Luckie Dog Foundation

If you run into the below hysterical bu****it from one of our well meaning but uneducated and poorly informed "volunteers and contributors" postings please disregard it.

NO healthy dog will EVER be put down on our watch. This person has taken information out of context, processed it through their own version of reality and perhaps with good intentions exaggerated to the point of ludicrous-anyone who truly knows us and our operations will attest.

Good intentions often pave the road to hell. If you want UP TO THE MINUTE status on this very liquid situation in this economy (MCACC is slaughtering wholesale when they still have open kennels) GET IN TOUCH AND ASK!!

Many thanks.

Hi everyone,
Given the rising costs dog rescues, and other animal shelters, are having to put healthy dogs down because they don’t have the funds to care for the animals. We are trying to save one independent dog rescue from closing its doors, which would result in all the dogs in their care being put down. It would break the hearts of the people running this rescue. They are trying desperately to keep things open, including paying for dog food and veterinary care out of their own pockets, but they are running out of funds. We started this GoFundMe page to help keep Luckie Dog in business. I know there are a lot of other dog lovers out there like me. Please make a donation today and help save the lives of innocent dogs. Most of which have been rescued by Luckie Dog from abusive situations. The dogs and I thank you for your caring 🐶
********************************************************************

The difference between a NEW HIRE and a VOLUNTEER is you can FIRE the new hire or dock their pay til they learn and listen. The volunteer can just go find someone else in need to stroke themselves for helping while judging something they know nothing about.

This is WHY we are NOT a "rescue" and do not do adoptions typically or fundraisers but pay for what's needed out of our own income and pockets for rehab. Big Mutt Network was the first "rescue' we'd contracted for in 3 years.

We simply got robbed of now $43k+ and five dogs dumped on us and another few thousand on a sixth, who was ultimately STOLEN by another lunatic.

Latest statement ($43k) on The Big Mutt Network and Stephanie Campbell's theft of services.

We've done the work, cared for and loved the dogs and they're still here.

We should get paid.

A dog received life-saving surgery after his limbs stopped working from an abnormality. Vets used 3D-printed screws on his spine to give him a second chance at "being a puppy again."

06/06/2024

Well it's finally up and official. An associate of ours put up a GoFundMe page to try and help us recover from the robberies over the last year totaling over $40k at this point.

Please share prolifically and give what you can-trying to keep everyone alive around here, including us while we run a 20+ dog rehab/sanctuary on what's now a shoestring.

THANK YOU!!

Too late. Corporate veil fell with the 501c3 revocation August of last year.

And 2nd or 3rd time "closing" in the last year.....sympathy and donations that won't make it to the creditors.

Betcha.

For information's sake and to expand the layman's perspective the BMN dogs will be advertised for adoption when legal counsel and process dictates, not before.

They are not easy dogs to place, all will come with mandatory training criteria-sick of dealing with the incompetents and corrupt after 35 years. There are business legal and financial concerns that come AFTER the care and well being of these dogs. This is by far not the first rotten rescue we've dealt with-every barrel has it's rotten apples. We even call it "Witness Protection" as falling back into abusers hands is always a concern in these cases.

Patience, and if you truly care about the dogs instead of the applause or the fight for the entertainment, stay tuned.

Not our first rodeo. Sure it won't be the last.

Updated invoice on The Big Mutt Network's bill on the five dogs they've abandoned in our care.

28 years and never learned. Habitual.

Nearing the end of her run.

This post contains two of the dogs dumped on us here at Luckie Dog Foundation. Roman and Maximus are STILL here with several thousand dollars accrued in unpaid board.

Roman needs a veterinary evaluation on his joints and Maximus is dog and in the right situation human aggressive and has killed a cat-both facts we learned from his previous owner who turned him over to BMN in the first place. Not from BMN when they dumped him here.

We haven't seen a payment in months despite a request just a few days back to provide an invoice.

So yes, Stephanie, LET'S "give these dogs the opportunity to thrive and find their forever homes".

And on the lighter side.....

A concerned animal lover found herself a bit embarrassed after rescuing what she believed to be an injured creature found on the roadside.

ONE veterinarian so far-and one of their staff reported straight to this criminal. Apparently we struck a chord.

