There is no space!
(Unless you have adopted from us, we will always take our dogs back)
Long post as I am very upset and tired...be kind to rescue workers! We all provide a community service, no one gets paid ever and honestly people are just mean these days.
Cold hard truth. Speaking for our rescue. Dogs aren't getting adopted, they aren't getting shared, there are no fosters, donations or volunteers.
My focus is now having to shift from rescue mode to how to take care of these dogs forever because that is where we are heading. Less rescue and more forever sanctuary. There is no interest in adopting. Now it's how do I give these dogs the best life possible. It absolutely annoys me that they're living in kennels instead of in a house because that's what they deserve. They will not fit into my pack. I will do the very best for them I can. I will also pray a forever home finds them.
Let me tell you about my pack. All discarded at one time, pulled by our rescue and then couldn't get adopted for one reason or another. Medical, anxiety, behavioral, hospice etc. I committed to them and stay committed. I pay for each and every one of them out of my own pocket. They're staying forever. 8 in total, 8 all seniors now, 8 someone else's responsibility I took on. 8 lives I am making sure they live to the fullest. 1 pig horribly mistreated that shouldn't have to sit in AC forever, she deserves peace for the rest of her life, she is here. 6 cats all abandoned, 6 more someone else's responsibility that landed here.
The point of this. I have spent the last 8 years cleaning up after people, picking up the shattered souls, laying them to rest, providing them comfort etc, the list goes on.
When you message or call me to take on your responsibility the answer is no at this time. Not because I don't care, not because I don't want to help you. I can't right now! I am tired of the excuses, however, there are true emergencies and circumstances that are out of peoples control, we acknowledge this. More importantly there is no space anywhere. There is only one of me. It is extremely important to me that all animals residing here get love, attention and exercise, everything they deserve. I will not take on more than I can handle, period.
Don't you dare call and message the rescue and get ugly with me because my hands are tied right now. I am doing my part and have been. I will not let anyone make me feel guilty. If you are going to turn a dog out, leave it at a kill shelter, starve it, euthanize it, shoot it etc, that speaks volumes about the human being you are. I am done being threatened.
For the love of dogs, all animals really, start spaying and neutering. DON'T save an animal unless you are going to provide for it, rescues are full. Lastly, unless you can make a 15 year commitment to an animal, get married, have a baby, move and all of life's other obstacles with said animal don't get one!
Rescuers are tired!!!
Recap, intake is closed! Unless dogs get adopted or pass of natural causes, we can't provide any assistance, cold hard truth. Angel and Sh**un are and will remain available to adopt. Adoption fees are sponsored and we are also paying for 4 week obedience training for them, both are completely vetted.
Please only message us if you are interested in adopting or fostering.
A heart felt thank you to all that are kind and bend over backwards to help in any way you can. You are angels and so appreciated. We couldn't do this without your support.
Of course to all our amazing adopters that have given our dogs the most incredible homes, thank you just isn't enough!🩷
We know the perfect homes are out there for Angel and Sh**un. Please share them.🐾
