This on-point pupper is Taz who recently completed our STAR Inmate Training Program where he learned basic obedience commands! He is approximately 18 months old and weighs 46 lbs. We think he is an Australian Kelpie/maybe some Chow mix, and was living on a chain because he was a danger to the neighborhood cats. So, no cats or small critters around this boy! Other than that, Taz is fantastic! He’s dog friendly, loves everyone he meets, and is so happy to be off of that chain and living life as a real dog should! He loves to please and really bonds with his person. Taz is so ready for his forever family! If you think your family might be the one, please visit our website at carerescueok.org for our application!

From shelter to safety, Snow White got her freedom ride! She is a beautiful 3 and 3/4 legged pibble and a 60 pound short stack full of love. She has been at the shelter long enough for the big gash on her neck from living life on a tie out to heal. AND the amazing shelter staff found an organization to sponsor her prosthetic for her back left foot that she was born without. The shelter staff have loved her and spoiled her. She has such a great disposition that she has been the dog-friendly temperament tester. She is dog friendly to all dog sizes. Snow White is approximately 3 years old and needs a SPECIAL home that will work with her wearing her prosthetic. It's important to her future joint and muscle health. Also, she would LOVE a fur sibling to play with. If you would like to meet this beautiful girl, please visit our website at carerescueok.org for our application! No

Like his namesake Kramer from Seinfeld, this Kramer is just as unique! He is approximately 2 years old and weighs about 20 lbs. He is the sweetest boy and just wants to be with a human. He also has “little man syndrome” 😂 he thinks he’s bigger than he is and likes to show the big dogs his attitude, but he does correct and redirect easily! He does have some separation anxiety (understandably!) but we feel he will lose that once he has a permanent home. He doesn’t really care to be outside other than to go potty so apartment life would work for him! Kramer walks well on a leash, comes when called, sits and waits, loves to go bye bye and can jump in and out of the car himself, and he kennels on command. He would love to have his person with him all the time! If you think Kramer might be a good fit, please visit our website at carerescueok.org.

Did you know?

Dogs have more than 100 million sensory receptor sites in the nasal cavity compared to 6 million in people, and the area of the canine brain devoted to analyzing odors is about 40 times larger than the comparable part of the human brain. In fact, it has been estimated that dogs can smell anywhere from 1,000 to 10,000 times better than people.

Yahtzee is my name and cuteness is my game! Don’t you think I’ve got it going on! ☺️ So here’s some stats on me…I’m 11 weeks old, my foster thinks I’m a Dutch shepherd mix and I have a pretty cool brindle coat. I like playing in the pool, chewing on my foster dogsister’s ears, playing hide and seek with my human girl, snuggling with whoever lets me and I’m pretty quick on the draw for food dropped by anyone in the house! My foster family says that I make them laugh, and I’m really ready to find my forever people! If you think you might be them, there’s a website carerescueOK.org, where you can find an application! Don’t wait!!

We are very excited to announce that STAR - Save Train And Rehabilitate in partnership with CARE - Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts will be doing a “Good Dogs, Bad Names” campaign for the newest class of dogs at DCCC. We've given the handlers the go ahead to come up with the wackiest, most off the wall names for the newest group of dogs.

Meet Lenny, a 1-year-old Chihuahua ready for a fresh start. He used to be a breeding dog but no longer. Lenny hopes to find his loving forever family that will help him forget that previous life and give him the sweet life he deserves!
In his foster home, Lenny is getting used to living with a family, learning to trust and enjoy life. He's a bit shy at first, but his sweet personality is always shining through! Lenny gets along well with other dogs and is becoming more playful and affectionate each day. He's ready to bring lots of love and joy to his forever home. If you have the love and patience for this sweet pup, please find our applications at CARERescueok.org!

We would like to give a HUGE shout out to the master trapper Tina Carruthers for helping us get one of our escapees back! Groot bolted out of his new home yesterday. Once out, he became very scared and wouldn’t let anyone near him. It was a very dangerous situation and we were extremely worried about him. Tina didn’t hesitate to drop everything and drive out to set up a trap. She stayed up all night monitoring his progress and keeping the family and us updated. For anyone who has had a dog in danger, you know that sick feeling of not being able to get them safe without help. Tina is our hero today! We hope she can get some rest after a long night!! ❤️ Groot is resting at home too!! 🐾🐾

Max has a temporary Foster, but after talking with our vet, he feels Max still has several good years left before the cancer progresses too much. We would truly love to find him a adoptive home where he can be loved and cared for. If you are interested in adopting Max, please contact us at carerescueok.org!

The little guy with the big smile is Max. He is a 10 year old full Boston Terrier. He recently came to us after losing his dad and the only home he has ever known. Unfortunately, bad luck has followed when we discovered he has cancer. You wouldn’t know that he has cancer because his nickname is Mr. Social - never met a man, woman, child or dog he didn’t want to be friends with! Sometimes too much but having been neutered now, that should stop! 😆 He likes going out but he really likes chillin’ on the couch or bed under a blanket. Max isn’t an under-your-feet kind of dog either. He’s funny and playful and just wants to live out the rest of his life being with people who will love him. ❤️ Please share!

🙏 PLEASE continue to share… we really are desperate! A huge thank you to all that have donated and shared so far! You are the ones keeping our doors open for now! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Folks, we are struggling. 😞 It has been a really tough summer for these poor animals with so many being mistreated, abandoned and forgotten. It’s just so heartbreaking. 💔 We are doing our best to help as many as we can but it still feels like we’re barely making a dent. 🥲 We need help. 🙏

We are asking for donations in honor of Shadow, a sweet 5 year old border collie mix who spent the majority of his life on a chain. He is heartworm positive, only weighed 29 lbs when we got him (should have been at least 45 lbs) and just didn’t feel good. You could see it in his eyes. 😞Heartworm treatment is not cheap but this dog deserves a chance to be happy, healthy and LOVED!

Please donate if you can and please share! We know that everyone’s funds are probably stretched thin and we truly appreciate any given! Saving these babies takes all of us! 🐕‍🦺🤝❤️THANK YOU for your support!!!!!
