❤️ Rocko Update ❤️
Looks like he finally found his forever home with one of the best dog mommies out there! We always knew he was a super fun, special little guy. We just needed someone else to see it, too :) Thank you, Robyn Bruchey, for seeing him.
Neptune made it to Maryland ❤️❤️❤️
😭 Happy Tears Time 😭
Our boy, Rocko, made it to his new foster mom today. Y'all, this lady is wonderful. She basically runs a little dog farm with 17 babies now, including our babies Lolly and Pop (formerly Hansel and Gretel) who spent 8 months at the shelter.
Well, Rocko broke her heart just the same as they did. He waited 7 months for his chance to come. He isn't the cute, little fluffy type, nor is he the big, beautiful majestic type. He's cross-eyed and a little chunky now. Just a plain brown like so many others. But Robyn always sees past those things. She sees the soul of these dogs, and she has that kind of heart that demands she saves them. Even when it breaks the bank 🤣 Like many of us.
I want to thank her for welcoming our chunky, frog-eyed boy into her pack! I think he recognized his old friend, Hansel! It may not be his forever (who knows 🤷♀️), but it's a safe, warm, happy home, where he will be loved in the meantime.
Thank you, Robyn Bruchey! ❤️
We pulled these cuties out of a hoarded apartment today after being abandoned for 3 weeks. Elaina Vaughn with Mississippi Coalition for Animal Protection stepped up immediately to take momma and baby for us. Momma Pumpkin went so long without nutrients, she stopped producing milk. Baby Spice was nearly starved to death, and needed a bottle feeder. Please support them! Teamwork makes the dream work!
We created some custom T-Shirts to help raise money for Lucky's Little Rescue Get yours in the next three weeks, and it will be delivered after the fundraiser ends!
Even though we are leaving the city shelter, our rescue efforts in George County will continue. As a county with very little in the way of resources and shelter for the hundreds of abandoned and homeless pets we hear about every month, we know we need all the rescue and support we can get. So we are not leaving! Get involved in helping the cause by ordering a T-Shirt with our custom design or sign up to foster today!
Rescues cover all expenses involved in fostering, including vetting and food. All you have to do is offer up your home temporarily to an animal that may die without a foster home and get them to their appointments. The rescue pays to fix and vaccinate the animal, and we work together to help find them their forever home! Please reach out if you'd be interested in being a foster parent to a homeless pet!
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090209122290 Visit our Facebook to see our work in action! Every bit of the profits from the T-Shirt sales will go to benefiting local animals in need like the ones you'll see on our page! And the many more still needing our help. Even though we are leaving...
🍫 Meet Hershey! 🍫
This sweet little cutie is a 3-4 month old chocolate lab, potentially full blooded. It's very possible she's mixed, but we can't see anything else in her at this time.
She has big, beautiful, bright eyes that capture your attention when you watch her play! She's very friendly, and she gets along well with other animals. Her best buddy, Magoo, loves to play with her all the time. Hershey is still a puppy and will likely do all the puppy things like chewing and having accidents until she learns. But she's still a teachable baby that just needs time to learn a new routine in a new home!
Hershey is fixed and vaccinated. She is too young to be heartworm tested. Adoption fee is 100$
Update: ADOPTED! Thank you Ally Collins for choosing our sweet boy 😊
♥️ Meet Mr. Magoo ♥️
This boy is a 5-6 month old beagle mix. He's very much so on the smaller size and shouldn't get above 20-25 lbs or so.
He has been with a foster for several weeks now after being dumped with his little buddy, Hershey. Mr. Magoo is a little shy at first, but he comes around quickly! He loves to play, and he's been fine with all other animals (cats and dogs that we've seen). As much as his foster loves him, it's time for him to find a new home!
Mr. Magoo is fixed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. His adoption fee is 80$
👻 It's always spooky season for these two! 👻
Ansel looks like a former pet cemetery resident, and Mrs. Wiggles is always doing the skeleton wiggle dance.
