Yay!

🚨🚨🚨Help!! We have been overrun with dogs and puppies in need over the past few months! Our local shelter has been closed for dog intake while they undergo upgrades to their kennels. While these shelter improvements are much-needed, the impact of abandoned and unwanted puppies on our all-volunteer staff and budget has been crushing! 😢

We are lucky in that we have some amazing partners in JR Pet Services Waggin' Train Galax who are able to safely house these pups while we get them the care they need and work together to find rescues and adoptive homes to take them in. But because many of these animals have extensive medical needs (on top of routine vaccines and preventives), the bills have been A LOT!

Unfortunately, we do not receive government funding to care for these animals, and these unexpected vet bills are coming out of our spay and neuter funds and we are running dry!

Pictured are some of the sweet pups who have been abandoned and left behind by the people they thought they could count on. But we are working hard to get all of them the lives they deserve with owners who will love them and keep them safe.

From three pups found in the woods by a kind couple and told by animal control to put them back where they were found! Then there was poor Rosetta - her puppies had been taken away and she was cast aside. Andy, who was abandoned with a severe neck wound where he had likely been tethered with a too-tight collar. Five pups whose owners were forced to vacate their trailer and were unable to take with them. Petunya, whose owners just moved and left her behind to wander the busy roads and beg for food. And there are so many more!

Please help us help these sweet souls. Any amount you can provide will help us save more pups like these while continuing our mission to spay and neuter to reduce the future population of homeless and unwanted animals!❤❤❤
