He is estimated to be three years old.He currently weighs 45 pounds and should weigh at least 60 pounds.Thank you for your interest in this sweet boy!

PLEASE HELP GRACE!
PLEASE HELP POOR LITTLE GRACE!
Her suffering at the hands of her cruel and neglectful owners is unimaginable!
We were contacted by another rescue organization to help poor Grace.
She was rescued from her horrific situation tonight!
We are beyond furious that she was left in this condition for months without any treatment! Grace has a huge mass on her abdomen that is so large she can barely walk because it drags the ground. Her skin is infected and raw. She is in immense pain and her matted fur is filthy. Grace was forced to live on the back porch all winter without any heat or dog house. We will do everything in our power to bring animal cruelty charges against her owners! PLEASE PRAY FOR GRACE & DONATE IF POSSIBLE!
She will undergo surgery tomorrow morning and we are very concerned and praying she will survive. She is only three years old and is deserving of a loving home and happy life.
PUPPY LUNA UPDATE:
She survived her major surgery yesterday which included removing 8 inches of her intestines due to a linear obstruction. She is feeling better this morning and even ate a little bit! Please continue to pray for her strength and survival!
UPDATE ON BETTY:
She is getting better and stronger every day! We know that her survival is miraculous! Several veterinarians thought she would not survive. She was fighting so hard to live and we had to fight for her! Thank you for your prayers for this loving pet turkey.
Raja Mujtaba has her at his sanctuary and sent us this video tonight. He is taking excellent care of sweet Betty!
PLEASE HELP BETTY!
This is a first for us. A very sweet pet turkey was viciously attacked by a neighbor’s dog. Her owners were unable to provide veterinary care and surrendered her to an experienced avian friend, Raja Mujtaba, late last night. Raja is only 19 years old! He cleaned her wounds and safely removed hundreds of maggots. He administered antibiotics & anti-inflammatory medications. Miraculously, she survived overnight! No emergency hospitals would see an injured turkey last night! He called 5!
Raja reached out to us and we found a veterinarian to treat Betty early this morning! She is a very sweet turkey and will be available for adoption if she pulls through. PLEASE DONATE if possible! As our supporters know, we love ALL creatures and are grateful to be able to help Betty! In the video, Raja refers to the turkey as a he, but once he cleaned the wounds, he realized it was a female and named her Betty!
UPDATE ON MOMMA CAT:
Dr. Hedrick began her emergency surgery not expecting the unborn kittens to have survived, but miraculously ALL 5 KITTENS WERE ALIVE!
That makes a total of 6 healthy kittens including their littermate born on Wednesday! Momma is still at the hospital recovering. She doesn’t have enough milk to nurse her babies, so our Vice President, Eve, is bottle feeding them. Thank you for your prayers and donations. We are so grateful for enabling us to save this beautiful family!
Rescued puppies enjoy their new life!
UPDATE ON THE 4 PUPPIES we rescued from the hoarding situation in Randolph County, NC:
Our wonderful Vice President and head of rescue, Eve, is fostering them and her personal rescued dogs are loving them and being incredible surrogate moms and dads! These beautiful puppies spent their entire lives locked inside a filthy crate! After being bathed, vaccinated, dewormed and treated for fleas and ticks they are looking, feeling and smelling SO MUCH better! Thank you for your generosity and compassion for these cuties!
MIRACLE SPARKY in his new home!
MIRACLES REALLY DO COME TRUE!
As Vice President of Susie's Hope,
I field nearly all requests for veterinary help. On Sunday, July 3rd, I answered a desperate plea for assistance regarding a hit by car dog that was on the verge of being dumped roadside with severe injuries. Thank God, Melissa, intervened and saved Sparky’s life! She is truly his guardian angel!
One of my dearest friends, Dr. Maria Puschinsky, took over Sparky’s care at High Point Veterinary Hospital on Tuesday, July 5th. His pelvis is severely fractured and he may eventually need surgery, but he is walking well considering his injury!
