Our little foster puppies are Lab (black/brown and some with white markings) mix and around 8-10 weeks old. They were all recently rescued from a gas kill shelter in North Texas.
History - These little puppies were found dumped in the trash. There was a total of (13) puppies and now we are down to (7) left. They were all found, but taken to a kill shelter. These babies were never placed up for adoption! At the last possible moment - all the pups were rescued (along with 9 dogs) and tra…

Dear Friends,

THANK YOU Alva for creating such a great positive forum.Once I saw those pictures I knew it was time. Alexi in particular caug

Lexi is a super fun Baby girl. She is a Terrier-Collie Mix estimated to be three months old (as of 8/4/10). She is so adorable, playful and enjoys playing with any kid or doggie she meets. She is also great with kitties, hanging out with them, sharing kisses... She loves being with us giving huggs, kisses and playing ball. She is still a puppy so she is working on her housetraining

Madison (Madie) is a super sweet young lady looking for her forever home. She was rescued, just in time. By a family who couldn't let her be put down. Not after looking into her beautiful eyes.
Madison is a Medium sized Keeshond Mix who is estimated to be between 5-6 years of age. She was matted when she was rescued and is sooo happy to have been shaved. She can now wag her little tail. N

Here we have Inka (19.6 lbs). This sweet girl is a treasure. Since we're a small shelter with VERY limited funding, we have no official diagnosis for Inka either. What we CAN tell you is that her eyes are completely clouded over, but we don't know why or for how long she's been this way. Inka was found wandering out in the County. Yes, a blind dog... in this extreme heat.... wandering all alone out in the middle of nowhere. Paints a pretty bleak picture doesn't it??? You think she'd be bitter an…

Ever heard the phrase, "The blind leading the blind?" Well, for most of us that's all it is.... A simple phrase or idiom. But to some, it's much more literal than that. Take for instance, Catahoula mixes Molly and her brother Jack, residents of the City of Corsicana Animal Shelter. For these two siblings, it's a reality. You see, Molly & Jack were born with special needs. Molly has partial vision in one eye and is completely blind (best we can tell) in the other, while brother Jack appears t…

I was outraged when I saw this story on a link on Facebook! Clearly this "Shelter Manager" Diane Oates has no knowledge of dogs and only took the word of a worker that knew even less that she does!

I live 2 hours from Amarillo, Abilene, Witchita Falls, and Lubbock and have been rescuing animals for severals years. Being so far from any major population and very few people bother to neuter or spay their animals, we are over run and no one seems to care.....over the last couple of years I have rescued and found homes for many cats, dogs, horses and burros.....I still have 7 cats and 5 dogs that I need to find loving forever homes....I have reached the point where my finances and health no

He should be fed to his snake...ALIVE!!!. I still can't beleive what I'm hearing....Some people (and I call them "people" loosley) have cal…

My friend in Beaumont TX has found a sweet female lab/weimeraner mix who
is very skinny & has a scrape on her back that is healing. She is
leaving for Houston today & needs to take her somewhere that can
help, as she cannot take her home. Can anyone advise? She says the dog is very sweet & lovable.

Julia is approximately 9 mos. old and very sweet! She's great with kids and loves everyone, but my husband and I just can't keep her. She showed up at our door about 3 mos. ago and i instantly fell in love with her. We live in a mobile home though, on a lot and there is a weight limit. If anyone is interested please let me know soon, if I can't find a home for her I,m going to have to take to the pound and I really don't want to do that!!

I don't understand how a human being can choose to make a dog suffer.I REALLY need help. My neighbor has had a beautiful male Boxer-Rocko-for about 5 yrs now. He is so sweet and precious..I have grown an attachment to him...taking him treats and giving special love to him. I 've noticed through the years he has shown up on my front porch-looking really bad,sickly-ribs protruding and dehydrated. I have taken him in many a time and fed him and gave him water and let him play with my dogs. You see,…
