“Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these - It might have been.” - John Greenleaf Whittier.

As we go through shelter’s urgent lists at the beginning of every week we often see familiar faces pleading to escape the shelter crate, but then there are those faces that we no longer see. These are the ones that haunt our dreams. If we only could have made a bigger push for them, if only we tried a little harder it might have been a happily ever after.

Daniel was one of those pups. Our foster roster was full, but this emaciated pitty sat in the shelter for a week with 3 broken bones in his foot. Unfortunately without rescue backing Daniel couldn’t receive medical care, and for a week he hobbled around with absolutely no rescue interest which meant no medical care. We made the decision to help Daniel so that he could at least get the necessary vetting, but once again he received no interest what so ever when he pleaded for a foster so back to the shelter he went.

This easy going guy is always wagging his tail no matter who is in the room. He comes across quite submissive and genuinely friendly. He has tested well with other pups and we think he will be respectful of the feline friends. Daniel is heartworm positive so in addition to his splint changes he will need to undergo heartworm treatment. We understand that this is a big commitment, and it is probably the reason rescues were so hesitant to pull him. Don’t let Daniel’s story become a “might have been”. He deserves a happily ever after, and a loving foster. If you think you can give Daniel a place to stay email [email protected] today!

A few dollars goes a long way to helping this great organization save these beautiful Gentle Giants!

🆘🆘Urgent Appeal: Rescue in Crisis, Dogs Need Your Help🆘🆘

We wish we could start this message on a brighter note, but our rescue is facing an unprecedented crisis. Right now, our funds have hit rock bottom, and the consequences are dire – especially for the dogs in our care. We're at a critical juncture where we're unable to cover even the most essential vet expenses.

Imagine staring at a list of scheduled vet appointments, knowing these dogs desperately need care, and realizing that our bank account is empty. It's a haunting feeling. Our priority is the well-being of these dogs, but we're crippled by financial strain.

We've made difficult decisions - halting intakes and reducing our current dog count. We've even intensified adoption efforts through specials, yet the demand still surpasses our capabilities. Medical emergencies have hit us hard, leaving us with bills that overwhelm us.

The upcoming week presents a stark reality:
• Monday: $1200 for King Kong, Tigger, Lucy, Miley, Bonnie, Bunny, Norma Rae
• Tuesday: $500 for Ash, Axel, Bruno, Raven
• Wednesday: $250 for Clyde
• Thursday: $1000 for Maggie Mae, Etta, Anubis, Sunny, Phoenix, Cruiser
• Friday: $1100 for Waltz, Aretha, Billie, Dash, Missy, Marilyn, Taylor, Adele
This doesn’t even cover unforeseen emergencies or essential preventative care. The simple truth is our expenses far outweigh our incoming funds.

We're reaching out because we need your help. We're at a point where lives are at stake, and without additional support, we'll be unable to provide the care these dogs deserve. Every contribution matters and goes directly toward these vital vet expenses.

We're desperate, we're begging, and most importantly, we're worried about the dogs in our care. Your generosity in the past has been incredible, and we're immensely grateful. Now, we implore you to consider contributing again.

Your donation could be the difference between life and death for these animals. Please, join us in ensuring that these dogs receive the care they need. Your support will make a tangible, immediate impact on their lives.

Thank you for your compassion and consideration.