Ansel and Mrs. Wiggles are adoption ready! Other than a small spot still healing on Ansel's back, he's all better!
Mrs. Wiggles needs a special home. She has cerebral hypoplasia, also known as Wobbly Cat Syndrome. This means she wobbles a lot when she walks, runs, or otherwise moves. She is still able to live a long, healthy life, and she's not in any pain! Despite the wobbles, she's still a fun, playful., loving cat! She likes other cats and has no fear of dogs. She's litter box trained as well! Mostly, she needs a home where she can have a mostly flat service and only friendly pet companions.
Ansel is a little shy at first, but he comes around quickly! He loves attention, and loves to be loved on. He's a little strange looking because he's missing part of his ear, and his one pupil doesn't quite work the same as the other. But I think he's fabulous! He likes other cats, and I imagine he'll be a bit nervous about dogs at first, due to being mauled by one. So he would need time, in general, to decompress in a new home. A patient and loving family would be best for him.
Both kitties are fixed, vaccinated, and triple tested! Their adoption fees are 100$

‼️ This girl needs a home or foster ASAP ‼️
Dorothy is one of our last doggies needing a home! Maybe the last if all goes well for the other two 🙏
She is a bulldog/curr mix, 1 year old, and around 40 lbs. She's not a very tall dog, but she's a little chunky at the moment. She was abandoned by a former owner, who left her tied to a tree when he moved to Florida. She had never been allowed to be an inside dog with a family.
In an effort to change that, we brought her home for a little while. We learned that she's actually a great dog! She stays in her kennel at night and when we leave without making a fuss, and she doesn't use the bathroom in her kennel. She is working on potty training. She does use the bathroom outside, but she drinks A LOT and doesn't know how to tell me when she needs to go yet. Letting her out more frequently or limiting her water intake would solve this problem.
Oh, and she likes to cuddle ☺️ a lot. She also loves other dogs and enjoys playing with them. She's extremely tolerant of other animals as well because she didn't retaliate or even hardly react when my cat hisses and slaps her. Dorothy seems to really like men, too, and shows no fear of anyone she meets.
Overall, she's a pretty fantastic little dog. She's adjusted to being inside very well, and as much as I wish she could stay with us, she can't. 4 dogs (one of which does not like the other dogs) is going to be too much after surgery. So this baby needs a home or foster ASAP!
📢 Announcement 📢
We will be closed tomorrow and Saturday!
We only have a few dogs left to find homes or rescues for, and of course, meetings can be scheduled if someone is interested in adopting! However, we will not be open to the public again until Monday! We are focusing mostly on getting things moved out and finding placement for our remaining pups.
Dorothy, Rocko, and Butch are our three remaining babies that needs homes or rescue pulls! We are happy to answer any questions about them and schedule meet and greets!
🙏 Rocko needs a hero! 🙏
We need a rescue pull or home for this boy asap!
This boy is so sweet and goofy and playful! He really is a good boy who just needs someone with a little patience. He's never had a real home, and he's never been allowed to live inside. It'll be a new experience for him, but I think he'd potty train quick! He hates using the bathroom in his kennel at the shelter already.
Rocko is extremely dog friendly, and he's never met a stranger. He's a little on the hyper side (not too bad but still a little puppy), so he'd do better with older kids. Rocko also LOVES his toys more than anything else! Don't let him have stuffies unsupervised or they will quickly become un-stuffed 🤦♀️ He also loves rubber bones and benebones, which aren't as messy!
He's heartworm negative, up to date on prevention, fixed, and vaccinated!
Rocko is sponsored by Rachel Freeny - State Farm Insurance Agent and ready to go home with the right family willing to give him a chance!
🎊 One down, three to go!🎊
We've managed to secure transport for Neptune to 3 Acres Rescue in Maryland! Congratulations, little man!
A big thank you to 3 Acres for taking on Neptune and helping get him transported. It is so appreciated.
