I get comments about the kennel pictures and videos I take of the puppies I have currently looking for homes all the time.

Let me clear the air. These puppies are so joyful and playful that good pictures is almost impossible unless I stick them into the kennel.

They just want to run, play, jump, chew on my hair, and be the healthy, happy puppies that they are.

They do not live in that kennel. They only spent maybe 30 minutes max in that kennel while I clean and sanitize the pen. They don’t even get a chance to go potty in the kennel with the short amount of time they are in it.

Kennel pictures are the easiest way for me to take pictures by myself with my camera on my phone being broken. Plus it gives the puppy a little bit of kennel time.

Please be understanding, for many of you haven’t ever seen how difficult it is to get all those puppies into the kennel.

They have a clean pen with shelter, food, water and toys. Bleached and lightly dusted with Diatomaceous Earth.

The struggle is real and I need a cameraman.. 🤦‍♀️ taking applications 🤣

These fur babies are looking for families to spoil them.

1 Male black Heeler/Husky mixed male that is very calm and quiet.

3 Black females that I was told were Husky/Heeler mixes but I believe they have Boxer

5 smaller mixed puppies that have a few breeds in them from Heeler, Husky, Chihuahua and even Mexican Hairless dog. Someone who already picked a puppy did an Embark.

All these puppies are 3-4 months old.
All mixed breeds, I just pass along the breeds I’ve been told about, I never saw the parents.

Rehoming fee applies, delivery is available for a fee.

Not a 501c3, self-funded.

This girl is Molly who found a home through the ranch after I got a call about 13 puppies in a overheated dog house.

Very interesting to see what her DNA came back with from .

I was told the dad might have been a Border Collie but the Portuguese Water Dog explains the black coat. Very interesting and always educational.

DNA pulled on another puppy.
So many interesting breeds.

I love getting updated information on puppies. Especially pictures and even DNA results.

I wouldn’t have ever guess those puppies had Xoloitzcuintle. So neat!

I do have siblings to this puppy if anyone is interested. They are so kinda and loving. The puppy that was DNA tested is doing great with his family and sibling from Phoenix, both found homes through RTR 🙂

Hey everyone!!

I know many people in Arizona have heard about the Tunnel Fire in Flagstaff. Many animals have been evacuated to Coconino Humane.

To help Coconino Humane Association with the evacuated pets, I am donating any money collected off the puppies I have looking for homes directly to them.

I have several healthy and loving puppies off the Navajo Reservation that need homes. I feel like it’s only right to donate the money towards the animals who lost the only thing they knew, which is home.

Please message me for information.

Delivery is an option after highway 89 reopens hopefully sometime this weekend.

My friend who delivers puppies for the ranch was evacuated and because of the highway being closer she isn’t allowed to leave until further notice.

Donations to Coconino Humane Association can be made directly on the website posted below.

What in the actual 🤬

This makes me SICK.

Brooklyn Beck…… I am so very disappointed in you to allow this to happen. I thought you were better then this….

ANIMAL CRUELTY- GOLDEN VALLEY

Mohave County Sheriff’s Office Deputies arrested Michael Patrick Turland, 43 of Golden Valley, for 94 counts of felony Animal Cruelty. On April 3, 2022, Deputies were called to a residence in the 3400 block of N. Kaba Rd. in reference to an animal welfare check. The reporting party advised that multiple dead animals had been located inside a freezer in the garage and she believed some of them had belonged to her. Upon arrival, the reporting party advised that she resides in Phoenix and that an agreement had been reached between herself and Turland for him to take possession of her snakes and breed them, then return them to her.

After a few months she was not able to reach Turland to get her snakes back. The reporting party further advised that she was contacted by the property owner, who advised that Turland and his wife, identified as Brooklyn Beck, had moved out of state and when they were cleaning the property, located the freezer full of dead animals in the garage.

Deputies and Animal Control Officers entered the property and located the freezer, which contained approximately 183 frozen animals of different breeds. Officers located dogs, turtles, lizards, birds, snakes, mice, rats, and rabbits. Several of the animals appeared to have been frozen alive due to their body positioning. Deputies attempted to make contact with Turland and his wife by phone, with no response.

On Wednesday (4/13) at 9:30 AM, deputies were notified that Turland was at the residence. Deputies and Animal Control Officers responded to the residence and Turland was taken into custody without incident. When interviewed, Turland eventually admitted to placing some of the animals in the freezer when they were still alive. Michael Patrick Turland was transported to the Mohave County Adult Detention Facility in Kingman.

Deputies are also looking to make contact with Brooklyn Beck for questioning in regards to this incident. This investigation is ongoing.

Hey everyone!!

I usually don’t post GoFundMe’s on my pages but I know Colton could really used the extra support right now.

I was in the same shoes as Colton a while back and I know if other people didn’t help me it would have taken a lot more out of me then it did.

