She came in as stray from Hemet on 6/17, no one has reclaimed. She needs a responsible adopter or dedicated foster and reputable Rescue to bail her out of there. If you can help in anyway, please comment below and maybe a plan can come together for her.

Good morning from the pack walk!!!

So hard to believe!!! In April, he could barely stand and was basically dying. Now Ernie is playing in the pool daily, running to catch the ball and feels like a million bucks. It’s what a little love will do.

The heartbreaking reality….

Theodore, Theo, was rescued just two days ago from San Bernardino. This evening came out and met the pack. Could not have gone smoother and I think he is so happy to be here and definitely happy to be out of the kennel. He spent the last five weeks in…who knows before that. Thank you, Randy, for cutting off the mats and the clumps of urine and f***s and burrs that were stuck to/in his fur. He is definitely on the road to the rest of his life. He is an amazing boy!!!

Everyone is full even Chino Valley and I’ve never seen them full. They have some really super cute dogs if you’re looking for a younger pup.

A lot of times, we rescue dogs that goes straight to a foster and then get adopted and we never even meet them. We’ve been doing more of these lately because we’re so full at the sanctuary. It all boils down to the same thing, we save a life! These are all dogs off the euthanasia list that are down to the last day and out of time.
Frank2 a little lab mix was rescued and adopted fairly quickly after he got over his upper respiratory infection.
Sunshine was a small shepherd mix that was said to have a bad back leg, but as it turns out, that was not the case. She must’ve been faking it in the shelter.
River is a large German shepherd that had two masses that turned out to be a foreign object and an abscess. One strained and removed everything is perfect. He is now jogging down at Tempe town center with his amazing Foster and will have a meet and greet later this afternoon.
We are so busy it’s hard to keep up on all the success stories, but rest assured, we are busy bees in the background, rescuing, dogs, right and left and just figuring out places to put them.
Attached are some pictures of river. Thank you, Lauren for being such an awesome Foster!!! Lauren has agreed to become a regular foster for us as we have dogs that we pull from euthanasia that need a landing pad.
We need more people like Lauren. If you’re interested in fostering or adopting, please call and help. we need all the help we can get right now.
