It is heartbreaking 💔 to hear the news of the devastating fire in Medford that killed Chris Arsenault and 100 or more of his cats at his Happy Cat Sanctuary.

Chris ran back inside repeatedly to save as many cats as he could until the one time he never came back out. He was a hero.

Updates are coming through at Jaeger's Run Animal Rescue Inc. They are heading up recovery efforts of surviving cats. That post has more updated information and an interview about the current situation.

Stay tuned if you may offer help.

It is so tragic to lose such a rescue warrior who poured his heart and soul into what he did, all the way to this tragic end. All trying to save more cats and kittens. I’m sure the greeting at the bridge was incredible. 🐾

WAZ is looking for a volunteer transport of 4 dogs to Steel Hands Brewing on Thursday this week, to kick off the Tartan Day South celebration.

Our Celtic Ambassadors will need transport to and from the event. They are currently located in Redbank so to Cayce and back again is what we ask of you.

WAZ’s part in the event lasts from 6pm-8pm so we’ll need transport to arrive in Redbank no later than 4:30 to accommodate the ambassadors’ comfort.

It’s going to be a fun event and an amazing opportunity to get our dogs seen and hopefully adopted!!!🐶❤️💚🍀

Meet David Thornton III. He is a Wonka reject in Florida, making ends meet by viciously baiting and fighting defenseless dogs and puppies. Let us not forget all the other animals used and killed to prep them such as, cats, puppies, kittens, rabbits, squirrels, opossums and more. The torture doesn’t discriminate. Neither do we.

All animal abusers are abysmal, odious, POS, DBag, hell-bound, wretched, scuzzy, syphilitic, meshuga boors and deserve to be eliminated any means necessary. The states and systems that allow it to continue are no better than the trash that commits these heinous, atrocious and barbaric acts.

This vicious “hobby” pouring money in and souls out, will not stop unless there is something greater to lose. If these PK 🫏 🐕s were given a reason to fear getting caught, it might slow some of it down. The system, laws, courts and judges are corrupt and faithless.

This should be a crime that the public handles. Yeah I said it.

Wizard of WAZ: 💫
The importance of microchipping your pet. We have heard it all, “my dog never leaves the yard”, or the always common, “she stays right by my side and won’t go anywhere”.

Dogs and cats can slip out of a house by quickly. Sometimes it’s not even on purpose.

📍So many pets are lost or stolen each year after a home break-in.

📍Car accidents leave dogs stranded, lost and scared, often never recovered.

📍Maintenance people are neglectful.

📍That storm that knocked your fence down.

📍Someone other than you was in the house.

📍Fireworks are scary enough to make any animal flee.

📍The dog slipped its collar at the vet.

📍You moved or traveled and the pet doesn’t know how to get back home.

📍The border didn’t realize there was a hole under the fence.

📍The kids weren’t paying attention.

Anything can happen. When your pet is lost, or stolen, your chance of getting your pet back is increased by more than 60% when they have an updated/current microchip.

Shelters may receive a dog or cat and if it is not microchipped, it’s now a stray. So, you know which shelter the dog went to when found? Some people see a lost animal and pick it up, taking it with them to other areas, towns and even other states. Who is trying to locate you from there?

We get requests to scan animals almost daily. Vets and shelters scan all day. Without the microchip, no one knows who they belong to, especially without a collar and tag.

Did you know that dogs that are stolen often get loose from their new homes and can be found by someone else, scanned and returned when they realize it’s yours? That happens all the time.

We see pets in shelters every day that are clearly a well cared for family member, only to be euthanized or placed in rescue if they are lucky, because families were never located.

Many ordinances require chips now to prevent shelter overpopulation. We make microchipping a prioroty and mAKC Reunitence affordable.

We trust AKC Reunite. We only charge $15 for chips and that includes FREE Lifetime Registration. You get that nowhere else!

Call and make sure your pet is chipped and the registration is current. Almost any animal can be chipped!

We see dogs, cats, goats, tortoises, bunnies, birds, ferrets, horses, and so much more. People want their pets back!

Reach out to your vet, local shelter or rescue, and get your pets microchipped, for their safety and your peace of mind.

We had a great time at the Orangeburg SPCA Bark In The Park event today! What an awesome crowd and so many adorable babies getting their microchips.

I was only able to snag a few photos. The best news was I didn’t get bit or stabbed today. 😆 That’s a first!

