We had a donor pay on our vet bill….this should be what we owe in the morning (Monday 7/7). We have two dogs going in that cannot wait. We have 7 refills of high dollar meds that can’t wait. And we have 3 surgeries this week…none of them can wait either or we risk losing the dogs.

So…can you please call in and donate to the vet? OR please donate to us directly….I promise you every darn penny we get goes to care for these dogs and we have to pay that vet bill.

We have mobile clinic on the 26th for about 30 dumped and abandoned dogs…our rescue is in trouble. We cannot have “unfixed” dogs running loose here and we just flat do not have the funds.

Any help you can give….means the world to these dogs…

Recently…some people moved. And it’s an endless story….they didn’t take the dogs. Just left them. There were 10 pups and the parents. 5 pups died of parvo…so after feeding them for weeks, spending a fortune in gas to make the trip, the water was cut off. We hauled water for about a week….but our chores here are just overwhelming….so we made room where we didn’t have room. To do anything else makes us complicit in the death and destruction of 7 dogs. 🥵🥵🥵This heat…man, you can’t leave living creatures penned up without water. I wonder that neighbors were so callous they would just let those dogs die and smell the rot rather than feed and water them…oh well, that’s life in the country. We deal with it every day. 😠😠😠

But for these 5 young ones….there’s life instead of death! And you can sure help! That is 5 pups & 2 adults added to this months clinic for spays, neuters, hw tests on the parents, microchipping, rabies, and booster shots for the pups. We gave the adults and pups their first sets of shots….but it’s a large ding in our wallet.

So how about a name game to help with vet costs? For very $5 donation…you get to throw 1 name in the hat & we will draw them next week! We need to defray the vet costs by a bit…so really hope everyone participates….you at least have one $5 you can spare to help these pups? Step one: Donate $5 Step two: put a name in comments. They are half Queensland Heeler pups….dad is a white GSD mix. Beautiful ears on the whole set!

1. QHB1 = BOY
2. QHB2 = BOY
3. QHG1 = GIRL
4. QHG2 = GIRL
5. QHG3 = GIRL

PLEASE consider helping us with this vet bill, but the time we get everything done for 7 dogs we hadn’t planned on taking in…we will need $1500 and that is only if the 2 adults are not heartworm positive. Let us pray! 🙏🙏 Our rural rescue just cannot keep up the pace with all of the problems dogs have in this area. We really need help…we are floundering here. At some point…someone will have to see the good we do. Sad that it hasn’t happened yet.

Everyone knows it's HOT in TEXAS! Our people work out in this heat taking care of ALL these dogs...it's what we do! We never know whether to say names of donors...most do not want you to out them. But we got this with instructions NOT to raffle it...we got all kinds of flavors and recipe books to go with it! This thing has run non-stop since we figured out how to set it up and get it running!
Sometimes gift to the crew are just to precious for any thank you we could give!

When people think of our crew! These people work tirelessly for these dogs 7 days a week. When this happens....everybody's step is so much lighter! Please thank Crystal for thinking of our dog smelling crew! So wonderful to get clean at the end of a long hot day!

Just Da’ Facts, Mam!

We have had to buy a ton of dog food…which depleted our cash! And now woefully short on cash. It’s really pressing on the rescue to get some stock…some are low…some are completely out! Please take a look at our Amazon list!

Potty pads….really out…really important!
Fans for outside dogs….we only need 2!
Salmon oil – did you know it helps combat cherry eye?
Lime – takes out fleas, flies…other critters…safe for dogs…we need lots!
Need at least 4 bags of purina one….we can’t get it local.
All kinds of canned…as much as we can get…any kind!
Diatomaceous earth…anybody with animals….very important and we have two sizes on the list!
Lots of doggie bones…milk bones…Lots!

BMAR is struggling…just one or two items will help…you have no idea!

Here’s the list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3HIK11CDY8QHE?ref_=wl_share

Let me tell you about…CHICKEN FEET! 🤪🤪 When you have LOTS of dogs…you just gotta find something that works…voila! Chicken Feet! These things act like a natural toothbrush….all the chewing going on scrapes the tartar off. Side effects? You betcha! The also are all natural hip and joint supplements…low in fat, high in protein, high in collagen which of course helps to relieve in joint pain. Also aids in skin health and bone loss. They are all natural..and a by product…so it’s about the best alternative to rawhide (which we NEVER feed) and we don’t have to brush teeth as often. Ever tried to brush 400 sets of teeth?? 🤪🤪😁😁Yep, we don’t like that either!

So we just ponied up for a box of 800 chews…@ $224.99 and could you please donate a little of that back to us? If you don’t want to send us actual money….how about ordering a few more boxes (yikes! We put smaller boxes at smaller prices) on our emergency list cause we don’t think Daddy Warbucks out there wants to drop the dough for 800 feets!

The King has left the building.....

Back in 2018 a King came to live with us at BMAR. He has some issues with other dogs and people too it seems. He was with one of those fancy rescue/boarding facilities in Dallas...you know...the ones that always get the big donations? They have the hype, the glory, the photo ops and everyone falls for that crap. Petropolitan to be exact. And what they have are secret back rooms, airless, windowless that they lock the dogs in 24 hours a day... And then they have a spat, break up, and leave....just abandoning the dogs to whatever. The pic on the left is what he looked like there...collecting all those donations....pretty sad, huh? they also sent us pics of the dungeon he and Smoky were kept in.
But for King & Smokie they came here. The single pic is his play yard after being at BMAR for a bit. He did have issues with other dogs but there did come a time where he could have playmates. He did have issues with people. I think he was one of those type of dogs that got fed up with being mistreated. After a few months...he settled down with people. No longer abused, pulled on, shoved around....he got used to pockets full of treats, trusting him to walk to play yard, trusting him to put himself back up...he decided he liked people. A striking looking boy with a warm heart. But the damage had been done, we couldn’t allow him in public so he was constantly looked over and passed over for adoption. That is why BMAR has sanctuary....King was always welcome here. And actually became kind of a favorite with the crew. When a dog is going to be long term, we are free to bond to them. Myron liked fooling with the old boy, as did I. hailey always had some treats for the boy too. And tail wags anytime JR came by...wiggled that butt off!
Age crept up on our rescued lad...and cancer developed 2 years ago. We staved it off with meds and vet visits...but the tumors grew recently and it was clear we had a problem. They were on his groin...he lost weight and began to have difficulties with urine. The heat of our relentless summers was not his friend. I happened to be working in another section on Tuesday when my buddy got wind of me or heard my voice across two sections and started raising cane. Thinking there was a problem I headed to the back to check up...but it was only King and he wanted me to come see him. He was so happy to see me...but he wanted me to see his belly hurt. He kept showing it to me...and when I examined him he cried. It was painful. Hard decisions are not easy...but it was clear that he would not last the summer in this heat and we have a policy that no dog should be in pain.
He was too ill to enjoy his pup cups....but he wasn’t too ill for a comforting hand. And we let him go.... King will be missed and will always have a place of honor here. Never forgotten, never abandoned.
As always.... we need donations for sanctuary dogs. King & Smoky never had sponsors....so even a 1 time donation in their memory helps another sanctuary dog.
