WHO YOU GOT? It's a house divided over here. Rooney (a Fox Red Lab) wants the Chiefs. Duh. And Marley, well, he's rooting for Fritos and cheese dip. 🤣

Here's this week's Monday Mention: Our friends at Lucky Farms Animal Rescue are desperately seeking fosters. If you love BIG PUPS and live in one of the many states listed in the post, please consider giving an LFAR dog a soft place to land while they look for their forever home. Reach out to them directly for more information: [email protected].

🚨🚨Foster or foster to adopt families needed to help save shelter dogs’ lives and keep dogs from going to shelter🚨🚨

These 5 Great Danes and 1 Saint Bernard need our help!! They are just a few of the many requests we have had to help!!

Every shelter and rescue we know is overwhelmed. We are struggling to find qualified foster homes which we need in order to be able to help more dogs.

We receive multiple surrender requests daily. We receive multiple shelter requests daily. We are forced daily to turning away dogs in need because we have no foster homes for them.

We currently are open to qualified foster families in TN GA AL MO MS KY OH IN IL SC NC VA WV MD DE PA and can provide transport to these states. Please understand we are not open to other states due to not having the resources there nor the volunteers to transport to that state.

We provide for all of the dog’s financial needs. You provide the love and understanding ❤️ with guidance from our experienced volunteers.

We do have high standards for our fosters as we do want to provide our dogs with better than the poor circumstances many come from. So all pets in home must have history of standard vaccines (rabies and dhpp/ we will accept titer testing) and heartworm prevention (for dogs). All pets must be altered (spayed/neutered) unless medically ill advised or too young to safely alter.

If you can provide a loving temporary (or permanent) spot on your couch for a giant breed dog in need, please email us at [email protected]

I've got a "Wellness Wednesday" post for you from Dr Smith of Natchez Trace Veterinary Services. I had the opportunity to get his opinion on some things and the first one we tackled was CICADAS. They might be hindering your training a bit but, as we learn here, they won't harm your dogs as long as they don't eat buckets of them. 😉

This is lovely. Two businesses that I have used personally and refer to regularly are Natchez Trace Veterinary Services and Southern Paws Pet Sitting/Daily Dog Walking. It's so nice to have a community of pet professionals that support and root each other on. I recently sat down with Dr Smith to record some informative videos for sharing with the public. Keep an eye out as I post the highlights of our conversation. Thank you, Kathy Lee Jarrell and Dr Smith for your trust and support! ❤️
