I have a deep love for animals. We rescue animals little to big, even farm animals. Some animals are adopted out and some will remain here till the end.

We specialize in puppies and small breed dogs, farm animals and mini horses.�

Well the time has come. We have done our job. Paige and Ripp are available for adoption. Paige was rescued from a kill pen last year. She was almost dead she was so sick. No one expected her to make it through the night. Well we were not going to stop fighting for her and she wasn't going to give up either. She had a reason to fight and fight hard we just didn't know why. After many many late nights and weeks of treatments she pulled through. On September 9th we were blessed with a beautiful baby jack. Ripp should have never been born after all the meds mom was given but he was a fighter too. Well it is with a heavy heart that we announce the time has come for them both to find their forever homes. I will be extremely picky about where they go. Paige made it out of HELL with her unborn son and I will not allow that to ever happen again. Can be adopted together or separate. Together available now. Separate not until Dec 10th.
Adoption fees will apply and a no KP, Sale Barn transferable contract must be signed as well.
Y'all have watched her for over a year and now it's time to help find her a loving forever family and Ripp too.

This precious baby is available again for adoption. His last home fell through due to personal reasons. He is about 18 weeks old and absolutely adorable. Mom is a Siamese and dad is Ragdoll. So he is a Ragamiese. Y'all he is adorable

09/09/2021

Y'all remember Paige??????
Well she gave us an absolutely amazing gift this morning.....❤😁❤

08/22/2021

Not too many pigs will cuddle up to a kitten and not too many kittens would cuddle up to a pig.
Oh Well nobody ever said my animals were normal. 🤣

08/22/2021

This amazing baby is back up for adoption. His potential new Mom got sick and is now unable to adopt. Dad was Ragdoll and mom a siamese so he is a Ragamese. He is absolutely beautiful. If you are interested please let me know.

07/29/2021

Had a few people message me asking how I am doing and wanted to know if I could post an update.
First of all Thank You for checking in on me. I truly do appreciate it.
I am still hanging in there. Some days are good some not so much and some ...... well they just suck. I try and stay busy well, as much as possible. I absolutely love being outside but the heat is taking it's toll on me. I have learned that bending over is not too good as I face plant 90% of the time. Yes, just dizziness kicks in quick.
So we just don't do that. Lol 🤣 Truly in my best interest. I really miss taking in all the babies but worry and stress isn't the best thing.
Paige (rescue donkey from Bastrop Kill Pen) is really doing well. She has gotten fatter so still wondering if she is pregnant. Vet said yes but didn't physically check. Willow, Digit, Bandit were adopted out to amazing homes and are all local so I can keep an eye on them and drop in to say hi. 😁
I still try and help as much as possible without physically taking any babies in. It has been hard.
I will definitely keep y'all posted and Thanks again for all of your prayers and kind words.
Love y'all
😘

UPDATE:
She is heading to a trial home tonight. If it doesn't work out I will let everyone know

Still needing immediate help for this beautiful girl. She is very sweet and needs a new home. This is not because of anything she did by the way. For more info please pm me. She is good with kids and other dogs. I am not sure about cats. Just hasn't been around them. She is 3 yrs old, spayed and current on vaccinations and house broke. She has also had 4 months of obedience training. Fenced yard definitely preferred. Please pm me and we will talk.
Please share

07/01/2021

These two definitely keep me entertained

06/15/2021

Hopefully since it was about 8:30 pm she had her baby bedded down somewhere. Oh I love my Felina

06/13/2021

Oh My
I need a bigger Pot to cook the dogs food in.
🤦‍♀️

06/13/2021

Ok it's late and I am beyond tired today but I have to say something. I know that most of you won't understand but...... I just have to say this.
Ok, I get that an auction sells animals to the highest bidder. That's their job and I am not faulting them for that but...... Why can't auctions say. Open to public bidding but absolutely no kill buyers. Have people sign a contract stating that they are not a kill buyer or affiliated with any kill pen. If they find out differently then that person will he fined for falsely identifying themselves and that fine go to the rescue or individual that bails this animal from the kill pen to help pay for the enormous cost that they will and do incur. Trust me......... they are usually VERY SICK and it is very expensive to treat these animals. (Strangles, Pneumonia, Malnutrition, Severe Abuse, Neglect, Ringworms, abscess, burns, gashes and more) I personally have experienced each and everyone of the above plus some with horses and donkeys I have taken in from Kill Pens. With this being said........ there was a Buffalo at an auction this past weekend. Now this buffalo is at a kill pen. The kill pen is now advertising this buffalo stating that she is not in danger of going to slaughter but bet your ass they are asking an exorbitant amount of money for her. If they dont get it from the public then she will be bounced around from auction to auction to auction until someone pays what they want for her. Then when you point this out to the KP they say ohhhh well......see it was this..she was ours and well..... yet your add says you know nothing about her but she is super sweet....BULL S*** Liars
I have had a run in with a KP and they can be extremely dangerous and I know a rescuer that was actually assaulted at a KP. Nope they are not nice people. Some even portray themselves to be fighting for the animal but the only thing they fight for is their FREAKING POCKET BOOK!!!!!
Here is a link for you to read about kill pens
https://wildhorseproject.org/whatarekillpens/

