This is Dooks 🐶

We received a message from a temporary foster in Sugarland, Texas over a week ago about a doggie needing a rescue or he would be euthanized. We knew with the move coming up and being well over 40+ doggies in the rescue currently that we couldn’t handle anymore so we reached out to rescue partners and rescue friends. We sent pictures and the little information we had to secure him. We didn’t have any history on his medical prior to speaking with the veterinarian only pictures of him cuddling the vet techs and how sweet he was. We were not told he had any medical concerns until it was almost too late for him.

Here is where it all began!!!
Dooks was found by a Good Samaritan 11/15/24 and taken into a clinic and surrendered for emergency medical attention. It appeared he had been thrown from a vehicle or ran over. He had multiple abrasions, deep wounds; some looked like he was stabbed that required thousands of dollars in surgeries to repair. We do appreciate VEG for all their efforts in saving his life.

He was taken home by one of the veterinarians 11/26/24 on several medications for pain, anxiety, sedatives and he reacted to there smaller breed doggie and sadly she needed an emergency surgery. I spoke to the veterinarian and explained that he should not have been taken away from the clinic or around any other dogs especially in an environment he is not familiar with knowing all he had been through and all the medication he was on. All of a sudden this sweet, loving but fearful boy was labeled aggressive and they wanted to put him down immediately. They told us we had until 5pm that day to accept him in our rescue or he would be euthanized. Several other rescues had agreed to take him in until this incident that is clearly no fault of his own. The clinic took responsibility for the incident but declined any further surgeries because of his temperment after the accident. This surgery was quoted to cost over $2000 and he has no vetting done that estimates at $291. We couldn’t let him go down because of a situation he was put in that should have never occurred.

We all get comfortable sometimes and don’t believe things could go wrong but they do. We make mistakes too and accidents happen. Dogs that are fearful, in severe pain or on several medications that can cause behavioral problems should never be let loose in any home or yard around other pets or children. Slow introductions are always the way to go. When you don’t know their history or triggers, how do you expect them to act? You have to be cautious and considerate. I am human and can tell you when I have experienced pain, I can speak about it but animals can not, it’s our job to make the best judgement on their body language and reactions to make responsible decisions on their behalf.

Luckily a wonderful family agreed to foster Dooks until December 10th! We would like to get his vetting done, stitches need to be removed soon and he needs another veterinarian to review his medical. We will need to take it one day at a time. Right now he is having a lot of swelling, discomfort and a little drainage but nothing serious. The foster family is doing so well with him and they can’t believe this is the same doggie described. He is lovely, sweet and doing great in their home.

We needed to do a $5 Friday for him to raise funds for his vetting but we sometimes loose track of days and time to do these things because of the overwhelming amount of responsibilities we carry not only in rescue but we have families, kids, jobs and life too. If you can assist us towards his medical needs please we are in no position currently to take this on alone. We have thousands in vet bills we are currently trying to close out on with two clinics and we just can’t catch a break. We need some support, these are the cases where rescues need to step in but we become so full with strays, litters of dumped or neglected puppies and doggies at risk for euthanasia from overcrowding in shelters!!! We could go on and on all day long as to why but it’s the same things everyday. All the calls, messages and demands to help are some days more than we can bare.

We look forward to getting Dooks all his needs medically and ready for his furever family. We have a rescue friend on standby that could possibly assist us once we have him fully recovered but we are taking on his responsibilities.

Please consider donating today, even $1, $5, $10 goes a long way and he deserves this just as much as any of these babies do. Thank you all for your support, prayers and for every angel that has been a part of his journey that will be such a beautiful ending! God knew what path to place Dooks in and we are grateful for his favor.

Puff now “Penny” has been adopted!!! She started out on the streets of Houston Texas where she was found at a park with a litter of puppies. A rescue took in the puppies but left Puff behind. A wonderful angel stepped in to save puffs life, took responsibility for her needs and loved her back to life.

Sadly, she had to surrender her to us in March of 2024 because of some serious medical emergencies she faced with several surgeries and family matters that would have left Puff possibly facing extended time boarding or in a shelter. We had no plan for her, in fact we put out messages for a temporary foster until we had a more solid plan so she wasn’t set back any further. One of our temporary fosters in Sugarland, Texas reached out to us and said her daughter would love to foster Puff. We sent the foster application for approval, set up a meet and greet at the boarding facility where she was at and they fell in love with her and couldn’t imagine life without their Penny.

