So true.😢

Wow, very appropriate comparison for rescuing all species right now, dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. Please don’t get a pet if you don’t have the time or money to care for it properly. And please, consider adding another pet to your household if you just lost your furry friend or you have time and space. There are so many out there with no place to go.

Every time rescue is asked to take an owner surrender- we have to somehow make room on our little raft for that dog. When an owner says stuff like “I don’t have time to give them the best life” or “I have to move” or “they have too much anxiety” it really falls flat because that means if we bring them on the raft, another dog out there in the freezing water gets to die.
Every day in rescue we adjudicate life and death by gate keeping who can get on the boat.
Rescues and shelters are the tiny rescue boats.
The ship is our community at large.
The iceberg is comprised of puppy mills, careless owners, backyard breeders, and a$$hats who won’t spay/neuter.

Let us not forget all the homeless animals on the streets trying to survive until they either die or rescued.

First time I’ve ever seen dog ownership numbers over cat ownership numbers in any statistical gathering and it’s a significant difference.🤔

Pets are a major part of owners’ lives, so it's not surprising these stats show the pet-sitting and boarding market is worth billions of dollars a year

As silly as this sounds we’ve had prospective adopters just like this recently. What is wrong with people?! This is exactly why we’re on an adoption hiatus at the moment, for me to regain my sanity.

I had a call from an interested adopter. Well, things did not go well. It went something like this.

Ppl: I am interested in adopting Kim for my grandmother.

Me: Have your grandmother apply, and once the application is processed and approved, we can set up a meet and greet.

Ppl: Can we skip the logistics and just pick the dog up? My grandmother is 94 and this would make her happy. She's not doing so well lately. She won't be with us for much longer.

Me: And you think a 1-year-old puppy is the answer? Who will be responsible for Kim's care now and when Grandmom passes?

Ppl: we are still figuring out a care plan. But once my grandmother passes, we will take it to a shelter.

Me: Sounds like a solid plan. But I'll need a basic form filled, and you can list Jesus and his mom, the Virgin Mary, references. I'm sure Noah has space in the ark and can take Kim once Grandmom moves on to heaven.

Ppl: You're joking, right? You can't be serious?

Me: oh, I don't joke about Jesus and his people. He has a reputation.

Ppl: 🗣🤯💣🌋🌡⚡Click.

Me: I thought we were making jokes 🤷🏽‍♀️.

‼️‼️‼️Courtesy post for Jennings County Animal Control. They have a much smaller population of adopters where they are, to get these animals homes and I’m guessing a small shelter. If you are interested in any of these dogs, please contact them immediately‼️‼️‼️

We need to try to move any or all of these babies… we are over capacity and some of them are scheduled for euthanasia this coming Wednesday. Some aren’t pictured. We had a mom and 4 pups surrendered today which have already found rescue we also had another mom blk pit mix surrendered with her 5 pups (old enough to be without mom) please let us know if anyone has space to take any.. they are located in North Vernon, IN at Jennings County animal control.

Message me or give us a call. 812-346-5725.

Dolly is a 3 year old female pittie mix who came to us as a stray. Poor girl was dragging a leash and clearly had puppies recently. All attempts to locate an owner and/or her litter of pups were unsuccessful. It seems she’s another discarded mama…used and then dumped.😢 This petite, short stack gal (only 39 pounds) was very scared when she first arrived but came out of her shell once she knew she was safe. Dolly adores people and can’t get enough attention. She truly wants to be your best friend and has never met a stranger! Dolly has also done well with other dogs—a meet and greet with any existing dogs in a potential new home will be required to ensure a good fit. Dolly is struggling in our kennels, as she is clearly missing the family she once had. Help us find Dolly a home to give her all the love she deserves!

ADOPTION FEES: Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, & microchipping.
Dogs over 1 year old: $70 cash and a money order for $9.95 for microchipping
