We have found ourselves needing help again.
We have dogs going into boarding for the weekend while I'm on transport and having to pick up dogs in Missouri to be returned to our rescue.
Without fosters we are forced to board dogs and paying for transport from Chicago to Missouri.
With vet bills and van payments, gas, maintenance, insurance and vaccine and food costs we are too low.
If you can find in your heart to help us out we would really appreciate it. More than you know.
It takes a village to save these babies.

Please....please...

URGENT...
These babies need FOSTERS..
I know its alot to ask since we have NO ONE standing up to foster. But..I'm begging..
Bjorn and Torvi were adopted 2 yrs ago and after being abandoned at their home, malnourished they ended up in the Chicago shelter to be euthanized. We can't leave them.
We found transport for Wednesday to Missouri for us to meet and get them back.
We need a place for these two to go.
Would love for them to go together but they don't have to.
After everything they have been through they are still super sweet and love other dogs.
They are both altered and weigh about 45 lbs.
Can anyone help these babies ????

We need help with one if our dogs in our Rescue..
Momo needs a trainer. Positive re enforcement Only.. one that won't break him.
No shock collars.
He is beyond my abilities.
Momo is a vezsla mix.
Strong headed, strong minded and super energetic.
He was abused as a puppy and is terrified of men and children.
He is only a little over a year and has been in our rescue most of that time.
He has been bounced from foster home to foster home.
He needs to build confidence to be able to be adopted.
He is house trained and his kennel is his safe place.
He walks on a leash well but is cautious around men and children. No aggression at all. He really is a sweet, cuddlebug but just doesn't want to listen.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
We are nonprofit and rely on donations so we can't afford alot.
Momo needs help so he can find his forever, loving home.

PLEASE SHARE...
Brian is still with us...
He and 10 others from a cruelty case.
There were 58 dogs In one small house living in crates, in their own filth. Never had seen the outdoors until they came to the shelter and then into our rescue.
They were scared and un socialized. Their outcome was bleak but we believed that they deserved a great life instead of euthanasia.
With alot of work Brian has become a cuddlebug.
Brian loves other dogs to play with and is potty trained now through a dog door.
He loves to sleep with you at night and is catching onto sitting for a treat.
Brian is ready for a loving family. He will be shy at first but warms up pretty quickly.
There is no perfect dog but with love they can become YOUR perfect dog.

We don't know what she would be like around cats but older kids she loves.
She is doing pretty well with her fetch abilities and is Crate trained. We are still working on house training but she is catching on quickly.

Meet Onyx...
Onyx is desperately looking for a foster or foster to adopt !!
Can anyone help her ???
The odds are against her from the start. She is a pitty, she is black and she weighs 75 lbs. A sure sign she would have lost her life in an Overcrowded shelter in Texas. 😪 Onyx is a spayed female, heartworm neg, Current on all vaccines and microchiped.
Underneath her shiny black coat is an awesome girl 🤩
She is a young lady at 3 yrs old. She is house and crate trained, gets along with all humans even young children.
She loves to play with other dogs and doesn't even mind cats. 😜
She is kind of Goofy or even clumsy at times when at play and trip over her own paws. But oh the look on her face after to make sure no one was looking is pricless.
Her facial expressions can almost tell you what she is thinking.
Onyx was left tied in a backyard after her family moved and abandoned her to starve. From a family of adults and children to a chain in the yard.
She used to live Inside with her family and really was spoiled until the day they left.
She waited and cried for them but no return.
After being abandoned she was still that happy girl when they rescued her and fed her.
She NEVER lost that love for human kind.
LETS NOT LOOSE THAT LOVE FOR HER !!!!
Please contact...
Highwayhoundstx.org for more info.
She is located in Texas but transport is available and a partner rescue is willing to help.

"IT TRULY TAKES A VILLAGE...
From shelter staff, networkers, rescues, transport and mostly FOSTERS.
It sure took a village for Wolfie. 🥰
This great guy had found himself at the shelter again.
The first time his family came and got him. This time they refused and just didn't care what happened to him.
He became the staff favorite super fast with his great charm.
For months sitting in a run at the shelter. He proved he was house trained and could even do some commands.
He was on the code red list but EVERYONE was trying for him. Being a larger black dog he kept getting passed. No one wanted a dog like that. 😭
Finally a rescue in Texas teamed up with a rescue in Colorado and started the wheels turning. Lots of posts, pics, phone calls and we found an awesome foster in Texas to open their home to him for a week until transport.
Funny how things change in Rescue. On a dime..
Just an hour after foster getting Wolfie the Colorado rescue had found a foster to adopt family and the family was so excited they didn't want to wait. A flight it is for wolfie🤪 set for less than 24 hrs after getting him out of the shelter.
The running really starts at this point.
The awesome foster went above and beyond for this guy. Calling vets to see who could do vaccines and health certificate on such short notice also searching for a crate for him to ride in on his travels to Denver.
Low and behold she found a vet. That same evening of welcoming him Into her home she loaded him in the car again and off to the vet.
Waking up early the next morning it's up on your feet and running to grab a crate and make sure he gets on his flight at 10 am.
All the while she has her toddler and husband to care for as well.
We can't express how much this means to us.
We can't express how important fosters are for saving lives.
All we can do is just keep on doing what we do saving one set of paws at a time.
Below are pics of Wolfies journey from leaving the shelter to his new home in Colorado in just less than 24hrs.
