescue animals, in situations of emergency and non, close or cross-country, when the owner/rescuer doesn't have the money. I donate my time and car's mileage by driving, this pays the gas and any supplies needed for specific situation(s). I am tr...

!!!(To share this post please long press and hit "copy text" and paste into a post, if you simply hit share it will share the wish list but not the explanation)!!!
Share!?
So for y'all who don't know, I'm trying to do more emergency/rescue/free animal transport this spring. I love doing critter transpo as a job, and will keep doing so, but I also want to help more.
I'm starting a fund, tentantively called "Homeward Hound," (we have a few other names we're looking at if that one is taken or we like one better but that's it for now, taking suggestions and might even have a vote/contest!) that will cover gas and supplies for these types of runs when they are asked of me, as this tends to be the only barrier when someone needs my help. I've done it out of pocket, but I can't always and I'm sure you've noticed that I'm dirt poor right meow. I am always willing, however, to donate my time, knowledge, work, and the mileage it'll put on my car. Just don't always have the money for gas or immediate supplies to do so.
This is a way I can help DIRECTLY, use skills that I have and things I love to do (drive long distances and tend animals) to make a change, and know EXACTLY where the money that people help with is going and show it.
There will be 2 ways to help.

1. Direct funding: send any dollas you wanna throw into this reserve to one of these 3 money addresses, the funds here will only go to gas and supplies for SPECIFIC rescue missions and I plan to be completely transparent about every dollar used and how.

Paypal - [email protected]
Venmo -
Cashapp - $LuciFaery

2. Amazon wish list: Got a gift card for xmas that you don't know what to use for? Well, this is a list of items that I can add to my closet that would help me and the critters and Poppy both be more safe and comfortable together on these rides, and just altogether make these trips easier in general. None of these items are for a specific trip but more for all of them.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/DFGE6GX8FRJG?ref_=wl_share

All money I had set aside for helping was exhausted on my last run, and miraculously was actually just enough for the gas to get that critter, and myself, home. If you'd like to help me get more money back into that reserve, or, send any helpful supplies, then here y'all go! I won't likely be doing many long distance trips the next couple of months so now is a great time to get this back up.
***Grooming supplies that you see on the list are because I want to help with that as well! I plan on 2022 being the year that I go back into dog grooming, but other than a very few specific prospective clients, it is going to be mostly donating my time and skill to shelter animals to pretty them up and help them find homes, and helping with nails and matted dogs that come into shelters so they can be more comfortable. That's why the clippers and muzzles are on the list. I've been wanting to do this but no longer have my clippers, and because of the arthritis in my hands I unfortunately need very specific ones that I am used to.
Thanks for looking!

I ended up being able to go visit not one but two very good boys today while their people were away! If I'm in town I'm here for your critters if you need me :)

12/25/2021

Just visiting a cutie pie friend on Christmas! If ya ever need, I can come visit your friends on holidays too, and make sure they get fed and outside and loved while you're gone 💖

Poppy is doing so well :) little might not seem important but at 3 months (started way before this tbh) this is the beginning to larger task , , and them generally WANTING to be a "good dog," the meaning of which can be subjective and revolve around what it is you need them to do, and not do, for you and themselves. She's doing absolutely great with all of this! She's got all her pup shots and bordetella boosters as of yesterday and is scheduled for a day at the vet next month where she'll be spayed, chipped, and get her rabies shot. As soon as it's warm out we will be working with professional trainers as long as we have enough money to get started! here's a for that here: https://gofund.me/7acc9447
Meanwhile at home we'll be working on everything necessary before then!

12/15/2021

Don't forget one of our biggest jobs is also the dirtiest, but it has to be done!
Hmu to schedule an initial pet yard waste cleanup before everything gets covered in that cold white stuff!!!!
(I'll still pick it up if it is, but, it won't be as quick haha)
After the first visit, if you wish, we can get ya on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly rate :)
Pet puppo p**py pickups are important! My schedule fills up QUICK so get on it ASAP!!

