Hello RESCUE Fans!

Here is a re-cap since our last Blog update:

On 8/4 RESCUE dog Orion moved into foster care. He has been recovering from kennel cough and putting on some much needed weight. We anticipate that he should be over his cold soon and then available for adoption.








On 8/6 RESCUE dog Nate was adopted. Click here for the notes and photos from his adoption and click here to see the latest update.

On 8/8 RESCUE dog Ringo was adopted by past RESCUE adopters of RESCUE dog Chip. Click here and here for photos.

On 8/12 RESCUE Gretchen moved into foster care. You may recall (first photo is from her rescue) that Gretchen was in horrific condition when we rescued her. In addition to her tick covered body, her fur was severely matted and needed to be shaved completely off. :( It's no surprised that she also had a bacteria and yeast infection.






As you can see, (second photo is of her in foster care) she look FANTASTIC now!! She is continuing to receive medicated baths in foster care and we're working on her loosing a few pounds.









On 8/13 RESCUE dogs Frasier and Mindi moved into foster care.

On 8/13 RESCUE dog Roxy was adopted. We hope to receive an update and photos from her new mom soon. Stay tuned.










On 8/14 RESCUE cat Erica was adopted by the same family that recently adopted RESCUE cat Harriet. Click here for notes and photos.

Unfortunately I received another email from Animal Control yesterday stating that they are completely full at both of their locations. Sadly this is the third time this summer this has happened. :( Over the last ten years, I don't remember that ever happening. :( Please spread the word - ask people to adopt and if you know of someone who is considering giving up their pet, please try to help them keep their pet. Every little bit helps reduce the number of animals being killed each day. RESCUE will continue to do it's part to save and care as many as we can.

On 8/18 RESCUE was privileged to save two additional dogs from the kill list. Billie is a stunning Blue Merle Cattle dog that had been at the pound for 10 days. Billie is a smart, young and affectionate dog. He is currently recovering from a doggie cold and then when he is healthy we will neuter him and he'll be available for adoption. Click here for a video of Billie. Stella is a gorgeous white Boxer. She is 55 pounds of licking, leaning and loving!! She is your typical Boxer - exploring everything with her mouth, can't be close enough to her friends, a non-stop wiggle butt, can run circles around everyone and still has tons of energy to play with other dogs!! She is moving into foster care tomorrow, will need to be spayed and then will be available for adoption. Click here to watch a video of her.

Thank you for following our journey and for all your support!

Here's to another great week!!!
