We rescue dogs from shelters in SC and surrounding states and give them a second chance at happiness
Well, then weather is either not our friend, or God is giving us some time off to catch up.
Think what you will, I chose to believe God wants me to have a tiny shred of sanity.
We will be doing adoptions by appointment only this weekend for certain. We shall see how next weekend works out.
You can apply to adopt any of our dogs at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
We are happy to set up meetings with approved adoption applications.
Just a funny to share.
Took these two girls to the vet today for their annual visit. Yes, it was a bit late. Still, we made it.
Each girl got her own time in the room with the vet. EACH GIRL tried to take the stick away from the dog in the painting. Natasha tried to take the ball from the dog in the painting next to the dog with the stick.
Gotta love a hound!!

Guess who decided he likes the human bed better than the dog bed.
Nick is such a sweet boy. He has a great energy and LOVES to play.
We picked up Bruno Mars after he was abandoned at the vet office.
We don't know everything that happened to him. We know he had a real home for almost two years. We know they told the vet to take him to the shelter. We know when the clinic staff told the owner the shelter would most likely destroy Bruno as they have no space, the former owner replied, "that's fine with me".
We know someone hurt Bruno. He doesn't always feel safe. We know he flinches if he isn't expecting a touch. We know he growls a little when he thinks he is about to be hurt.
We know he loves to cuddle more than anything else in this world.
We know, today, in his sleep, he started wagging his tail like crazy.
We know he deserves the best family.

Spots fill up fast for Monday, Wednesday or Friday
Funny Story. We had two spots open for dogs under 10 pounds. We didn't advertise that fact. We are tired.
A week ago, a couple turned in a baby they found. They had regrets and came back to get her.
They came to terms with the fact that they were not ready for a puppy. She is coming back to us.
That left one empty spot.
This baby is 8 pounds. Welcome to Too Broke Girls Dog Rescue . Don't you just want to smooch him!!! Thank you Clemson Paw Partners for connecting us with the finder.
Happy 2024. Thanks to the overwhelming support from you guys, we got this. Let's do this thing.
ADOPTED 2023! Some of our babies who are in their new homes for the New Year.
So many highs and lows this year. These babies are with families today.
Just a reminder, we will not be holding an event today. It is chilly.
These next few weeks will be hit and miss for us to hold events. The weather is tricky this time of year. We will be holding meetings with approved applications.
We believe we have answered all applicants.
Have a wonderful weekend.
We absolutely will not be doing an adoption event this week.
It is going to be cold. We are exhausted. We need a weekend off. And by "off" I mean, repairing shelters, spreading wood chips, mending fences, and, of course, picking up p**p.
We will be doing adoption by appointment only.
Archie came to us terrified. We don't know what happened to him. We just know AC picked him up and he needed a place. How was this almost a year ago?
So much went down before he was adopted. We know we have fantastic adopters. Tonight was a wonderful reminder.
When we can, we baby sit our pups when their families go out of town. Archie's parents came home tonight. We met them.
I told Archie to keep his cool. I told him to hold it together. He was wiggly when he saw them.
Once his dad spoke to him, HE LOST HIS MIND!!!
Okay.
We are not perfect. We make mistakes. We learn from those mistakes. We also take SO MANY PRECAUTIONS.
Recently, we were at an event. It was COLD. We only took the Husky mixes (and one Chihuahua who stayed with her potential adopter in a blanket).
Blake had all he could take and started stressing. We took Blake and his crate back to the van for the last hour of the event. He settled down and went to sleep. He is scared of kids and was just overwhelmed.
He had been in the car for about 10 minutes when this lady walked up to us and said, " the sun is out now".
We were pretty happy about the sun being out. It had yet to reach 50 degrees and we were CHILLY!
My husband responded, "okay". She then went on to tell us how Blake could not be in a hot car. Again, we had yet to reach the 50 degree mark.
We explained to her, the van was not hot and Blake was overwhelmed. He needed to decompress a bit. We were about 15 feet from the van. We could see it. We were close enough to hear Blake if he barked.
She said (I cannot make this up) "Well, that would be a ticket in Florida". I was nice. I just reminded her, we are not in Florida and we know what we are doing, at least on this.
During the summer at an event with a cat rescue, a lady called the cops when one of the cat ladies started putting cats into the car.
The cat lady had started the car so it could cool off. She then left the car running while she loaded the cats. THE CAR WAS RUNNING WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWING ON HIGH.
Some lady stood there yelling, YELLING, about how the cops were on their way to save those cats locked in the hot car. The car RUNNING with the air going.
We know people leave their pets in hot cars. We know pets die, especially here in the south.
Please have a little faith in us. Please understand we have a pretty good idea how hot/cold it is in our vans even without the thermometers we have that talk to our phones.
Also, I am not sure why I need to know the humidity inside my van. Still, I know it!!
This advice is late. Sorry.
If you are baby sitting a pup, go to PetSmart and get a tag made with YOUR phone number. Clip this to their collar.
Even if they are microchipped, your number is RIGHT there for folks to see if that pup gets away.
If you are traveling with your pet , make sure you have a tag with a good phone number. My cell phone does not work at the farm. I clip a tag with the farm's land line, just in case Sunshine gets away while we are there.
