🚨BREAKING NEWS: The USA is apparently at war with Iran.🚨

Cool, cool, cool. Meanwhile, we’re STILL over here tending to all the animals that people gave up on, while also trying to raise $200,000 to buy this facility before the clock runs out on Dec.31st, 2025.

Respectfully, if this war between immature adults in different countries affects our ability to or threatens the lives of the animals here in anyway… So help me god, I will flip this entire planet upside down over night.

So, if you need us, we’ll be busy waging OUR war — the one where we save this damn facility by Dec. 31st and all of the animals in it.

Want to help us win that war? Here is how you can donate:

-PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/ForTheSakeRescue

-Venmo: (last 4 digits to confirm are 5488, please make sure you don’t send $$ to a scam account!)

-Cashapp: $FTSOBHRescue

-Mail a donation directly to the facility located at 2525 Bluestar Hwy Fennville Michigan 49408.

If you aren’t going to rally behind us for the next 6 months to help save our facility…. Unfollow this page right MEOW- because we won’t be tolerating haters on this journey.

Sincerely- An exhausted Rescue Director who is fed up with the entire planet- and probably has enough built up rage within herself to dismantle a whole country, if need be 🙃

P.S- In no way, shape, or form, is this post showcasing our personal political views… we simply don’t have the time for a petty war right now… we have animals and a facility to save!

❤️🐶Hospice Foster home needed for bonded pair of chihuahuas! 🐶❤️

This adorable bonded mother and daughter pair came to us after their owner passed away several months ago.

After some medical care and evaluation it has been determined that Malldy- the mother, doesn’t have a whole lot longer left on this earth… but her daughter Goldie has several years left! So, for the remainder of Malldy’s days, we would like her to be in a foster home that allows her to stay with her daughter.

Malldy is almost completely blind, hard of hearing, and very frail but still very spunky and motivated to eat and move around!

Due to Malldy’s age, she is not able to be spayed. But she and Goldie do both need to see our vet for dentals sometime soon, and at that time Goldie (the daughter) will be spayed.

Goldie is a total sweetheart that just wants to be in your lap!

They are both eating a mixture of hard and wet food, but Malldy prefers the wet food. They are also both super dog friendly, cat friendly, and good with kids!

ALL medical and food/supply costs will be covered by us, all you have to do is provide them with a safe and loving environment and maybe take them to a few vet appointments for us!

Once the day comes that Malldy crosses the rainbow bridge, Goldie can go up for adoption on her own (honestly, she would do fine without her mom, but her mom needs her!)

If you are interested in fostering this pair, please send us a message on Facebook!

We are making the choice to Cancel our June 8th low-cost vaccine clinic that was supposed to take place this Sunday. Several things, including weather and signage delays have led us to this decision.

We will be rescheduling for a date in the near future, but at this time we do not have an agreed upon date. (Aiming for mid June or beginning of July.)

We are so sorry for any inconvenience this may cause for those who were planning to attend this weekend. We will announce our next clinic date with plenty of notice and hope to see you there!

Miracle is more than just her name — she’s a survivor, a fighter, and the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet. Around 3–4 years old and medium-sized, this beautiful pittie mix came to us from Texas, where she and her puppies were placed on a euthanasia list. We saved them just in time.

All of her puppies have since found their forever homes… but Miracle is still waiting. It’s been 2 years, and while she’s kept her gentle heart and hopeful spirit, she dreams every day of a home to call her own.

Miracle is everything you’d want in a companion:

🚗 Fantastic car buddy — calm, quiet, and happy just to be with you
👩‍❤️‍👨 Loves all people and bonds deeply with her humans
🚫 Needs to be the only pet in the home — she’s happiest having you all to herself

She’s been through so much, yet she greets every day with love and patience. Miracle is fully vetted, adoption-ready, and thanks to a generous sponsor, her adoption fee is completely covered.

✨ After all she’s survived, what she needs now is simple: a soft place to land, someone to love her, and a quiet home where she can finally exhale and just be.

📄 An application is required before a meet & greet can be scheduled. Message us today to request the link and take the first step toward making Miracle’s dream come true.

Let’s find this girl her Miracle — she’s more than earned it. ❤️

Two goofballs. One forever home. Two for the price of… free!

Meet Scotty and Hank, a bonded pair of best friends who are ready to bring double the joy, double the cuddles, and double the personality into your life! 🐶💙🐶

These boys are around 3–4 years old and came from Texas, where they were cruelly dumped on a back road—abandoned, but not broken. They’ve now been with us for about 2 years, and we’ve promised them that their next stop is the forever home they both deserve… together.

Scotty and Hank are the ultimate duo—they wrestle like brothers, nap like pros, and “talk back” like teenagers. These two are full of life and charm, with big, bold, hilarious personalities that will keep you smiling all day long. They are volunteer favorites!

🐾 Cuddly, affectionate, and absolutely love human attention
🐾 Rough-and-tumble playmates, but lazy couch potatoes at heart
🐾 Must be adopted together — they’re truly inseparable
🐾 Fenced-in yard required – these boys need space to run and play
🐾 Play-date friendly with other dogs, but we recommend no other dogs in the home due to their combined energy

After they get their zoomies out in the yard, they’re all about relaxing, watching TV, and soaking up attention. If you’ve ever dreamed of having two hilarious, loving, oversized lap dogs who entertain each other and adore you—you’ve just met your perfect match.

Everyone, meet Ava – a 5–7-year-old Mastiff mix and our longest-term resident, who’s been patiently waiting for over 5 years for a home to call her own. She’s been overlooked time and time again, but never stops loving, never stops hoping, and never stops being her affectionate, goofy, lovable self.

This large-breed cuddlebug is truly one of a kind.

Say hello to Cassie, a sweet and soulful Chow/Shepherd mix who’s been waiting far too long—4 years in rescue and still dreaming of her forever home. Originally from Texas, this beautiful girl is now about 5–7 years old and ready to settle into a peaceful, loving life with you.

Cassie is the definition of laid-back. She’s calm, gentle, and totally content just hanging out with her humans. No chaos, no drama—just a loyal companion who’s happy to share your space, your quiet moments, and your heart.

💁‍♀️ She loves all people, but she’d do best as the only pet in the home. She’s not into sharing the spotlight—and once you meet her, you won’t want to share her either.

Cassie is fully vetted, adoption-ready, and her adoption fee is completely sponsored—all she needs now is someone willing to say, “Yes, this is the one.”
