The Grateful Dog Haven

Hello everyone. We could still use a little help with Sadie💜 to cover her expenses. We raised $75 last week. And received a bag of food for her. Thank you!! We had about $190 in expenses for her this month, and next month we will be looking at about $200 -$250 for routine vet care and short term boarding. Every little bit helps! Will post invoices in comments. We also have Zelle, Venmo, PayPal

Our little wild one 💜 Sadie .
Seeking rescue or adopter💜

11/04/2024

GDH updates🐾 We want to thank everyone once again for all YOU have done over the last 4 and a half years to support our rescue and our dogs. We helped a lot of dogs together - we couldn’t have done any of it without our amazing community behind us. Our rescue operation is coming to an end. We will continue to share Athena’s fundraiser in order to provide support to Athena and her dad, Joe. This is a GoFund me created by our President. This will be our means of fundraising for Athena so we can keep the funds dedicated to her, and continue to raise funds as needed after the closure of our rescue. In addition, we are still caring for Sadie as we have not been able to place her with an adopter or alternate rescue. She has had some adoption interest, but people tend to lose interest in Sadie when they hear she is a little destructive and we are recommending a crate when unsupervised. More on that later.

All this being said, we are collecting donations today for Sadie’s continued care including routine vet care (she is due for annual shots, parasite screening, etc. next month), preventatives, food, boarding fees as she needs short term boarding due to foster going away, her eye drops through the animal eye specialist, and that’s about it for now. Please help us raise about $300 for Sadie! Thank you ❤️🐾 ps - if anyone would like to donate adult dog food for Sadie, we have a chewy wish list (link below). Thank you so much everyone

Just a thoughts for the night. As a person who has fostered many dogs. Please refrain from passing judgment on people who do not keep/adopt their long-term foster dogs. Adopting a dog is not the same as fostering. Fostering is not meant to be a forever commitment. It is a meant to be a temporary arrangement and a bridge to a forever home - in many cases it is a life-saving gift and in some cases the bridge is longer than others …In some cases and for some people, yes, adoption might be possible. For others, there may be circumstances in the home or in the foster family’s life that prohibit them from adopting their foster dog. It could be that they have many pets already, maybe their existing pets are not fully accepting of the foster pet in the home, maybe the family has too many financial obligations….Adopting a pet can be a huge financial commitment - vet med these days is expensive!! But it’s not only veterinary care - there are many expenses associated with pet adoption. Pet sitters when you go on vacation, food, treats. Etc. When you adopt a dog you must be prepared financially. When you foster a dog you have all the support, resources, and benefits of a rescue organization behind you. Big difference! Also keep in mind - in many cases people who end up adopting their foster dogs are subsequently unable to foster more dogs…thus there is one less foster home out there for the infinite number of animals in need of foster care…

There are many foster parents out there who love their foster dogs but cannot keep them forever. Be kind to them. They provided a home for an animal in their time of need. They don’t need you to reframe this effort as a failure to adopt. Thank you ❤️ picture of our beautiful girl Hopie

Tyler update 🧡 This weekend we sent Tyler on his way to his new “home”, and to the next phase of his journey to finding a forever home. 🎉😭He is now under the care of Drool SchoolDrool School Rescue, his previous trainers who worked with him for quite a while last year (and who have provided boarding/training services for us for a few dogs over the years)…they have graciously agreed to assume responsibility for him, and he will remain with them until his permanent home is found!! This is a wonderful solution for Tyler as we shut down our rescue….unfortunately we had not been successful finding him an adopter. Now he is in a safe place with people who already know and love him. And we can all take a deep breath . Thank you!!!

Tyler is a GREAT dog. He is a loving and playful boy with a fantastic personality. He really would be a wonderful addition to the right family. I am sad that we never found that home for him, but I am so grateful he is safe and believe his home is still out there!!! Thank you to EVERYONE who has supported Tyler over the last two years he has been with us. Special thanks to JM who has sponsored his boarding fees the last few months!!! Huge thank you to Eileen for transporting🧡🐾

I can say with confidence that donating to KOL rescue is a wise and sound decision. Your donation will be put to good use. They back their fosters and take care of their dogs 👍🏼 Excellent/responsible organization. Sadly, the same cannot be said for all rescues. So please support the good ones who are doing it right. 🧡

Everyone remember Lambo? He is one of the sweet boys we offered to help a local rescue with who was shutting down. 💙 Today was his annual vet appointment at our vet to keep him all up to date! He did great but not loving the nail trim. He is beautifully muzzle trained which always makes the vet appointments go much smoother. We are so happy we were able to help this local rescue but the reality is we haven’t got one single inquiry on this handsome boy. 😩 If you can please donate a few dollars to help offset the cost of his Vet bill and more importantly help us share Lambo to find his furever home!! 🏡

Please read Athena & Joe’s story, and help us raise some funds for her ongoing medical care! As we wind down our operation, Athena is one of our dogs that is blessed with a forever “foster”. We just need to help them out a little to ensure they have the resources they need. Thank you so much ❤️Link below:

🆘 TYLER 🆘 ADOPT , RESCUE (Donor offering 2K to reputable rescue)

HELP . SHARE.

I am aware rescues and shelters are overwhelmed. Ours is closed because we have no money, no fosters, no adopters . Issues with insurance NO facility . My mental health is 💩 . I have many dogs including multiple fosters and two cats at my house. A couple of my own dogs don’t even get along and some of the dogs are not cat friendly so . So I rotate them all . Tyler is a good boy. He is a loving sweetheart and my heart breaks for him. He deserves to have a home or a rescue with some kind of resources .

He is 4-5 y.o. About 80 lbs . Neutered and UTD. He is friendly with some dogs. But he is fine on his own. He has fun if you just take him out and throw a ball or let him play in the hose or hunt for lizards 🦎. No cats /no kids preferred. He lost his foster home last summer and we have done our best to keep him in boarding but our time is running out

I realize everyone is overwhelmed right now with the hurricane and everything that came with it. Our love and prayers go out to everyone across Florida because this is such a difficult time for so many. This is important announcement : we are officially CLOSING in less than a month. We need to get Tyler & Sadie adopted or moved to another rescue. ASAP. We cannot continue to support them especially Tyler who has been in boarding for over a year - this is extremely urgent ‼️ We are losing our insurance, we are dissolving our corporation…we have a donor willing to make a significant monetary donation if a reputable rescue takes Tyler. PLEASE HELP we have no options this boy needs the community please help us find a rescue to step up for this boy

ADOPTER OR RESCUE NEEDED
My name is TYLER 🧡 I am sweet and cuddly . I am playful and silly! I love my yard where I have privacy and space to run and play! I get overwhelmed in public places with lots of people, dogs, kids, etc.. I am friendly with other dogs who are familiar to me and part of my pack. I prefer females, but am fine with smaller male dogs. I like a dogs with a chill/passive or neutral vibe. I love my kong ball, the garden hose, car rides, couch naps 💤 it’s the simple things for me. ☺️ I have been professionally trained and e-collar trained and I am happy to work on my training with you! I am so eager to please (and I LOVE yummy treats 😋). My trainers are in Fort Myers and would love to help me make a transition into my forever home! I am crate trained! I am house broken! Yesterday I went to the vet and got all my vaccines updated. I am HW negative and up to date on prevention. I do have a small lump on my back which should be checked out if it gets any bigger. My rescue mom will cover a vet visit to get that tested.