Only 3 more dogs to find safe places to land! We are trying everything, reaching out to every rescue and shelter we can. Please keep praying for our babies to find security soon 🙏
🐸 Princess Tiana Update 🐸
We definitely needed a little happy amidst all this stress over our last few dogs.
Tiana pulled from Jackson County Animal Shelter in June. We knew she was heavy positive, and nearing end stage of heartworms.
Three days after her arrival at our shelter, she began violently and constantly coughing up blood. She was immediately taken to the amazing Dr. Dean with Southern Veterinary Clinic. He housed her there since then to reduce her excitement and heart rate levels, keep her medicated, and treat her heartworms. All out of the kindness of his heart and his love for animals.
Somehow, despite going into end stages, Tiana recovered. She received her fast kill treatment, and she found an amazing mom.
Thank you to Tiana's mom, Hannah, for waiting so patiently to adopt her after her treatment! And for giving a home to a sweet girl who truly needed it. Adopting changes lives, and this girl's life was saved and forever changed thanks to everyone who was willing to give her a chance. ❤️
⚠️ Don't overlook this boy! ⚠️
Rock is one of 4 dogs needing a place to go immediately! Our chapter with the shelter is closing, which means this boy is running out of time to find a home.
Like the other remaining pups, Rocko has been constantly overlooked. I can only guess it's because he's a bully mix, because he's a plain brown dog, or because he's a little too big. Maybe it's his eyes that look in two different directions that we think is so cute. But, whatever the reason, he deserves better. Rocko has a lot of love to give, and he's been waiting his WHOLE life to be loved in return.
Rocko's adoption fee is covered by his amazing sponsor, Rachel Freeny - State Farm Insurance Agent, for the right home. Also thanks to her, a donation can be made to any rescue willing to pull him as well.
Please don't let Rocko become one of the many unwanted and forgotten shelter dogs all across the country that never get the chance to know what having a family is like. 🙏
😭 Why is this handsome fella still here?! 😭
Butch is one of the bestest boys that has ever graced these hallowed halls. He is by and far one of the most emotionally intelligent dogs I've seen, knowing exactly how to approach every dog he meets. If a dog is nervous, he will roll over and offer up his belly, approach slowly, and try to show them how to play. Young children get the same careful treatment!
If you've got a dog that has too much energy, don't worry! Butch will wear them out for you! He will play as much as they want and settle down when they're ready. He follows their lead at all times, and he'll follow your lead, too! Butch is incredibly intelligent and trains very easily.
I will never understand why this amazing boy keeps getting overlooked! He's as close to the perfect dog as I've ever seen ❤️
His adoption fee is 80$ but can be reduced with a verified vet reference. He's fixed, vaccinated, and ready to love you and your dogs forever!
🐾 Two Pups Needing Rescue or Adopters!🐾
These two cuties appear to be redbone hound mixes, according to their finder, and about 10-12 weeks old. They showed up recently, but the finder is unable to keep and would love to see them returned to their owner or taken into a good home where they'll be loved!
Please reach out to Tory McQueen if you're interested in one of these cuties! Or if you might know where they came from!
⚡️ Meet Bolt! ⚡️
He's a big, beautiful, weird little mix of a Great Pyrenees and Pocket Bully. Bolt is 6 months old, heartworm negative, and has started his vaccines. He is scheduled to be neutered next Thursday and will be ready for a home after that.
So far, Bolt has proven to be a well-mannered, sweet boy. But he is very shy around strangers and very shy around other dogs right now. For that reason, we will only be consider adoptions where he can be a single dog, or a home with older dogs that would give him his space. He doesn't seem aggressive towards dogs, just defensive. When other dogs are across the room, playing by themselves, he just lays and watches. But he gets extremely anxious and reactive when another dog gets in his face.
We will be working on getting him used to strangers and other dogs while he's with us! As well as working on kennel training. So far, we've learned he's good on a leash, sits for treats, and just likes to lay by his person's feet most of the time! He doesn't seem extremely playful or destructive, but things may change as he becomes more comfortable and confident.
