✨ Help Us Bring a Little Christmas Magic to Lucky Penny Rescue ✨

Lucky Penny Rescue has had an incredible year of lifesaving work, but Espresso and Marshmallow’s ongoing medical needs have run our accounts dry. And while we wouldn’t change a thing, we’re hoping for some help to end out the year with the resources to help even more animals in 2026.

If you’re able, we’d be so grateful for your support. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us provide medical care, food, shelter, and the love each animal deserves.

🎄 Donate. Share. Spread the word.
Together, we can make this a Christmas full of hope for the animals who need it most.

Thank you for being part of our rescue community, your kindness truly changes lives.

Happy holidays from all of us at Lucky Penny Rescue 🐾💗🐶🐈‍⬛🐈 🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻

🌿A Heartfelt Thank You for Olive’s Rescue 🌿

Olive is settling into her new home beautifully, and we couldn’t be more proud of her journey. Her story is one of resilience, compassion, and community, and we want to take a moment to thank everyone who made her rescue possible.

🐾 Companion Pets of Cleveland: From day one, you stood by Olive’s side. Your unwavering support throughout her rescue and your dedication to finding her the perfect home made all the difference. We are so grateful for your partnership.

🏥 C & C Veterinary Services : You went above and beyond for Olive and her puppies. Through every challenge, you cared for them with expertise and compassion, supporting us in the hardest moments and celebrating the victories right alongside us.

🚙 Lucky Penny Transport Group: Sixty of you strong, with twenty coming together to move Olive from South Texas to Ohio with gentleness and care. One of you even drove over 250 miles in one direction with Olive, an incredible act of kindness. Your time, cars, and homes made this journey possible.

💗 Our Community: Every like, share, comment, donation, and word of encouragement fueled Olive’s rescue. You reminded us that we are never alone in this work.

Together, we did this. Olive’s happy new beginning is a testament to what’s possible when compassion and collaboration come together.

We couldn’t pick just 4 photos from Olive’s time with us so here are 10 that capture her journey. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts for being here with us. Your support means the world to us and to dogs like Olive 💗🐾🐶.

Olive’s journey from South Texas to her forever home in Ohio is a story of resilience, teamwork, and the power of community. What began as a challenging rescue quickly became a shining example of how partnerships, volunteers, and supporters can come together to change a life.

Olive is thriving in her new home thanks to our rescue partner Companion Pets of Cleveland, our amazing care team at C & C Veterinary Services , our Transport Volunteers & YOU! Together, we made her happy ending possible.

Thank you all for being on this journey with us 💗🐾🐶

🌿 Olive’s Big Arrival in Ohio! 🌿

Sweet Olive has officially made it home to Ohio with her adopter, and we couldn’t be happier to share this milestone. 🐾💗🐶

On transport, Olive continued to exceed expectations, although she was clearly uncertain, she bravely ate, drank water, and even accepted some gentle pets. Once she arrived, her adopter set her up with her very own room to help her adjust at her own pace. With her crate door left open, Olive has the freedom to come out when she feels ready.

Olive has the help of a wonderful role model: Roxy, her new big sister! 🐾 Roxy has been squeaking toys in Olive’s direction and offering playful bows, inviting Olive to join in, but she’s also showing patience and respecting Olive’s need for space, which is fantastic.

We are so grateful for the care, experience, and love Olive’s adopter is bringing to this transition. And we’re so grateful to Companion Pets of Cleveland for working so hard to find this perfect home for Olive.

Watching Olive’s story unfold reminds us that rescue is all about hope, resilience, and second chances. 🌿

Stay tuned for updates as Olive continues to blossom in her forever home.

🚙 Olive’s Transport Update 🚙

Sweet Olive is proving to be braver than we imagined 🐶🐾💗.

While transport can be unsettling for any pup, Olive is finding her rhythm on the road. She’s even eating at her overnight hosts, something many dogs skip during the stress of travel, and she’s taking her anti-anxiety medication like a champ.

Olive’s transport photos may look a little different from our usual transport updates. Our rescue transport is entirely volunteer driven where anywhere from 18 to 20 people come together to each drive for a few hours until Olive gets all the way from Texas to Ohio. Most of our dogs enjoy “sniff breaks” during that transfer points between drivers on their transport journey, stretching their legs and exploring outside. Olive, however, still finds the outside world overwhelming, so she’s choosing the comfort of her crate. Which means you’ll see her snuggled in and resting her way through this journey.

So far, Olive has traveled through Texas, Arkansas, and Tennessee, and tonight she’s safe and cozy in Kentucky.

Tomorrow she’ll complete the final legs of her all-volunteer relay transport and arrive in Ohio, where our incredible rescue partner, Companion Pets of Cleveland, will welcome her with open arms.

