One of the many reasons I love this dog… He understands the Monday blues. He also understands that we can either let it get the best of us, or we can take it and make it a good one. Be like Rambo and make it a good one. Happy Monday, y’all! 🩵

🇺🇸Let us always remember and honor the lives lost on 9/11/2001, and may we never give up hope that our nation might return to a time where we are able to experience the same love and unity we felt on 9/12/2001.🇺🇸
***********************************************************************
It was the dogs. The dogs are what got me.
A few years ago we visited the 9/11 Memorial Museum, and we saw a lot. Twisted steel girders. Baby-faced portraits of the deceased. Mutilated emergency vehicles.
But it was the dogs that wrecked me.
The dog exhibit is pretty small. Located in the far corner of the museum, with photographs of search and rescue dogs.
You see dogs nosing through rubble, wearing safety harnesses. You see them in their prime. They’re all deceased now. But they were spectacular.
There was Riley. Golden retriever. He was trained to find living people. But, he didn’t find any. Instead, he recovered the remains of firefighters. Riley kept searching for a live survivor, but found none. Riley’s morale tanked.
“I tried my best to tell Riley he was doing his job,” said his handler. “He had no way to know that when firefighters and police officers came over to hug him, and for a split second you can see them crack a smile—that Riley was succeeding at doing an altogether different job. He provided comfort. Or maybe he did know.”
There was Coby and Guiness. Black and yellow Labs. From California. Surfer dogs. They found dozens of human remains.
And Abigail. Golden Lab. Happy. Energetic. Committed. Big fan of bacon.
Sage. A border collie. Cheerful. Endless energy. Her first mission was searching the Pentagon wreckage after the attacks. She recovered the body of the terrorist who piloted American Airlines Flight 77.
Jenner. Black Lab. At age 9, he was one of the oldest dogs on the scene. Jenner’s handler, Ann Wichmann, remembers:
“It was 12 to 15 stories high of rubble and twisted steel. My first thought was, ‘I can't send Jenner into that…’ At one point, [Jenner] disappeared down a hole under the rubble and I was like, ‘Ugggggh!' Such a heart-stopping moment..."
Trakr. German Shepherd. Tireless worker. Worked until he couldn’t stand up anymore. Trakr found Genelle Guzman-McMillan, who was trapped for 27 hours among the debris. Genelle was as good as dead, until the cold nose poked through the mangled steel.
Apollo. German shepherd. An NYPD police dog. Coal-black muzzle. Liquid eyes. The first dog on the scene, only 15 minutes after the attacks. Apollo worked 18-hour days. Once, he was nearly killed in a fire during his search. But Apollo had been drenched in water and he was quick on his feet. No injuries.
Jake. Labrador. As a puppy, Jake was found on the side of the road in Dallas. Abandoned. Left for dead. Like trash. He had a dislocated hip and a broken leg. They made him a rescue dog.
Jake worked until his body threatened to collapse from exhaustion. After his shifts, local New York merchants saw his rescue-dog vest and treated him to free steak dinners in upscale Manhattan restaurants.
And, of course, there was Bretagne. Golden Retriever. Easygoing. Dutiful. Obsessed with food. Her owner and trainer, Denise Corliss, a firefighter from Harris County, Texas, brought Bretagne to Ground Zero while the rubble was still hot.
Bretagne went straight to work. She worked for 10 days solid. Ten agonizing days. Bretagne never quit. She napped onsite.
Denise recalls: “...There are images of Bretagne going to where she was directed to search, into the unknown, the chaotic environment. But even then, she knew who needed the comfort of a dog, and which firefighter needed to hold her close and stroke her fur.”
After 9/11, Bretagne also helped recovery efforts during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and Ivan. She retired at age 9.
Old age finally overtook her, she had a hard time using stairs, so Denise installed an above-ground pool to keep Bretagne’s joints limber.
In retirement, Bretagne became a reading dog at a local elementary school. First graders, too shy to read aloud, would read to a white-faced, elderly retriever who looked them in the eyes and smiled.
Bretagne visited students with special needs. She visited students with autism. She visited everyone.
She suffered kidney failure at age 16. She was put to sleep on June 7, 2016, and became the last of the 9/11 rescue dogs to end her earthly career.
Bretagne hobbled into the Cypress, Texas, animal hospital, one sunny Monday, only to discover the sidewalks and hallways were lined with firefighters, first responders, and rescue workers who saluted her.
Her remains were later escorted from the hospital, draped in an American flag.
We do not deserve dogs.

It’s a happy tails Saturday for Rosemary and her new furever parents, Loren & Austin Frisbie! Newlyweds Loren & Austin both grew up with pets and decided it was time to add a cat to their new lives together. At almost five months old, fully vetted, spayed and microchipped, Rosemary, with her playful, but laid-back personality (and those sleepy eyes 😻) was the cat for them. After visiting with her and her litter and foster mates at our adoption partner, Chipper & Coco, Loren & Austin applied for her and today they were able to take her home.
