So this is what it’s like when Christmas comes early!!! A big huge thanks to Rescue Pack for helping to supply us with so many much needed things like food, toys, puppy pads and supplies. We got a lil bit of everything at this distribution and as you can see the animals are all in heaven enjoying it all.
From Hartz we got puppy pads to help keep our animals messes less messy. From Chewy we got toys that you can see even our olde guys Niko and Charlie Bear love playing with. New food and water bowls and food mats that are not slipping around the floors and keeping things cleaner. Pet beds that even our cats like Samantha are enjoying. From Stella & Chewy’s we got freeze dried cat food that the cats absolutely love even Samantha decided she wanted to eat it right out of the bag since we weren’t feeding it quick enough lol. From Acana we got Pacifica dry dog food that enticed even our olde guy Niko to want to snack on some kibble again which he hasn’t done in months. From Merrick we got wet dog food that makes giving the pups their meds so much easier and they love getting a nice snack too. Wow oh wow can you see why we are so excited here for this miracle to make sure these animals have the best Christmas!!
To Chris, Jay, Loraine, Nancy, Tricia and myself for all coming out to help unload and get everything put away. It was a huge load we got and it was all done within a couple hours because of everyone’s generosity of time and effort so we weren’t unloading for days lol To Chris who is always doing the drive to pickup for the rescue and making sure our load is secured before heading back, it’s a long drive and we know it’s a lot. When he gets back he jumps on the skid loader and makes sure our pallets are up on our deck so we are not having to walk up and down the stairs a million and one times making it so much easier on all of us. To the generous financial donors who made sure that our distribution order was able to be paid for, Deborah, LaVern
When you’re done with the flooring and putting in doors in one of the rooms you need someone to inspect things….well I had some pretty darn good inspectors last nite, Champ, Leo & Peaches. And I’d say they fit the qualifications the best for the job since it will be their new place. With the wagging tails and happiness I’d say we passed their inspections.
The Mutt mansion is coming along, I swear it’s taking a lifetime BUT we want it done right so we will all just have to have a lil bit more patience as the construction continues. Just hoping I won’t be ready for retirement by the time it gets completed 🤣
Charlie Bear got a special delivery last week and he absolutely loved it!!! Thank you to Auntie Debbie for knowing he needed his favorite special treats as he has felt a little down lately. He sends you lots of hugs and sloppy kisses for making his day soooo much better 🐶

Just an average day of playtime in the yard for Jax, Sasha and Trinity. This is what their fun time outside looks like. Now that the weather has started to cool down to somewhat of a normal tolerable temperature outside they get to enjoy more of their time outside which they all love 💗
I wanted to take the time today to slow down for a minute and wish the Vice President of the rescue Chris a very Happy Birthday. As much as he can drive me to my witts end, we disagree and we can have our spats he is a huge part of what makes our rescue function. I think part of running a rescue with your spouse your bound to see that happen. With all we have been thru with doing rescue for about 17 years and building a new facility the past 5 years the stress has definitely pushed our limits at times lately. At the end of every day knowing the animals are taken care of, in better places than they have lived in and so many are enjoying their furever families is what truly makes going forward everyday a little more possible.
Just to give an idea of what he does for the rescue and the animals here’s the short list: 😹
Our driver for food and donation pickups, picks up our intake animals, personal chauffeur for the animals to vet visits, adoption events, home visits and fundraising events, he is our track machine driver unloading all the big loads we get, he takes the animals on nature trail walks, lets them out for playtime, yes he even gets up in the middle of the nite letting out the older pups who can’t hold it, he’s always talking to people about the rescue being a marketing guy, he listens to all my rants and follows my commands as he says 😝 I call them requests, he cleans up messes from the pups, he always takes the garbage out, he does doggie laundry, he helps Charlie Bear our big shepherd boy outside with his harness since he can’t walk so he can enjoy some fresh air and sunshine and all the animals end up falling in love and trusting him even if some want to eat him as they were so scared and not always human friendly upon intake.
He truly is a huge part of making this rescue function everyday and honestly we don’t know what we would do without him. So everyone please join me in wishing Chris a very Happy Birthday today 🥳 Some pics of th
Charlie Bear after a bath and enjoying his time getting fresh air and sunshine outside. Have we mentioned how much he loves all of his toys???

Meet Rocky Balboa one of our amazing kitties looking for his furever home!! He’s sweet, playful, curious, loving and social but it takes him a few minutes to warm up to new people. We are unsure of what happened to him as a kitten but some type of injury caused him to be a tripod (3 legged) kitty. Don’t let that fool you though as he stands behind his name and is a warrior that acts just like a regular kitty, runs, plays and jumps just like all the others.