In case it's confusing, yes, I'm working on 2 different funds right now that are being kept totally separate. One benefits myself, and one is not for me at all, and I'll explain them both:

1. The GOFUNDME: is to help pay for my PSD's service training. (If you don't like GoFundMe there are other payment methods listed below) It is a legitimate medical need of mine, that I'm happy to explain further to anyone who wants to message and inquire before sharing/donating, and that money is going toward that specific expense. the link to that is:
https://gofund.me/4c571cb9
2. The OTHER fund, for which there is NOT a GoFundMe, and has yet to be officially named, is a fund that is NOT for me. It is being collected and set up for people/rescues that need animals transported, but don't have the money to reimburse me for gas or any other expenses incurred on the trip. This will NOT be paying for mileage put on my vehicle, food I eat or any sort of hourly or other pay for my time. Those are all things that I just donate. It's to pay for the gas to get to the animal/drop off the animal/get me home from doing so, and any supplies I need specifically for the animal. If you'd like to toss a few bucks to help it get it's start, you can use any of these methods of payment:
Venmo:
Cashapp: $LuciFaery
Paypal: [email protected]
***Make sure to put a note in the payment letting me know what it's for!!! I use these for business as well and want to make sure everything anyone ever sends me goes where it is supposed to 💖

Still working on this fund! Please share :)

Hey y'all, this is Frankie!

**Post updated to add most recent info, and to tell you that kayla, Frankie's mom, commented on this post so you can reach directly out to her if needed!**

First off, Frankie is a very sweet boy!
He is, however, in need of a new forever home, with NO other doggos around.
He is a super great dog, wonderful to all of his trusted human friends, but has recently had a tendency to not get along with dog friends. His mama has another dog who needs her, and so for now he is in a separated but temporary situation in waterloo, Iowa.
This is an impossibly hard decision for his mama, and we are hoping to place him into a safe and loving place as soon as possible!
He doesn’t have any known allergies or health conditions, and would be an absolutely amazing best dog friend for the right person.

Here are some things about Frankie, in the exact words of his mama:

"He’s a lover, will cuddle and kiss you to death. Knows how to sit, stay, shake and give kisses. He can be a runner, and he’s really muscular and strong, so using a harness for walks is so beneficial. :)

His cutest quirk is that he loves shoes and will ALWAYS greet someone with a shoe or some sort of “present” when they arrive back home, shoes are his go to and if he doesn’t have something to grab, he will wait for you to take yours off and then grab it right away.

He hates his tail being played with though. And he is very skiddish when it comes to sudden movements, like raising your hand or something.

He is up to date on his shots / vaccinations and all that jazz." - this portion was Mama's words, not mine, and her and I are both here and willing to explain anything at all that you would like elaborated on!

***again, His mama, Kayla, commented on this post, since I couldn't tag her, so feel free to reach out directly to her bye commenting on her comments or messaging her!***

Basically, he has his things, good and bad, not unlike many rescue dogs, but definitely deserves a good home!
He just needs to be the only pup there.
If you don't currently have a dog, and just fell in love with that sweet face, or know someone who would, definitely contact us by commenting on this post, sending a message, or even tagging people in this post and even better, sharing it!
Also, perhaps you know of a rescue or rehab center that deals with this kind of thing.. we would love to hear from you about that as well! Literally anything that you can think of that might help this sweet boy! I am willing to donate my time and labor as well as the additional mileage it will put on my car to drive this boy pretty much anywhere that will be beneficial to take him, so if your idea or your option is a ways away, that's okay, because I'm here to help with that part!!
And again, Please share! Let's get this sweet baby a home for the holidays 💖🐾💕

Update on Aughra the adorable persian that we transported last week! As you can see, she has settled into her new home pretty quick and looks pretty happy! She was an absolute cuddly ball of joy to be around and I'm so happy we could help her get home! 💖💖

