Our Best Friends Rescue

We are a group of animal lovers who came together through the same passion. We help the innocent animals that have been cast aside and forgotten by society
(76)

We are a group of volunteers who started helping to re-home local animals in need. A few of us got together and started Our Best Friends Rescue so we could work together and be able to save more lives as a group. As time went on we started to grow little by little. Some people stayed, some branched out on their own and so many more came on board to help save the lives of the voiceless. Many animal

s are left in shelters due to changes in life circumstances, they are dumped because their caregiver and companion goes into a nursing home, some other type of facility or passed away and the family doesn’t want to be bothered. Others are dumped because of their age or health. Some are just unwanted, like a gift to someone that didn’t really want a pet, a child where a divorce is happening and the parents want the child to be happy, some are considered an accessory until it needs veterinary care or grooming. Some people just think of them as property. Some only like puppies. We could go on but we think the gist of it is pretty clear. Think of a place where old dogs, sick dogs, abused dogs, abandoned dogs, puppy mill cast offs and unwanted dogs all came together to rest, to learn, to live, to play, to be the dog they were always meant to be but never given the chance. Where food doesn’t need to be fought for or scavenged and love overflows. The only choice they need to make is which couch or dog bed to lay on and which new friend they should choose to smother with kisses. Just a place for dogs to be dogs. To wait in the comforts of a foster home until they can find a family of their own who won’t throw them away when they are old or sick or even dying. To know they are loved for who they are, at this moment, and then to love us in return regardless of their past. To be the model of forgiveness and in return teach us to be better, kinder humans and to always know that even if in a small way we can always make a difference. This is the place we strive to be. This is our mission. This is our rescue. A home for so many souls other humans have discarded and we can’t imagine life without them. Some of the dogs we take in are severely handicapped and have no other chance but us. These dogs are considered permanent foster pups. Unless an adopter is specifically looking for a special needs dog and are stellar in every way these dogs stay with us for the rest of their lives. Some of the animals come in for nothing more than hospice care and to have a place to rest their heads for the remainder of their days while being loved and nurtured. When their time comes to cross the bridge we stay right by their side. No creature should have to pass alone and frightened. We advocate against cruelty, neglect, backyard breeders, puppy stores and other issues that cost animals their lives. We also advocate for local low cost spay and neuter so that we can alleviate unwanted litters, as well as advocating for low cost euthanasia so that when a person on a fixed income has to let go of their precious companion, a heartbreaking experience at best, they don’t have to leave them in a shelter to be put to sleep on a metal table under blaring fluorescent lights with strangers who don’t care a lick about them. So in looking back on this mission we all take so seriously and are so passionate about, it’s about love. Love for the ones who can’t help themselves. They are the ones that we stand for. It’s because once you’ve seen how cruel people can be you can never unsee it. So on we go.

🇺🇸 Did you know......
Today there are more than 2,000 dogs on active duty with American military forces. They may serve in combat, protection, and search and rescue, but their greatest talent is their ability to sniff out explosives. No matter how sophisticated a man-made device may be, it cannot out-perform a dog’s nose, which has an average accuracy rate of about 98%. There are countless members of the U.S. military, past and present, who owe their lives to a dog’s sense of smell. 🇺🇸

Today's Happy Tail was especially sweet. Former adopters who recently lost their sweet Lily Bae, who was an favorite of the rescue, and they were so sad without her and her corgi antics, saw our Cassie gurl and kinda fell in love. They gave our Lily an amazing life and as all rescue pups do, she guided momma and daddy to rescue another in her memory.
We can never replace a pup that goes to the bridge, but we can honor them by opening our hearts to another in need.
Many thanks to Tracy, who got 90 days in fb jail, you are a matchmaker extrordinare! Love you! And huge thanks to Deb for fostering this beautiful cardi girl ❤

Sometimes Happy Tails take a bit longer. Ruby aka Magenta was very patient and Ruby's tale is exactly what we pray for! This pretty senior puppo had no interest and then BOOM pawfection came along. She will help her new mommy's heart heal and she will be pampered and loved for the rest of her life ❤️
Thanks to our volunteer Kelly for always stepping up to foster our weirdos and seniors 😘
