Actual video evidence of the inside of my brain trying to prioritize tasks lately.

Aren't these little psychopaths the cutest?

Puppy MMA 24/7.

Ask me why I'm so tired? No sleep for me. 😭

We made it to the vet today! Everyone needed a bath first, so yeah, picture me soaked and freezing cold after bathing 11 puppies.

We may or may not have left a big pi$$y, shi!!y mess on the floor in the exam room. 🤣🤣🤣

The vet kept saying how cute they were but I couldn't get her to take one or 11 of them home with her.

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated and commented to sponsor a puppy for their vaccines! I appreciate you all so much!

Everyone has now had their first round. They will go again in 3 weeks, then be available to go to their forever homes. Pray that I make it through this. It's funny I'll take all the behavior cases. The deaf dogs. The hard dogs. The ones other people can't handle.

BUT.......

I AM NOT CUT OUT FOR PUPPIES. HAHA. 👀

Check out the one looking out the back window. They're the sweetest little things.

Currently for hire to do some shady stuff to cover all these vet bills.

I'm begging for enough to cover these little precious puppies first vet visit for their core vaccines and exam to make sure they're healthy to be able to find their new homes.

I can not cover this myself. Please help.

Fifty each X's 11.

Link to contribute in comments. Or comment/message how much you're able to do and you can call into the vet tomorrow to pay direct.

This isn't optional care. We have to get these puppies vaccinated!!! Please sponsor one or more in taking care of them.

HAPPY Fri - YAY for the weekend! Another long busy week here at the refuge.

These screaming poopers are almost ready for their first round of vaccines next week.

They are also eating me out of house and home. If you're able to send some DRY OR CANNED puppy food that would be AMAZING!!!

If you're able to sponsor 1 or more please please help us get their vetting done to get them ready for their forever homes!

Immediate needs this week for:

🐶 Litter of puppies
🐾 Zeus the dog with Heart Disease
❤️ Precious the sweet girl in hospice care with Pulmonary Hypertension

**Canned puppy food.
***Prescription medications. (Zeus and Precious share several of these meds. So, one scripts covers less than a month since they split them).
****Canned low sodium food. (4Health sensitive stomach is the lowest available on the market that I've found at Tractor Supply).

Thank you all so much for your support. ❤️