They have shared so much exciting news for their future! Penny has a baby human sister who you can tell she adores. She spends her time by her side, watching over her. They also have been offered a chance at a new career path in North Carolina and Penny has a whole new life now and is so happy and loved unconditionally. She is currently receiving some training, mostly for her separation anxiety and showing great progress.

We are truly so thankful for them stepping in and assisting us with Puff in a sure time of need. They had sadly lost their furbaby weeks prior to offering to open their home to help with Puff. She had a lot of similarities and we are so grateful to this family and their hearts in giving Puff a chance. They are such a blessing and Penny will live a long, happy and blessed life because of so many wonderful people involved in her journey.

1 Peter 5:2
Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve.

We have so much to be thankful for 🙌

Today we are grateful and blessed for each of you. The generous support towards our mission in and around the community is such a blessing.

To the wonderful families that adopt from us, our foster families who make daily sacrifices and shuffle their life schedules, the many donations to keep these babies healthy and fed, all of our amazing rescue partners that have helped us secure so many and find their furever families, sponsorships, volunteers, all of our partnered Veterinary Clinics that so graciously work with our rescues countlessly and through the financial growth of rescue. We truly appreciate you all and this would not be possible without you and The Lords guidance.

Happy Thanksgiving, Have a blessed day 🦃

Pilots N Paws organization is such a blessing to so many animals all over the world. They have helped transport many for Paws4Christ Animal Rescue and today they have lost an amazing angel who volunteers his time weekly helping animals get to other rescue groups or adoption families. One of the doggies also passed away, another has severe injuries including two broken legs and the third has not yet been found. Please take some time this evening to pray for Seuk’s family, wife, children and all his loved ones.

“May The Lord bless you and keep you; May The Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; May The Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”’ 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️

UPDATE🐾🐾🐾
Paul & his precious wife made the 13 hour drive today with the three puppers to our rescue partner in Dallas. That was a huge trip and they are on the way back now. We can not tell you how much of a blessing both of them are. They are truly angels on earth and we are forever grateful for the many act of kindness they have done. We appreciate the church who kept them together and secured. They donated two small doggie houses and funds to purchase a larger one. We were able to donate one of our personal doggies larger dog houses and two 44 pound bags of dogfood. Thank you Deez Dogs for vaccinating them while they were in the churches care. We also want to thank you all for your support, prayers and sharing our posts to help these babies get to safety so they have an opportunity to find a furever family. It takes a village 🙏🏻 Thank you Jesus for always making a way 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️

It looks like we will have to drive them to Dallas on Thanksgiving day when I’m off work. We need funds for fuel this is a 13 hours trip and we need three doggie houses. If you have any used ones to donate or would like to sponsor one we can take in the truck please, please message us. We do not have the funding to do this! Paul Putnam and his kind family did pick up the puppies last week from the Church in El Campo, Texas to hold them while we work on a plan to transport them and they can’t go without having the dog houses secured and help with fuel. This is where we hit road blocks in rescue and desperately need your help. If you can give a little to help these babies we will get them there safely. We can donate one of our personal doggies houses as well. The last thing we want to do is spend Thanksgiving away from our family transporting them, but that is the day I am off work and it seems that this is the route we will have to go to get them there with what is needed for them to be able to accept them. Thank you all for your support, have a blessed day.

Tigger now “Jinx” was adopted a few weeks ago PetSmart and is doing great. She is most definitely loved unconditionally like every furbaby should be. I have to say, if I were a cat, I would be blessed to have them as my Pawrents.

We have Karen Villarreal to be thankful for saving this babies life! She adopted a doggie Miss Daisy 🌼 from us over a year ago in Mission, Texas and when she saw this sick kitty at a gas station back in June she couldn’t leave her there. Karen fostered and cared for Tigger for two months. When her family was making a trip to Florida they drove right through Victoria, Texas and dropped tigger off with us in August. We can not express the appreciation we have for this sweet family doing all of this to help us save another kitty.