You can also get an inexpensive collar and use a sharpie to write your number.
There will be fireworks all weekend. Make certain your microchip information is up to date.
Add a tag with a good number.
Remember, vet clinics are closed New Year's day. Folks will not be able to call the clinic number on your dog's rabies tag until January 2.
Not everyone knows to check for a microchip. Make your pets as easy to identify as possible.
Crate. Put them behind baby gates. Keep all doors secure.
St. Nick!! What a sweet boy. He is around 2 years old, best guess.
We need Nick to go to someone with poodle or doodle experience. He has already been failed by one family.
He will have to go the groomer regularly. He will need a dhlpp booster. If you are not willing to do that, no need to apply.
You can apply to adopt any of our dogs at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
We can use these if you find them. We got all we could carry, cause I didn't have a buggy. One of the biggest lies I tell myself. "I don't need a cart".......
Looks like we are gonna make it!!
2023 is almost done. Not gonna lie, it has been TOUGH!!
Absolutely, no way we would have made it without the support of everyone.
All of it. Financial support. Advice. Bags of dog food left on the steps. We appreciate ALL OF IT.
We are still so far behind the 8 ball. We are still closed for intake. We are so thankful.
If anyone made a cash contribution and needs a receipt, message us.
Well, Christmas 2023 is a wrap.
Joyce insists we get back to work.
The weather isn't looking great for this weekend. We will be doing meetings by appointment only.
You can see many of our pups in our Available Pets album. You can apply to adopt at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
Handing out the last of the Christmas toys. One of our amazing adopters donated 50 toys for the pups to have on Christmas morning.
We have been dispensing them to our fosters. These are for the pups here at my house.
Merry Christmas!!
Pips, a one year old Boxer mix, would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.
Good Eater is excited about meeting folks at PetSmart in Taylors today. We will be there 12-4. We would love to see you guys!
We are back at PetSmart in Taylors Saturday 12-4.
We will only be bringing a few pups to the event. If there is anyone you would like to meet, you have to let us know before 9 am Saturday.
Good Eater hasn't been in a while. He is excited to be back out there looking for his family.
We are so thankful for the Parris family. In memory of Hannah Grace, whose heart was full of puppy love, the family collected items for our little rescue.
Last week Hannah's mom and her sister, our sweet Mac, came by with a monetary donation as well.
We will put all of this to good use. We cannot think of a better way to honor Hannah's memory than stepping up for those animals who have been thrown away or abandoned.
Chloe is missing her Hannah. This is a reminder to us, these pups know love. They also know loss.
We continue to pray for this beautiful family as they try to find a new normal.
Huge shout out to Eggs Up Grill in Anderson. We had such a good time visiting with Marley's many admirers.
Liberty didn't get to go as she decided to play in the mud!!!
Blake had to spend about 1/2 of the event in the van as he got overstimulated. No, it wasn't too hot in the van for him. It barely got over 50 degrees while we were there.
Cookie gets to go to her new home tomorrow. Calling it a good day.
Hey Rescues!!
It doesn't matter. Do you pull 6 dogs each year? Do you pull 60? Do you pull 600?
Whatever, you rock!!
Wooooooo
You are Sunshine approved!
Pull them. Vet them. Get them adopted into good homes.
Twas the week before Christmas and all through the rescue, THESE DOGS HAVE LOST THEIR MINDS!!
Let's stick our nose into another dog's day pen to get bit!!!
Oh, look, Mom left me out for 15 minutes to p*e. I shall try to rip my eye out of my head!!
Watch out favorite vets. We are on our way tomorrow!!
Blakie says his weather has finally arrived in South Carolina. All of us are not digging the 20 degree temps. Blake is LOVING IT!!
Warm temps will be back in our area this weekend, which means we will be back out at PetSmart in Taylors starting at noon on Saturday.
We have so many fantastic dogs who are ready for their new families. Sadly, we do not have room to bring everyone. If there is a dog you would like to meet, you have to let us know!!
Many of our dogs are in our Available Pets album. We are working on getting everyone in there.
Saturday will be our cut off for adoptions until after Christmas. Please don't call us Christmas Day, yelling, when we won't meet you when you have not even taken the time to fill out an application.
We are off Sunday and Monday. We will be eating snacks and throwing toys.
Mille is disappointed with me. I dropped the ball. I missed an email from her potential adopter on Thursday. I didn't see it until Saturday.
Looks like she will be spending Christmas with us. It's cool. We won't be roasting chestnuts by an open fire. We will be eating some yummy food and playing with new toys.
Her perfect family is out there. We will find them. Or, they will find us.
Bruno Mars is insisting I apologize for missing a emails.
I am not sure what is going on. I have been getting lots of spam and mess. I will absolutely pay more attention.
If you have emailed or messaged us and we haven't gotten back to you, please let us know.
After we get your online application, we will email you from [email protected].
We try to keep all conversations in this email to avoid missing something. We do text and use messenger for photos.
Nag us!! We are absolutely overwhelmed. My sticky notes have sticky notes.