Y'all I am so excited right now! I'm SO excited, in fact, that I just had to post about this right now while I am sitting at this rest area, even though I can't tell the entire story yet haha.
Stay tuned for details, but seriously I have something so awesome finally coming together as a reality right now. I will be able to tell you all more, after I return to Des Moines and get through the weekend, but a bigger plan to be able to help more wayward animals is now fully in the works, and I am over the moon about it! I can't wait to let all of you in on everything, so be on the lookout for more posts about this as I continue to finalize things.
Related:
Animal transport is more than a job to me, it is a passion. I love driving, I love animals, and as you all know I am damn good at both.
I love meeting all of these animals and usually bonding with all of them during our short time together! I love how happy they are to be reunited with their people, or in other cases just how happy they are to be hanging out with their new people! I love the looks on people's faces, whether it's finally meeting a new puppy or finally seeing an old friend! I love hanging out with these guys and getting them where they need to go! And I love that soon, I will hopefully be able to do it for more people, and help people that perhaps cannot afford it, even when I cannot afford it.
So if all goes as planned then I'll have the ability to do precisely that! I will be able to do this as more than just a job, and I will be able to afford to help people even if they don't have the money for gas and supplies. I have done this many times, but always out of my own pocket, and it isn't always possible for me unfortunately but all that is going to change!
🐾💕 Like I said, stay tuned for more information as we get it put together!
Adorable picture of my old man and bestest friend, Ghosty, for attention. He is 16 this year! I can't even believe it!!

11/26/2021

Me and Pops could not be more delighted to be going and picking up this beautiful kitty today! We are on the way to Bismarck North Dakota, and by morning we'll have her to her forever home 💕💕🐾🐾

11/24/2021

The new kid is a bit clingy 🥴
She is all set to become a certified medical service animal, and if anyone would be so inclined, I would love it if you would take a look at and possibly share this GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/7acc9447
Thanks!!

Hi frens!!! We'll be back on the road soon, but for now here's a peek into what we do at home 💞 (he loves it, I swear)

09/01/2021

I know that pictures were posted of these babies, as well as the review that they so nicely articulated and left for us regarding this job,
BUT. have you heard their music!?!?
I can genuinely say that even being in the car with them 4 hours I really didn't get sick of this "noise" haha. It was nowhere near "screaming baby" or "crying puppy" status, and it was more of just a really cute theme song and/or background music for the trip :)
It wasn't piercing or in any way unpleasant, in fact, I kind of missed it after dropping them off haha. The car seemed way too empty and quiet coming home.
With jobs like this, I think it's really nice to have somebody there with me just to help ensure that these animals get the best possible care and attention!
I hope you enjoy their songs as much as we did! 😁

08/26/2021

Don't forget we love all critters here! We adopted this Maniac awhile back and he's been nothing but fun and love 💜💜

08/26/2021

Poor fella. He really tried 🤣 The rest of the walk was uneventful, of course

08/22/2021

Throwback to one of the first puppers we transported on an in state run, this baby had no idea what was happening and may have never been on a long car ride before haha and she was so scared at first! This didn't go on very long though! We did everything we could to make her comfortable and happy, making several extra stops for her and giving lots of extra love! It wasn't long after this video she decided she was okay with the ride and then spent most of the rest of it asleep :) it's super important to help these babies feel safe but sometimes for a minute you just got to let em get it out and tell you all about it haha.
**Disclaimer, do not worry this pup was very safely secured for the ride, she was momentarily being a lap dog just to help her feel a little better because she was upset in the car at first**

08/14/2021

I'm so happy when I can ease people's minds and it's nice to know that they can relax and trust that I'm gonna get their baby to them safe, happy and healthy :) I treat any pup or other critter as though it's my own for as long as they are with me! Can't help it, just comes naturally.

08/11/2021

After dropping Gaston in DC, I headed straight that day 6 hrs down to Oak Island NC (yes I did take a moment to see the ocean 🥰) and pick up this beautiful rescued retired racing greyhound named Sarge. He was about the goodest most sweet tempered and giant dog I've ever traveled with and it was an absolute joy to trek him up to Cincinnati to his new forever home, especially since I took the scenic route up through NC on the 40/75 and drove through blue ridge and all my favorite places! We had a blast!
