DECEASED

Tonight, as our grandchild was riding around in the field, he found a lamb that was not moving, but breathing heavily. He stopped to check it out, and then immediately brought her home to his mom very concerned. The call came in and we immediately headed over.

IVF, cooling towels, rehydrated with glucose and electrolytes. My grandson went looking for the owners, and could not find them. We tried to call a few vets. Not sure if she’ll make it because her gums are really pale. At the end of all the fluids and electrolytes she did hold her head up for a brief minute. Hopefully she’ll be OK, but her gums were pretty pale. No injuries seen. Prayers for the little lamb

In case anybody recognizes the tag, we’d appreciate if you could share this, and try and find the owners. The lamb is fine for tonight. It is in a dog kennel so nothing can get to it. It has electrolyte water and grain in the pen with it.

Last night’s Rescue was heartbreaking - we saved it from being attacked by a predator because it had no chance of flying away.

Broken wing and all, we took it straight to Sandra Foreman’s home (wildlife director) house last night at about 830, she was able to euthanize it and put it out of its misery. That’s not an easy job, but she knew that this three month old Hawk was hurting, and there was no cure.

Special thanks to Byrdette and Eric Frizzie for identifying and calling us to help!!

Thank you for always taking action to help the animals - Byrdette Frizzie and Eric Frizzie

Oh, Carol, here you are roasted

You’re a nurse, a dog rescuer, the daughter of a boxer, raised with four brothers, the only girl, mother of an only daughter, and now married to Leon.

Basically, your entire life has been one long training program for dealing with creatures who don’t listen, make terrible decisions, occasionally bite, and somehow expect you to clean up the mess.

Your dad was a boxer, so conflict resolution probably started with, “We can talk about this… but choose your next sentence carefully.”

Then your parents gave you FOUR BROTHERS. Four. You weren’t raised—you were battle-tested. By the time nursing school came around, you probably thought, “Wait… people are going to yell, bleed, complain, ignore my instructions AND I get paid? Sign me up.”

Then you became a dog rescuer, because apparently nursing didn’t provide enough emergencies, bodily fluids, irrational behavior, or individuals refusing to take their medication.

And somehow you run Wilton Animal Rescue, which means every time somebody within a 50-mile radius finds a dog, loses a dog, sees a dog, hears a dog, or has a cousin whose neighbor might need help with a dog, your phone probably rings.

You have one daughter because after growing up with four brothers you clearly understood the importance of population control.

And then there’s Leon.

That man didn’t just marry a woman. He married a nurse/rescue director/boxer’s daughter/four-brother survivor who has spent her entire life developing the ability to detect bu****it before the person telling it has finished the sentence.

Leon probably doesn’t win arguments.

He just reaches the point where he realizes continuing is medically inadvisable.

You don’t have a “fight or flight” response.

You have a “Fine. I’ll handle it myself” response.

And somewhere out there is a stray dog who has absolutely no idea that the second you hear about him, his ass is getting trapped, vaccinated, neutered, photographed, given a dramatic Facebook biography, and placed with a family whether he planned on participating or not.

Carol, you’re not intimidating because you’re mean.

You’re intimidating because you’ve spent your entire life surrounded by chaos and apparently decided:

“You know what this situation needs? Me in charge.” 😂🔥

🐾💙 MEET JOEY — STILL WAITING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME! 💙🐾

Little Joey is about 9 months old, and somehow this sweet boy is still waiting for his person. 🥺

His momma, Kettle, and his siblings have all found their forever homes… but Joey is still here, patiently waiting for someone to realize just how special he is. ❤️

Joey is a total people dog. His foster says he wants to be right beside his person no matter what’s happening around him. Even at the dog park, where there are plenty of other dogs to play with, Joey would rather stick close to his human. 🥰

His foster describes him perfectly:

✨ He learns quickly
✨ He’s incredibly devoted to his person
✨ He loves being your little shadow
✨ He is doing great with potty training- He just needs someone who pays attention to his cues and keeps him on a consistent routine

Joey is still learning how to tell his person that he needs to go outside, so a consistent adopter who takes him out every few hours and pays attention to his behavior will be important. When he starts running around like a little maniac, that can be his way of saying, “Hey! I gotta go!” 😂

One thing potential adopters should know: car rides make Joey anxious. He will need someone patient who is willing to help him build confidence with traveling and make car rides a positive experience.

What Joey really wants is simple: his person. ❤️
Someone who wants a loyal little shadow, will give him consistency, patience, and lots of love, and will let him become the best little dog he can be.

His family has moved on to their forever homes. Now it’s Joey’s turn. 🥹🐾

🏡 JOEY IS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!

Could you be the person he’s been waiting for? ❤️
