Say hi to Dolly! This poor sweet girl was turned out by family after her owner died (she had been raised as a pet, not a guard dog). Fortunately, kind neighbors looked after her and kept her safe. Unfortunately, Dolly is not a fan of their cats, so they weren’t able to take her inside. When a different neighbor threatened to shoot Dolly if she came on his property, the couple put her on a tether and gave her a dog house. As much as the kind neighbors loved Dolly and wanted to keep her for their own, they knew she deserved a better life so they made the very hard decision to let her go (breaking their own hearts in the process🥺).

While working on a better solution for Dolly, TCHS had her spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped to help keep her safe while she was waiting✔.

Yesterday, finally, Dolly began the journey to a new home of her own! Dolly loves riding in cars and had a fun trip. She even got a cheeseburger while waiting at the meet up spot🍔😻😋. The kind neighbors wrote the sweetest note to her new rescuers, to let them know a little bit about Dolly and what she deserved most – to be loved😭❤😭.

Dolly is now at our partners with the SPCA of Wake County, where she will receive much love and care until her new forever owners come and find her❤. ... See MoreSee Less

We are definitely in kitten season! Today we transported four sets of kittens and a puppy to rescues in Northern Virginia. Thank you SFC Virginia: The Squishy Face Crew and Homeward Trails Animal Rescue! These rescues are literally saving lives of cats and dogs in our area. Our fosters, other volunteers and Jenn and her crew at JR Pet Services Waggin' Train Galax make these rescues possible.

Please, please have your furry friends spayed or neutered so we can reduce the number of unwanted pets in our communities. It’s up to all of us to do our part. The animals transported today are the lucky ones. ... See MoreSee Less
