EVERY dog deserves to try a Pup Cup!

Obviously, today's Glory Story is inspired by the ever fabulous PEPPA PIG.
We know the teenage girl that took over PEPPA'S care a few months back made a selfless decision to surrender this angel to rescue so she could have a better life. But we also know a good deal about this dogs life prior to that. I won't go into great detail, but suffice it to say she was neglected, bred, terrified, and nothing in her previous world was stable. She was exposed to things no dog should endure.
We learn a great deal about a dog when they first come into rescue. We can tell if a dogs been a "yard dog" or if they've lived indoors and secure. We can tell if a dog has been abused and neglected. And we know all too well how these things affect a dogs personality.
PEPPA PIG has been terrified of toys since her arrival. I don't know if she's never been allowed toys or if she's been attacked over toys. Today, she overcame her fear, and it took all I had not to squeal and scare her. Baby steps are still progress forward.
Part of what we do as a rescue is to teach "broken dogs" how to BE a dog. We love them into security and help build their confidence in themselves. Before you know it, they're "getting it." The joy those moments bring is indescribable for a rescuer.
Today, I thank God for the dogs and people in my own life who have helped me in my brokenness. Those who have been there when I didn't even know what I needed. True love truly heals. ❤️ No matter the species.
Happy Sunday, friends! I hope your week is filled with opportunities to both LOVE and BE LOVED.
Proverbs 27:17

38 seconds of absolute cuteness 😍
I've already fallen in love again.
Here's the low down on our new foster. She's another Amazing Grace dog and was found wandering a neighborhood off Saufley about a month ago. No one ever claimed her, and she has since been fully vetted.
Her name is WHIMZY.
This angel is between 2-3 years old and looks like a chihuahua and maybe min pin mix. She's playful, bouncy and VERY loving. She's scared of big dogs at first but then warms up and wants to play. She loves snacks and food and is definitely a cuddler.

MIMZY is such a little love!
I'd like everyone to meet MIMZY. She is not a phoenix, but I am fostering for Amazing Grace. After the last Phoenix was adopted, I sure missed having a little one to cuddle with at night. So I asked if they had any littles that needed some loving and help getting adopted.
Ta Da!
MIMZY is about 3 years old and weighs just under 6 pounds. She is a sweetheart and loves to play and frolic. While she is pretty scared initially, she warms up very quickly if you just tell her how pretty she is and rub her belly. Like most chihuahua mixes, she likes to snuggle close and be held. She's going to be a wonderful friend for someone.

My son, Shepard, is a creeper through the whole video. Be sure to check the comments below because we did finally get him to try it and I'll post the video.

This one was VERY disappointing!
#dontmakeafacemonday #phoenixrisingrescue
I almost forgot to post our Don't Make A Face Monday video. This time we sampled some Oreos with Sour Patch Kids inside. Would you try it.
Pardon my giggles, laughs and cackles. I just can't help myself when two hefty house hippos are arguing over who gets our volunteer, Mark's, attention. He tried to tell them he's not involved, but CHARLIE tested that theory...lmbo!!!