🔥 They never change! 🔥

Former NFL player LeShon Eugene Johnson was federally charged with running a dog fighting and trafficking operation after nearly 200 dogs were seized.

The U.S. Department of Justice said Johnson was indicted by a grand jury in the Eastern District of Oklahoma for violations of dog fighting prohibitions of the federal Animal Welfare Act.

Johnson is charged with possessing 190 pit-bull type dogs for use in animal fighting and for selling, transporting and delivering a dog for use in animal fighting.

The DOJ said federal authorities seized 190 dogs from Johnson in October 2024, believed to be the most dogs ever seized from a single person in a federal dog fighting case. He's accused of running a dog fighting operation called "Mal Kant Kennels" in Broken Arrow and Haskell.

According to the DOJ, Johnson would selectively breed dogs that had won fights to produce offspring for use in more dog fights. He's accused of selling dogs to other dog fighters across the country and growing the dog fighting industry for profit.

Court documents show Johnson previously pleaded guilty to state animal fighting charges in 2004.

"Dog fighting is a cruel, blood-thirsty venture, not a legitimate business or sporting activity," said U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Wilson for the Eastern District of Oklahoma. "I applaud the investigative work of the FBI and the Justice Department's Environment and Natural Resources Division in detecting and dismantling breeding operations which only serve to propagate this deplorable conduct."

According to court documents, Johnson pleaded not guilty to all charges. He was released and his trial is set for May.

n the mid-1990s, Johnson was known as a professional football player who played for the Green Bay Packers, the Arizona Cardinals and the New York Giants before retiring from the sport.

Star 🌟 is waiting on a foster! She is also available for adoption. Since she arrived at Club Zeus, she has come out of her shell and enjoys playing with the other dogs. She loves Ms. Mary, and is gentle with her.

Star is a Heller mix and has been with WAZ for almost a year. She deserves her own place to crash. She arrived off the e-list with the only baby that survived after being born in the shelter. Even with the best foster care ever, baby boy passed unexpectedly at three weeks old from what doctors think was aspiration.

Star had emotion strides and has become such a big boom girl ready to love and play! Her and Rose love duking it out!

Star is spayed, microchipped, fully vetted and at optimal fatness. 😁

She loves her walks and will stay with you from trail to trail. When she gets back, she wants a couch! She is affectionate and does well with people ✅ dogs ✅ cats ✅ and older children ✅. We suggest older because she forgets her size sometimes and a baby or toddler may get hurt unintentionally.

Please consider fostering or foster to adopt Star 🌟! She is worthy and so beautiful. 🤩

Please submit an application from our website for consideration. She is in Lexington, SC, and transport can be made available.

🚨 ATTENTION PET OWNERS!

The pet microchip company “SaveThisLife” has abruptly closed, meaning pets registered with them are now unregistered and their owners’ contact information is no longer accessible through their microchip database.

It’s critical for pets previously registered with SaveThisLife to be re-registered as soon as possible. Don’t panic! We are here to help.
�💎 What to Do:

1. Find your microchip number! Contact the vet clinic that implanted the microchip or reach out to us to scan your pet.

2. 🚫 Don’t get a new chip. This could cause confusion when a scanner picks up on more than one chip. The same chip can be registered elsewhere.

3. Re-register your pet’s microchip with another pet microchip company. We exclusively use and recommend AKC Reunite. It is the most trustworthy registry and company in America. You can change the chip info for only $5, and you never have to pay any additional fees or registrations for LIFE!

We can assist you with the process. Contact us for assistance.

Don’t know what company your pet’s microchip is registered to? SaveThisLife microchip numbers begin with either 991 or 900164. We can also locate for you.

You can look up your pet’s chip number via the “Microchip Registry Lookup Tool” to determine with which company your pet’s chip is registered. To access the tool, visit our link in bio and scroll until you see “AAHA Microchip Lookup Tool .”

*This registry lookup tool does not disclose pet owner information or allow pet owners to update their pets’ microchips. It is a lookup tool to help identify the registry where a pet’s microchip is registered.

When you dump your dog, what do you think happens? They get a new job, a new mate and start over? Maybe find a cheap apartment to rent and save up for groceries.

You are the odious of society. Sit in a quiet place for a while. Clear your mind. Feel your security. Now imagine someone takes you shopping and puts you out in a strange place and leaves you and never comes back.

If that doesn’t change your mind, you need dumped.