I know a lot of people in the equine community have tack and other horsey items around that they definitely wouldn’t miss laying around their barn anymore that would be put to good use. If you can’t donate any money please try to donate a horse related item or even a good word of encouragement.

Remember, no good deed goes unnoticed.

Thanks!!

Hello everyone.

Lately we have received a lot of hate for doing what we are because we are not registered as a 501c3. We are self funded for the moment because all good things take time, and none of us ever imagined this to grow to the point it has with over 1,000 followers.

For those of you not educated about the over population of dogs on the reservation, here is a link posted below to a website that better explains and help others understand why we are doing this.

Plain and Simple….. shelters are FULL.
Very few rescues/shelters have contacted me to even help us with these dogs because they don’t have the room. We have even reached out to a handful of rescues and we get the same response that they are full and can not help.

Coconino Humane Association (Full)
High County Human (Full)
Winslow Animal Control (Full)

If we didn’t take our personal time, energy and money to do this, many of the dogs/puppies we have found homes for wouldn’t be alive today, especially with the resent cold front we’ve had.

Hateful comment do 🚨NOTHING🚨 at all for these dogs, it does not benefit them at all. Unless you are personally going to take a puppy and provide it a wonderful loving home then we would rather not take your uneducated comments.

We have people trash us daily who have no idea what we are doing and sadly most these people have never taken a drive across the reservation and stopped at a gas station to see the dogs begging for food and their ni***es almost dragging the ground because that momma dog has had so many puppies back to back that sadly probably died, or will die shortly after weaning.

🚨The dogs on the reservation that aren’t properly taken care of are exposed to a list of things.

Starvation.
Manage.
Parvo/Distemper
Hungry coyotes and even wild reservation dogs.
Highways with people who speed (posted 55-65MPH, people drive 65-90)
Freezing temperatures with no shelters.

🚨The people who are posting so much negativity and hate… what are you doing for the dogs on the reservation? Don’t trash someone trying to do good if you aren’t willing to fix the problem yourself🚨

We have found homes for over 180 puppies alone since October 12th, 2020 when we finally made a page for others to follow.

180 puppies is INSANITY. That’s 180 puppies that risked dying a horrible way on the reservation. That’s 180 puppies that now have loving families to care for them.

I started this page after 3 dogs and 1 cat personally walked themselves to my house completely skin and bones. They came here because they KNEW they would be safe.

I started this page because I was sick of moving dead dogs on the reservation highways.

If you don’t support us or what we are doing then reach out to other rescues and ask if they have room. We are more then willing to work with rescues to provide these dogs homes they truly deserve. I can even personally deliver them to that rescue…. If you find a rescue that isn’t full, please let us know.

It’s about the dogs, not uneducated opinion of people who aren’t doing a single thing but sitting in a warm house being an internet troll.

You truly care about the dogs, then do something about it. The fact that we aren’t a 501c3 in a little over a year of operation isn’t the real issue. The real issue is the dogs dying left and right on the reservation.

We aren’t a rescue. We are self funded rehabilitation center with goals to relocate these dogs into families who can and will provide them the love and care they need.

Our rehoming fees are $100-300 including delivery. All these dogs have been personally vaccinated by us and most are fully vaccinated by the time they leave. Yes they are feed store vaccine but it’s better then no vaccine at all running the reservation contracting and spreading Parvo.

Our rehoming fee doesn’t go to us, it goes back into the other dogs at the ranch.

We spend $150 a week in dog food alone, not including vaccines, dewormers, vitamins… and the list goes on.

CHECK OUT THE LINK POSTED BELOW AND PLEASE EDUCATE YOUSELF ON THE OVER POPULATED DOGS ON THE NAVAJO RESERVATION.

We’ve been called puppy flippers and I guess if it means these puppies aren’t starving to death on the reservation then I’ll gladly wear that title

Please note that we don’t just take in dogs, we have taken horses and other animals off the reservation and provided them with loving homes. We reserved two horses off the reservation that were involved in the big drought the reservation had where 150-200 horses died in a watering hole. What horses didn’t die in the mud or from dehydration had a high change of dying from botulism from drinking stagnant water.

If these links don’t provide you enough information to the sad reality of some of these animals then please go to Google and type in “Navajo Reservation Dog population” and you will find plenty of articles with information.

By some estimates, 250,000 stray and neglected dogs roam the reservation — and they're killing and maiming and straying into neighboring communities.

These are the last two puppies from chunky, the bully dog momma.

Chunky was found as a pregnant stray in Winslow, Arizona. Dad to these puppies is unknown.

These puppies were born 12-11-21 and will be fully vaccinated on 5 ways before they leave and I have dewormed the puppies and the mother while pregnant and nursing. Mother was vaccinated 2 weeks after birth.

I can deliver them🚨

I have a puppy going to St. George, UT and I can gladly haul one of these along also.

Rehoming fee does apply that goes back into the other animals at the ranch.