Bolt's adoption fee will be 80$. He'll be neutered, HW tested, and have his rabies and first shots. He'll need a booster shot two weeks after his neuter that we are happy to provide!
‼️ URGENT ‼️
Currently, we have 4 dogs and 2 cats needing homes, fosters, or rescues.
We will be taking in three more young dogs on Thursday, too. These animals HAVE to be out of the shelter by September 19th. There is NO alternative option, and we are desperately trying to avoid euthanasia. My surgery is scheduled that day, and our contract ends after September. We have NO fosters available currently to take them.
We have messaged several shelters in our state and several rescues between MS, LA, and AL, and we've been unable to secure a safe place for them to go.
Please tag any rescues you think may be able to help. Or that we could reach out to. I'm starting to panic a bit 😭
We are willing to donate shelter supplies, food, and any spare resources we have to any rescue or shelter willing to take in our babies. We are willing to reduce adoption fees as well with approved vet references.
The 4 we have now are fantastic dogs. All fixed and vaccinated. Only one (Dorothy) is light heartworm positive. Dog and people friendly. Great dogs that are getting overlooked, and have been overlooked for months and months, because they're plain brown and black pups.
Please help us find homes or rescues for these pups! It's not their fault that nobody wants them, and that we have to leave. 🙏
🌼 Announcement 🌼
This wonky ankle of mine is angry and demands rest. So we will be closed tomorrow!
We will reopen for regular hours on Thursday: 9am to 4pm.
P.S. Shelly still needs a home ❤️ Want a laid back older dog that just wants to cuddle and be loved? She's your girl!
❤️ Look at this fabulous girl! ❤️
If you're interested in being this fabulous, check out Faith's sponsor Boutique 452 here in Lucedale, MS!
We are so grateful to them for sponsoring Faith's ongoing care in her foster home. This sweet girl is totally ready for adoption after receiving heartworm treatment. Her sponsorship is used to keep up with her prevention, so we can make sure she stays heartworm clear while she searches for her forever home!
Boutique 452 is located at 5169 Main Street 📢
Dorothy falling asleep while chewing her toy...
Such a silly girl! She and Rocko are both obsessed with their toys ❤️
If you love silly, wrinkly-faced bully mixes with big ole underbites, this is your girl!
Good morning!
We will be open from 10am to 1pm today!
P.S. Shelly is still up for adoption through her amazing foster Lori Ward Howell ❤️ she's a beautiful, laid back kind of girl.
We have some amazing cuties that really need a home asap. Please check them out on our page or website. The love of a shelter dog is unconditional, and we could all use a little bit of that in our lives!
⭐️My name is Butch!⭐️
I was tossed out of a truck with my two brothers awhile back. We were only three months old then, which feels like a lifetime ago! The shelter took us in and provided for us, taught us how to be good boys. My brothers both got families of their own not too long ago, and I keep hoping I'll get one soon.
I hope whatever family wants me has another dog, too! I love other dogs. But I love to get attention and be with my people as well. I would be a good farm dog, or a good family dog, since I'm just happy to be loved and cared for anywhere! I'm not picky at all. I'd be happy anywhere that I'm wanted, and where people smile when they see me. That's my ultimate dream!
If you need a fun-loving companion for your furry family member, then I am definitely your guy! I don't let anyone be lonely when I'm around!
🪨 My name is Rocko!🪨
I wasn't wanted when I was born, so I was given away to someone else. And unfortunately, they didn't want me either. So I was given to the shelter that my sisters were given away to awhile back. They were both adopted, but I never was. Nobody really looks at me, and I don't know why.
I know I'm a bit energetic, and I like to play maybe a little too much. But I'm a super friendly buddy, and I love everyone I meet. With the right owner, I could learn to be a really good boy, I think! Even better than I already am. I really love toys, so I hope that I will meet someone who has toys. But otherwise, I'm not picky. I just want to know what it feels like to be loved by a family! More than anything else.
