💔🐾 HARLEY UPDATE — THE FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER 🐾💔

Harley made it through surgery, but he still has to fight for his life 😢

Harley lost 2.5 feet of intestines and required two separate intestinal resections. His body went through a massive trauma, but sadly, that was the “easiest” part. The 50/50 prognosis is all about the recovery 🙏

The next 7 days are critical. Every single day is a gamble to see if Harley lives… or if his body cannot recover 💔😭

With intestinal resection surgery, these are the serious, life-threatening complications we are watching for:

😥 The reconnected intestines may fail to heal together
😥 The sutures can leak or rupture, causing septic infection
😥 His body could reject the repair altogether

He is exhausted, heavily medicated, in pain, but still fighting with everything he has. And as if this emotional toll wasn’t enough, the financial weight continues to grow. The bill, as of last night, is $7,448. We have $1,123 raised.

We still have a long way to go, but appreciate every single person who has donated, shared, prayed, and stood with Harley.

We are not giving up on him 💔

P.S. They found pieces of an “ADOPT ME” leash in his intestines 😢

🆘 URGENT: Please Help Save Harley’s Life 🆘

I’m writing this with a heavy heart and shaking hands…Harley is fighting for his life at Grady Vet 💔

He needs to have an intestinal resection — a major, invasive, and extremely risky procedure that happens as a result of an obstruction. This means surgeons must remove a damaged portion of his intestines and reconnect the healthy sections, hoping his body can survive the trauma and heal without complications such as infection, leakage, or organ failure.

Harley is only 5 years old. He is gentle, loving, and not the kind of dog who gets into things he shouldn’t, which makes this entire situation even more shocking and devastating 😢

This surgery was worse case scenario and one of the most critical procedures a dog can undergo. His prognosis is 50/50 😭

I need your help to give him the literal fight of his life. He deserves more time. More belly rubs. More love 💔

If you have ever loved a dog, if you’ve ever had one look at you the way Harley does, and trust you with their whole heart, 🥺 please consider helping Harley 🙏

His surgery is estimated to cost $6,000, but his life is priceless…Please donate if you can. Please share if you can’t.

$1,123/ $6,000 RAISED

12/31/2025

As we wrap up this year… and prepare to step into a new one… our hearts are incredibly heavy.

Over the past 10 years, we have helped around 500 dogs. We never kept count because we never believed in NUMBERS. We believed in QUALITY homes, second chances, and in the dogs everyone else had already given up on — the seniors, the broken, the scared, and the “unwanted” ones 💪

Those were our dogs. And they still are.

Right now, we still have 6 dogs and 1 cat depending on us. They do not know what “closing the rescue” means. They don’t know what debt is. They only know that we promised them they were safe — and that promise does not expire.

And while they are safe, that does not mean their needs are over. They still require food, medications, veterinary care, and ongoing medical treatment.

As we finish this chapter, we are carrying $5,800 in remaining debt, and we have until January 29th to pay it off.

We are not walking away from them. But we cannot do this last stretch alone.

If Furgotten Dog Rescue ever helped a dog you loved, if you ever followed their story, if you ever believed in what we stood for — please consider donating, sharing, or simply sending love and encouragement as we fight to finish this the right way 🖤

‼️CALLING ALL CHIHUAHUA LOVERS‼️

Hi! I’m Chanel 🖤 And I’m looking for my forever home… AGAIN 💔

I once had the most wonderful human. For two whole years I rode on his lap (in a wheelchair), cuddled him every day, and loved him with my whole tiny heart. Then, he got very sick and left me unexpectedly 😢 But before he left, he made sure I would come back to Furgotten Dog Rescue so they could help me find a new family.

I’m a 6-year-old Chihuahua mix, and about 10 lbs of love and sass 💁‍♀️ Once you’re my person, I’m the cuddliest, most loyal little shadow you’ll ever have 🥰 I love long walks and being close to my human.

I’m looking for a calm home with no kids or other pets — just you and me, forever 🫶

If you understand Chihuahuas, or little dogs with BIG personalities… I think I might be your girl 🥰

🚨🚨🚨 Missing Frenchie Named Tito 🚨🚨🚨

‼️‼️ $1,500 REWARD ‼️‼️

📍 TITO WAS STOLEN from his FENCED YARD in Mt. Orab, OH on 11/29.

🐕 Tito is chipped and neutered.

📸 Drones, cameras, news story, social media posts, and flyers have been tried…

😇 Per a well-known animal communicator, Tito is in a house within a 20-mile radius, he hears a lot of traffic, he is in a home with two young children (8-9), they don’t let him out much, he is trying to escape, and the family has no intention of returning him 😢

If this is true, I hope someone overhears little kids talking about a new Frenchie 😔 I hope the parents know that stealing a dog for their children makes them the WORSE PARENTS OF THE YEAR 😡

I hope the people who STOLE HIM know that an ENTIRE COMMUNITY of animal lovers will NEVER stop looking for Tito 💪

☎️ PLEASE contact Tito’s owner Amber at 513-312-0242 with any leads.