We are so grateful for the Frisbies and their desire to not just have a pet for themselves, but to purposefully provide a wonderful, loving home and life for a kitten.
Happy tails, Rosemary! You hit the jackpot! 💕💕💕
Junior’s Saturday face. Only thing that might make this always happy little hound dog happier is to find his tribe. ❤️
Happy Saturday, from Junior and his friends at CARA! 🥰

In honor of National Dog Day, we want to share little Annabelle’s special day with you guys!
Sweet Annabelle is a precious golden girl whose owner recently decided to give her up. We saw the plea on social media from a kind hearted woman who was desperate to find someone to help Annabelle, before her owner made a less than desirable choice. One look at this face, and we knew we needed to help her. I mean, she has the face of an angel and she certainly deserved the effort to find that place where she belonged, a good, safe place in which she would be loved for the rest of her days.
Last week, we got Annabelle in and settled, and she was spayed and had a dental. This week, her knight in shining armor came for her. Today, in fact. On National Dog Day. Mr. Sturdivant and his precious granddaughter came to visit us, in hopes of finding him a much needed companion. Y’all know my happy tails are very long-winded, but this one, this one is very short. Honestly, it was very difficult to tell which one loved the other the most, and that was at ‘hello’. When it’s right, you sometimes just feel it in your bones like a lightning flash. We knew immediately why we saw her picture and quickly spoke up for her… See, there was already a plan being made for her, by someone who is a Master of plans. Today was proof of that.
Mr. Sturdivant, we will forever be grateful that you chose our little angel. She is so deserving of all the love you have to share with her. We truly can’t express to you how elated we are for both you and Annabelle. She is going to be the best little companion and snuggler.
Annabelle, we saw how you reacted to your new Dad today. It’s clear that something about him reminds you of someone you loved very much. We didn’t even know you had the ability to wiggle the way you did when trying to climb into his arms to leave. Goodness, stories like yours literally bring us to our knees. We wish you all the happiness in the world, sweet little girl. You may not have realized it a week ago, but I think it safe to say that you know what a blessed little gal you are now. Have the best life, Annabelle. We sure were touched by yours. Always love, Annabelle. ❤️
Today is National Dog Day, and in response to that, we want to share this beautiful photo of one of our puppies named Edward. Edward and his two siblings were abandoned in our parking lot when they were tiny, bottle babies. Edward is now a healthy, robust 21 weeks old, and living life the way it should be, thanks to our wonderful Northern partner who was happy to bring them into Maine and help them find their happily ever afters. And if this looks like a dream picture, it’s because it is. All dogs should live this well! So many thanks to our Northern partners who literally make dreams come true for so many Southern babies. ❤️
Happy National Dog Day to all of our friends and the precious babies you guys love! 🥰 We would love to see their pics below!
Three and a half year old Bella was surrendered to our rescue partners at MARL and caught a ride on the CARA van on Valentine’s Day, while we were picking up other dogs to bring back to our shelter and help find homes for. Bella was surrendered not through any fault of hers, but because her family could no longer care for her. But man, was she a sweetheart. We followed our gut instinct which told us she was a good dog.
If you know anything about sheltering and breeds, you know that Shepherds are known to have a low tolerance for a shelter environment, particularly if they have to stay for a while. As luck would have it, Bella was HW positive and had to be treated. So that sealed the envelope for her to have a long stay with us. As time went on, Bella started showing that side of her personality that we were super hopeful she wouldn’t show. She chose her friends very carefully and slowly, and sometimes seemed to not have a fondness for any dogs. We were worried, but we kept the faith that the right person would find her.
Enter Mike Kelly. Mike saw Bella online and quickly put in an app. We were so excited, right up until we read the part about his having a female Husky mix named Slippers. Suddenly, our excitement was threatened with worry. But because we’ve learned to not judge a dog’s behavior too harshly while in the shelter, we decided it was only fair to Bella to bring him in for a meet and greet, and if that went well, then we’d gear up and have him bring Slippers to meet Bella.
Well, of course Mike loved our girl! There’s nothing to not love about Bella. A few days later, he brought Slippers. Air horns in hand, we went out to the dog park on a wing and a prayer that Bella would be nice to Slippers. Y’all, we were blown away! Bella seemed to be fine with Slippers, and Slippers is just that dog who would be fine with anyone. Bella didn’t show us any signs that she wouldn’t be accepting of having Slippers for a sister. Mike convinced us that he was prepared to work through any potential issue between the girls, and his Shepherd experience helped us to be open to taking that chance.
