We have a need again to provide food for the dogs that are in the care of the Sheriff; if you can, we could use any and all donations of dog food or money to purchase dog food. The point of contact is Rana Laird Wingo, you can reach her through her page.

We sincerely appreciate each and everyone of you who have donated to this need in the past and helped us keep the dogs fed. If you have questions, reach out!

EDITED!!!! FROM Rana Laird Wingo EDITED!!!!

We got a SOS from city of Trinity today. They have found a momma pit with 2 day old puppies. She was dumped. Puppies will not do well in this heat or City Kennels. We need help networking her and the puppies to go to a foster or rescue. They need a secure , safe home with fenced yard, shelter from weather. We can offer assistance with food if someone has a safe place to house them while we network.
If you can help please let me know or call City of Trinity to talk to animal control officer.
Hoping to get photos later.

Looking for your next best friend? Piney Woods Animal Sanctuary needs YOU!!! We have two sets of puppies ready for new homes! They range in age from 6 months to 8 weeks. All are Black Mouth Cur mix. Fantastic, loving family dogs. Excellent all around working/hunting dogs. Do well with other dogs since they all live here together. We cannot continue to feed and house 28 dogs. Please, if you are looking for a new fur friend or know someone who is, reach out! We would love to connect you with one of our puppies.

Most popular corner of the house - this corner by the stove with the AC vent! Makes cooking a royal pain since I don't have the ❤️ to make them move so I try to straddle the space or stand on one leg. The things we do for our fur faces.

06/06/2023

Dog pile on the AC vent 😆😆 Tank (the Golden) Oslo (the Blue Ticked puppy in the middle) and Blu the (Larger Blue Ticked Black Mouth Cur). Happiness is a pile of puppies and an AC vent.

We, the Founders and right now only volunteer staff of Piney Woods Animal Sanctuary have a serious question for all of you.

While we wait for the Formation Approval and 501(c) 3 number we have been hearing an under current of conversation that is less than supportive. Its beginning to sound like the Community wants (and desperately needs) a safe place for abandoned, dumped, surrendered animals BUT the Volunteer base is not there. Over and over we've been told "we can keep you loaded up" with dogs and cats but that is where the interest ends.

Volunteering to WORK at the Shelter, clean kennels, feed and water animals, walk animals, give meds or whatever is needed to support the animal is less than appealing. When we begin discussing THAT aspect of the Shelter interest drops right off. We get it! We are housing 29 dogs in a range of ages in 1300 square feet which is also our home. We work all day, every day taking care of these animals who quite literally have no one else.

Before we invest any more time, energy and money into this endeavor; before we build kennels and runs and all the things we SERIOUSLY need to know how much Community involvement/support in the area of working Volunteers we can count on. We CANNOT do this by ourselves, we cannot. We pastor a church in Oakhurst, full time and work part time to feed the ones we are housing now. We need you! Please comment below or DM the Shelter page if you would be willing to Volunteer to work at and in the Shelter. It doesn't have to just be cleaning kennels and feeding animals. We need intake people (Admin) who know computers, we need grant writers to fund this endeavor, we need the support of the Community of Trinity and the surrounding areas.

Thank you so much! We appreciate all of those who have already stepped up to help and support us.

This is from a nice person who found and is temporarily caring for these little ones. Unfortunately she can't keep them and needs to find forever homes for them. Here is what she says about them;
These kittens are from a feral who eats at my house. I have been taming her. She is very sweet. They are about 5-6 weeks old. She just weaned them. I will get them tame but won't be able to actually socialize them as it's just me here.
Thank you so much for helping. I will keep you updated & plan on getting them to the vet once I can handle them.
PLEASE if you are looking for a kitten to love or for barn cats please DM me and I can get you in contact with this person. Thank you for caring.

Puppies in the yard for some fresh air and sunshine! 6 weeks old and getting feisty 😁
Three that look like Catahoula Leopard Dogs, one Black Lab and four Black Mouth Cur. All from the same litter; well not the Lab someone dumped him at the McDonalds in Trinity 😪

Good morning Trinity! We are desperate to find someone to foster or adopt these two little pups. They are brother and sister who were abandoned and tied up to a mailbox at a deserted house.
They are super sweet and playful and really need a forever home. Won't you help? DM me if your interested. The ladies who saved them have older dogs and can't keep them.

05/09/2023

****UPDATE** Thank you to all that offered to foster. We currently are housing two females who both littered. Their pups are about the same age as this little man (Luckie). BOTH moms are nursing him and have accepted him. (Praise God) so what's instore for Luckie? We will keep him here for a few more weeks. We will make sure he is wormed and starts his shots. Once he is old enough we will post again for a foster or even better yet a new forever home.
Again thank you to those who responded and Luckie thanks you too!

This is Cassy. Her owners are trying to re-home her because she doesn't get along with their other dog. Cassy needs a home where she's the only dog. Miss Cassy is well trained and house broke. Dr. Reese said she's a blackmouth cur dog and she is an older gal. Cassy is up to date on all her shots but is due for a vet visit next month. Although Cassy struggles with other dogs she is great with kiddos.
Cassy needs a loving forever home to live out the rest of her doggy life. Won't you give Cassy a chance to be your forever pal? DM me if your interested, let's find Cassy her forever home. Thank you.