If you have another high energy family member, I'd be perfect for them! We could play and play until we pass out!
🪐My name is Neptune!🪐
I was abandoned at 5 weeks old with my brother Pluto. We were rescued by an awesome foster, who kept us safe until we were vaccinated and safe to go to the shelter. Pluto got adopted, which is great! But I'm still waiting for my turn.
I love everyone I meet, especially the little ones! Dogs are my best friends, no matter who they are. I'm really smart, too, and learn fast. The trainer says I do a really good job! I would be happy with any family that is willing to love me for better or worse. That's what I'm really missing. I know they love me here, but they also have to leave at night and go home to their own families. It's not the same. I want to be a part of a family, too.
If you're looking for a good boy to be a part of your family, please pick me!
🌸 My name is Dorothy!🌸
I was part of an unwanted litter, along with my sister, Sophia, and brother, Rocko, that was turned over to the shelter. I learned a lot while I was here at first! I was young, and I learned that I really like other dogs and people. Then, in December, I was adopted right after my sister was! I thought that was my happy ending!
Unfortunately, my new dad didn't really understand what it meant to have a dog. He didn't treat me like his new best buddy, but more like a lawn ornament. And eventually, he left me, still alone in the yard. So seven months later, I ended up in the shelter again. All I really want is a best friend, or a family to love me. I'm still young, and I still really like to play! I'd be a great companion for someone else that really likes to play, too!
Please consider giving me a home! I'm not perfect, and I need some training still. But no one will love you as much as I do!

Announcement: We have decided that we will not be renewing our contract with the city next year. We will no longer operate the city shelter after September 31st. Our priority for the time being will be to get our animals into good foster homes. I have loved this job, and I have loved these animals with all my heart. But unfortunately, it's impossible to continue this way. We have always fought hard to try and do things the right way that would benefit the animals and everyone involved in the best way possible. Somehow that often put us at odds with those we were trying to help. We will continue to rescue, and continue to advocate for the government and law being used thoroughly and properly to help animals in our state. It is definitely a statewide problem. I hope that one day, we can all fight together for the same thing ❤️ It's not an end, it's a fresh start! To clarify, we are not shutting down at all. We just are leaving the shelter, so we will return to foster-based rescue :) and we will be looking for new fosters going forward!
‼️Kitty Update‼️ Our little buddy is doing fabulous so far. Eating, drinking, walking, and purring away like nothing ever happened. I did decide to go with the name Ansel, because he definitely has a guardian watching over him, but I have written down all the other name suggestions so I can steal them for all the babies that come in the future 😁 Ansel is a very sweet boy, who loves attention. I dropped him off at Magnolia Animal Clinic-Dr. Dean Stringfellow to have his wounds shaved and cleaned up, vaccines, triple test, and they're going to neuter him while he's sedated. So he's getting the works! He'll be a whole new cat on Monday! Stay tuned for the after photos!
