Just a reminder: we know how tempting it can be to share our dinner with our pets, especially since they are family too…..butttttt some of those dishes may have ingredients that can be toxic or cause digestive issues for our kitties and puppies. So let’s be mindful to give our furry babies pet friendly foods this Thanksgiving!🐾🦃🧡

Hey friends or rescues…..
I have a friend that has adopted 29 cats 🐈‍⬛🐈 when they tore down the Mansion House in the Washington area. My friend would like to have ALL of the cats spayed and neutered, can someone help me pass information to them of where they can go where they may be able to get a discount of some sort for that many babies?!
Thank you in advance!!!🐾♥️🐾 cat

DO NOT BUY DOGS FROM THE AMISH

We get calls every week from dog owners that have purchased a dog from the Amish, only to find out that their new best friend has significant issues to overcome. Unfortunately, dogs that come from the Amish do tend to have significant, lifelong behavioral problems.

For a quick background, the overwhelming majority of Amish “breeders” are not properly breeding dogs. They don’t breed for health, temperament, or the betterment of the breed, they breed exclusively for money. They are PUPPY MILLS.

Let’s say for example that they are breeding French bulldogs. They find a male and a female, regardless of health or behavioral concerns, and make the breeding happen. No thought was put into the health or quality of life of the puppies that will come out. No health testing the parents, no behavioral/temperament testing of the parents, etc.

Once the puppies are born, they are essentially left in a room with the mother until they are ready to be sold. No enrichment, no health testing, no socialization, nothing. When a prospective buyer comes along and sees the dogs in these conditions, they either feel sorry for them, or they have no clue that this isn’t normal.

Because these puppies were never socialized or cared for properly, they develop significant fear and anxiety issues, as well as difficulty potty training and crate training. We are dealing with several cases of aggression towards people and dogs, and these dogs all came from the Amish.

This is textbook backyard breeding, but on a huge scale, and it has only grown and grown in recent years.

If you are looking to get a deal on a purebred dog, there is no such thing. If you don’t want to spend thousands on a well bred puppy from a reputable and ethical breeder, that’s totally fine. But buying a dog for a discounted rate from the Amish (in our experience) comes with significant baggage.

If you must have a certain breed of dog but can’t afford to go to a reputable and ethical breeder, do your research and find a rescue or shelter that has that breed of dog. They are still an unknown quantity because you don’t know anything about their history, but you won’t be perpetuating inhumane breeding practices.

From my first picture, to my last picture.. it is with the most saddest heart to share that Levi has crossed the rainbow bridge 😢💔🌈
Levi was the sweetest and my most easiest fur friend to give his injections since his diagnosis of diabetes. Unfortunately, cancer was the enemy😢

It’s amazing how he had and would ooze this calming effect when he was near you. He had the best longest whiskers that would tickle when he would purr up against you. He loved to play, on his terms, of course. And when he was done, he was done. He had the best sleep positions, but always looked comfy. His fur brother Vlad was an escape artist, and if given the chance he’d probably follow behind. 🙃
Levi, along with his fur siblings, truly had the best life, lots of love and the best humans. 💜 When Karla text me the other day to let me know that he took a turn for the worse and then yesterday to let me know of his passing, I can’t help but to go numb. When I tell you at the meet and greets, “I will love your fur babies more than you.. when you are away”….. I truly mean I love your fur babies.♥️♥️♥️
I am sooo grateful that they went away 2 weekend’s ago and I got to spend time with him.♥️
RIP sweet Levi, you will be missed tremendously! Auntie Tawni will love you always.🥺💔🐾🌈
