Meet Sweetheart Rose🌹

Rose is a 1 year old hound/staffy mix. She is a true love bug with people but the shelter stress is getting to her. We are looking for a foster to adopt for her with no other dogs and no young children. She still has puppy tendencies but staff is certain she can blossom into an amazing doggie in the right environment! Can you help this sweet girl?

if you are interested please text Kathy at 410-977-1747 or Diana +1 (410) 598-3254 Thank you❤️

Sweet Topper is a 1 year old blind and deaf doodle that we would like to keep in a home - whether it is a forever home (adopter), a foster-to-adopt arrangement, or simply someone to foster him. He is in a home now, but he does not like to be alone, so he is coming back to the shelter if we cannot find a spot for him. The current foster thinks he will do better with another dog or a person home most of the time.

Can you help? If you'd like to submit an application to adopt him, download it from our website (http://www.smallmiraclesrescue.org/adopt.shtml) and email it in - or stop by adoption hours tomorrow (Thursday) at 5 pm. If you aren't interested in adopting (or foster-to-adopt) but could foster Topper, you can comment here or (even better) message or email us.

Help! We continue to be very short on volunteers to walk dogs EVERY day at 9 am, noon and 6 pm! This morning and the past two nights, we've only had one volunteer to help staff walk all of the dogs. We make sure they get their needs met, but if we have volunteers, they can get longer walks and have fun in the SNOW! Plus then staff can focus on other needs at the shelter.

This is Tiff from Monday evening after the big snow. She's a 2 year old sweet mama dog of our "G" litter puppies - only 36 lbs! She's noisy in her crate, but get her outside and she'll show you her true personality.

If you aren't ready to adopt, how about walking and giving love to some puppers? Just stop by 10236 Baltimore National Pike, Ellicott City - you don't have to commit to a specific day or time, just come help. Thank you! (Volunteer applications are on our website, or fill one out when you arrive - it won't take long.)

UPDATE: All three pups have been adopted or will be tomorrow! 🥰 We have lots more puppies in foster care, so keep an eye on Petfinder and Facebook in the next several days!

Whose ears are your favorite???

Puppies Garth, Graham and Taco are coming in to the shelter for adoption hours TODAY (Saturday) beginning at 11:30 am. Plus, we have a number of new dogs from Texas that aren't even up on our Petfinder listing yet - the adult dogs will be available from 11-4. So stop by! 📍10236 Baltimore National Pike, Ellicott City.

You can save yourself a few minutes by filling out and bringing your completed adoption application - they are on our website: http://www.smallmiraclesrescue.org/adopt.shtml

We are in need of used towels again please!!!

Thank you to volunteers that came in yesterday despite the snow to help us get all of the dogs walked! Sassy arrived from Kentucky on Saturday, so good chance this was her first time in the snow - and she LOVED it! We need volunteers to walk the dogs 365 days/year at 9, noon and 6, and the more volunteers we have, the more time each dog can spend playing outside! Stop by today - or any day! (Walkers must be 18 years or older for liability reasons.)

We are so grateful to Wings of Rescue for flying 15 dogs and 3 puppies to us from Dallas, Texas last weekend! This photo shows one of our dedicated staff carrying sweet Tiff to our van.

Tiff has the BEST head tilt! She is super friendly and is mom to the "G" puppies that will be available for adoption in about a week. She is still available for adoption, so stop by the shelter today (Friday) between 11-3, Saturday 11-4 or Sunday 12-3. We have a bunch of other great dogs and cats too - plus we'll be bringing in some puppies from foster care over the weekend, so keep an eye out for that post.

✈️ The Lifesaving Flights Continue—2025 Starts Now!

This weekend, Wings of Rescue takes off with our first flight of the year! While we’re busy preparing for flights out of \Merced, Bakersfield, Riverside, Mobile, and Dallas/Fort Worth, heading to Washington, Canada, Utah, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Maryland, this weekend’s flight is just the beginning of a year filled with lifesaving missions.

👉 Donate now to keep our wings in the air: wingsofrescue.org/donate

Our work doesn’t stop there. Operation Pit Stop is also kicking off the year with free spay/neuter clinics in Broward County, Tampa, Miami, Indianapolis, Riverside, LA, New Mexico, Utah, and San Juan, Puerto Rico—addressing pet overpopulation before it reaches shelters.

Your support ensures every pet we fly has a chance at safety, love, and a future. Together, we can make 2025 a year of hope and action.