Mike came back and picked Bella up a few days later. The updates and pics he was sending made our hearts so happy! After a few weeks of ‘fostering to adopt’, Mike sent a message wanting to know when he could finalize on Bella, informing me that we were not getting her back, as life was good and she was his girl! All Bella needed was to get out of the shelter environment to show us all just how good she could be. Bella and Slippers are doing amazingly well, albeit with Bella as the ring leader. All she needed was that chance to prove herself.
Mike, we will never be able to thank you enough for reaching out on Bella’s behalf. You and Slippers were all our gal needed to be happy in life, though I understand that she loves her extended family to the moon and back as well! Thank you beyond any words for choosing our sweet girl!
Bella, we couldn’t possibly be happier for you! You are right where you were meant to be. The shelter wasn’t your style, and trust me, we get it! You are the sweetest girl and you deserve all the happiness. Always love, sweet Bella! 💜
Precious little Brooke, spent the first two years of her life waiting for the love she knew she deserved. And to prove it, she transformed from a broken, sad little girl to a Princess full of life and happiness in far less than the four weeks that she was with us. Brooke applied for and got the front desk position as co-worker to Harley, our Boxer, upon intake. There, she quickly learned that there was so much more to life and so many people who loved her. Her little personality came out very quickly!
And she was happy with that… Then along came the Blethens. We’re fairly certain it was at that point Brooke realized that there is obviously even much more to the good life than what she thought! Tim and Wendy are no strangers to CARA, as they have adopted from us in the past. The instant Tim met Brooke on the first day, I think it was pretty much certain, for us, anyway, that she would be going home with them. The next visit, Wendy came, and as they say, the rest is history. Brooke is now Remi, and most definitely living her best life! And we couldn’t possibly be happier or more grateful!
Tim and Wendy, thank y’all so very much for once again adopting from CARA. We love all of our adopters, but repeat adopters are perhaps a little super special. Thank you for giving our little princess the life we know she’s dreamed of, the life she was built for. It makes our hearts incredibly happy to know how much she is loved by you guys.
Remi, you are so deserving of the life the Blethens have welcomed you to! One thing is certain… You will never want for a single thing for the rest of your days. Enjoy living your best life, little princess! We sure enjoyed our short time with you! P.S. Harley also sends his love. 🩷
Some of y’all already know and get it, but for others who don’t, hours in a day are something we never have enough of. When choosing between care of our animals and spending time updating our social media page, the social media page loses every time. And unfortunately, that is a role that we have no one to fill but us. Happy new beginnings are where we get our fuel, and since it is a Sunday afternoon and there is a little time, we want to throw out some happy tails. This is literally what fuels us. 🥰
Armand came to us April 29, after being abandoned by his family and left on his chain in the backyard when they moved out. Thankfully, a Good Samaritan found him and reached out for help. Armand came to us as a baby in a big boy body, and yep, we’ve gotten quite a few of those lately! Armand has been thankful and full of love since the day we met him. Bombproof is a big word for a dog, but it is definitely accurate for this boy!
Our boy recently went HOME with the most precious family! He now has a family who treasures him and a big, older fur sister to help teach him what life is supposed to look like. And by all indications, he is catching on very quickly! He also has a new name to go with his new life, he is now Bowser Bishop!
Bishop family, we are so GRATEFUL!! We are thankful that he is blessed to share in your world and love with you guys. His heart is so big, and we are positive that he will return every bit of love that you guys share with him. He was a winner from ‘hello’! Thank you for choosing our sweet boy!
Bowser, we are so incredibly happy for you! You deserve all the love that your new family is showering you with. No more chains, no more abandonment. And have we mentioned how well you are rocking those shirts??!! We love you to the moon and back, sweet boy, and we are so very happy for you! We look forward to seeing you in November for your post-Heartworm treatment retest! Until then, so much love. ❤️

All heroes don’t wear capes. Some just walk through life making the world a better place for others and sharing their blessings with others in need. This hero’s name is Steve Grantham. Many of y’all know him as the owner of Outback Steakhouse, because who doesn’t love Outback, right? But do you know just how much this man does for his community and beyond? When there is a need, Steve is the first to jump up and offer support, and he does so with the kindest heart and most humble spirit. We at CARA know firsthand what an amazing human he is, and to us, he is nothing short of a hero.
Steve, we cannot thank you enough for the love and support you have shown our animals and our organization over the years. We have always been so grateful for you, and your visit to the shelter yesterday literally brought us to our knees. Your kindness and generosity is unmatched, and there are no words to properly thank you. Just know that you are a huge hero in our eyes, and the world is a much better place for having you in it. ♥️
LATEST CONVO WITH ARLO 8/26:
Arlo: WAIT!!! Can you please say that again?? I’m getting adopted?? And did you say my new parents are driving all the way from Connecticut to pick me up?? Can you please not wake me up if I’m dreaming??
