As many of you know, I have been an independent rescuer for 10 years. I have worked endlessly to place every dog that has come into my care in the perfect home and have had so many success stories, which I 150 percent owe to the networkers, rescues, fosters, and adopters who have loved these babies just like they were their own. None of these adoptions would be possible without all of you.
The past year has been a difficult one. I began helping a networker who I realized just a little too late, was more about her numbers (clearing the EU list) than she was about the care and quality of life of the dogs after leaving the shelter. The rescues she worked with continued to pull despite having over 500 plus dogs between them within a 6-7 month period (I will discuss this more in another post). The minute I realized how bad it was, I tried to put an end to it and fix the situation- I was met with lies and denial.. and more pulling. Since then myself and several other rescuer have worked tirelessly to fight for these animals who were abandoned by 2 rescues, who have left fosters without help, dogs without medical (many with heartworm), boarding facilities 10k+ unpaid, homeboarders in debt and with zero help… the list goes on.
That brings me to my situation. In this process, I took on 5 dogs to help these rescues. I quickly realized they didn’t not care about the dogs left in my care and I made the decision, after weeks of being their safe place, that I wouldn’t return them to the rescues, despite the financial situation they had imposed on me. I would not let them end up in boarding like so many others, trapped for months on end without a single post to get them to a forever home.
Since then,two have been adopted, but I still have three left. Chex, Queen, and Chance. Chance and Chex in particular have set me back tremendously, as they both had severe skin issues and Chance needed to be neutered. They are all on flea and tick meds and have the proheart shot.
Because I don’t want this particular networker harassing my vets, I will be happy to show anyone who is interested, their medical bills, but for now I will just show pictures of what they used to look like and the issues they still continue to have…
I am hoping some of you will be willing to donate to their care, as I cannot continue without financial assistance. It’s just not possible.
Thank you so much!!! I promise to be transparent about the money raised and will be placing the amount at the bottom! Thank you!
