Can someone please help this little tw coon hound gal?

Merry Christmas Rescue Friends!

We’re still not ready for Santa over here. It’s beginning to look like Christmas will pass us by if we don’t get on it :)

We went out to the shelter today and are happy to report the Spitz mix was reunited with his owner from his microchip! Yippee!! The Terrier was pulled for a rescue group. Thank you so much for stepping up to save him, we bet he will be so grateful for a bath and a brush! Also rescued is a Beagle mix. We got word from a local vet he was being taken there and it gave us a little jump-start on organizing things. All worked out and he went to a wonderful group.

We would like to send a special Thank you to a new volunteer named Pam who gathered a large donation of food, treats, and blankets. It was so much fun today to be able to spread the cheer amongst the dogs. The momma dog and her newborns were able to use the blankets to keep warm until their rescuer arrives and man did she enjoy the biscuits and “doggie trail mix” The hound was ever so grateful and we are sorry to say she was a favorite and may have gotten a larger portion :) than the others but it was enjoyed by all.

Something happened between the owners who were coming for their dogs and they were still there when we arrived. A Rescue coming from afar will be there to pick up the momma dog and newborns as well as another pregnant dog. Thank you so much for all the effort you have put forth for these guys and making the long distance drive (twiceJ) So that issue is taken care of.

The Hound girl is still there and of course still sweet as pie. Man, we hope someone comes for her soon.

We have a few new ones, Black Lab mix with a white patch on his chest and black spots. He appears to be NEUTERED! And he has a micro chip but disconnected phone numbers. He is a very good boy and believed to be someone’s “house dog” he was picked up in Loiusburg but chip reads he was from Brentwood, NC. There is a Yellow Lab mix girl who was owner surrendered and needs to find a home FAST. They had to surrender her as she was too much for them to handle. There is a female Husky mix puppy that is just adorable! She looks to be about 6 months old. She was owner surrendered so she too needs to find a home FAST.

Time is short for these guys so if you have any ideas jump on them fast. We are both swamped with other Rescue chores and work so any help you can offer would be ever so appreciated.
