We were so sad to miss the #megadoption event yesterday but we had to keep our store open. So happy it was such a successful community event! We played with Iris our store dog and worked on some lady like manners for a Pittie …. Happy Sunday …. Enjoy🍁
🐾🐾🐾Squattie Camp-Pup-Date 🐾🐾🐾
Every picture tells a story….
These pictures show how happy Squattie is at day camp. His camp leader tells us he is learning more each day! He sits and stays for his meals, he walks on his leash with ease, he is learning that an open door does not mean go ! And he is socializing ! He has friends of all sizes! He romps and rolls with them! He knows his crate means quiet time. Squattie is transforming to a perfect pet.
What an opportunity … to adopt a dog that’s on the road to achievement! He is pint size, smart and ready to go!
Please consider adopting Squattie or making a donation so we can keep him in camp and not bring him back to the kennel.
Unfortunately we are not able to do our adoption event today. Enjoy this little clip of Mr. Redbone. He is such a wonderful dog♥️♥️♥️

Many of you know that one of our on-going ways to support the rescue is our little vintage store at 234 H Street. We are currently closed through August so we have time to refresh and redecorate for the Fall! We are currently accepting Fall and Winter item donations. We accept gently used household and decorative items and some clothing.
If you are cleaning closets please put us on your charity list. Due to volunteer staffing we are unable to pick up but we will schedule a drop off time. We thank you to all the folks who have donated so Many good items through the seven years we have been open 🍁🍂

But some dogs just like to watch the show!! Lady from the Hap ‘n Lady duo is doing just that 🐾
Deputy …… the amazing story of a neglected dog, saved by Kern County Animal Services, now in rescue and still looking for a home!
Deputy is most likely Hound/DobieX
Just my guess. He has a lot of hound characteristics. He likes to sniff n uncover. Bone robbery is his game. He is gentle and if a dog can be kind I would tag that on him. He doesn’t care to live at the kennel and without a foster that’s all we have for him. He is ready for adoption!!!
But until then we are looking for a foster home with space. He gets along with dogs, we aren’t sure about cats. We would prefer not. He will resource guard his food due to his before life where he was denied adequate feeding. He is also a gobbler( fast eater). His personality is goofy, dopey and kinda fun! If you are looking to foster ( or adopt) a larger sized dog please give him a chance!
You may reply in comments or message and we will get back in touch !
Oildale stray/abandon dog rescue continues. We have caught 3 of the 4 dogs and #4 is the most difficult. She’s now evading us and not coming out . If she would only cry uncle we will reunite her to the family and she will live a life she never dreamed of. This late afternoon when I went to check on her, I found a puppy, several doors down, sitting in a crate in the direct sun no shade to protect her. The crate was disgustingly dirty, and she was sitting in a bowl of empty water. It was just after five and county wasn’t answering, the sheriff gave us a song and dance, and I was truly afraid the puppy would die. Finally we got the owners attention and tried to educate him how leaving an animal in direct sunlight for a prolong time could kill. He really wasn’t showing much concern. It was breaking our hearts to leave the dog because he was keeping him in the crate. We asked for the dog and he would not relinquish. Finally his other half came out and gladly gave us the dog. She had not one nice thing to say about the dog and made it very clear She didn’t want it.
This is one little half street in Oildale and upon it is so much poverty, ignorance and people with no concern because they truly don’t know better.
Best for people like us to stay out of places like this because our hearts can’t take it. This has been 7 days of going daily 2 or 3 times each day. Each day we meet a new person or witness a neglected hungry animal. It’s all so discouraging. 🐕🐕🐕so now we have another dog🐕🐕🐕we wouldn’t have it any other way because leaving this puppy in that harmful situation was a non -negotiable. This dog is a cutie, so young deserving a better life.
We need a foster !!!’ We really have no space and this puppy needs to be in a home learning how to be a dog, learning how to respond to commands, and getting positive reinforcement and lots of ❤️. Please comment if you can foster .
.+++++++Volunteers Needed +++++++
Shelter pull…. Shelter pull!!!!! Deputy is off the PTS list permanently and is safe !!!
We will be posting more pictures and info.
What do you do when you walk away in the 11th Hour. You sing !!!!!!