🎁🐾$5 FRIDAY- BE A SANTA PAWS TO ELSA🐾🎁

I know this rescue usually helps dogs. But this Christmas, Santa unexpectedly heard from a cat 🐈

We thought Elsa was the perfect name—because she’s basically an ice queen—but she has made it very clear she does not want to be building any snowmen. ❄️☃️

Elsa was found trying to survive below-freezing temperatures in an Amazon box with a blanket inside—a well-intended gesture, but a DANGEROUS one in winter. Frozen blankets can actually cause hypothermia and death— use straw!

Elsa is incredibly friendly and likely once an indoor pet. She even had a flea collar on—but who knows how long she was mistaken to be “owned” for wearing one 😢 She was never chipped or spayed, which should NEVER happen if you let your cat outdoors 😔😡

Anyways, the point is that she didn’t belong outside in the cold.

Now, Elsa is safe in a temporary foster home. She is warm, but she still needs help to move forward…

🩺 Elsa needs ALL her vetting, including:
• Combo test
• Vaccinations
• Spay appointment on January 8th

This Christmas, you can be Elsa’s Santa Paws 🎅
Your donation will go directly toward her medical care and give her the opportunity to find a warm, loving home 🥹

💫 Because sometimes…even cats need Christmas magic 🎁

12/17/2025

Dear Santa,

Hi. It’s me. Harley. The last dog still in rescue. No pressure or anything.

I’m writing to ask for a few things this Christmas. I’ve been very good. And by “good,” I mean I have not barked at any strangers or committed any crimes—despite having every reason to in my early youth. So… growth.

🎄Here's what I want for Christmas, and that comes down to only wanting one thing... a FOREVER HOME.

That's it. That's the list.

I’ve been in rescue my entire life. Literally. Since I was a puppy. I was originally with another rescue after I was found hit by a car. Here, I was shuffled around, misunderstood, and almost euthanized at 10 months old for having “stranger danger” (which, frankly, is just called having boundaries). Luckily, Furgotten Dog Rescue stepped in and said, “No, we’re not going to let a literal baby be killed for being afraid of people.”

I’ve since put in the work. Therapy? Basically. Socialization? Check. Treat-based confidence building? I could teach a class. I’m now fully adoptable, polite, handsome, and approximately 55 pounds of Lab-mix perfection.

I do have a few preferences:

🎁 I’d like adults who understand that sniffing a hand first is just good manners. Treats help. Always.

🎁 I would prefer a home without small children—they make me a little nervous. Not because I’m mean or unsafe—I’m just sensitive and prefer calm vibes.

🎁 I would enjoy another companion— dog or cat. I go to doggy daycare at Allie’s Walkabout, where I am widely regarded as “a good boy.” I love other dogs.

I love cuddling. I will absolutely be your best friend once I decide you’re safe, which won’t take long if you bring snacks and don’t act weird.

Santa, I’ve been waiting over four years. I think I’ve earned my turn. I don’t need a mansion or a Tesla or even a fancy orthopedic bed (though I wouldn’t say no). I just want someone to choose me on purpose.

So please, this Christmas, if you could slide a calm, kind, emotionally mature human down the chimney and into my life, I would greatly appreciate it.

I’ll be on the couch. Waiting.

Love,
Harley🎄🐾

‼️FOUND CAT‼️

📍 Newport, KY

This is a long shot, but we are hoping Facebook can do its magic 🙏

This sweet female cat was found taking shelter in an Amazon box during freezing temperatures. She was wearing a flea collar, but has no microchip. She is SAFE and warm now in a spare bedroom.

She is extremely affectionate, drinking large amounts of water (suggesting her water source had been frozen or unavailable), and we believe she was once someone’s pet. Estimated 7–9 years old.

We are holding her for 5 days to locate an owner. If no owner is found, she will need a foster or foster-to-adopt home.

Dear Santa,

My name is Sally, and I’m a very good girl.
I may be a senior, but don’t let that fool you — I still have plenty of pep, cuddles, and opinions.

I’m a hospice pup because my heart is tired, my red blood cells don’t regenerate, and my eyes don’t work anymore (but that just means I know the house by vibes). I’ve been through a lot in my life — bred too many times, then tossed aside — but somehow, I still love people with my whole heart.

I eat well, drink well, use my pet steps like a pro, and nap like it’s an Olympic sport. What I want most is to be someone’s shadow. I get a little anxious when my people leave, and Santa… I just really want someone who’s home a lot, who will talk to me, spoil me, and let me be glued to their side.

For Christmas, I’m asking for:
🎁 A cozy home where the furniture doesn’t move
🎁 A human who understands accidents happen
🎁 Heart meds and eye drops twice a day (easy, I promise)
🎁 Unlimited cuddles, naps, and reassurance
🎁 And someone who believes love matters most at the end

I’m happy where I am and safe — but if you know a hospice angel who wants to make a difference in my final chapter, I promise I’ll give them everything I have left.

Love,
Sally 💗🐾
