Good Morning,

We have until noon today to raise $322 to keep Snow-Whites surgery appointment for tomorrow or we will have to push it out a few days more. After being hit by a vehicle in Bloomington, Texas she was left in a ditch with her leg and the injured side of her body three times the size of her right side leaving her hip completely out of place and the ball broken between her hip and leg with shattered bone fragments loose causing her pain and discomfort. She is not taking interest in her food or water since late yesterday evening or wanting to get up and move around much. We are contacting the vet today because we are not sure if the pain medication needs to be increased thinking that she may have built up a tolerance to it and needs some adjustments to help her have more relief. She has been having normal bowel movements and urinating fine so we don’t believe there is an issue in that area but we are adding medication to make sure it’s not her tummy upset to rule out anything possibly going on. We have been monitoring her temperature several times a day and she is on antibiotics, so we don’t believe there is an infection. Today we are asking for prayers for Snowie and that you please share or donate if you can. We appreciate you all for your generous support in the many ways you have helped us continue with Snow-Whites needs so we can get this baby girl on the road to recovering. She is very sweet, loving and truly a wonderful pup with such a gentle heart considering all she is going through is just amazing.

We will update more as we have information to share. You are welcome to call in donations directly to the clinic or to one of our links below. Thank you all, have a blessed day!

Update:1/15/25 We are so close to Snow-Whits goal! We need to raise $347 more in donations to keep her surgery appointment for this Friday. Please share 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thank you 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️

‼️ $2 Tuesday ‼️We are asking for help to keep this surgery appointment. Snow-White was hit by a vehicle in Bloomington, Texas and left in a ditch to die. We still need to raise almost $500 towards Snow-Whites surgery. She can have surgery done this Friday January 17th if we have enough funds to cover it. Her hip is completely out of place, the ball that sits in the socket between her hip and leg is broken and all the shattered bone fragments will need to be removed. The medication has brought the swelling down tremendously but she still is having trouble walking but for no more than a few minutes to move around a bit. She is able to potty but it takes her sometime because of the discomfort and you can see it’s frustrating to her. She has such great spirits otherwise, a very sweet girl but definitely in pain and quite uncomfortable. You’re welcome to call in donations directly to Main Street Animal Hospital ☎️ 361-578-4854 or stop by at 2306 North Main Street in Victoria, Texas. If the surgery isn’t too long they can also spay her but with anesthesia that comes with risks and we don’t want to take a chance if the doctor feels it can wait until she recovers from the surgery. We will update more soon. Thank you, have a blessed day!

Update: Bo & Dukes 🐶🐶🐶

They are doing great in their foster home. These sweet bonded brothers spent over a year with Victoria County Animal Services after they were surrendered by their owners. They were adopted and returned, facing multiple possibilities of being euthanized! We knew without a plan we couldn’t pull them but with the deadline approaching we did not want to take a chance and couldn’t bare to let them be killed. We rescued them from euthanasia August of 2024 and they spent time with us most weekends and indoor boarding weekly. We got to see them nearly everyday, several times a day. We took them on long walks and spent time with them together. They were so sad and confused everytime we had to leave them and it broke our hearts. They are such well behaved, wonderful boys who deserve a loving home and we know there is a family out there just for them. They like to run and play, get along with other doggies, kids and enjoy sunny days in the water. They are both crate trained, housebroken and a joy to be around. Their foster momma spoils and loves them so much. They play dress up and get to truly feel what it’s like to be a part of a family that loves them like their own. We couldn’t do this without fosters committed to helping us with our mission. We know when these boys find their furever family, they will not be easy to let go. Everytime we have an adoption, it opens up opportunities to help more of these babies and it’s such a blessing to have amazing fosters work together with us respectfully, responibly and as a huge part of our rescue doing more than what’s expected to be sure they thrive in their new homes and experience how life should be for them before being adopted. We love these boys so much, they are truly special and we appreciate Heather Norris for stepping in weeks before Christmas and fostering Bo & Duke. Her family has fostered many wonderful doggies who have been adopted into great homes and we owe a huge thanks to them. We love you’ll and appreciate everything you do 💝🥰🐶🐾🫶

Update: We have a foster not available until the weekend if anyone can temp help until Sunday afternoon please message us.