🙏 We're hanging in there! 🙏 Our kitty from yesterday is eating and doing well so far. He's active and alert, and he is much more hydrated today. The medicine has made him a good bit more comfortable so far! If he continues to hang in there, we'll take everyone's names and put them to a vote! He doesn't like the kennel, but it's keeping him confined until his wounds heal. We would be so grateful for any help with his ongoing care! ❤️ Donations can be made to our vet Magnolia Animal Clinic-Dr. Dean Stringfellow under our name or to our digital payment methods. www.paypal.me/luckyslittlerescue https://venmo.com/u/Lynne-Broussard-4 $LuckysLittleRescue
⚠️ Our kitties need you! ⚠️ I want to introduce Mrs. Wiggles, seen in the video below. She is a kitten born with cerebral hypoplasia, also known as Wobbly Cat Syndrome. And oh boy is she wobbly! Just watch her go! Due to our debt to our vet (Sorry, Dr. Dean), we could really use some help getting these guys vaccinated and fixed. It's so important to us that the kittens we sent out into the world are protected from diseases and accidental babies. And our little friend who was mauled still needs ongoing care. Donations can be made to our vet Magnolia Animal Clinic-Dr. Dean Stringfellow under our name or to our digital payment methods. www.paypal.me/luckyslittlerescue https://venmo.com/u/Lynne-Broussard-4 $LuckysLittleRescue
💔 Dorothy 💔 Dorothy came back to us today after being adopted 7 months ago. In a rash decision, which I can only guess was made to spite his family he was renting from, her dad moved to Florida and left her chained up to a tree outside. She is extremely stressed, pacing, and wouldn't eat this morning. 7 months is a long time to think that you're home and part of a family, only to be abandoned and returned to what amounts to a prison cell. THIS is why we don't take owner surrenders. Because they struggle so bad in a shelter. Finding them a home to go to instead makes the transition infinitely easier. Not to mention the fact that adoptions are down all over. Her brother, Rocko, has been here for 5 months with no interest. No matter the brief amount of play time, the toys, the treats, or anything else we give them to try and make them happier, this place is not a home. And they are not happy here. It's supposed to be a temporary stop on their way to forever. But they're getting stuck here, and people treat it like a place to dump off their unwanted animals. Please. Before you buy a dog, think about the dogs waiting in their cell for a chance at freedom. Before you leave your dog at a shelter, think about how they'll feel locked up in such a scary place without their family. Some experts say dogs have the mental capacity of a toddler. Imagine how a 3 year old would feel in the same situation. That's how a dog feels. Adopt. Foster. Volunteer. Donate.
❤️ Faith: The Movie ❤️ Our sweet Faith completed her heartworm treatment this week, which means she is ready to start looking for her forever. So in honor of her bright future, we wanted to show her difficult past and the long journey to make it there she is today. Thank you to everyone who helped get her where she is now. It was a massive team effort, but it was so so worth it in the end. Please enjoy the video and share our baby girl! We will be looking for a very special home for our very special Faith.

❤️ Hershey Update ❤️ Hershey has put on so much weight already, thanks to some good healthy weight food! He eats three small meals a day, and he has learned his routine quickly. Of course, he fit right in with the other pups and spends most of his time playing with his new friends. He's OBSESSED with Bullet. He's turning into quite the healthy, happy little guy! We are giving him hip and joint supplements due to the old pelvis injury that never healed right. But he doesn't let it slow him down much!
Thanks for being a top follow and following our rescue page! 🎉 Neal Lindley, Megan Irwin, SheriandBill Blankenship, Makayla Anderson, Jeri Helton Every bit of interaction and sharing helps spread the message for our babies. And it increases their chance to getting adopted as more people see their cute little faces, so thanks for following along with us! 🌼Neal, thank you for taking care of our baby girl Faith, and for helping her make miracles happen constantly. She was so lucky to have you and Shannon come into her life! 🌼Megan, thank you for your hard work in taking care of our babies all by yourself on Sundays. It is so so appreciated, and that one day off is priceless for me. I always know they're in good hands, even though I'm not there! P.S. Sweet Shelly is ready for adoption! She's around 25 lbs, 5 years old, HW negative, and sweet as can be! She's a little iffy with bigger dogs, but absolutely ADORES her best friend, Chester. So I think she just likes little dogs ❤️
❤️ Gretel - Intake: 10/31/23 ❤️ Hello, My name is Gretel. I was pulled out of a ditch with my brother last year when it was starting to get cold. I was so little then that I barely remember life before my kennel. I'm sure I don't want to remember. I know we were both really scared to be taken to a new place with new people since they haven't always been the nicest to us. These new people take care of us and feed us, so we've decided that we like them. What we really want is to find someone that will give us that forever home we hear so much about. I don't really know what it is, but it sounds really nice. Even though I like these people, I don't want to be in my kennel any more. I'm already tired of Hansel's snoring and how he hogs our toys. Having somewhere I can stretch my legs and feel safe forever is all I want. Maybe I can have that in one of these forever homes they always talk about here. I really, really hope so.
