Rescue Stories
Dogs are the coolest beings on Earth and I am reminded of that every single day. This old boy just joined our family. He has a painful broken jaw and is covered in scars - the telltale sign of living outdoors. He's had a long, hard life. But he's a good old boy. His tail swings, his brown eyes sparkle, and he just wants to rub his head against you and plop in your lap. He's easy going, he's kind, and he's grateful. He seems…
Two Rescues, One You. Be the Difference. Meet Perma and Asta, two medical emergency cases that arrived on the same day. Sadly, this is typical at Stray Rescue. Both this dog and cat are heartbreaking but we are going to do everything we can to save them and give them the beautiful life they deserve. We can't do it without you. First, meet Perma. This sweet little kitty was hit by a car. Her little jaw is broken in at least one spot but possibly…
Before we introduce you to a new dog, first we want to show you his x-rays. We all did a collective gasp when they popped up on the screen. When he came to us, we thought he was hit by a car. We're told his owners moved and left him behind. But as you can see, he is another victim of senseless violence. He is dragging his back legs, they are paralyzed and now they're raw from being dragged. His name is Owen, his life…
He didn't come all the way here to give up now. Meet Remo These eyes need you. All your prayers!! **Warning, Graphic Content** We were contacted by someone in a rural area, hours away. They heard we are the shelter that will help an injured dog no matter what. We will give them the chance they deserve and see if they can live a good life. And if there is a chance, then we will give it to them, no matter the cost. Meet Remo.…
Because of you, he has a fighting chance Earlier this year, we had a hell of a time rescuing a dog family from an abandoned house. The houses where we rescue are falling apart. They are so cold and dark, many have hundreds of hiding places among the trash, unstable floors, and broken furniture left behind. When a little puppy is scared, they can just shut down, making it nearly impossible to find them - even if you walk right next to one. It took…
March Muttness 2023 YOU are the reason for the absolute and pure joy on their faces. They come to us with nothing. No confidence, no family, no toys, no home. And saddest of all, they come to us with no hope. So, because of our supportive community, we are able to give them comfortable blankets, medical care, show them toys, nutritious food, and touch. We touch them gently until they no longer flinch. We pet them until they no longer cower their heads. We work…
Our newest Warrior, meet Paulie He has a long healing journey ahead, but he's getting the very best medical care Remember Warrior Dogs Marco, Marshall Tucker, and Dante? They came to us with such severe infections in their face from different types of injuries. Paulie now sadly joins their club. The moment we pulled up on the street, we could see a skinny body with a head much too big. We could see the infection from the street. This poor dog wound up on a…
Be THEIR Valentine! Sponsor an adoption and give the gift of love Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and LOVE is on our minds! Who loves unconditionally and gives you everything they have? Why dogs and cats, of course! So this month, we are asking you to GIVE LOVE...literally! Sponsor an adoption fee this month for one of our beautiful, adoptable pets. When you choose to GIVE LOVE, you are making it easier for forever families to open their homes to a new family…
It's the Matching Mania Grant Giveaway! Donations are MATCHED on January 31. PLUS get a prize with every donation! The rescue jeep has been going full throttle for the last month picking up dogs with extreme injuries. It seems we cannot come up for air in between the extreme cases. Our new building at 4084 Bingham was broken into and all of the electrical work was cut out of the main panel, and with bitter cold February weather on the way and so many lives…
72 hours, 4 dogs SHOT, one you We need your help The violence in our city against people AND animals is unnerving. Man's best friend is being treated worse than we've ever seen in our history. Over the summer, we had emergency after emergency come in, many of these poor souls too badly injured and got to us far too late. It brings us to our knees to see these angels suffering for absolutely no reason. In the last 72 hours, Stray Rescue has welcomed…