Our daughter helped to foster her through the summer and acclimate her to the environment with other kitties while spoiling her to pieces 💞

We know fostering takes a lot of time, patience and commitment! We want to thank each one of our fosters for pouring into them, rearranging your schedules, lives and doing the very best for every doggie and kitty you have helped us with. God knows you are all angels on earth and we could not do it without your help.

Thank you all for liking and sharing our posts! With the amazing support in and around the community we are all making a difference together and changing the lives for so many furbabies. We are thankful for each of you and your kindness that doesn’t go unnoticed. God Bless you and we hope you have a wonderful Sunday .

🐾🐾🐾 $5 Friday 🐾🐾🐾

Here are some updated pictures of the indoor kennel 🐶🐾🐶🐾🐶🐾

We still need some work done to it inside and outside. Today we are asking for donations towards the building. This will be a huge blessing in the community for doggies & kitty cats!

Our new place will have two extra large rooms for fosters to have more space. We like to work with them in a home environments to ensure no behavioral issues are present that would prevent them from being adopted or returned to us for something we could have prevented. It give us an opportunity to see them at their fullest so we are able to match them with the right furever family. We have 16 cats in the rescue as well that will have an indoor playroom.

The indoor kennel is a great start and can always be added to in the future as we grow. The AC/Heat was installed incorrectly and will need to be placed higher but will work that out.

We appreciate you all so much for your support and prayers to seeing this happen. We look forward to working more in and around the community together.

Have a wonderful weekend, God Bless!!!

Update🐾
Plane is having some mechanical problems this morning that will need repairs and to get it inspected before they can put it back up in the air so it could be days before he can fly them. We are trying to work on a temporary hold for them. In the meantime if anyone is going to Dallas between now and next week, please let us know if you can help transport those three puppies. (PICS IN COMMENTS)

We got a call this evening about a momma and her three pups that have been at a church in El Campo, Texas for several months. They are giving them food & water daily but today the momma is having a surprise litter!!!!!!! She has been taken in by another rescue with the new litter leaving these three by themselves outside and cooler temps are coming…..😭

One of our sweet rescue partners near Dallas, Texas has a pen opening and can help if dog houses can be provided for them. We have contacted a private pilot that works miracles all over Texas/Louisiana and he is actually flying tomorrow 👼 Wayne Wickline can absolutely stop by Victoria Airport, pick them up and fly them to Dallas but would not be able to fit dog houses on his plane and the doggies.

Almost everything is last minute in rescue and today my heart breaks for these babies out there scared and alone 😟 To know it’s been months of them like this and how they did not choose to have this life is so unfair and unjust!!!

If we can get three doghouses, God has already made a very clear path for their future, he just needs help from some angels 😇

Here is the link for the most kindhearted pilot I have ePeppy Pet Rescuecan please send him a donation!!! $1, $5 or $25 helps, no amount is too small. He does this all out of pocket and relies on donations to do this. He has helped us many times and it seems like it’s the very last minute and he never says no! He is a tCuero Animal Controllped Victoria County Animal Servicesrible situations similar to this one.

Echo has been fully vetted and had his damaged eye removed over the month and now is at Adopt-A-Pet in Victoria, Texas getting a mass removed called a histiocytoma. They did a cytology as well and all looks good. A histiocytoma is a tumor that forms when histiocytes, a type of immune cell grows.

If you would like to donate towards his medical care we can post the information below. He has a family interested in meeting him soon and we are praying over his future and healing.

As always we appreciate any support to continue the care for these precious babies. God Bless 🙏🏻🐾🫶🐶💞

$2 Twosday 🐈🐈🐈

Last week we received several messages about a sick kitty at a convenience store in Victoria, Texas and because of a sweet foster family we were able to help. He has been dewormed, given antibiotics and eye drops. He isn’t well enough to be fully vetted for another week or two but we would like to raise funds to help him get through this and schedule an appointment when he is well enough for his neuter and vaccines. We have so many long time kittens and cats that are fully vetted, house & litter box trained but sadly feline adoptions are not as often as the amount we have taken in. We definitely are in need of cat food, flea meds, cat litter and litter boxes. Please see our lists below to support these furkids needs. Thank you all, have a wonderful day 👼🐈😻🐾
