12-6-24 GOOD NEWS! Dasher has rescue commitment with Miranda's. He will be in foster until he can go to rescue in a couple of weeks. ❤️ 😍
No one would be sad if he found a PERMANENT HOME BEFORE THEN. ☺️
I spoke w/ orig owner. Dasher is housebroken, he lived w/ a 13 lb Chi mix and a 50 lb male pittie and they had two children, 1 yr and 2 yrs old. The pittie had only been in the home for a couple of months and he and Dasher were good buddies. ❤️ 😍
‼️ UPDATE Dasher's former owner saw his post. Due to a sincerely tragic family situation, Dasher was given by the owner to a friend... and that friend took Dasher to the shelter within one day (unbeknownst to the owner until they just saw his post). Turns out Dasher was a good, loving boy, housebroken, lived with TWO BABIES & TWO OTHER DOGS! Anybody??? ‼️ ‼️
Courtesy post. Sacramento, CA - 3839 Bradshaw Rd. ‼️URGENT DEADLINE‼️Please share ‼️ Dashing "Dasher" needs adoption or rescue commitment 12-5-24. Set to be euthanized 12-6-24, time undetermined. Per the shelter, he needs to be the only dog.
Very people social and engaging. Sweet boy!

Remember, NO RAWHIDE treats for your dogs!

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨Please DO NOT BUY any of these.
THROW THEM AWAY if your dog gets one as a gift.
Giving rawhide to a dog is NEVER a good idea.

Many of these so called treats end up with the dog “enjoying” some time in a veterinary surgery over Christmas. The vast majority of these rawhide products and treats come from China.

The chews are made from cattle or horse hides and their journey starts with the hides being soaked in a toxic sodium sulfide to remove the hair and fat. More chemicals are used in order to split the hide into layers which is then washed with hydrogen peroxide to give the white “pure” look and remove the rancid smell.

Now comes the pretty festive colors and the glue to form cute shapes.
On testing, these chews have shown traces of ARSENIC, MERCURY, CHROMIUM and FOMALDEHYDE.

If that wasn’t bad enough, they regularly cause INTESTINAL BLOCKAGES, POISONING from chemical residue and CHOKING.
The chews get slippery when wet and are near impossible to get hold of to save a choking dog.

Save yourself and your dog all the heartache, expense and suffering.
STAY AWAY FROM RAWHIDE!!!

Wonderful!

Dogs die. But dogs live, too.
Right up until they die, they live.
They live brave, beautiful lives.
They protect their families. And love us.
And make our lives a little brighter.
And they don't waste time
being afraid of tomorrow ..

❤️ My name is SNOOP🐶. I really need out of this coop.
I've been here for dayz. It's time to start a new phase.

❤️ I was hit by a car 🚘, but I've come so far.
Though I'm not quite a jock, once again, I can walk.
And my foot looks so cute, in my protective boot. 🥾

❤️I need out the front door by 12-4... or sad to say, I will be no more. 😞
But we can avoid all that bad if you just break me out of this pad. 😊

❤️The vet staff all loved me, that was plain to see. 😍
They said Snoop Dog is exactly how all dogs should be.
❤️And word on the street is I'm a shelter fave, for the love that I show and for the way I behave.

❤️ Everyone agrees that I love with full heart 🥰. So, don't you think that I deserve a new start?

❤️ I'm 7 years old.. and the best pup ever, I'm told.

❤️ Want to see a happy boy? Just watch me play with my toys.
AWESOME NEW VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/a60r1MU0HxE

❤️And click below to see "Snoop".... while having fun in play group.

❤️Just last week was my TV debut, but if I'm not out by the 4th, I will be through. 😞
VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FwI6wtouA0

❤️You can bring your dog🐕to meet and see if we'll be friends. But please come soon, before my time ends.

❤️ Pitties, black dogs and seniors, we don't always make it out. 😧
But me and you, let's take a different route. 😍

❤️ Come meet me at the shelter, for I'm almost out of time.
And forever I'll be yours if you will be mine. 💕💕

LOVE SNOOP DOGGY.

P.S. Rescue staff indicated that there is no further medical treatment needed for Snoop's foot at this time. Med staff suspects his lameness is neurological.

Courtesy post: looking for a home, forever or foster, for sweet, fun loving neutered male, Reese! Reese is an 8 month old , Jack Russel terrier mix , who is quiet in his shelter kennel but loves to go out for walks or to play in the yard! Reese weighs about 24.5 lbs and is happy to hang out with his favorite volunteer or staff at the shelter or chill in his kennel.He would do well in a home where he could run around outdoors and then chill by the fireplace! Reese loves food especially wet, and good treats, seems to do his business upon getting out and would make a fun, little companion for your family. If you are interested in giving this sweet boy a forever home or a foster home for a rescue such as Scooter's Pals, please reach out to me at 530-902-0933.

Please HELP!

The heater at our Sanctuary house has stopped working.

Our Sanctuary dogs and our trainer live on this property….

Because 89% of all monies received go directly to the animals (the remaining 11% is for office expenses, etc.) it is pertinent that we are financially pro-active. For this reason, we bought a home warranty plan through American Home Shield (AHS).

We recently contacted AHS to file a claim for the heating unit and AHS told us that, due to their prodict age exclusion, our current heating unit is not covered under our AHS policy/warranty.

I advise all of you who have, or will, buy home warranties, to please ask about product age exclusions and betterment clauses before buying the coverage as it is very cold here
and AHS took forever, it seemed, to not cover the repair.

I highly recommend that you do some research before signing up for this kind of whole house coverage as many homes have older heating systems and you need to know if your claim will be approved when/if your heating system breaks
The estimate to repair the unit is $3000. Any/all donations would be very much appreciated; please, if you are able and willing to help us with this expense, please know that no amount is too small!

You may donate through our web page at:
www.scooterspals.org or by mailing a check to Scooter's Pals
P.O. Box 1687
Cedar Ridge CA 95924.

Patrick Swayze once said, "They told me my house smelled like dogs, and I asked them, do you know what a dog smells like?" It smells like gratitude, loyalty, nobility, affection, pure unconditional love. And in spite of all they've been through, they smell no resentment. So blessed that my house smells like dogs.