Every mile of Olive’s transport is powered by the compassion of an amazing group of volunteers. Olive’s journey is a reminder of the patience, care, and teamwork it takes to help rescue dogs find safety and love. Thank you to everyone driving her, hosting her and cheering her on! 🚙🐾💗🐶

Olive is on transport 🚙🐾💗

This morning we bundled up sweet, gentle Olive and started her journey from our rescue in Laredo, Texas to her forever home in Ohio.

We are so proud of Olive and the progress she has made to get to this point. We know she’ll be nervous and apprehensive on transport but she has a truly amazing forever home waiting for her at the other side of it.

We’ll post updates on Olive all weekend as she makes her way through Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and into Ohio. Stay tuned to follow along with us as Olive goes Home 🏡🐾🐶

🌟 Giving Tuesday Gratitude 🌟

We set a goal of $80 for Giving Tuesday and thanks to YOU, our incredible community, we raised $157! 💖

Your generosity not only covered the cost of brand-new cat trees for Marshmallow and Espresso 🐱🐱, but also paid for Olive’s pre-transport vet check, her final step in rescue before she heads home to Ohio this weekend.

Every dollar you gave turned into comfort, care, and hope for our rescues. You didn’t just meet our goal you doubled it, and doubled the love.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of our community 💗🐾🐶🐈‍⬛🐈

🌿 Olive’s Big Milestone 🌿

After 9 months in rescue, Olive is officially cleared for transport this Saturday! She’s heading home to Ohio where our former rescue pup Roxy is waiting for her! 💕

Yesterday was Olive’s pre-transport health check. This is the last hurdle before transport, where our rescues get a full medical exam, vaccine verification, and a health certificate for travel. Olive not only sailed through her checkup but she really demonstrated to us all how far she’s come and how ready she is for this next step.

In the past, Olive’s vet visits meant waiting in the car and going straight into the exam room in her crate for safety. We had always avoided the waiting room as it was completely overwhelming for Olive. But this time was different. Olive let us carry her into the clinic whereupon she curled up in our lap in the waiting room. She even sat with us in the exam room while soaking up cuddles. And she accepted pets and love from the vet and techs.

Olive did shake from head to toe at the clinic and she was clearly relieved to be back home afterwards, but many dogs act that way at the vet’s office. And for Olive, that meant she was acting like a totally normal, sweet (if nervous) pup at the vet. For Olive anything “normal” is monumental progress. 🐾

We are so proud of Olive and beyond grateful to everyone who has cheered her on during her journey. Now she’s ready to take the next step - her ride to her forever home. 🚙🐾🐶💖

🐾 Giving Tuesday with Lucky Penny Rescue 🐾

This Giving Tuesday, we’re dreaming of cat trees for our playful duo, Marshmallow and Espresso who are rapidly becoming healthy enough where they can move out of quarantine. With Olive leaving us this weekend it means they’ll hopefully be ready to move into the rescue room in no time at all 🤞.

With just $80, we can give Marshmallow and Espresso the climbing, scratching, and napping space they both deserve.

And because we make sure to stretch every donated dollar as far as we can, any leftover funds will help sweet Olive get her pre-transport health check and travel certificate, bringing her one step closer to her forever home.

✨ Every dollar is a branch on their tree of hope. ✨

Will you help us reach our $80 goal today? Together, we can make sure Marshmallow, Espresso, and Olive feel the love this Giving Tuesday.

Thank you 💗🐾🐈‍⬛🐈🐶

🐾 This is a Big Week for Lucky Penny Rescue Network! 🐾

🐈🐈‍⬛ On Tuesday, Marshmallow and Espresso head back to the vet for a recheck. We're crossing paws that Marshmallow’s crystals have cleared and both kittens are free of UTI issues. If all goes well, they’ll receive their first vaccines which would be a huge step toward their forever homes!

💙 Tuesday is also Giving Tuesday, and we’ll be launching a fundraiser to help cover the kittens’ ongoing care. Every share, donation, and kind word helps us keep going. Please stay tuned for updates and thank you for being part of our journey.

🐶 On Wednesday, Olive has her pre-transport health check as she prepares to leave Texas and begin her journey to Ohio and her forever home with our former foster dog Roxy. After 9 months in rescue Olive is our longest-stay pup and we are so proud of her and happy that she’s cleared these milestones and can go Home! This weekend we’ll all follow her travels together as she rides on our all-volunteer transport network.

This week reminds us of all the ways in which small scale local rescues can make a difference - for the Marshmallows, Espressos, and Olives who just need a little extra time, care, and love to find their place in the world.

Stay tuned for updates, and thank you for being on this journey with us 🐾🐶💗
