Too Broke Girls Dog Rescue

Well, sorry we haven't been doing what we planned this week.

The first Too Broke Grandbaby decided to come a bit early.

We made a mad dash (500ish miles) to meet him. At one point my son, who was driving, said, "take your pill and hush Momma!". We made REALLY good time.

Needless to say, we will be out of pocket for a bit.

Yaya will be busy telling this little man how perfect he is.

After giving this much thought, due to the current situation with another rescue, we cannot take "found" or "abandoned" dogs. They will HAVE to go to the shelter.

We will continue to do what we can through Laurens County Animal Shelter and Pickens County Animal Shelter.

We will take owner surrendered dogs, when we have a spot, with proof of ownership. That would be complete veterinarian records going for a while.

We have tried so hard to keep animals from going into the shelter. We cannot trust the word of people anymore.

It stinks. We HATE it. It is where we are today. We are afraid other rescues are thinking the same thing. If we get arrested and shut down because someone, or several people lie to cover their own backsides, we can't save any dogs.

Caroline is smiling. We were able to take her through AC. She will be ready for adoption in about 4 months.

Yesterday, I sent several frantic texts to my rescue partner. I called the hubs.

I was in full panic mode. I knew what I had to do. I didn't want to do it.

Broke Girl called. We were on the phone and met one another on the highway. She turned around. Burned up a lunch break. We did the thing.

Other Broke Girls met us and got everyone vaccinated and in the computer.

I had a full on panic attack that God shut down with a thunderstorm. It is really hard to freak out over how to pay the bills when fire is coming down from the heavens. Literally. That was a nasty storm to be driving through.

I made it. Y'all showed up and showed out.

Do we have it all figured out. Absolutely not. Do we have what we need to get through another day. Absolutely.

I don't know when this baby, not even close to a year old, will have her babies. I know they will be safe. I know they all will be loved.

We have the best supporters. Hands down. Prayers, funds, blankets, and tiny dog houses. We got this.

These girls are beginning to settle in with their new foster family.

It will be a few weeks before anyone is ready to be adopted.

We have a small emergency and will not be having an adoption event after all Saturday. Sorry for the short notice.

And now for, "The Rest of the Story".

I was driving to Laurens County today anyway. Got a call from the shelter just before I left. Threw some extra carriers in the truck.

There is ZERO room at any and all shelters right now.

We have zero room.

We just couldn't let this sweet Momma have these babies at the shelter. And we absolutely seem to believe "no Chihuahua left behind".

These babies are scared. They are young and gave no idea what is going on . They were owner surrendered.

We need small dog beds. We need small dog food. We need even a tiny bit of sanity.

Thank you to the rescue who shared their washable p*e pads with us. We are absolutely putting them to use.

We got this. Somehow.

If you would like to help you can call directly into the Clinton Animal Hospital.

For the Love of Dog Friday!!

Snoop Doooogg!

Snoopy is one of the many sanctuary dogs we have at this time. He is so wonderful and we love him. His fear will never let him be adopted.

Dogs like Snoop have to eat and go to the vet just like dogs who are adoptable. Some we take in knowing they will be with us for life. Some we have hopes of rehabilitation. Most of the ones we have now are returns. And that's a whole nother thing.

Please help if you can. Every little bit helps.

"What stupid did Cheryl do today?"

Thursday edition. I only share this to make you laugh. No sympathy.

Buddy, the 9 Dachshund sleeps either under our pillows or between our heads.

Little Dummy, Dachshund mix, 8 years old, sleeps between our torsos.

Treble wanders about all night stepping on us as much as possible.

This morning I noticed a strange spot on the sheets. Didn't think anything of it. Later, for reasons I CANNOT even begin to understand, I SNIFFED it.

Yep. A**l glands. Good times.

Y'all can't let us rescue folks have all the fun. Adopt a dog. It will be great!!

However, if there is a strange spot on the bed, just wash the bedding. When in doubt, wash it out!!

Y'all have a great night. We will be at PetSmart in Taylors, Saturday 11-2 or until that weather turns nasty on us.

Both Little Dummy and Buddy are sanctuary dogs.