Update:1/15/25 We are so close to Snow-Whits goal! We need to raise $347 more in donations to keep her surgery appointment for this Friday. Please share 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thank you 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️

Update: Snow-White
After being struck by a vehicle a little over a week ago and left in a ditch a family took her in and needed our help. We were thankfully able to have her seen because so many amazing angels helped with donations. We can’t thank you enough for your generous hearts 💝🙏🏻

She will need surgery, our goal for the appointment was to get her exam, x-rays, pain medications and vaccines so we can form a plan. We have gotten three estimates on this surgery and the range is $850-$1100. Main Street Animal Hospital would like us to keep her on the pain/inflammation medication for two weeks to get the swelling down and pain under control before scheduling the surgery so that gives us time to raise the funds needed to do this. We have listed information below to help you understand what they will perform. Main Street Animal Hospital said either way she will always favor that leg but the shattered fragments from the break in the ball joint with hip dislocation will cause issues down the road if we don’t address it now. She is having a hard time walking today, just enough to go potty and turn in a circle slowly.

If a dog's back leg has a shattered socket between the hip and leg, a surgeon may perform a femoral head osteotomy (FHO) to remove the femoral head (ball) of the hip:

Procedure
The surgeon removes the femoral head, leaving the acetabulum empty. The dog's leg muscles initially hold the femur in place, but scar tissue develops between the femur and acetabulum, forming a "false joint". This false joint acts as a cushion and allows the dog to regain nearly normal use of the leg.

Recovery
Dogs usually heal within a month after FHO surgery. The typical recovery period is six weeks.

Candidates
Dogs that weigh less than 50 pounds are good candidates for FHO surgery because the false joint can more easily support the body.

Cost
FHO surgery we were quoted $850-$1100

If you can help towards this surgery she will be recovering with Paws4Christ Animal Rescue so we can monitor and care for her around the clock. We can not schedule surgery without raising funds first! The best way to receive donations is to call them into the veterinary clinic directly or one of our pay links. If we use Facebook pay it typically take 30-45 days to receive the donations and we do not want to have an open bill because we use two other clinics in town that we are trying to catch up on with personal funds. We can list the vet clinic information and pay links below if you can please help us reach the estimated goal needed to schedule this surgery within the next two weeks. If you have any questions, please message us. If you have a quiet, calm home and can help temporarily foster Snow during her healing process we are open to it but want to be sure she will have plenty of space, rest and comfort needed to heal. Also p*e pads, dogfood and pill pockets are appreciated if you can check out our lists below. Thank you all for your support & prayers.

Look at Chandler now Barrett from Christmas 2023 to Christmas 2024!!! He was abandoned in Victoria, Texas with his siblings and mom at just a few weeks old. We have already posted his adoption last year but we love to share updates from these precious families. We stay in contact with them and probably drive some of you a little crazy with update inquiries lol but we truly appreciate you taking the time to communicate with us, sending pictures, videos and sharing how amazing they are doing.

Barrett is very happy, playful and looooves his belly rubs. He has a new human sibling that he does so good with, he is patient and calm around the baby. Barrett enjoys playing in the water and being right by his family’s side. He gets to go on many adventures and is loved beyond words. God Bless this beautiful family and Barrett’s future.

We are so blessed to have such amazing families adopt with us! Little Scooter is growing so fast!!! She came from another litter out of Bloomington, Texas October 2024. She was not in the best conditions when we took them in but look at how great she is doing. She is a little princess who loves to dress up in cute outfits, plays hard but can’t wait for nap time so she can have her binkey and cuddle her fam! Scooter is such a happy and sweet pup, so loved and full of life. Her new Pawrents absolutely adore her. Scooter is deaf but that doesn’t mean they love her any less. She will have the bestest life with her wonderful new family. We definitely will miss your silly personality, cuddles and watching you play tough with your siblings. Have a beautiful life baby girl 🫶🙏🏻🐶🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🐾💝

Urgent foster or rescue needed!!!

