🐾It's HAPPY TALE FRIDAY !!!🐾

Grady was adopted by Jenny & Tim - Here is thier pupdate!

"We adopted Grady July 2021... he was so tiny and precious. And photogenic from day one. Just months after Grady came to his forever home, we adopted an almost 7 yr old puppy mill rescue. Grady immediately showed his love for his new sister, Sophie. They shared a first Christmas celebration.

Grady was a wonderful photo subject from the beginning. He's beautiful in every season. And every photo... And on his first year, he became a calendar boy for a rescue fundraiser. He recently celebrated his 3rd birthday!"

If you adopted your special one from Safe Hands and would like to see your pupdate in a future post or newsletter, please send your happy tale with photos to [email protected]

As many of you know, Prime Day ends in a few hours!

Sara is a fun and playful kitten who is wanting a home of her own.

Sara has a few favorite sleeping spots: on top of a shelf of towels in the cat room, the top of a cat tree with a window to view, and a cardboard window bed. She will come running to the sound of a can of wet food cracking open. Then promptly take a nap in one of these zones. This makes her very easy to find.

Sara is easily entertained but her favorite toys have been things to play in: collapsible cubes, tunnels, cardboard boxes. Wand toys are also a huge hit. She currently lives with other cats and gets along well with everyone. She hasn’t met any dogs but with her age and easy going nature, we're confident she will do well with slow introductions. Sara consistently uses her litter box. If you're looking for a playful kitten that is the perfect balance of fun and cuddly, look no further. She is a gem!

If you would like to meet Sara or any of our other kitties, please complete an adoption applicaiton so the foster family can reach out. safehandsrescue dot org - click Adopt!

Seven is a sleek and handsome boy who is looking for a home to call his own. He's all black but in the right light, he actually has tabby stripes - making him unique and stunning. He's a playful and fun boy.

Seven is the first kitten to get up in the morning and come out to play. He will romp around for hours and then snuggle up with you when it's time for a nap. A great combination for any cat owner.

He uses his litter box consistently. Currently he lives with other cats and does great. He has not met dogs but with his personality, we're confident with slow introductions he would do just fine. If you are looking to add a playful and wonderful kitty to your family, look no further than Seven. Fill out an application today! safehandsrescue dot org - click on ADOPT!

Together, saving lives is what we do! You can help us save more lives by simply using your voice and platform to spread the word on your socials.

We need Golden Tickets and new foster homes every transport throughout the year. That means every other week, sometimes more often!

Pictured are the lucky kids who arrived nearly two weeks ago into Safe Hands, thanks to the kind humans named under each photo.

Each Golden Ticket helps cover the cost of transportation from Kentucky to Minnesota, vet exams, vaccinations, and health certificates. In return, we send you a photo of the homeless pet you chose to sponsor and a Golden Ticket certificate, proving that you are amazing! We also post it here on Facebook, and on our website.

These kids are now in loving foster homes or already adopted! Click each photo to see who sponsored who!

🐾It's HAPPY TALE FRIDAY !!!🐾

Molly was adopted by Jenny & Tim - Here is thier pupdate!

"We adopted Molly from Safe Hands in May 2022. At the time, her foster Juli was about to take in a couple puppies so we brought her into our home the day after we met her. Two days later we loaded her into the back of our Subaru with our dog Buddy for a five hour drive to our cabin, and hoped for the best!

They’re best friends. Molly learns fast and meets life with amazing happy energy. And Buddy, who’s mostly deaf, can always hear her let him know when someone’s on the sidewalk!

We’re so delighted to have had the chance to welcome this fun, smart hound into our lives. Thanks Safe Hands!"

Isn't she just the cutest! 📣Please spread the word to help Fiona find her the family she deserves!

Fiona is the perfect mix of silly, playful and snuggly. She would fit in and do well with a variety of families. She would love to join you as you sit on the deck with a beverage, or for a nice outing to the dog park. If you're doing it, she's in! She is excellent with kids of all ages and plays well with resident dogs and littermates. She is about 4 months old and 17 lbs, and can't wait to find her family!

If you are interested in meeting Fiona, complete an adoption application on our website. Then the foster family will reach out to answer questions/set up a meeting! safehandsrescue dot org - click ADOPT!

🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

We have a little fun and a little serious for you this morning. We hope you will help us spread the word. 📣

DON'T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS, TAKE PRECAUTIONS!

We saw a post this week on Lost Dogs Minnesota and want to spread that message.

Not MY dog...
I never have to use a leash, she stays right at my side.
He always comes when called.
He never chases squirrels.
She could never squeeze through that small hole in the fence.
My dog is not afraid of fireworks.
My boy is well trained.

It happens - don't let it happen to you - take precautions for your pets all summer if needed, so they dont have to go through (at best) a horrible night.

If for some reason it still happens to you, we have linked some resources to help:
📌Lost Dogs Minnesota
📌The Retrievers

The boom-boom howliday has arrived! While fireworks can be fun for some, they cause unnecessary stress for many of our furry family members. Fortunately, there are some easy ways to make sure your pets stay safe and happy during fireworks.

❤️Adjust outside time so they are not out during the booms
🤍Secure your fence & gates
💙Put on the collar and tags....just incase

Please comment below with your tips for pet sanity and safety during the booms!

Nova and all of her friends thank you in advance!
P.S. Nova is looking for her forever family!
