It's heartbreaking to witness the all-too-common story of neglect that affects many of the dogs we take in. Often, signs of distress and illness go unnoticed until it's too late, leaving these pets in desperate need of care and love by the time they reach us.
Allie, a three-and-a-half year old Scottie, was turned back to her breeder when the owner lost his wife and had to move in with his daughter. The daughter already had dogs so there was no room for Allie. Allie had one of her rear legs amputated due to an accident when she was a puppy. However, she gets along very well.
In March, our hearts were touched as we welcomed a precious soul into our care: Frijolito (27905), a 3-year-old Siberian Husky.
His skin condition spoke volumes about the loneliness and neglect he had endured.
Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno (LRRF) is pleased to offer you a very special two-for-one deal––adopt the fabulous Eevee and get a bonus teddy bear! You see, her teddy bear stuffie is her very bestest friend. He has been there through it all with Eevee––the death of her beloved person, witnessing the death of her companion dog, getting dumped at that scary shelter, the pain of her torn ACL, meeting that really nice Defender of Dogs person who rescued her, getting comfortable in her foster home, her subsequent TPLO (Tibial-Plateau-Leveling Osteotomy) leg surgery recovery––and now Eevee and her bear are finally ready to find their forever family.
Returning a dog to Fresno Bully Rescue is something that we don't hear about often. This may be because there are feelings of guilt or the returning adopters are criticized by friends, neighbors, or even family members. But dogs get returned often and sometimes it's for the best. The scenarios when thinking about returning a dog are endless, and it's nobody's business to judge. With that being said, let's talk about a good boy, Rusty, that's been returned twice.
Edison, a five-year-old Cairn, came into Col Potter Rescue as an owner turn-in. His owner complained that he was bossy and terrorized her; a real handful. Well, after all, he is a terrier.
Maizie Albright may no longer be the teen actress star of Julia Pinkerton Teen Detective, nor a celebrity who spiraled her way into a scandal, but her acting skills still come in handy. A private investigator working as a honey trap for Albright Security Solutions (the acronym is regrettable but often appropriate), Maizie is testing out her client’s fears that her husband is a cheater.
Chief is definitely tall, dark, and handsome but he is also incredibly loyal and loving. Not only that, but Chief is quite the gentleman with wonderful house manners.
As the owner of the Sugar Maple Inn in the town of Wagtail, Virginia, Holly Miller is used to being surrounded by a huge assortment of four-legged friends. After all, Wagtail Mountain has established itself as a place that caters to everything human companions could ever need, from specialized veterinarians to clothing stores and restaurants.
When we think of breed rescue organizations, we think of dogs being saved from public shelters, unsuitable home situations, or turned in when owners pass away. Col. Potter Cairn Rescue, the largest national breed rescue in the country, like most rescues, does far more.
