31/08/2024

Hey there! I'm Roxy. I came to The Devoted Barn from Oklahoma with a few of my crazy family members. We used to all live with a bunch of other dogs and a few people in a tiny house. It was super crowded, and well, let's just say we had to be rescued.

We were all pretty scared when we first came to Michigan. Thankfully, our new people took really great care of us and taught us that people can be trusted after all. I am the Mama of our group. I watch over Blitzen, Joseph, and Scarlett.

I lived in a new house for a little while after we first came to Michigan, so I do know what it's supposed to be like. My brother Rudolph stayed and was adopted, but I needed to come back to learn more about trust. I still take my time to get to know new people, but for the ones I trust, I give kisses, accept pets, and love b***y scratches (those are THE best!).

I am pretty close to walking on a leash, but I need a little more help. I don't mind having a leash on as long as there are chicken snacks involved. I love running in the yard with my crew, and I am also crate/kennel trained.

I would love to try living in a home again. Here's my list of needs: a fenced yard, someone to keep teaching me how to walk on a leash so we can walk around the neighborhood together, patience and understanding, unconditional love, a cozy bed, and snacks! I haven't been around cats, but I do love kittens, puppies, and most other dogs.

My Moms at the rescue say I would feel more comfortable if you came to meet me and spent time with me before trying to take me home. I am a bit shy at first, but snacks help! Do you have snacks for me?

Love,
❤️Roxy❤️

IT’S $5 FRIDAY!
We are so excited for some big changes coming to the farm and all the great updates that are happening at the Dog House.
The only reason we can can do these things and feed and care for all our 4 legged friends is because of YOU!
If it wasn’t for your generosity on days like $5 Friday we wouldn’t be able to care for everyone.
Thank you to each of you that donated yesterday to help us pay our kennel rent, please keep helping because that is on going.

I posted this on my personal page sharing this post.

While I do try and focus on being Thankful not just on Thursdays but everyday, it's been a struggle.
The daily stress of keeping this rescue going is overwhelming, I know most are struggling. I do see the other pleas for help but the reality is this, our donations are minimal. Not enough to keep the lights on, so to speak.
The daily threat of eviction for our dogs is extremely stressful because we simply can not pay the lease payment.
Our amazing volunteers have put in so much time and money making improvements to the kennel so it exceeds dept of ag standards (which is does and the license is current because of it) but it's not enough to keep the eviction threat away.
With all the nastiness of hate that has been directed towards me this past year, it has really taken its toll but we won two of the battles proving not only are our dogs doing great, we also proved we were illegally evicted which has caused this domino effect of turmoil.
But it's the animals that will pay the price if we can not get this lease paid.
I'm begging for your help.
The links are all in the post I've shared here.

I cannot believe it's been 4 years since we said goodbye 💔
28/08/2024

I cannot believe it's been 4 years since we said goodbye 💔

The call I will remember forever, “can you come get a 500lb pig out of a basement in Detroit?”
I laughed and said something like “city boys” I was so sure they were talking about a potbelly pig. But we had the horse trailer hooked up, so we grabbed a few supplies we thought we might need and we headed out.
30 minutes later we turned down your street and it was total chaos. News reporters, camera crews, fireman and dozens upon dozens of policemen. I quickly started to rethink my thoughts of a potbelly.
When I first saw you through the doorway that use to house a stairwell I was stunned. There you were standing in at least 2 feet of your own f***s, we could see your ribs. It was very clear you had not been cared for and my choice of footwear (converse tennis shoes) was not a smart one.
Over the next five hours you struggled, we all struggled. You were so fearful of what was outside of that horrific basement, it was so unknown to you. You had no reason to trust us and no reason to let us help you. I’ll never forget the quiet moment we had when I stopped it all to give you a break. You needed sugar so the police brought little debbies and you & I sat for just a couple moments. I made you a promise in that moment. I told you your life would be full of sunshine and love.
Never did I expect for that phone call to be life changing. But it was. And not just for you and me.
Sunshine my sweets, you lived a life with purpose and you didn’t even know. You have touched literally thousands of people, the impact is incredible, the lessons so so valuable.
I’m so grateful to have been just one of your moms, it’s been a privilege and an honor. That very first kiss you gave me after that long stressful day in the basement humbles me to this day.
You are free from pain now and I know you will be up there watching over us every day, you will forever be my Sunshine looking down on the Sanctuary. After all sweet girl, it was a gift for you.

Love you forever,
Mama Mel

Hey guess what gang it’s still $2 Tuesday!!!
Now’s your chance to gather up all the spare sofa change and help all the animals.
But if you really wanted you could also send $5 or $10.
You see every little bit helps. And right now we really could use all the help we can get.
I know it’s 90 degrees out, but we also need to start stocking up for winter.

Hey Everybody!! Today is
⭐️National Dog Day!⭐️

I wanted to check in to tell you my story and my great news. You see, a while ago I was lost in South Carolina in the woods. Some nice people found me and took me into their rescue, but I was still super scared. I spent most of my time hiding in a garage and didn't move around at all.
They asked The Devoted Barn to take me into their feral dog program. So up to Michigan I went. I made some really great friends at the rescue, dogs and humans. I sure loved running around and playing with my besties. We moved a couple of times, which brought even more friends into my life. I have been such a happy boy the last few years.

Earlier this year, one of my favorite people took me home to live with her. Guess what? There's a nice man and another great dog here too! I have a big, cozy bed and an awesome backyard to run around in with my new brother. I love getting pets and snacks from my new parents. I love that I got to come home with one of my favorite and trusted people.

In honor of my awesome story, ⭐️National Dog Day⭐️ & all my furry pals, please consider a donation for my pals…
Monetary, gift cards, canned & dry dog food…maybe even some silly toys 🩵🐾

🥺 Doodle is so upset.
She wouldn’t even pose or spray the hose for a $2.00 Tuesday post…
Safe to assume she’s playing hard to get because she knows how badly her animal friends need their hay bales, round and square, 🔔today🔔🐄
In the meantime, maybe she will offer her photogenic face for another day lol
Yes-It’s $2.00 Tuesday. We desperately need round and square bales for the animals.
Just a tidbit of info, once the season changes, prices increase on the bales. It would be awesome to stock up 😊
$50.00 round bale
$ 6.00 square

🐄Please help if you can.
We appreciate all of you!🥰

“we love them while we have them” ~miss ava borden

The Devoted Barn is located on a large 54 acre sanctuary farm in Oakland county. We take in animals of all kinds from law enforcement, cruelty, neglect, and large scale hoarding cases. We help animals that are unowned and that need urgent medical attention, as well as work to help rehabilitate fearful and feral animals.

The Devoted Barn is filled with horses, cows, pigs, lambs, goats, alpacas, dogs and cats. These animals come to us to heal both physically and emotionally. They learn to trust and love again, or for the first time, with the help of not only our barn family, but at risk youth and special needs adults who come to work at the barn. In addition to helping the animals, our mission to teach compassion and empathy to others through working with our animals.

We encourage people of all ages to come and visit and see our mission in action. We offer tours at the Barn and travel in the Metro Detroit area to schools for a hands on education process, teaching compassion through education.