Santa Pups
Everyone but Lavender got to model the Santa hats donated by one of our sweet adopters, as we were loading up to go home.
We did have two adoptions.
It was CRAZY BUSY today. We want to thank everyone who came out and donated their time to the cause.
I believe bios for all of these pups are in our available pets album. Names are with the photos.
Greer /Taylors folks, anyone know where this baby belongs?
ADOPTED
Come meet this sweet baby, and many more, Saturday 12-4, PetSmart in Taylors!!
We are so excited.
WOW! What a night we had at our Jordan's Way🐾 Fundraiser! Colleen got an early Christmas present & got to shave Patrice’s head! We want you to know that IT’S NOT OVER YET! We are LESS THAN $200 AWAY FROM $16,000!! Please continue to SHARE & DONATE HERE 👉 https://www.paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=NXBGA2BQK6FR6
Patrice will reveal the photo when we raise $1000 more
Y'all, I was not doing well with our need. So MANY dogs. So few adopters.
Then, an adopter, who we adore, sent me an update. Our baby, who was picked up by the Po Po and sent to NJ to the best family EVER, is sick.
That update made me remember. We got babies out there living the best life!!
Y'ALL are the best adopters and we adore you!!
Pray for Emma and our Babies. They are OURS! My girls!! Miss Cheryl loves you SO MUCH.

Black Dog Black Friday is FINALLY here. Come on over to PetSmart in Taylors and meet a few of our MANY black dogs.
I was really struggling today. This severe weather change is kicking my tail. Luckily, Lupita is an easy walking partner.
Love love love these babies. Just sitting in the rescue since May. Really!! Look at these perfect pups!!
Two events. Full moon. We didn't die!!! Today wasn't Leigh's day. Her perfect family just hasn't found her yet. She believes in the words of that adorable Taylor Swift . She is just gonna shake it off.
Sorry, y'all this is a long one. Two dogs takes longer and I was out of breath. I may try to just walk returns this week. This is gonna be the week of returned dogs. Maybe. You can adopt any of our pups at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
Gladys!!! Our sweet girl is just a rock star. Everyone loves her. You can apply to adopt Gladys or any of our pups at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
So I lied in this video. He did hurt Drew's tail on two separate occasions when Drew put his tail in Bear Bear's crates. Bear 🐻 is just too good of a cuddle bug to be sitting in rescue for three years. Three years of walking with this crazy woman who will not let him eat her cats. We have chased a squirrel or two.
Ugh!! Our posts keep going out as messages!! Any ideas? We apologize. Still. We have to post these babies. The little guy, Thin Line, is going to meet his new family this weekend. Good Eater is still looking for his family. Yes, I realize my mistake. I gave them new toys before bed. We will be at PetSmart in Taylors Saturday, late afternoon. You can apply to adopt at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
We should be at PetSmart in Taylors Saturday from 4:30 til 8. That can change with the weather. You can apply to adopt any of our dogs at toobrokegirlsrescue.org
Day five. She is mad at me for leaving her all day. I'm gonna take it. That means she missed me!!!
Y'all hang in there with me. I am trying to figure this out. We are trying to make him yell to catch momma
I swear they do this kind of stuff to make me laugh!!
As happens often times when we go on adventure, plans change, routes change and we begin to think we are going to have to give up and just live on the dairy farm we kept passing. But, at the end of the day, we made it back to SC with these little sweeties. Here's what happened!! A utilities worker found these babies abandoned in a field in the middle of nowhere. Let me say right now if any one tries to make an excuse for this, we will block you. THERE IS NO EXCUSE! Someone drove to a remote area and left 8 babies to die of starvation, dehydration or WORSE!! Have y'all seen the fire ant infestation in Southern GA. Can't you imagine!!! Don't even get me started on coyotes again! So their knight in shiny utility truck found a FANTASTIC rescue lady who got them safe and on the road to recovery. She contacted our friend and rescue buddy, she contacted us. We had a quarantine pen open up just they day before, so we were good to go. And GO WE DID. All dang day. Transportation was arranged to meet up a bit closer than the 10 hour round trip to get them. Fantastic. Only the person who was going to meet us, was an imbecile. Nope, not being too harsh here! They tried to transport 6-7 week old babies in the bed of a small pick up truck in carriers, NOT EVEN STRAPPED DOWN. Needless to say, one of the carriers popped open. The puppies were loose in the bed of the truck. Words were said, the original rescue, rescued them once more, dropped everything, hit the road to meet us. We drove a little further than we had planned, toured a dairy farm, looked at a few tractors, and finally meet the rescue. All's well that ends well, maybe? I don't know. While we appreciate all the help we can get, if someone had shown up with busted carriers and no puppies because they were tossed all over I75, we would be in jail right now for assault. At the end of the day, however long it was, these babies are safe. We do not know the breed. We will guess as soon as they get a little weight
We put them outside to play for a bit. If course when he tried to video the play, they wanted to be picked up and cuddled!!
These babies are NOT up for adoption. Just wanted to share some of the cuteness. Again, they have homes.
They got their Sunday Dresses on and will bet showing them off at PetSmart in Taylors this afternoon, 5-7. Come by and meet these pretty ladies and many more.
