She was brought into a near by CT high-kill-shelter as a stray so we don't know much about her. Though shy she loves people and has met other dogs politely. She's medium energy, loves exploring or just sitting next to staff on the bench, where she can get pets and treats. She'll even sit and stay for treats when asked. To learn more, please reach out! Her time could be limited.

UPDATE: THIS PUPPY HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

ON 6/4 THIS PUPPY WILL END UP IN A OVERPOPULATED HIGH-KILL-SHELTER AS HE STILL HAS NO PLACE TO GO!!! HIS PLACEMENT IS NOW EXTREMELY URGENT!!!

This super sweet, handsome, playful, kid friendly pup was wondering the streets just a few days ago, alone and lost! His finder was easily able to take him off the streets and bring him home. Unfortunately, she can only hold him for a few more days; he has until 6/4 at which point he will be surrendered to the shelter (a shelter nearby CT in NYC - we can help with transport). Sadly the local shelter is also a high-kill-shelter in desperate need of space and resources. They are asking us to help prevent this sweet pup from making yet another stop before making his way into a home. A stop at the shelter, at his age (at any age) can be extremely traumatic! Please help us prevent this, please reach out to learn more! What we know now is that he is approx. 4m old, weights approx. 25-30lbs now, will likely be a medium size dog as an adult and is enjoying his finders home and kids!

***IMPORTANT*** PLEASE READ AND PLEASE SHARE! WITHOUT HOMES AND FOSTER HOMES THERE WILL BE NO END TO THE DEATH OF INNOCENCE!

PLEASE DON’T BLAME THE SHELTERS! HELP THE SHETLERS!

Shelters across the country have been struggling with dog population for well over a year, housing dogs in crates for lack of proper space and having at risk list for the first time! During this time, many of the shelters have made continued efforts to decrease intakes and increase placements, providing resources to owners, adopters, and rescue groups. They have tried new tactics, like making all easy-to-adopt dogs immediately available for placement, working to find placement before intake, and even temporarily closing resource centers and suspending non-emergency intakes. The shelters are not alone, rescue groups are struggling to find forever homes and foster homes which would help elevate the pressure the shelters are under. Our placements are taking longer than ever in the over 25yrs we have been doing rescue. This has been an incredibly challenging time for people, shelters, and rescue groups alike. We are suffering, the dogs are suffering more, and the reality is that many of the dogs are dying.

THIS IS A CRISIS! The shelters need our help! We need your help! We need forever and foster homes urgently! Understanding, patient and loving families that are willing to give a dog a chance! Please if ever, you considered rescuing a dog or fostering a dog, the need is greatest now, reach out to us to learn more!

To our adopters and fosters, THANK YOU so much for all your love and support! We could not be a rescue without you!

UPDATE: NANA HAS BEEN PLACED!

Nana URGENTLY needs a forever or foster home of her own! Please reach out if interesting in learning more and please share!

Nana is approx. 3yrs old, young yet mature, fully grown at 60lbs and though on the larger side of medium, has balanced energy leaning toward mild. Sadly, Nana is currently in a high-kill-shelter nearby CT where she spends much of her days alone in a run surrounded by so many others in need; stress levels for all are so high☹ Though the shelter tries to place as many animals as possible, their space and resources are limited, and they have a hard time placing the med-large dogs. We have also never seen the shelters as full as they are today. Please help, please inquire and/or share Nana’s post, her time could be limited! Nana has shown to be such an amazing gal! She walks well on a leash, enjoys walks in the park, and is unfazed by park activity, including runners, children, other dogs, and even geese. She's such a gem. volunteer favorite for walks and even a favorite for doggie play dates where she gets to play with other shelter dogs!

UPDATE: ALL 6 PUPPIES HAVE BEEN SAVED!

We've been made aware of a great need - sadly 6 puppies estimated to be 3-5 months old currently ranging in weight between 13-20 pounds, siblings, 3 males and 3 females have just been dropped off at a nearby high-kill-shelter and are in urgent need of foster or forever homes. Though they are underweight, behind in socialization and training, they are very sweet, some are shy, some more confident, all have so much potential in the right hands! They are beautiful blue tricolors, though their pics don't show, they are model ready. Please reach out if you'd like to learn more and share. Time is set against them!

04/26/2024

UPDATE: KENAI HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

***Sadly, we don't have a home or foster for Kenai yet, please continue to share! We know there's someone out there for him!***

We URGENTLY need an adopter of foster home for Kenai! Please reach out if you are interested in learning more or share to help in our efforts to save him!

Kenai is currently located at a high-kill-shelter nearby that is overpopulated (caring for over 200 dogs), understaffed (working round the clock), and running out of resources (many of the dogs are in popup crates in halls). Though he is listed as 2 years old, we believe he is younger. He's a big boy at 65pds but walks pretty well on a leash. Kenai is stunningly beautiful, even more so in-person, with a velvet like so soft, rich with color coat and eyes that just melt you. He is also super sweet, grabbing everyone attention not just for his looks, but for his charm, and silly ways. He is a little jumpy but is smart, a quick learning and very food motivated:) He's willing/wanting to please which will make him a great student! Kenai is a novelty dog at the shelter, meaning they have him as part of the socialization team and in playgroups with other dogs where he is doing extremely well, even taking cues from the other dogs, very impressive especially given his likely age and where he spends his day (mostly alone in a run, side by side, with so many other homeless animals who are all under so much stress). Kenai is such a good boy, even volunteers are allowed to walk him and they LOVE to do so. We would all LOVE to see this big, goofy, playful, sweet, smart, silly guy, Kenai in a home (forever or foster) a safe place, where he can be loved and love in turn, he has lots of it to give! Please help save Kenai, reach out soon!