Only just getting started. This woman WILL be caught and stopped. She wouldn't know truth and honesty if it dropped out of the sky and landed on her head.

But we'll see.

Tick tock.

Today, I have been contacted by multiple veterinarians whom we collaborate with, informing me that an individual has been calling them, requesting that they sever ties with our organization. Fortunately, these veterinarians held us in high regard and chose to notify us of this situation. It raises the question: who benefits from this action, and who suffers as a result? Regardless of personal feelings towards me or our rescue efforts, I understand that some may have had negative encounters while others have had positive ones. I am at a loss as to how to prevent further harm to both our organization and the animals we strive to help. I am eager to establish a channel of communication to address these issues. If you have feedback, whether positive or negative, please reach out to me directly at [email protected]. Constructive dialogue is essential for us to improve. Rather than resorting to destructive online behavior or spreading incomplete information anonymously, I urge you to communicate openly and maturely. Let's work together to better understand and resolve any concerns.
Sincerely, Stephanie

Logan has been stolen by his potential adopter after they let him eat another foreign object and ended up in Yavapaii Emergency Animal Clinic last night in Prescott.

He had been placed in boarding at Run A Muk kennel in Prescott and started vomiting approximately 12 hours after his arrival then had to be manually assisted to remove what he was trying to pass. Appears to be a sock or scarf that he must have eaten before being dropped at the boarding facility to have taken that long to pass through. Once that was pulled out his symptoms worsened and the boarding facility made the proper decision and took action to get him to the ER veterinarian.

They're refusing to return him even though their contract has not been completed or signed by us (see pics) and have cut us off from all medical info to even see how he's doing or if he needed surgery or survived. Obviously there's provisions within the contract (highlighted) that allow us to retrieve an animal from an adopter due to abuse neglect or other violations of the agreement-so in either case from a legal standpoint we retain ownership and legal right to possession.

Potential adopter's name and copy of adoption contract included below. She is an assistant city attorney for the city of Buckeye, Arizona, so we are in touch with them and the Az. Bar Association as well.

Updates as they occur.

The below and our response was posted on our NononsenseK9 Training & Behavioral Services page a few days back:

**********************
"The Big Mutt Network
Please explain to us how a dog in your care requires a $1000 surgery for toenail that grew into his pad, or explain why there's no photos ot videos of the dogs in your care or why you won't let anyone into see them?"

Answer: Odin arrived in that condition, was taken for medical care that was charged and paid directly to the veterinarian by Big Mutt Network (Stephanie Campbell, know known convicted of neglect and cruelty in Pima County) who did the surgery with NO involvement or charges from LuckieDogFoundation whatsoever, immediately. We have no idea what the surgery cost but we do know he was in Big Mutt Network's care when he was neutered and it was neglectful to not have removed them at that point-likely a year earlier. Transport, aftercare, medicine and supplies were all provided by us free of charge.

There are hundreds of photos of dogs in our care, our facility and our classes online and in media going back over 30 years, in addition to commercially published articles by and about us. Index or copies upon request. Charges may apply for research going back beyond the Internet's creation.

Anyone with an interest and reason is welcome in our facility/home. Especially those like you who owe us over $25,000 in board fees and who have dogs in rehab with us for over a year still abandoned here. You've never knocked. Police and Humane Society and Animal Care and Control are welcome and frequent visitors as unfortunately, nutball humans often try to weaponize them against us to cover their own misdeeds and crimes. Fresh coffee and access is always available to those qualified. We work in opposite tandom with them in bite neglect and abuse cases, along with the Superior Courts quite often and even take in dogs from them they cannot handle well beyond their registered "New Hope" volunteers abilities.

This does not include every moron volunteer for any random, unlicensed, inexperienced and inept "rescue" who cares to send one by to drop off a dog they won't keep anymore or who has worse problems than they can handle. (See pics below for eg, although he was euthanized without being sent to us for evaluation or rehab after two separate bites on the same volunteer)

Please feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!!

We're currently trying to retrieve a dog from another miscreant who let him eat his FIFTH foreign object and is now in ER fighting for his life while we have to fight the idiots over ownership-contract to be published shortly.

Nutball, abuser, con artist KILLER is starting to become the norm in this industry-not on the public's side, but on what used to be these animal's only hope and chance. Folks like us.
