We want to thank Midlothian Friends Meeting (Quakers) granting Beacon of Hope Dog Rescue as (1) one of six charities December 2023 proceeds from The Thrifty Quaker thrift store.
This grant will be put towards our upcoming 3 spays and one neuter during the month of January!

Betty will be arriving Wednesday. We believe she is approx 5/6 years old. Not spayed yet, needs her rabies, but she is heartworm negative.
So far we know she can be “sassy”, but is very sweet and loves her people.
Will be making vet appt tomorrow.
If interested in Betty, please go to www.beacondogrescue.com, download and fill out application.

Today, Sadie (7 years old and 7 lbs) and Kipp (4 years old and 15 lbs) joined our rescue. Their owners had to turn over because of a change in their family dynamics. Their grandchildren have come to live with them and the grands are severely allergic. They were very devestated over giving them up.

They went to separate fosters since we were told they are not bonded. Kipp is good with other dogs as long as Sadie is not with him. If she is, he tends to be possessive and protective of her.
Kipp is not neutered and Sadie is not spayed. They are up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. We are scheduling their spay/neuter dates this week.

We will consider adopting them together in a home as long as they will be the only dogs due to Kipp being protective of Sadie.

Approved application and adoption fee will apply.

Two of our chiweenies went to their forever homes Tuesday afternoon. Annabelle now forever known as Maple, pictured on the left and Dewey, now forever to be known as Bud!
Congratulations to Alexandra & Michael on your adoption of Maple and to Christine & Mike on the adoption of Bud!
As always -- thanks to our foster Julie and to Rachel, with the help of her sister, Brenda, visiting from Maine!

Mercy is still looking for her forever home. Of the 4 boxer/shepherd mixes, she is the fluffiest. Currently weighs approx. 7 lbs and 8 weeks old.

And this is Mercy, one of the sisters of the sheperd mix litter. Could be boxer in there. Could get to 60 lbs when full grown. Obedience class will be required to adopt.

We are completely stumped why we still have BeBe in our rescue. She is the sweetest little Pomeranian. She is just over 5 years old and weights approx 5 lbs. She is already spayed and updated on her vaccinations. BeBe does love being outdoors alot so it would be best for her to have a fenced in yard. Per her foster, she will go on walks but not one that will do "her business" while on a leash.
Definitely a lap dog.
Share with your friends that are Pom lovers and ask your friends to share.

Murphy went to his forever home last week and we have been told he is settling in great! Congratulations to Nancy and Mitchell!
Thank you Becky and John for taking on this little guy to foster.

We cannot be more excited than to announce that MoMo went to his forever home a little over a week ago. Alex adopted Brody (shown on the right) from us about 3 years ago and MoMo caught her eye. MoMo went from living in an abandoned house in a small utility room with no electricity full of fleas and ticks to now living the life near the beach.
As you can see Brody is very happy to announce he has a new friend too! Since Alex usually calls Brody "Bro" she will be calling MoMo "Mo"! Bro and Mo!!!

BoHDR also got in five (5) chiweenies yesterday. Pictured are 3 of the 5. Three males and two girls. All are under 5 lbs and approx. 10 weeks old. They have a vet appt on August 1st.

Pictured is Dexter, Annabelle and Dewey. Big shout out and "Thank You" to Michalle for taking such great pictures!

And this is Mercy, one of the sisters of the sheperd mix litter. Could be boxer in there. Could get to 60 lbs when full grown. Obedience class will be required to adopt.

Arriving today in our resuce! This is Solo, the only boy in the litter of 4 sheperd mix puppies. He is about 7 weeks old and currently weighs approx 5 lbs.
We believe he and his sisters will grow to be at least 55 to 60 lbs so please keep this in mind.
No toddlers in the family please and remember.... this is a 15 to 16 year commitment!
We will be requiring adopters to take their puppy to obedience training and provide proof of graduation certificate.
Approved application and adoption fee of $275 will apply which includes age appropriate vaccinations at time of adoption and spay/neuter/microchip when scheduled.

Meet Beck! This low rider who weighs approx 21 lbs and is approx two (2) years old, will be coming to our rescue on Monday! Said to be very sweet and good with other dogs and kids!
He is heartworm negative and updated on vaccations but we still need to get him in for a neuter.
Your guess is as good as ours on breeds.
Would love to see him go to a young family with a couple of kids so share this guy with anyone you think would be interested.

And this cute 26 lb guy is coming tomorrow! We are guessing he is a cocker spaniel mix. Maybe with corgi or basset hound? Listed as approx 6 years old. He was abandoned in a house in a utility room with a pittbull. Covered in fleas and ticks! We will get him to the vet as soon as able to get him a wellness check, heartworm tested and updated vaccinations. Still needs to be neutered.

Sneak peek of what will be arriving on Wednesday. Both are males and both approx 1 year old.
