I felt this.
Hard in my soul. Every rescue is full.

We need so much more help.

Here it is November 21st. As you know, the Post Office is out on strike. For any of our donors that send cheques to the Rescue for Christmas, could I ask that you do so by e-transfer? We are desperately low in funds at this time. The furnace in the dog building has died by may be able to be reinstated with new parts. As well, I suffered a brain injury recently and I did have a C-Scan and was assured I do not have a brain bleed, or a tumour, but I certainly have a very sore head. I have moved all dogs into the house in this cold weather. The dogs love it but I must be careful they do not trip me in their excitement. So, enough moaning. I'll keep you up-to-date after my appointment with the neurologist. Again, thank you for any donation you can afford.

Thank you to those who have left bags of comforters, blankets and towels at the gate. However, we do not need sheets or pillows so please do not leave those for us to burn.

The gate is usually closed as we have two escape artists that like to wander away.

Thank you.

This goes for all dogs, purebreds and mixes alike.

Good News!!! Too many sad posts lately, and I thought I would share this. The beagle, Molly, that we took in after her owner passed away and she was then to be euthanized, has found a home. A lovely young mother in Merrickville with a 10 year old daughter who Molly just adores. Off to the vet this a.m. to check on a questionable lump, to find out it is an "okay" lump. Molly will have years of walking, fun, and playing in her new home. The first beagle we have ever taken in.

I have put this out of my mind for a week now, to now avail. Last Friday we lost Aidan. Aidan was a purebred American Pit Bull Terrier, and was never put up for adoption because of the Legislation in this province. He was sweet, well-mannered and we moved him to my home where he would get more individual attention after his best friend, Snuggles, suddenly passed away. Aidan and Snuggles shared a kennel, a crate and unusual for APBT's, they ate their meals together. He missed her so very much. In my home he had exhibited no aggressive tendancies, got along well with Quinn, the alpha dog, and welcomed any new critters to the Rescue. He is very missed. I am tiring of losing dogs to illness and death but I am reminded that is part of Rescue.

Here it is the middle of July, and hopefully the heat dome has ended. The heat is very hard on the animals and most stay in during the day. Just asking if any followers have ideas for fundraising. We are at our wits end to raise money. And, yes, we still have dogs who are aging and need veterinarian care. We have never solicited money in prior years but since Covid, donations are lean. I have taken on another job to help off-set funds needed. Any ideas???

About six years ago we rescued two bull dogs from Spencerville, Ontario. Spencer was one of those dogs. He was aggressive with people he did not know, he was aggressive with other dogs and because of a wonderful volunteer, Debbie Coleman, he grew out of that behaviour. He stayed at the Rescue because we felt he was not safe to place in just any home. He was loved. In the heat of a week ago Spencer passed away on his own terms. He had been to the vet clinic because of a breathing problem earlier. His happy way of organizing the other dogs will be missed.

LOST DOGS - , ON - June 13, 2024
From: Stephanie Millar

Hi, I'm writing this for a friend that just lost everything including his pets.

Last night in the big storm, a tornado hit close to his house and caused the electrical line to go down and burn his house, garage, cars, absolutely everything they owned. Him and his wife were able to make it outside but barely, on their way out they left the door open and they hope that their dogs (x4) made it out also
They live in the Woods on the side of a lake. On Donelson lane in Lanark.

They found one of there dogs and are missing 3.
They are probably scared and ran but they are all very friendly.
He has 2 standard chocolate poodle and 2 pugs.

Only one of the standard poodle was found.

Today our wonderful Morgan gelding, Mr. Incredible, passed and is no doubt running through fields in horse heaven. He was 34 years of age. He came from a special rescue outside of Kingston, Ontario. He was kind, mannerly, raised his head when he heard my voice and loved the little miniature horse who came with him. He did suffer from that horrid disease, Cushings but it was manageable. Today, he simply laid down in the field and enjoyed the sun. A lovely vet from the Smiths Falls Clinic came out and what a grand person. She talked to him, she sat with him when I had to run into the house and she made me feel right about what I was doing. He is buried here and I can visit him daily. His registered name was Samor's King Cobra but to all who knew him, he was Mr. Incredible!!!

Our lovely, Packer, who was fostered by a couple in Lombardy, passed away two weeks ago at the Rescue. He was an amazing dog with such a will to live after losing the use of his hind end. He was kind, obedient, loyal. He was one of the most difficult decisions we have made. He was simply worn out. He was a handsome American Staffordshire.

A very Happy Easter to all. A sunny day to walk the dogs at last. We have been very behind in keeping up the Rescue page. Any volunteers?