🌼 Hansel and Gretel playtime! 🌼 Our two longest residents got some time to play together today! It's a little too hot for the play yard, so we're using the foyer for some fun in the AC with all our pups. Lots of toys and a good bit of space to run around and roughhouse. These two sweet babies are our longest residents. They're both calm, sweet, and absolutely adore other dogs. It takes them a couple days to warm up to people, but once they do, they're your best little buddies. ❤️ They're hound mixes, going on 8-9 months old now! Gretel is around 20-22 lbs. Hansel is around 25lbs.
🤘 Rocko - Intake Date: 2/14/23 🤘 Hi there! My name is Rocko. I'm a bulldog and curr mix, so I've been told. My siblings and I were an accident, and we were given away when we got big enough. My first family wasn't ready for a new puppy like me though. Not everyone was happy I was around, so I was kept outside all the time. I was eventually surrendered to the same shelter where my other two sisters ended up! I wish I had been able to see them again, but they were adopted before I got here. I keep hoping I'll be adopted soon, too. I know I'm a good boy. I love anyone who loves me. More than anything, I just want to be with a family that really wants me and sees how cool I am! That's my dream!
Thanks for being a top engager and supporter of our page! It helps our babies any time someone shares, likes, and spreads the word about them. They're more likely to find a home when there are more eyes on the page. So we appreciate you always being here and following along!! 🎉 ❤️ Angela Rucker, Keslyn Jones, Danielle LaShey Holland-Bonilla, Bonnie Brown , Trunkgypsycompany, SheriandBill Blankenship, Shannon Dalessandri
💘 Hansel - Intake 10/31/23 💘 Hello. My name is Hansel. I was found living in a ditch with my sister, Gretel, and a really nice team of people came together to get us out. I was really scared at first, and sometimes I'm still scared. I don't know if I can trust new people because not everyone was nice to me. But I like the people who are nice. I was glad to be saved, but I don't always want to be locked up here. If someone could just give me a chance, I know I can be a good dog. I may not run up and shower you with kisses immediately, but once I know you're a nice person, I promise to always love you as hard as I can!
🌺Happy Mother's Day🌺 From us at Lucky's, to all of the amazing moms that take care of babies of all kinds, we hope you have a happy Mother's Day. A special shout out to all the fur-moms that have adopted from our rescue! We know we didn't give you perfect babies, but we thank you for loving them anyways!

🎊It's a good night for Lucky's🎊 We want to thank the The City of Lucedale for listening to our concerns and taking them seriously tonight. We got the impression that everyone has the same goal of working together to improve the problem. We just need to come together to find the right solution! The board voted, and we are here for another year! I know that it's not a perfect system right now, but we are trying to make things better. The city has agreed to provide us more resources and assistance so we can really get to where we want to be! I'm very optimistic of the future!! Stay tuned for future announcements and plans! I think we're going to make great strides in the next year :) and we thank everyone for all the support we've received so far. We hope you stick with us!
Shelly looooooves to eat ♥️
❤️🩹 Faith Update ❤️🩹 She is the luckiest girl in the world that's for sure! Faith's foster family has gone above and beyond for this beautiful girl, and it shows! Her back left leg is gaining more and more movement and strength. Her back right leg has been recovering much slower, but it's finally starting to move, too. We didn't know this would be possible when we decided to give her our all, and we fully expected her to be wheelchair bound for life. But she amazes us more each day! We believe she can do it, and we are praying that both legs will only get stronger until she's running free again one day. I can't thank Shannon Dalessandri and her husband enough for working a miracle for Faith. She is so in love with her foster family that I'm sure they alone give her all the motivation and strength she needs to heal. For everyone that believed in her, too, and donated to her care, thank you. We couldn't have given her the best chance possible without your support. You guys are just as responsible for this miracle! This is what we love to see in rescue ❤️ a team coming together to make magic happen for an animal in need.
