Intake Freeze Notice

Over the last few months, our rescue has been stretched to thin. Puppies fighting off parvovirus. Dogs coming in with broken limbs. Heartworm cases. Cruciate tears. Emergencies we can’t plan for but always show up for.

And because we did show up, because our community showed up too, most of those dogs are now healed, safe and even adopted. But their medical bills didn’t disappear with them.

Right now we’re carrying the weight of months of medical cases. To be frank, $25,000 in surgeries, hospitalizations, medications and diagnostics that were already paid out so the dogs could get the care they needed immediately. And with winter settling in, we know the next emergency isn’t far away.

To protect the dogs already in our care, and to make sure we’re able to answer those winter calls for help, we have to put an intake freeze in place effective immediately.

This isn’t us stepping back. This is us making sure we can step forward safely.

Here’s what we need to reopen:

To get back to intake, we need to recover $25,000 in outstanding medical costs. That number represents parvo survivors, broken bones that were repaired, as well as a dog needing crucial cruciate surgery and a Heartworm positive dog who is are just starting their journeys to recovery.

These dogs are living proof that the care was worth every penny, we just need to close the gap that was left behind.

How can you help?

If you’ve supported us these past few months, thank you. You carried us through some of the hardest intake waves we’ve ever faced. And if you’re able to help now, even with a small donation, you’re directly chipping away at the expenses that are stopping us from opening our doors.

Every $10, $20, $50 gets us closer. Every share gets us seen. Every person who cares gets us within reach of saying “yes” again.
