Attention all potential fawn-nappers!

Just because you see a baby deer all alone doesn't mean it's auditioning for a local production of Little Orphan Annie.

Newborn fawns are like teenagers. They get left alone for hours while Mom runs errands. This sneaky strategy keeps predators from following mom to find them. Usually, these fawns are stashed away in tall grass or bushes, but sometimes they're found in more obvious places - like your backyard.

If you stumble upon a fawn that appears to be orphaned, hold off on your rescue mission. Give it at least 24 hours to see if Mom returns. If the fawn appears to be in distress and is calling out loudly or covered in flies, then call our N.C. Wildlife Helpline at 866-318-2401.

Adopted!!

Meet Hobo our new little foster dog. Mr. Hobo is looking for a new home without small children. He gets along with other dogs and some cats (he likes to bark and scare our kitty but is doing better). He LOVES your lap, your bed and your constant attention. He is house trained and will use a puppy pad if he can not get outside (he does not like rain).
Hobo has a birth defect of his front right leg so he holds it up and does not use it. He runs and plays on three legs.
He has been neutered, had a growth removed from his side, shots updated and blood work. All donations will help with his vet bill and help keep his adoption fee lower. We will update tomorrow the total cost of all his medical services at the Animal Hospital of Marion.

July 15, 2019 Update on Tom Tom and CoCo:

Dear Friends,

It is with a heavy heart that we let you know that Tom Tom is now with Nadine in Heaven. We took Tom Tom to the veterinarian and they found he had a collapsing trachea, bladder stones, cataracts, inability to control urination and bowel movements, limited hearing and a form of dementia. He would walk around the house stumbling into things and whimpering until he would finally wear himself out then he would lay down in the middle of the floor and sleep. We would try to hold him when this happened but he seemed stressed and would want down to pace again. We stayed with Tom Tom while he crossed the rainbow bridge.

CoCo is doing very well and quickly adjusted to being back into our home. We had some wonderful friends to come visit us and they decided they wanted to give CoCo a new home with their family. She is doing great in her new home.

We will use any donations that we receive to pay for Tom Tom and CoCo's veterinarian visit and Tom Tom's cremation.

Thank you to all of Nadine's friends that reached out to us to let us know about their situation.

Healing Hearts Small Animal Rescue.

Thank you Sam for putting us in touch with Melissa W. so she could transport our babies back to our rescue. Thank you Melissa W. for your time in traveling to get these babies back to us! Thank you Ricky and Hazel for offering your help also! They are here and resting.

Mia is a 1-2 year old Chihuahua mix. She is great with other dogs and cats. She loves to cuddle and sleep in your bed under the covers!

She came to us after giving birth to 7 premature puppies.........sadly she lost all of her babies. We have given her time to grieve, gain some weight and heal from her spay surgery.

She is house trained and puppy pad trained when she can not get outside. She loves women a little more than she loves men.

15/04/2019

The money raised will help us support these tiny babies that are now in the care of Healing Hearts Small Animal Rescue.

Goldie is 13 years old. She came from a breeder that did not want her anymore. She is very sweet and very tiny. She likes warm blankets, sunshine and food! She loves to eat!!

She is a happy girl that sleeps most of the day. She is looking for a forever family that will love her the rest of her days on earth. She has a heart murmur and takes a half a Lasix twice a day. She must stay on this medication the rest of her life.

Ms. Sophia has a narrowed pelvis area and a tail that has been broken in several places due to an old injury. It is unknown what caused these injuries to her little body.

She will need home with no small children because she is scared of sudden movement or noise. She loves other dogs, likes to play and loves her snuggles and warm blankets.

She has the beginning stages of cataracts in both eyes but she still does really well with getting around.

Merry Christmas from Healing Hearts Small Animal Rescue!!!

Healing Hearts Small Animal Rescue is the oldest animal rescue in McDowell County, NC. We have been pouring our heart into rescuing animals for 23 years! We have made some wonderful friends through helping our community. During 2018 we have taken care of animals while their owners were in the hospital, rescued sick, abused and injured kittens and dogs, taken in animals that were referred to us by the McDowell County Animal Shelter, rehabilitated orphaned wildlife and released them back into their natural habitat, and loved every pet that has entered our doors. All of the pets that we rescued this year will always hold a special place in our hearts especially the ones that had terminal illnesses and lived out their last days in the comfort of our homes.
Please consider making a donation to Healing Hearts Small Animal Rescue to help us care for the animals that will need us in 2018. All donations that we receive will go directly to help animals and Facebook makes sure that 100% of your donation goes to our 501 c 3 nonprofit organization.
