Our shy boy scampered off to his happily ever after today. He is going to be a wonderful companion for his family….and they’ll provide a wonderful life for him. We’re all so happy for him.

This wouldn’t have been possible if it weren’t for our loving and dedicated fosters Cindy and Scott. They’re the best.

BARCS is unable to take in any new dogs because of a severe respiratory illness, which has placed around 30 dogs in quarantine — and others have died.

“What’s the hardest part about having a dog?” they asked, their tone casual, like it was just another question.

I glanced at the worn leash hanging by the door, my chest tightening. “Letting them go,” I said quietly.

They frowned a little, waiting for me to explain. “They come into your life like they were always meant to be there,” I said, trying to find the words. “They make everything better—simpler, brighter. And you think it’s always going to be that way. But it’s not. One day, they’re gone, and you’re left with all the space they used to fill.”

They nodded, but I wasn’t sure they understood. “It’s not the messes they made or the routines you have to let go of,” I continued. “It’s the absence. You walk into the house, and it feels... wrong. The quiet is heavier. The mornings don’t feel the same without them nudging you awake.”

“So why do it?” they asked, their voice softer this time.

I sighed, glancing down at my hands. “Because the love they give you is worth every bit of the heartache. They teach you how to love without holding back, even when you know it’s going to hurt in the end. And you keep choosing that love because you know it’s one of the best things you’ll ever feel.”

This sweet little 4-year-old Chihuahua is in search of his forever human, and he has so much love to give. His devotion and loyalty are unmatched, and he dreams of forming a deep, lifelong connection.

Trotter’s journey hasn’t been easy. He originally found himself in a shelter alongside his cherished companion, but when his friend was adopted, Trotter was left heartbroken and alone in a noisy environment. The fear and sadness he experienced led him to chew anxiously at the bars of his cage, leaving him exhausted and injured. When we learned of his situation, we knew we had to step in and bring him to a safer, loving place.

Now, Trotter is vaccinated, heartworm negative, neutered, and microchipped. He thrives on the love of his person and would do best as the only dog in a quiet home, as he can still feel overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of life. This little guy is a true velcro dog who simply wants to be by your side.

If you feel you can offer Trotter the peaceful and loving environment he deserves, we invite you to apply and welcome him into your family. www.hillhounds.org

Staying ahead of the weather with livestock in the winter is no joke. But everyone has done great so far. We’re trying to keep straw down because, you know, our pigs are….dainty. 🥶😂

Photos you can feel.

The intense fire surprised Mr. Mario Alberto, who is deaf man, in the middle of the night. His humble house and his vehicle were on fire, but his only concern was his best friend, Gordo, who was still inside him. Desperate, he even tried to put out the fire with a hose but the flames were destroying everything, including his hopes of finding his dog alive.

He kept pointing out to the firefighters that nothing mattered more than his pet and when he thought he would never see him again, suddenly in the midst of the raging flames, one of them came out with his pet.