Then go to YouTube and search. Horse Slaughter
If it doesn't make to Sick to your Stomach.....then something is wrong with you. I dont know how anyone in this industry can sleep at night.
I pray that Totonka makes it to a good home.
I pray that this industry will be shut down permanently!!!!!!
I truly dont know what the hell is wrong with people.
Below are pics of Totonka
and some horses that were at kill pens showing just how horrible these places are.
Beware these pics are Graphic.

06/13/2021

Been Gone ALL Day!!!!
What happens when you don't even get to start feeding Ponies until almost 7:30 pm.....
You have some
BIG MAD PONIES
and DONKEY

These precious babies turned 3 weeks old Yesterday
So cute

05/06/2021

Ohhhh how I LOVE these babies
Paige, Archie, Sugar and Bandit

05/04/2021

Felina came to see me tonight. I LOVE this girl so much. Looks like Felina might be expecting.....
Can't wait to see her and her baby.

05/04/2021

Can't believe these precious babies turned 1 week old yesterday. They are sooooo cute.

04/30/2021

When you just aren't feeling well and decide to take a nap and Scar says
I got you mom. Let me comfort you. LOL
He is such a sweetie
He stayed just like that for an hour before he fell asleep and slid off.
Ignore my face PLEASE 🤣🤦‍♀️

04/23/2021

Moved Paige to back paddock today.
Moving her was a sight. I went in and caught her. Wasn't her plans by the way. Bobby had her lead rope since he knew I couldn't pull on her. I was behind her trying to push while praying..... please don't kick Mommy. NOPE Paige doesn't lead. 🤦‍♀️
Well after making no progress and trying food I decided to get the lung line (very very very long lead rope). So with one lead attached to her halter and the lunge line tied around her neck then wrapped around her butt we started making progress. We made it to the pasture and everyone came running to meet and greet. LOL By this time she was PAST ready to go.
They are still not accepting her into the herd but hopefully they will get it all worked out tonight before the storms move in. Paige is an Ass but I sure do LOVE her.

04/23/2021

We moved Paige to the pasture with everyone else since Darby left today. It will take a little bit but they will all end up great friends. Sugar is currently the the HEAD MARE so she is definitely showing dominance over Paige but Paige is so laid back that she isnt arguing. They all settled down pretty quick. Let's hope it stays that way. If Sugar will chill. LOL

04/23/2021

Darby went to an amazing home today. They will continue to work with her daily to continue her progress. They will send updated pics and videos as well to allow us to keep up with her progress. Congrats Darby we Love you.

Helping a friend
This boy is amazing for sure. He was born on Jan 8th. He is Full blooded Border Collie. He is from working parents and he prefers to be working. He has always been the skittish one of the litter and seems to be very shy about being petted. Not sure why. He was the only one that way. What he is happy at doing is working. He has been around horses, chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese and pigs. He is learning his herding skills very well. Please keep in mind that these dogs are meant to work and without a job they get bored and WILL HERD YOUR KIDS. Can they be part of the family? ABSOLUTELY!!! But they need a job. Will be picky on a home. She wants him to work and be LOVED. You do need to have an understanding of the breed please. Dad is of old breeding lines so has the fuller coat. Mom is of the current lines which is more slick and developed for speed and to help with agility. PM me for info

04/19/2021

It has been an absolutely beautiful morning. So I decided no better place for lunch than outside at a table watching these beautiful babies. Soaking up the sun, breathing in this cooler air (while we can) and just enjoy. Have a blessed day.

04/19/2021

Ok I briefly introduced
Little Man
Earlier today. I will update on his story once I learn more myself. Kinda blurry right now.
Meanwhile...... I am not a fan of the name Little Man and would like to come up with another name. (Even if his call name has to remain the same depending on his reactions.)
Paints and appaloosa's always make me think of Native American names so that's what I am looking for. Any Suggestions

04/19/2021

Look at the size difference between these two. By the way Sugar is NOT tall. Lol
I literally just removed the space between them.
Archie is such a cutie

