So I hear that this wonderful weather will be replaced with typical August weather again soon. That means less outside time for the gang if it's too hot & humid. So I'll just leave today's short video here to make you smile - ya can't help it 🀣

This past Sunday, the Rescue World lost a true fighter for the animals. Sadly, Beth Britton of Roger's Rescues passed away in a freak accident. When I heard the news, I was speechless.

Anyone who has any of the "Friends" litter: Beth is the woman responsible for getting them to us. She took in a very pregnant stray Mom dog (which she named Sophie) and the pups were born in her home in Louisiana sometime after she & her husband relocated out there for his job. After a few weeks, she was looking for placement for the litter and reached out to us. Fortunately, we were in a position to help. I've known Beth for yrs and she'd been to my home a few times to pick up donations of food back when we had lots to share.

Like any of us in rescue, she touched a lot of lives and a lot of people. My heart breaks for her family πŸ˜”

Cole (& his Mom) sent us chew treats today. EVERY night is good night for a chew here! I'm guessing the fam is still getting settled so hoping all is going well πŸ₯°

Who remembers Cole? He's now a permanent resident of the great state of Colorado! His Mom tells me there are more dogs in the new neighborhood. There's also a golf course just 5 blocks away. In the second photo if you zoom in on the background you can see the beautiful mountains. This was his first walk at the new place (which is much quieter). I'd say he's a happy pup. Just so heartwarming given his start in life. πŸ₯° I needed this given the current state of the rescue. I almost teared up - not gonna lie

Thanks to Sarge (& his mom) for the wet food & treats! Thanks also to Deb S for the bags of treats!

Who doesn't love a little something extra from the day to day?! Our funds are so low lately, the 'extras' are the first to suffer...

Which also reminds me to say thank you to Susan & Chip K for the monetary donation to us as well that we received yesterday.

Much love to all of our donors who don't forget about us

Houston, we have a problem...
We haven't gotten the call to pick up Roxanne's ashes yet, but we did get the invoice in the mail today. Was not expecting this, nor had we planned for it. Not to mention Malibu goes back to the eye specialist for her checkup next week & that visit is $220. Add monthly food bill and promptly have a rise in blood pressure. Zero applications. Anyone looking to get rid of a cool grand? We could put it to good use

Happy July 4th! Here's a last ditch effort to remind you to keep pets indoors after dark and only on-leash for the last time outside before bedtime. You can never be too careful, your pups depend on you ❀

So the mulberrys are starting to slow as the season is winding down. Trixie has decided her season isn't over. If they won't fall, she's gonna go after this 1 low limb & get them herself - stinker!

ISO: #1 Anyone have sheets they're looking to get rid of? I really need to throw out all the ones I have with tears in them & start fresh. I only have like 6 of them that are decent but I cover 5 couches LOL

#2 Anyone have any medium sized Kongs they're not using?

Thanks! πŸ₯°

Well it's time for the dreaded July 4th fireworks warnings and waiting for all the missing dogs that got scared and ran off to appear in my newsfeed. My guess would be that they could happen anytime prior so make sure to be vigilant starting this weekend (hoping the rain will help with that) while letting your pup outside at night.

06/28/2024

Thanks so much Lois P for the food and chew treats! We really appreciate it.

We're scrambling to come up with the funds for Rox's euthansia and cremation so this really helps since the day to day expenses don't end...

Sad News Warning...

Today we said goodbye to our girl Roxanne πŸ˜”

This all happened so quickly, I have yet to wrap my head around it. June 2nd she had a seizure and she's never had one before. By the time we hit June 12th, she had #3. We put her on phenobarbital on 6/12 and she hadn't had another until last night. Last night's presented the same as all the others, but she was not as quick to recover for some reason. Fast forward to about 5a this morning and instead of a grand mal type seizure, she was in a focal seizure (which was very different). The problem was, she wasn't coming out of it. I sedated her with what I had at the house to get to the vet's office. Everyone agreed that she most likely had a brain tumor since these seizures came outta left field at almost 15yrs of age.

We have many dogs here, but her presence in the house is greatly missed. She was the protector/guardian of everyone in the home. No person would ever be able to enter our home without permission. Somewhere in time, she decided that was her job and she was dedicated to it. Take her out of the home & she would let complete strangers approach and was a totally different dog. She wasn't a snuggler, she didn't even want you sitting next to her. Occasionally she'd get in the mood for some pets & scratches but it wasn't often. While she wasn't the warm, fuzzy type, she was part of us.
I told her to look for our Hailey and she would show her all the good fields to run in and the best pizza crust in town.
We miss you already, Rox πŸ’”

I should've posted this yesterday, but it seems relevant for the whole week! It's just gross out there so you may want to limit time outside for 4-leggers. About 15mins and everyone here was panting pretty hard yesterday afternoon so we went back into the AC.

When you care for so many, there's always somethin goin on with somebody here πŸ™„

It's now Roxanne's turn. Sunday afternoon she had a seizure. She's never had one before in her life. We pulled her from WV almost 15yrs ago and she's been one of those dogs that just has had nothing medically wrong with her - like ever. So imagine our surprise yesterday - so hard to watch and there's really nothing you can do while it's happening other than talking to them. So we got a vet appt today to do bloodwork as well as a 4DX test for the damn tick borne illnesses.

Wouldn't ya know it, she tested positive for anaplasmosis. We're hoping that was the route of her seizure as we put her doxy starting tonight. But we have to make sure and only time will tell so the vet said if she has another one, we need to put her on meds. Paws crossed it's the anaplasmosis to blame and we all won't have to go through that again!

Ugh - the gnats are horrible here most of the time because we have a swamp behind our property line. I think Jett hates them just as much as me πŸ™„

05/26/2024

Today we had an adopter drop off a donation as their pup had passed. It always makes me tear up a bit. They all come to me with such care given and I absolutely know how hard it was to pack up this pup's things. Everything is washed & nicely folded, supplements and shampoos separate, toys in their own bag, and I just picture that pup's owner getting everything together. It's heartwarming and sad at the same time. But we are eternally grateful that this pup had a great life with a great family that loved her every day - and we were just a small part of this pup's life pulling her from a WV shelter years ago...

Fireworks...on Memorial day weekendπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ
C'mon people! The title of the holiday literally indicates 'in memory' and it honors/mourns the U.S. military personnel who died while serving in the military. Shocking that anyone would think that fireworks were appropriate SMH

In any case, please keep pups inside once the sun goes down to be extra safe. You can never be too careful. Otherwise, we hope everyone has a great holiday with friends & family!
