As we turn the final page on 2024, we’re thrilled to share our last adoption story of the year. Duncan, now Milton, has found his forever home with a wonderful couple in Asheville, NC. From the very first moment they met, it was clear—this was love. They’ve embraced his puppy energy, his bright spirit, and his endless potential. Milton isn’t just in a home; he’s where he belongs.

But Milton’s story is just one of many beautiful chapters written this year. Each pup who found safety, love, and family represents a victory made possible by a village.

To our fosters who offered shelter, our adopters who gave forever love, our photographers who captured hope in every portrait, our transporters who ensured safe journeys, our vet partners who offered healing, and our volunteers who gave their time, energy, and hearts—you are the reason stories like Milton’s exist.

Rescue is not just about saving dogs; it’s about restoring hope and building bridges between broken pasts and bright futures.

As we step into 2025, we carry with us gratitude for every life saved and hope for the countless lives still waiting.

May the new year bring you joy, love, and moments that remind you of life’s beauty. And if your heart feels called, we welcome you to join us: Foster. Adopt. Volunteer. Donate. Together, we can write even more happy endings.

Here’s to a fresh start, wagging tails, and love without limits. HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🐕❤️

Sometimes a dog comes into your life at just the right time, slipping into the cracks without you even realizing it. They don’t announce themselves as saviors or miracles—they’re simply there, slowly weaving their way into your routine, your thoughts, your feelings, and your heart. You don’t see it then, but they’re quietly pulling you out of places you thought you’d never escape.

It’s only years later, when you’re looking back, that the clarity hits you. You remember the nights when the world felt too heavy, and they sat beside you—steady and unshaken—keeping you tethered. You see how they filled your days with the kind of simple, unfiltered joy you had long forgotten existed. They didn’t fix everything, but they gave you a reason to keep going—and sometimes, that’s enough. Sometimes, that’s all you need.

And maybe that’s the beauty of it. They don’t try to save you; they just do. In their own gentle way, they become the thing you didn’t know you needed. And long after they’re gone, you realize it wasn’t just luck that they came when they did—it was love, pure and profound, walking into your life when you needed it most. Walking into your life and changing it, as if it was meant to mend and heal everything.

Dogs come into our lives to teach us about love.
They depart to teach us about loss.
A new dog never replaces an old dog, it merely expands the heart...

🎶 Here’s the story of some pups named Brady,
With floppy ears, big paws, and giant hearts.
They’re a mix of Saint Bernard and hound-y others,
And they’re looking for a home where love can start! 🎶

🎶 They’re roly-poly, playful, and so loving,
With wagging tails and paws that never stop.
Always curious, eager to be with you,
They’ll follow you around with every hop! 🎶

🎶 Now they’re waiting for their perfect families,
Who will love them and give them lots of hugs.
Excited to share their love and cuddles,
They’re sure to fill your home with joy and snuggs! 🎶

The goal of Compassion Pet Care has always been to benefit our local community in the best way possible. We are excited to announce that after much thought, research, and collaboration with new partners, CPC will be transitioning to a much needed spay/neuter clinic. CPC will continue to serve current clients who have long term or chronic illnesses such as cancer or diabetes. We cannot make specific recommendations, but the Tuscaloosa area has many veterinarians who can provide quality, routine care for pets.
Beginning November 4, CPC will offer appointments Tuesday, Thursdays, and Fridays, 8:00 a.m. till 5:30 p.m. However, the front desk will still be available for information and appointments Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. till 5:30 p.m. Boarding services will continue as normal.
Please visit www.CanineCompassionFund.org for more information or call Compassion Pet Care at 205.409.6150. CCF and CPC pages will also provide detailed information.
Thank you for your past and continued support as we move forward in bringing low cost spay/neuter services to west Alabama!