04/18/2021

Yep, I did a thing
Meet Little Man

04/16/2021

Well, I wasn't planning on putting this out there yet but, since someone says that I don't have a medical reason to Not take in a litter of bottle puppies and that I just don't want to help and I am being Lazy I guess I will clear the air.
Well as everyone knows I had a massive heart attack in December. It had been a crazy busy hectic day. I had 28 puppies and 32 dogs total. Not to mention cats and horses. Some pups were still nursing (no momma), some I was weaning and teaching to eat mush and others were eating well. Everyone was bathed that day, shots given and pics done for adoption photos. I guess it was more than I could handle that day and hence the heart attack. Well I ended up dumping a TON of responsibility on my daughter to care for, find fosters and adopters for 28 puppies in less than 72 hours.
I had stints put in while in the hospital and later at a FOLLOW up apt. Learned that I needed more stints put in. Now...... about 5 yrs ago I started having migraines and dizzy spells and ended up at a neurologist where I learned that I had an interior arterial blockage in my brain that is inoperable. Ok, well that explains some things. Well during my pre-OP testing they checked the blockage to determine where we were before surgery. At the time I was told that it had gotten worse which I figured so since some symptoms had gotten much worse over the past several months. The mid part of March I received a phone call from a new neurologist I had been transferred to and wanted to discuss this blockage and they decided to blurt out Mrs. Lucas we are sorry to inform you that the blockage is much much worse and is now buldging and pushing on certain areas of your brain. You don't have long before it bursts. We are sorry but you have 6 months to 1 yr to live. After a couple of seconds I blurted out who asked you. I didnt ask you for your opinion. It means crap to me. Probably shouldn't have reacted that way but I didn't ask for their OPINION. Now with that being said. They know nothing. I know that they make their predictions based on knowledge and experience but that's all it is ..... A Prediction!!!!! Only God knows when my time card is due to be punched. That may be 10 minutes, 10 days, 6 months, 1 yr, or 20 yrs. ONLY GOD KNOWS. I will say though that with this seed of knowledge planted in your head you do start thinking more. So, with that being said I decided that I needed to downsize and stop taking in additional dogs and puppies. We decided that if I wanted to go fishing then I should be able to go without worrying about feedings every 3 hrs. Worrying about leaving 32 dogs for my family to deal with. Yes, my issues have gotten worse but they have been. It is hard to stay upright alot of the times but we have ALL determined that I need a BUBBLE....🤣 well I need a BIG BUBBLE NOW. You have heard Weebles Wobble but they DON'T Fall Down.
THEY LIED 🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
I do get blinding Migraines more often unfortunately.
I DO get very Dizzy with no Warning so Bobby basically goes into ALL Stores with me so when I become dizzy I have him to hold on to. Really don't want to Face Plant in TSC. Lol
Brittany drives me most places so that is a huge help as well.
You may even see me with a cane on occasion when I am out alone so that I can balance myself a little better. Better than eating dirt. Especially when most of the dirt around here has some animals p**p on it somewhere. 🤣🤣🤣🤮
So with this and my other health issues this just seemed like the thing I needed to do. NO I am not letting everyone go as I NEED to have animals to care for. I JUST DO
Now, I am not putting this out there for anyone's pity or to say I am so sorry. I won't however turn down your prayers. Bobby and I have talked about this many times and I am ok with everything. I know that God has his plans and I am ok with whatever HE has in store for me. I will however start smelling the Rose's a little more often. Appreciating the beauty that is all around us. Go fishing and go camping. Enjoy Life. Do some gardening and watch the Sunset. Love a little deeper and appreciate those in my life a little more. I truly PRAY this is something we all start doing more often. I still have to try and find homes for all the Kitty cats so if anyone is interested please let me know. LOL
I will still post pics of those that will be staying here and keep everyone updated on those that have been adopted. I truly love and I am so grateful for each and every one. Y'all have a wonderful evening and I am so sorry this was a BOOK and not a POST. 🤣🤷‍♀️

Well we attempted to adopt out one of the cats this week but it didn't go so well and I was shocked. Scar is the sweetest most laid back and lazy cat. You can pack him around and nope doesn't care. JoJo can try and pull him around by his tail..... Nope nothing. When I sweep and mop I literally push him around with the broom and mop because no he isnt moving. He was there first. Well adoption day arrived. I was already having a hard time with it anyway. I cried like a baby when I adopted out Sebastian and BenJaé and Scar wasn't going to be any easier. I was already about to loose it. Well new parents show up. I pick up Scar's lazy big butt and slowly make it to the door and outside. They really seemed to like him. Scar however for the first time EVER was standoffish. He clawed his way out of my arms a couple of times and ran back to the front door to get inside. She finally took him from me as well, it looked like it was going to start raining again soon. He was NOT happy. She ended up having to put him in a blanket to try and calm him down. Once in the truck things got worse. HE WASN'T HAVING IT!!!!!! I went to the truck and we mutually decided today was definitely not the day.
Scar about tore me up getting out of my arms and bolting for the front door. Once inside he ran to the bedroom layed down on the bed and looked at me. I swear I heard him say:
NOT TODAY HEIFER !!!!!!
Another adoption fail.
Scar may be a permanent resident.
So we still currently have 4 cats. Looks like we both may be starting allergy shots. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
Gotta Love this big ol boy