Us: Arlo baby, you’re not dreaming! You do have new parents and they are driving down from Connecticut to pick you up! Guess what, Arlo? They were parents to another very special CARA pup one time. And tomorrow, we’ll tell you that story. Arlo, you are going to have the best parents and home in all the lands!! Hang tight! Saturday will be here before you know it! See there, we told you that you were the best boy and good things come to best boys. ❤️🐾😭
Conversation with Arlo: 😔
Arlo: Thank you for saving me from being thrown out of my owner’s truck.
Us: You’re welcome, Arlo. You’re a good boy who deserves better.
Arlo: Am I a good boy?
Us: Yes, Arlo. You’re the best boy.
Arlo: Then why doesn’t anyone want me? He didn’t want me. Now I’m here and nobody wants me.
Us: We want you, Arlo. And we will eventually find a family who wants a good, solid boy.
Arlo: Is it because I’m a black dog? Do I not play good enough with all the dogs? Do I not give good enough kisses? Am I not smart enough?
Us: No, Arlo. You play great with all the dogs and your kisses are the best. You are a very smart boy, but people are not as smart as dogs. Which is why a lot of y’all are here. People don’t know what a good dog is, anymore.
Arlo: But do you think you’ll find my people one day? I’m trying to stay hopeful, but I wonder… When do we give up?
Us: Arlo, we don’t give up. We never give up. And neither will you. Your new family will come along one day. You just keep being the best boy that you are, and one day, when we least expect it, your people will come for you. And until then, we are your people. Now you go play with your friends and keep the faith. If we can, you can.
(Arlo, a year old, sweeter than grandma’s tea, loves, loves, loves to play with dog friends and absolutely adores people, smart as the day is long and willing to learn anything, anxious to please, just another gem sitting in a shelter kennel waiting to be chosen. ♥️)

Remember Natchez? He’s still waiting for you! He’s such a good dog. Loves playing with other dogs, loves the water, Loves belly rubs! Just all around the best fella!Visit carams.org to learn more about him and apply to adopt. #untileverycageisempty
Natchez and Darling were the best of friends. They were kenneled next to each other at the shelter and had so much fun swimming and playing together every day. Darling (the beautiful blonde) finally got her day and found her forever home this past weekend. Poor Natchez (tall, dark, & handsome) is a little lost without his pal. He’s the sweetest boy with just the right balance of being playful but also just laying next to you for belly rubs (he REALLY ❤️’s belly rubs). He would love a home with another playful pup. Visit carams.org to learn more about Natchez and apply to adopt this sweet boy. #untileverycageisempty
Hazel is a fun loving girl who is so sweet and not too clingy. She is athletic and very agile. She has been at CARA since the beginning of the year and just hasn’t met her people yet. Hazel will do best as an only dog as she gets overly excited around other dogs. Because of this and her energy level she requires a fenced yard. Also, she is Heart worm positive but will start treatment soon and would really like to be in a home instead of the shelter while undergoing treatment. Please visit carams.org to learn more about fostering or adopting Hazel. #untileverycageisempty
LITTLE FRIDAY AND HIS SIBLINGS NEED YOUR HELP When another local rescue called us about these 5-week old puppies who had been living outside in a crate, we knew we had to help. The 7 came in extremely emaciated, less than half of what they should weigh. They were so covered with urine and feces, the smell filled our entire lobby. They even had sores from living in their own waste. These puppies were all very tired and weak, especially little Friday, who went to our vet for treatment. Thankfully, he is parvo negative. But he is not nearly out of the woods yet, as you can see in this video. He is extremely dehydrated, anemic, and filled with parasites. We are doing our best to fight for little Friday and his brothers and sisters, but we cannot do it with you. We do not often post such a heartbreaking side of rescue, but these babies are only one of many medical cases we have had lately. Our medical funds are quickly depleted by these extreme cases. This is where wee need your help. We cannot save lives like these without our generous supporters. Please consider making a tax deductible donation directly through this post or by one of the methods below: Our website: https://www.carams.org/donate Mail to: CARA P. O. Box 231 Clinton, MS 39060
This is NADIA Don't let that grey muzzle fool you! This girl is full of spunk! Nadia is almost 7 years old and due to no fault of her own she has basically been in the shelter for most of her life. Nadia is an absolute love bug who loves everyone, especially children. However, she can be protective of her humans and is sometimes picky about other dogs. An experienced dog parent and a fenced yard is required for Nadia to live her best life! Apply to visit Nadia at carams.org. Once your application is a approved you will be contacted for a meet & greet with Nadia to determine if she will fit into your family forever! #untileverycageisempty
