FurBabies Animal Rescue

FurBabies Animal Rescue Our Mission: FurBabies is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization consisting of volunteer dog lovers who

FurBabies in partnership with The NC Department of Correction with their New Leash on Life Program. It is a WIN/WIN/WIN... A WIN for the Inmates because they have the opportunity to work with the animals, which gives them a purpose and an opportunity for employment when they are released from prison, a WIN for the dog because it earns a Good Citizenship Certificate which is the first step in becom

ing a therapeutic dog and most schools, nursing homes and other locations allow dogs with Good Citizenship Training to be a part of programs at their facilities, and of course a WIN for the new owner who get and absolutely amazing highly trained rescue dog.

“A New Leash on Life” is a program that allows minimum and medium custody state prisons to partner with local animal shelters, animal welfare agencies, and/or private non-profit agencies to train dogs in preparation for their adoption. In turn, the inmates are given a chance to serve the community by training dogs to be well-behaved pets. Selected dogs are placed with inmate trainers in a prison setting for eight to twelve weeks. The inmates teach basic obedience, house training, and socialization through positive reinforcement and repetition. Dogs are taught to walk on and off the leash and to respond to basic commands. Each prison facility partners with a local partner or sponsor, a volunteer animal trainer, and local merchants or civic organizations that can support the program with needed supplies and services. There are currently two apprenticeship programs offered to inmates in the New Leash on Life program. In these programs inmates have the opportunity to receive certified training that will help them obtain a job upon their release from prison. To obtain apprentice certification through the Department of Labor, an inmate must complete 4000 hours on the job training as well as a total of 288 hours related instruction. The related instruction is either provided through the community college or the volunteer trainer. The first apprenticeship is a Dog Trainer Apprenticeship that began in 2007 at Craven CI and has since expanded to include Eastern CI. The second is an Animal Care Provider Apprenticeship and will begin in 2009 at Brown Creek CI and will allow inmates to complete the on the job training at any of the New Leash on Life facilities.

Available for FOSTER or FOSTER TO ADOPT.
Blue is a quirky little guy with a funny personality.
He was in the shelter as a stray and was pretty protective of his kennel there. Since we brought him into rescue he has settled down a lot but seems to do some fearful guarding of his things. He is really a sweet fella who just needs someone who understands him and will give him a chance to settle into a new way of living safely. If your interested in Blue

Available for FOSTER OR FOSTER TO ADOPT.
Wanda and Wilma are a bonded pair of Corgi Chihuahua mixes. They are litter mates and have been together for their 8 years of life. Wanda is super sweet and pretty outgoing and Wilma is a little protective of her during the initial transition but then becomes very sweet and loving, too. Both are pretty low key and easy. They seem to have been neglected and could use to lose a little weight but are definitely starting to trust and learning to be loved.
Please email : [email protected] if you’re interested in the sweet girls.

ELLIE NEEDS YOUR HELP!!

Ellie is a tiny little Yorkie who was hit by a car. A Good Samaritan saw it happen and picked her up and took her to an emergency vet. Ellie bit the Good Samaritan, surely because of pain and fear, and the Emergency Vet reported the bite to Animal Control and they had to do the STATE MANDATED 10 day quarantine to make sure she didn't have any diseases that could be passed on because of the bite. So Sweet Ellie was in a crate in the shelter for 10 days. PLEASE DO NOT BLAME THE SHELTER FOR THIS, THE 10 DAY QUARANTINE IS A STATE LAW, IF YOU’RE ANGRY ENOUGH TO DO SOMETHING LOBBY THE LAWMAKERS!!

She has 3 pretty severe fractures in her pelvis and leg. (X-Rays). In order to have her seen by a specialist we need to raise funds for here ASAP.
The initial visit will be upwards of $1000. and then a surgical treatment plan will likely be in excess of $5000.

Current Vet Reports:
T25-041412 RADIOGRAPHS - Condition: TRAUMA
Radiographs(VD and lateral views of pelvis): Comminuted fracture of the right ramus and body of the ilium with
dislocation of the right femur, right acetabulum fracture with displacement of the ischium medially. The colon is deviated
to the left due to the pelvis fracture.
ASSESSMENT: The right side of the pelvis is fractured in 3 different places with dislocation of the femur. Recommend
surgical repair of the pelvis with likely amputation of the right rear leg, concern the pelvis fracture could cause a colonic
stricture due to it's displacement.

Weight: 7lbs
Age:4 years old
S*x: Female

DAISY Daisy is a happy go lucky young girl who came to us super thin. Her foster mom has tried everything to get weight on her including many different dog foods and additives. after several weeks she is still not gaining weight so we need to get her in for bloodwork to see if there is anything we are missing.

Remember this boy who was sad and miserable with a horrible ear infection when he came into rescue? Well look at Scotty now!!
