The year ended as busy as it started with big changes, an adoption for someone who really needed it, the arrival of a couple of darling bookends … and the loss of a little one who we will always remember. Thank you to everyone for helping us through this wild ride of ups and downs. […]
Recovering from Vet Bills … With so many emergencies and vet bills in October, we spent much of November focusing on fund-raising events. We had signed up for SocialVest earlier in the year, but really amped it up for holiday spending and SocialVest’s sign-up contest, which awarded cash prizes to the winners. Unfortunately, we didn’t […]
We love all of our rescues, but there are just some who completely win our hearts. Mars was (and will always be) one of those. Maybe it’s because this gorgeous boy was at the ranch for years. Sometimes, it was hard to understand why, considering how incredibly handsome he is. He was the perfect Parson […]
October was another month of struggle and heartbreak; one that has left us swimming in vet bills and begging for donations to move forward. It also restored our faith in others. Ruff Start The first week was an incredibly ruff week for our two special-needs girls, Chloe and Pippa. After several consultations, it was agreed […]
September was a month that truly tested our patience and will to go on. Had it not been for the introduction of some new (amazing!) volunteers, we could not have gotten through it. Heartbreak Hotel Two heartbreaking cases of neglect, Chloe and Pippa arrived in September … even though we were once again full. After countless vet visits and surgeries, […]
So this is Christmas … and what have we done? So much this year! We’ve even had to break it down into segments and success stories with the Jack Flashback 2012 series to chronicle all of it. It’s been going on for days and we still have a few more to go! In Memory of […]
It’s Christmas Eve and we all love a little miracle, so here’s a beautiful one. Pippa arrived at the ranch in September. She had spent her entire 7 years of life in a concrete run with two bigger dogs who ran all over her. Her feet were flattened and deformed because of it. Her owners […]
The rescues at the ranch have been busy preparing for their sled race. Watch the video and see who wins! And, yes, Eli and Frazier really do cause trouble like this. 😉
August was definitely the dog days of summer with us scrambling to adopt out the influx we had just encountered. In the midst, we kicked off Eli’s Wish List, received some much-needed help and took in yet another precious dog who was down on his luck. Campaign Trail We kicked off several new promotions, including […]
Peyton had been at rescue for what felt like forever. He was part Beagle and bigger than the other Jacks, so many people overlooked him when they visited. Five years to spend without a family is a little much for any dog to bear, but this precious boy took it in as much stride as […]
