Just an FYI… we will be posting the basket pups for adoption very soon so we can get a head start on applications. The Mom is a Maremma and is absolutely beautiful. We will get some pictures of the parents if we can. They will be getting their vet checks and vaccines on July 12th and can go after July 13 pending no issues with their vaccines. We will post all the information in their adoption post. ❤️

We don't know the details but if it was intentional stupidity, the owners need the full extent of the law to come down on them.

New Brunswick SPCA Animal Protection post:
NBSPCA is reporting one dog fatality from HEATSTROKE
Please, please, please, leave your pets at home. Do not leave them in the car. Do not bring them running or biking with you. It is extremely dangerous to your dog.

Today and tomorrow are going to be sweltering hot. Please keep your pets inside, out of this heat. They don’t need to go in the car for anything…unless it’s a vet appt or maybe to go swimming…put yourself in a fur coat and sit outside or in the car and see how it feels.
Enough said? For most people it would be but there are still people who will leave their dogs in a car in this heat. What do you think a good penalty for someone who does that should be? Seriously, what should be put in place besides the small fine that’s in place now?

We are so very sad to let you know that sweet little Taco has passed away. As in our previous post about him, he came into rescue with several unknown health conditions and he didn’t have much time left. His amazing foster Mom wanted to keep Taco until it was his time to go to the Rainbow Bridge and in his very short time with his Mom and extended family, they gave him so much love and showed him that there are good people in this world. He got to run through the grass and snuggle in the arms of people who loved him so very very much.

We are sending out so much love and such a heartfelt thank you to Taco’s wonderful Mom, and everyone who had a hand in looking after this little boy during his final days.
Please post a thank you to Taco’s mom as a sign of support for helping this little boy.
Rest peacefully little boy and run free at the Rainbow Bridge 💔💔💔

It’s going to be a hot week. Please keep your dogs home, inside, where they will be cooler and safe from the hot sun. Walk them at night when the pavement won’t burn their little paw pads. And for the love of God, don’t leave them in a vehicle.

When you’re a puppy and you get tired, any place is a good place for a bed 😁❤️

An important and sad post:

We posted the other day that we took this little boy into rescue. He went in for his assessment today and it is bad news.
So… not only were his nails so long that they curled around and some were stuck into his paw pads, but he has a very badly collapsed trachea, his teeth are extremely infected, he has anemia, and he has a nasal fistula which is a hole in his gums to his nose caused by infection. I am so sad to let you know that this little boy has days or if he’s lucky, only weeks left in his life. He will spend the remainder of his life with his foster mom who wants to care for him and show him some love until it’s time for him to cross the rainbow bridge. Thank you to his foster mom for doing this for him . 💕
We are all very, very upset by this and this is emotions speaking, but here’s the thing. This didn’t happen over night.

Animals need more than just pretty beds and fragrant shampoo and fancy smelling p**p bags. THEY ALSO NEED VET CARE!!!! REGULAR VET CARE!!! That’s why people go to university to become a vet, so they can help animals. Yes, pet care is expensive. But that’s one of the things you must take into consideration when getting a pet.

There’s no reason for this little tiny dog to be so sick. If he was getting regular vet care he would not be as bad as he is. Neglect comes in many different forms and it’s not because you got a poor quality of p**p bags or because the shampoo doesn’t smell pretty. For the love of dog, if you can’t afford to take proper care of a pet… DON’T GET ONE. If you fall on hard times either ask for help or surrender your pet just please, don’t let them get this bad. It might not be as simple as that but please don’t let your pets get in such bad condition that it’s too late for them.

So we ask you to please drop a 💜 for Taco and his foster mom and wish them the very best couple of weeks and one thing we can be thankful for is this boy will know what love is in his final days. Some people really don’t deserve the love of an animal.

These sweet babies will be in rescue this weekend. They will be in foster care until they get their vet clearance and vaccines. We call them “The Coalminers Clan” because they are coming from a community well known for mining of coal. The More info when they get settled. ❤️❤️

We took this wee fellow into rescue today. He is in ruff shape and will need a full vet assessment, his vaccines, a neuter, dental and his nails cut. Please don’t ever let your dogs nails get like this. It’s so very very painful for the dog. It’s not expensive to have a groomer cut their nails so they never have to live like this.

❤️❤️❤️ SENIOR DOGS NEEDING LOVE ❤️❤️❤️

If you would like to meet Honey and Otis, please email us at [email protected] for an adoption application. Please read their bio before applying for them.

Meet Honey and Otis, 11 year old Yorkie bonded pair as they are brother and sister and have been together all their lives. We really don’t want a family with small children or large dogs because these wee ones are indeed wee teeny tiny dogs. They may be 11 years old but don’t let that fool you, they are full of life, they can run fast and they still love their walks. They love the cats at their foster family’s house and live very contently with the other dogs. They like to snuggle under the covers at night and love to sleep on your knee. They are p*e pad trained but have learned how to go outside to use the bathroom.
The pictures are of them with their fur long and with their fur short. Would you like to adopt these sweet wee ones?

A HUGE thank you to our dear friend with a big heart, Alicia Jordan from Alicia Jordan Designs, for her amazing awesomeness and for hosting the show for us. You are the best ❤️
A very special thank you to the tremendous trio Krista, Jacki and Dawn for working the table the whole weekend, selling tickets and keeping us entertained. You gals are so wonderful. ❤️
And the best thing of all is we raised enough money for the wee ones to have their dental work done. They are officially booked for May 14th for their surgery!!!! Once they are healed they will be available for adoption. ❤️

A great time was had by everyone yesterday at Fluffy Tails Dog Grooming and Wild Carnivore in Sackville NB. There were lots of beautiful dogs and beautiful people but the main event was when our girl Coco visited. Coco was reunited with her foster mom Jane and her trusty sidekick Gail and she was soooo happy to see them. Coco is doing AMAZING. She is so healthy, her fur is soft and shiny, she is happy happy happy and loved every minute of her life. She goes everywhere with her family.
Thank you to the wonderful ladies at Fluffy Tails and Wild Carnivore for putting on such a fun fundraiser. You are all amazing. And thank you to mudder Jane and Gail and Laurie for all your help. You ladies rock. Our hearts are smiling 🥰❤️🐾💜😘

On this date, April 17th in 2007, a small rescue organization was formed which we called Litters n Critters Rescue Society. Today marks our 17th anniversary as a rescue, and during the last 17 years we have saved the lives of thousands of dogs and a number of cats. Yes, there was a time when we rescues cats and anything with feet, claws , paws,scales and wings 😊
We survived a pandemic, fires, floods, blizzards and ice storms and are anxiously waiting for locusts and headless horsemen.
It’s the dedication of our awesome foster families, volunteers and supporters who has kept this rescue going. Thank you to each and every one of you for all of your support over the past 17 years. Happy Anniversary LnC….Here’s to 17 more???
🥂 🍾 🎉 🐾 💜

Animal abuse has to stop. The laws need to be strengthened and enforced to the fullest. No more slaps on the wrist or fingers pointed at perps saying “oh you shouldn’t do stuff like this” Animals are dying at the hands of ignorant, abusive humans and it’s time for this to stop. Do you think we will ever see any kind of change or see people being held accountable for their actions?
