The Rainy Day Fund 🌦️🌈

We’re excited to introduce the Rainy Day Fund—a special initiative to help us cover the medical expenses of the animals we rescue, especially in emergencies or unforeseen situations.

This fund is named after a brave little rescue we took in last year: Rain (affectionately known as Baby Rain). At just a few weeks old, Rain survived an animal attack that left her with facial scarring on one side. When we took her in, we believed she had healed and was ready for adoption. However, her foster mom noticed issues with her jaw, revealing that her medical challenges weren’t over.

The trauma Rain endured affected the growth of her skull, leading to unexpected expenses, including CT scans, specialist visits, and surgery to improve her bite. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we were able to provide the care she needed—care that totaled thousands of dollars.

Since Rain’s journey, we’ve welcomed many other animals with similar unanticipated medical needs. Often, we’re faced with difficult decisions about treatment based on the funds we have available and what we can raise.

That’s why we’ve created the Rainy Day Fund. Donations to this fund will go directly toward the care of animals requiring extra medical attention.

Meet Tuna Delight! 🍣💕

This adorable 13-pound, 3-year-old girl was found as a stray and brought to a shelter before making her way to us.

Tuna may be a little shy at first, but she quickly warms up and loves nothing more than pets and lap time with her people. She appears to do well with other dogs, and we’re happy to cat test her if needed!

We’ve already found the perfect cozy sweater to keep her warm this winter—all she’s missing now is a loving family to call her own.

Meet Elsa and Anna ❄️☃️

These two beautiful bonded sisters came to us after being advertised on Craigslist in terrible condition. They were reportedly living in a crate outdoors, which their previous owner claimed was for their protection after being attacked by another dog.

When they arrived, their condition broke our hearts. Their skin was swollen, scabbed, and bloody from mange, and they were also covered in fleas. But thanks to lots of love and care, their transformation has been nothing short of incredible. Today, Elsa and Anna are happy, healthy, and stunning dogs looking for their forever home.

What we don’t understand is why we haven’t received a single inquiry about them. 😢

These girls are good with both dogs and cats and absolutely adore people. Today, they experienced snow for the first time, and watching their pure joy was a reminder of how far they’ve come. The snow covered the world in beauty, helping us forget their painful past for a moment and focus on the love they are ready to give.

Elsa and Anna are full of joy, resilience, and an endless capacity to love. They are ready to share their lives with a family who will cherish them forever.

Will you be the one to give these incredible sisters the home they deserve? 💙🙏
