🆘🚨CRISIS - ATX AREA FOSTERS DESPERATELY NEEDED🚨🆘

We've been posting desperately looking for fosters or rescue for many beautiful dogs, but unfortunately the list keeps getting longer! We are so overwhelmed that even finding time to post for our team feels impossible. We are trying to think outside the box to save these lives but the first step is going to be getting them out of the situations they are in and into safe foster homes. 🤞

We have been sharing for the past couple of weeks our continued efforts to work with out-of-state rescue partners to save lives. We hope that some of these dogs may be able to become a part of that mission, but again that means we must first make sure they are safe and alive. 😓

We are urgently seeking ATX area foster homes who are willing and able to welcome one of these dogs even just for 2 to 3 weeks! Each one of them is so beautiful and so deserving of being saved as they ARE IN IMMEDIATE DANGER‼️

📣 IF YOU CAN FOSTER PLEASE EMAIL US AND WE WILL WORK TO MATCH YOU TO A DOG WHO MATCHES YOUR HOME.

🚨 ⚕️SURGERY DAY FOR BABY BRICE ⚕️ 🚨

🆘 EMERGENCY FUNDS STILL NEEDED 🆘

We just dropped Brice off for his surgery and our stomachs are in knots. We are so fortunate to have one of the very best surgeons come in on her day off to perform the surgery, and it's being done in a Specialty ER which is exactly where he would need to be if anything were to go wrong, but we still just feel so sick. 😞

Last night he stayed with one of our rescue directors and it became even more apparent to us what a darling and strong little man he is. He's so hungry for attention and to give kisses. He's got the true spirit of a puppy who is ready to fight to have a good life. We so desperately hope that his tiny body and heart can pull through this.

Brice, we love you so much our brave boy. You have to come home to us so we can give you the future you deserve. ❤️

Please pray for this little one. We cannot stress enough how delicate and risky his surgery today will be. 🙏

JUST his surgery today will be We still need to raise a significant amount of funds to be able to cover it. Thank you all so much already for the support and fighting with us. We need our little guy to pull through. 😓

🚨🆘URGENT AND HEARTBREAKING PUPPY UPDATE🆘🚨

First of all, we have named our angel Brice. We love him and are so gutted by the news we received from the ER. We thought that his leg was the worst of it, and while it's definitely the most immediate need, we have some even more devastating news. Our little boy has a very long road ahead of him. 😓

We will start off by giving updates on the problems that we already knew about. Brice's elbow is completely broken. Looking at his radiographs it doesn't take a doctor to see how badly. He's casted up now to help keep him comfortable, but tomorrow he will have to have a very extensive and expensive surgery that can only be performed by a specialist. Despite the fact that he still wants to be a puppy he is in excruciating pain.

Overnight he also was pooping out foreign objects. Among those items were the pieces of a chewed up grocery bag. Thankfully so far he doesn't seem to be having any GI distress but we have to proceed with so much caution. We have no idea if there is anything else in there or how long even these things have been in his digestive tract. But wait, there's more....

Brice seems to have a grade 4 heart murmur. This very much is a birth defect that he has because of horrific and unethical breeding. We are so upset. We do our very best day in and day out to warn people, yet here we are again with a tiny little puppy who's a genetic disaster.

Why is this all so terrible beyond what meets the surface? We have a four month old puppy who is about to undergo a very invasive procedure tomorrow that he absolutely cannot go without but he very well may not survive. 💔

We are in between a rock and a hard place and we don't know if our precious boy is actually going to leave the clinic after we drop him off tomorrow. Him not having surgery isn't an option, and so by miracle if he survives he will then also need a full cardio work-up. But we feel like we can't even think that far ahead yet.

We are truly numb and exhausted. We need so much more financial help than initially thought to save this precious life. Please will you help us? 🙏

🆘🚨 FOUR BEAUTIFUL DOGS LIVES HANG IN THE BALANCE 🚨🆘

We stayed awake last night with the faces of these four beautiful dogs haunting us. Knowing that we are powerless to immediately save their lives, but that we still had to figure out a way. Because they can't die, not like this...not without a chance. ‼️

We are begging and pleading for any rescues to step up for ANY of them. The black bully and two American bulldogs are extremely dog friendly, and the little brown bully is very loving to humans, but is not able to be fully dog tested.

Sadly the shelters are very loud, small, and scary. It's not a fair place for a failed dog to have their ultimate fate decided. They didn't ask for this and they DON'T deserve it. 💔

📩 501c3s who can help, PLEASE email [email protected]

💌 Foster offers email (MUST BE IN ATX AREA): [email protected]

While we are completely overwhelmed, if we are able to get committed foster offers for any of these dogs we will save them. But we NEED fosters to do that. They have to have a place to go.

Please please share! We cannot express how desperate we are to not see these four dogs be failed. 🙏

PLEASE DONT SCROLL! URGENT!!

🚨URGENT NEED🚨
-10 Temporary foster homes (from now to March 1)
-Donations to cover initial vet care and supplies

‼️Texas is in a shelter overpopulation CRISIS which has resulted in the DEATHS of over 60,000 pets annually. At TEN TIMES the national average, Texas alone accounts for around 20% of the total number of euthanasias in the ENTIRE UNITED STATES 😞.

Despite this,Texas continues to see increasing dogs in shelters, while adoptions are actually declining. Less than HALF of dogs that end up in a Texas shelter will ever be adopted, simply due to the overwhelming number of dogs in need. 😔

BUT, we CAN make a difference ❤

📌On March 1st, our new Rescue Transfer program is scheduled to take TEN qualified bulldogs OUT of Texas. We are scrambling fast to pull as many as we can for this transfer, but we NEED your help! ‼️THIS IS LIKELY THEIR ONLY CHANCE TO SURVIVE‼️

🆘⚕️URGENT FUNDS NEEDED FOR INJURED 4 MONTH OLD PUPPY⚕️🆘

We are still so overwhelmed, but how could we say no? 😓

This darling angel is only 4 months old and he's already suffered so terribly. Not only because of his very apparent injury, but also because he lost his family because of it. 💔

We saw an urgent plea from an overwhelmed shelter begging for a rescue to step up for this little baby. He was injured when a child fell on him during play and though his family had just spent thousands of dollars purchasing him they did not have the money for vet care. You guys, this is truly a cautionary tale. Spending thousands of dollars on a puppy that you cannot afford to get vet care for is so irresponsible. We aren't trying to demonize anyone, but this tiny boy is suffering, and has been for longer than he should have. 😓

Our volunteers are rushing to the shelter as we speak to pick him up, but from there we desperately need funds to be able to take care of repairing whatever injury he has sustained. He's in good spirits but it's clear to see he is very hurt.

📣 Please share, we truly need help.

Our precious Ham is waiting so very patiently for a snack. 🥹

That's not the only thing this darling boy is waiting for though. What he'd love more than anything in the universe is to finally have a home of his very own so he never has to lose those he loves again. 🙏

Ham has been with us for a while now, and he's such a loving and adoring boy. He just needs a few snacks at first to know you're safe and won't hurt him, then he's your best friend. ❤️

Dogs like Ham who have had the worst done to them but still somehow want to be with humans are just the best dogs. He's such a warm hearted little man who hates when his humans cry and will come to cuddle and lick away your tears. It's breaking our hearts that he keeps being passed by. 💔

They're out there Ham. We won't stop looking.
