Hey All,
Wanted to share the very special pups arriving January and February. The first 4 are arriving January 23rd and the last 2 February 20th. Most of these babies have heartbreaking stories and are favorites of some staff and volunteers. 1/2 were on the euthanasia list for space. All are special sweet babies that deserve to find their happily ever after. 💞 Even if pending adoptions or fosters, fosters to adopt please reach out. Not only does stuff fall through but there are over 1,000 more like them in this shelter than need hero's. We are trying to slow down for a bit tagging unless we are sure they will have homes to welcome them. The more willing homes we have the more we can save. With these babies we have 90 dogs we saved this year from FW shelter. Majority were being euthanized for space. (More photos/videos in comments under their pics)

We could not let this precious sweet baby lose her life. She was found on the streets with Angel Jr 9 months after they were adopted out of the shelter as 3 mo old puppies. Both were malnourished, dehydrated and covered in urine and f***s. This little girl also had a soft tissue mass on her spine which has since ruptured but healing well. So many great folks were advocating for this sweet, deserving baby and she was a favorite for all that met her. Some amazing TX fosters stepped up to help get her to safety so she can jump aboard transport to find her forever family here in New England. We will be providing anything needed to keep an eye on it or any needed vetting. She is only a year old and weighs only currently around 25 lbs. She is one of the sweeeeeetest girls ever. SEE HER VIDEOS IN COMMENTS 🤗

There are 4 dogs on this list we would try to save and tag for rescue. ROSEY, COCO, FRANKIE AND RALPHIE. PLEASE take a look at the info and videos and pics under their pics and in comments.They would come the end of January. We CANNOT tag unless we have definite dedicated spots for them when they would arrive the end of January. There time is up and in order to be safe i would NEED to msg the shelter TODAY. If anyone would be a foster, foster to adopt or adopter YOU would save a life. PLEASE REACH OUT NOW IF you want to help one of these deserving pups.

Wow what a day. 8 babies arrived in New England today. 8 more lives saved. These babies had quite the journey to get here. Poor babies had to get transferred off the bus into a u haul in the midst of their trip due to the bus breaking down. Arrival was on the coldest day yet. As I drift to sleep tonight my heart is grateful. Grateful to all the hero's that came through for them. All that helped to get them here, the shelter, the TX fosters, the adopters and fosters that stepped up in New England that opened their hearts and homes to welcome them. The amazing Paws Up Rescue Transport as well. Without every one of you this would not have been possible. Tonight we are safe and sound. 💞

45 great pups cashed in their Golden tickets today and jumped aboard the purple and green bus. These babies left TX in the rear view looking ahead to arrive in New England. Of this group of 45, 15 were last call pups and of the 45, 8 are coming to us of which 6 were last call for space. Our pups are below. We are so grateful to say that folks really stepped up to be hero's for these deserving babies. Every dog has a home to welcome them, fosters are vital and so many really came through for us. We have several available for adoption. If interested in meeting any of our available pups once they get into their foster homes please reach out. See you soon babies!