Hi! There are 2 black lab mixes that are 1 1/2 years old. They have no vetting. The owner is willing to get them fixed before rehoming if needed.

EDIT: I talked to the owner and she said that when off their chains, they do not fight. The only fighting happens when one gets in the other’s circle when they’re chained up. They aren’t actively seeking out fights with the other though. When they’re both on leashes out walking, they are fine together usually.

Their entire life has been spent on a chain. The one with all black on the paws is not a fan of other dogs but the one with white on the paws is okay with others. Both dogs are good with humans. They’re puppies so they rough play with cats, but have never hurt one. She is in the process of moving and cannot take them with her. With the freeze and her moving, they don’t have very many options left.

Please if you know anyone that can help, reach out to 361-703-9065. Share and let’s find these babies a warm and safe place to live.

This is an urgent plea 🚨🚨🚨

Miss Sophie needs a foster home, adoption family or rescue partner to step in and help. She was taken in by a family months ago because she was going to be euthanized by her owners. I’m sure they got a new, cute little puppy and no longer wanted Sophie around. The family who saved her reached out to us for help and we offered to assist in rehoming and we do believe God has a family chosen for Sophie in his timing. The family can no longer hold her and will have to take her to BARC in Houston, Texas that is a high kill shelter, where she will be euthanized immediately as a surrender. We can take her when we move but we have had some setbacks and currently working on other avenues. If you can help with Sophie, please message us before her time is up. We will share her bio below and videos in the comments. Please share so Sophie has another chance of escaping euthanasia!!!

“Hi, I’m Sophie! I am currently looking for a new family after my old one took me to the veterinary clinic to have me euthanized because they were moving and couldn’t take me with them. I was always so good for them so I don’t know why they didn’t want me. Luckily God had greater plans for my life when he sent a kind family to save me. They knew right away I was so grateful to them the moment they looked in my eyes.

Enough about my past, let me share with you a little bit about me and how amazing I truly am.

I am an affectionate and gentle girl, who enjoys playing with other doggies and going for a swim especially on a sunny day. It makes me the happiest to be around people and I’m a great companion. For a three year old, I am well-behaved, I walk great on a leash and I have good manners. I do good inside the house and my favorite time of day is bedtime because I get to cuddle in bed with my people. At 45 pounds, I am healthy and the Doc cleared me medically after he updated my vetting. I would like to have other fur-siblings to spend my days with and a loving family that won’t ever give up on me. I cannot wait to find my forever home and share my love with my new family! Please contact Paws4Christ Animal Rescue to set up a meet & greet so you can see just how sweet I am yourself. Hope to see you, paws crossed very soon 🐾🐶🙏🏻

Thank you CH Boxer Rescue for taking in sweet Bridget! You’ll have helped us in and around the community in so many emergency situations and we can’t thank you enough. This baby was at the Community Center for several weeks when we were contacted to help. After several days of searching drainage ditches she had been hiding in, yesterday a group of amazing volunteers got her from a tunnel about 15 feet underground. She was driven almost five hours by the sweetest family to a foster with Chi Boxer Rescue, Melissa BoxerRescue. We appreciate you all so much for your assistance in getting this baby to safety. God Bless you all!!! We can’t wait to see her smiling and enjoying life like she deserves 🙏🏻🫶🐾🦴🐶🥰

🐶🐶🐶 REESE SAYS;
“Why are all those other doggies getting forever homes and not me? I mean, I love my foster home, they treat me grand…But I want my forever family too!!! Please guys, choose ME! I am such a loving girl 💔 Just because I was thrown out by my owners at the landfill where people dump their trash; doesn’t mean I am a bad girl, I deserve to have a good life and loving family too.

Reese is a very sweet, goofy, friendly, and always happy pup! She enjoys meeting new people, doggies big & small and kids too. She takes interest in chasing cats so we don’t feel like a home with kitties is a good idea. She is truly a social butterfly, so affectionate and likes to lean against you, soak up the attention and just hang out. She loves, loves her chew toys and stuffies but prefers not to share them. She is currently fostered in a home with several other doggies so having fur-siblings would make her so happy.