He is also heart worm positive. I went to visit Sparky again on Monday at the hospital and I could tell that Dr. P had fallen completely in love with him. I asked/begged her to please consider adopting him! Today, Sparky was officially adopted! I cannot even begin to tell you how much Sparky will be loved every second of his life! I’ve been rescuing for nearly 30 years and I know without question that God had a plan for Sparky’s life! We are so grateful to everyone involved in saving Sparky and helping him find his way to the loving home he was destined for! We could not save lives without your generosity and support and we are so extremely grateful and so is SPARKY!
Susie is doing so much better! Keep the prayers coming. She is walking on her own, as before she couldn’t!
OUR SWEET NATHAN!
UPDATE ON NATHAN:
The internal medicine specialist repeated an ultrasound this morning. Sadly, our Nathan does indeed have foreign bodies in his stomach. They must be removed in order for him to be able to eat. The only way to save his life is surgery tomorrow morning. Due to his weakened condition, anesthesia and surgery is very risky. In order to give him the very best odds of survival, Nathan received a second blood transfusion today. He needs your prayers more than ever as he bravely faces yet another battle for survival. Everyone is completely in love with him! Everyone is praying and hoping for the best possible outcome for our precious Nathan. We are overcome with gratitude for your unbelievable generosity in donating towards his critical care. His hospitalization and specialty care is now over $10K. We will update tomorrow after his surgery. Again, please, please pray for our sweet boy!
PLEASE HELP PUPPY TYSON!!!
TYSON needs our help!!!
He is the sweetest puppy! Tyson was completely healthy until 3 weeks ago when he began exhibiting neurological issues. His owners surrendered him to a local veterinary hospital because they simply could not afford diagnostics. Tyson needs advanced imaging such as an MRI/CT scan and a spinal tap to determine the best treatment for him.
We need to raise $2500!
The veterinarian currently treating him believes he has an autoimmune disorder or an infection of the central nervous system. Please pray for him and donate if you can. He is only 6 months old and deserves to be properly diagnosed and treated!
Susie had a really good visit with Eve Roser, Vice President of Susie’s Hope, yesterday! She was so excited to see her! Once Susie meets someone she never forgets them and when she sees them again gets so exited. Susie had a really good day yesterday and had lots of energy. Today isn’t quite as good, but we are staying optimistic. Please keep praying for her! We love you all!!
UPDATE on SUSIE: She is doing so much better today! She had a visit from a dear friend that she hadn’t seen In a while to pray healing over her! Susie was so excited to see her, and that tail was just a wagging! She has walked around on her own for the past two days, and wonting to hang out with the pack! We are believing for another miracle for her and waiting to get a MRI on the 16th! In the mean time I am Experimenting on my own with some homeopathic patches from a sweet friend and a healthy diet. Keep up the prayers and Susie says Hello! Love to all!!

Look at Babygirl go!
Update on Babygirl:
On Saturday we received a call from a very concerned citizen who observed a dog living outdoors dragging itself around the yard with no use of its hind legs . We immediately went to the home and her owner readily surrendered her to our care. He stated in a very matter of fact tone that she had been hit by a car two years ago and she never received any veterinary care. He allowed Babygirl to suffer outside in this condition for the past two years! We were both furious and heartbroken! This sweet baby flew across the yard to greet us, pulling herself completely with her front legs and dragging her back legs behind her. Her rear legs showed the painful scars of years of dragging her legs. Babygirl eagerly and willingly allowed us to put her in the van. She seemed to know that she was finally being rescued and she showered us with affection and doggy kisses . After working with her on a medicine ball to try and strengthen her back legs, we were thrilled to see her attempt to use her legs after two years of immobility. She pushes up and seems excited to be upright with the ball and the sling support we’re using . She had her veterinary visit today and we have formulated a suggested plan to purchase her a rear support device and immediately begin physical therapy in hopes that she may possibly walk again. Worse case scenario she will be a happy mobile girl with her rear handicap support device. Our goal is to raise enough donations to help with the extensive physical therapy that Babygirl will require . Thanks for all of your love, prayers and support ! We are truly blessed and forever grateful!
Thanks Giving prayers and support! Meet Babygirl! Her story will touch your heart. It’s a sad situation but hopefully things will turn around for her! We appreciate your support! God Bless and Happy Thanksgiving!
ASPEN: Look at this precious baby trying to walk! What a fighter he is!!