04/12/2021

Been a crazy long but productive past few days. Trying to get some things rearranged for the ponies and slowly we are getting there. Got some of the storage building cleaned out and got rid of some tack we no longer needed. Trying to get to where I have a place to store some feed and a few extra hay bales for next winter. Yard Mowed. Had someone come and get all the scrap metal and got it out of the way. Yay!!!!! Cleaned troughs and burnt some old hay that was on the ground. Still more of that to do. Then we started pulling Fence. We are moving the ponies to the big horses old area since they depleted their grass supply. It was fenced with barbless wire which was fine for the big horses but we are NOT comfortable with it for the ponies. We are completely enclosing it in field fence to help hopefully with their safety. Still have to buy another 330ft roll so hopefully we can swing that this weekend. Fingers crossed. Purchased two water troughs their size so little Archie can reach everything. Gotta love these babies. Let Sugar and Archie out for a few hours while we were out there today and then moved them back to their secure pen this evening.

04/11/2021

When they said....
Get a Weighted Blanket.... You will love it. I don't think this is what they had in mind.
🤦‍♀️
But I do Love them

Hi Iâ��m Rosie!!!!!
I am approximately 1.5 years old.
I am full of happiness and loads of energy!!!!

Currently Iâ��m looking for a new home, you see my mom and dad donâ��t have enough time to play with me and think that someone else could give me more opportunities than they could at the moment.

If you are interested please let me know!! Iâ��m looking for a great happy home with lots of room to run and play!! I do sleep but Iâ��m better at getting the zoomies during a game of chase!!

I love treats and take them very gently!!
Iâ��ll eat dog food or scraps (I prefer alllll the scraps!!) and I do get along with people and other dogs!!!

Please let me know if youâ��re interested in being my forever home!! My parents and I would love if i found a home to grow up with

EDIT: COPPER HAS FOUND AN AMAZING HOME. ROOM TO RUN. A BOY TO PLAY WITH AND ANOTHER DOG FOR A FRIEND. CONGRATS COPPER❤❤🎉🎉🎉 Look at Copper go

I am so ready for next week. Hopefully my back will hold out until then but the babies are taken care of.

It is with much sadness that I have to tell you that baby Bleu didn't make it. He started having seizures about 1am this morning. From about 1am to 6am he had about 1 an hour with each lasting a good minute or so. Eventually I just sat up in bed with him on my chest so that if I dozed off I could immediately feel when he started to have one. Then at 6:30 this morning they started coming back to back. Bleu died in my arms at 7:20 this morning. It was incredibly heartwrenching to hold him with each seizure as they became worse knowing the outcome was going to be good or maybe it was. I asked God on his last seizure to just please take this baby and stop his suffering and my prayer was answered. I know Bleu is no longer in pain and is rooting up the grass in heaven and being a happy piggy. Rest in Peace Bleu ❤ ******* I attached a video of one of his seizures so please dont watch it if you don't want to see what he went through ******

I was so happy to see this girl today. I haven't seen Felina in over a week and I always get nervous when she is MIA. But when we seen her at the back of the property we of course called her name. She threw her head up and here she came. Momma I need my feed. LOL Oh how I love this girl.

For your listening Pleasure Make sure your Volume is UP ❤🤣🤣🤣❤

These puppies are the ones that were brought to us from Shreveport. They were brought in with their mom. These babies break my heart. They have no idea what human contact is. They flee from fear. They will snap from fear. They had no idea what dog food was. Only mommas milk. We are introducing them to food, we are introducing them to humans. They need constant contact to let them know that they are ok. It is ok to be petted, cuddled and loved. This is not going to end with us. This will need to be an ongoing process for the ones that adopt them. They will need continued socialization. This will be imperative to their social skills as an adult. Oh my Goodness these babies are soooooo CUTE!!!!! ❤❤❤❤

When your headed outside to go water and feed horses and you hit a really slick spot on the porch after all this rain and you fall flat on your back. Not Good I felt and heard my back and neck snap..... OH CRAP I lay there for awhile trying to decide if I can or should move. Well after a little while I crawl to my feet. Let's go get this done..... Turn on the water and well dang it..... Broken!!!!! Can you say DONE Thank Goodness Bobby loves me and fixes it when he got home tonight and hauled the bales of hay since there was absolutely no way I could do it. Yep I need a day off

Thelma & Louise They are just precious

Praying for Felina. Doe days end this weekend. 🙏 I see her next week.