Reese is about 45 pounds, fully vetted, microchipped, house and crate trained, she is a quick learner and doing pretty good on a leash. If she gets a bit excited she corrects easily and is very polite. She knows some basic commands like sit & stay but is eager to learn with treats!

Reese always walks around with a wiggly butt, full of smiles and tail wags. She will come up to you and lay down on her back with paws in the air for tummy rubs. Reese would love to be in a home with a family that is active and would like to take her places. She appreciates a secured yard and toys for playtime to get her puppy energy out. Reese has a lot of love to give!!! Contact us to meet her so you can see for yourself.

Our hearts are saddened to share with you all that we will not be moving forward with this purchase on the property and home. So many things have been mishandled. This will set us back months and take time for us to recover. We are still unsure about keeping the kennel because it is supposed to be here next week and we will not have a place to put it. There is a 35% restocking fee of almost $13,000 and we have already paid over $3500 for it, this would be half of what that building is worth to send it back is going to be a hard call, but we are limited to what we can do with how everything has turned out. This changes a lot for the rescues future, yes it’s temporary because we know Our God, we trust him and we know he will make a way and it will be a true blessing from above. We are in complete peace with this knowing all the hard work, time and money we have put in is a sad loss but we don’t base our efforts upon worldly possessions, we will continue to be good stewards and do what is right. This rejection could be Gods protection and we believe he has a greater plan for our future, lives and the rescue. We are not discouraged, greed will not overcome us, we are humble and patient trusting Gods will. Setbacks are not the end; they are a divine setup for the comebacks God has already planned for us. By trusting in His timing, persevering through challenges, and fixing our eyes on His promises, we can rise from any fall stronger, more faithful, and ready to embrace the future He has prepared.

Psalms 112:7
He will not fear bad new; his heart is confident, trusting in the Lord.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.

Pup is spotted!!! Several are out there trying to catch her but she is skiddish 😞🙏🏻

Update: 1/4/25
She was spotted today but by the time we got there she was gone!!! Please share so we can find this pup 🙏🏻

We received a message and call yesterday about this doggie that has been hanging out at the community center sports plex in Victoria, Texas between the skate park and pickleball courts for about two weeks now. She’s super sweet and gentle, looks to of had a litter and dumped possibly! She has fleas pretty bad so they put a flea collar on her. She is just really sad and weak. We need to find her before the cold and rain hits in a few days. We were told she goes under the bridge or in the culverts. We went out lastnight and this morning checking everyone of those culverts/drainage ditches all the way down on both sides and she is no where to be seen. They said every morning they are out there during the week playing pickleball and she comes up for food. They didn’t call animal control because they were afraid she would be euthanized but I know they would at least scan and stray hold had they known. We did check with VCAS to see if she was picked up but they do not believe she has been. We will check on Monday to be sure but we need help finding her, if your in the area and go by please contact us so we can get her. We have a rescue partner with a foster on standby ready to assist. Thank you, God Bless 🙏🏻🐶🐾

Look at sweet, baby Kane!!! He was found roaming Victoria, Texas in early 2024 and a family took him in thinking he was a smaller breed. Their Veterinarian told them he was a Pit Bull and a dangerous breed, that he would probably get bigger and knock them down, bite or attack their smaller Schnauzer. So Kane couldn’t stay there anymore and we had no space to take him in but once we found out he was being kept in a crate out in the garage during the summer heat for weeks, we went right over and worked on a plan. He was very calm, sad, tired and his body temps were extremely high but he cooled down after several hours and just wanted cuddles. After a home visit and his vetting, Kane now has a family that knows his breed and loves him even more for it 💝 He has fursiblings that he spends his days playing, running and jumping around with! Kane absolutely enjoys curling up for naps or on dad’s lap. He is doing so well and we are so grateful to God for placing Kane in our path and blessing him with a wonderful family.