UPDATE: Chicken and Goose have been adopted!

We took in 2 sweet greencheek conures. Please meet Chicken & Goose. Chicken is the lighter bird- ( Cinnamon color) and Goose is the darker one, ( yellow sided color). They are very bonded so must go together. Chicken is more outgoing but Goose is coming around, we been calling her a she? Shes not aggressive or bites at all, just a little shy. Foster mom loves them!

03/31/2024

UPDATE: TULLY HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

Months have come and gone and gone and gone and lots of dogs have found forever homes of their own as Tully patiently awaits his. Tully's not a flashy color, not a small or large dog, or a fancy breed and with one eye he looks a little different then the others (we think cute as can be with his wink). He's also a little shy and takes time to warm up but is so sweet and such a love as he gets to know you a little. We're hoping someone soon can see him for all his has to give and chooses him to be a part of their family! Oh how he would love that so much! Tully is doing amazing in his foster home and though he will be missed when placed, Tully having a family could open up a space for another to have a chance! Please reach out to learn more!

**PLEASE SHARE our special boy Tully, he has been with us for months. He had to have an eye removed and is completely healed from that. Tully is about 4 years old, very sweet boy, doesn’t mind dogs, but please no cats. He loves everyone he meets including kids. He's totally housebroken. Just a happy couch potato. He's the perfect companion ❤️

03/29/2024

UPDATE: Toothless has been rescued!

PLEASE HELP US SAVE TOOTHLESS (named after the DreamWorks animation character for his handsome resemblance, and playful, inquisitive, intelligent personality)! Toothless, is what we like to call a lowrider, is only 37 pounds and is approx. 4 years young. He's currently located at a high-kill-shelter just outside of CT (in NY). The shelter staff works hard to get these animals out but can't keep up with intake, often running out of space, so he is URGENT and his time limited. Toothless is sweet, as you can see, even allows you to carry him, and also a little shy, on his dog-to-dog interaction he was too shy to play, was reserved but still such a good boy; he even scored great on his full behavioral evaluation. We're looking for a foster or forever home that can take him directly from the shelter (we can help with transport to most areas in CT/NJ/NY). Please reach out if you'd like to learn more! Toothless is patiently waiting for his chance to love and be loved again!

UPDATE: SULLY HAS BEEN RESCUED!

RUNNING OUT OF TIME! WE STILL DON'T HAVE A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME FOR SULLY! PLEASE HELP US SAVE HIM!

Sully is in URGENT need of a foster or forever home! If interested please reach out or if you know someone that can help, please share his story! Sully’s time is LIMITED! He’s currently located in an overcrowded high-kill-shelter (nearby NYC – we help transport to CT), spending most days and nights in a pop-up-crate, as they don’t have space for him in a run. Brought in as a stray, emaciated, and clearly not having received love and care in some time (if ever). Though his history is a mystery, with the help of just a few, his bright future could be near! Sully is super sweet and truly deserving of a chance! Sharing a cute story that was shared with us, Sully recently went out for a walk in the park with a shelter volunteer (you must watch the video - https://youtu.be/0QhZws4hMww) and came across another large breed stray male dog, not one he knew, but one he made friends with and helped the shelter bring in out of the cold! Please, when you read these next few lines, don’t let them deter you from helping. Sully has medical needs. He has a ll-lll heart murmur which based on information provided, he could very well live a long and comfortable life. He won’t be a running or hiking dog, but would love min-adventures, walks in town and mild life living. No special diet, but a yummy grain food would be much appreciated. Though Sully is available for adoption through the shelter (for now), his chances of being selected or adopted by someone that will truly give him what he needs is slim to none. We can change that we can save him! PLEASE HELP US SAVE SULLY!

UPDATE: JAX HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

!!!!!ADOPT JAX!!!!! Jax patiently waiting OVER 5 MONTHS in a shelter, up for adoption, where he gave every potential adopter his very best wiggle, in hopes he would be recognized, watching puppies, small dogs, fancy dogs, chosen and off to their homes but nobody ever chose Jax. This is so hard to understand, as Jax is so handsome, a perfect med size (45 pds) cutie, super sweet, gentle, calm, with the very best personality, friendly to people, good with dogs, great on a leash, even carries his toys with him (endearing), is fully housebroken (he waits like a gentleman), and is so well-mannered that he does not even need a crate when left alone! Almost forgot to mention, he also loves to give kisses and is so appreciative of attention! Though adopters passed Jax by at the shelter, he did not go unnoticed, the shelter staff, volunteers and even rescue fell in love with him, and all worked very hard together to get him out (freedom ride pics above)! We are soooooo excited to share with you that Jax is in a TLC foster home now where he is doing amazing! His foster family has only the most wonderful things to say about him which we would love to share with you! If you are interested in learning more about Jax please reach out! His dream, our hope is that he won’t have to wait too much longer for a fur-ever home he can call his very own❤️!
