As a woman-founded organization and a female dominated volunteer rescue organization, we admire all the women that choose to do the hard and holy things. Not just on International Women’s Day, but all the days in-between. Whether in animal work or trying to move mountains in other ways, we see you too 🙌🏻 #internationalwomensday @sweetrescuechik #Repost @whiteloftstudio ・・・ This could not resonate with me more. This is a tough message to instill in a 12yo girl but man, I’m working on it. #livealifeofworth
Sweet POOH is an older gentleman who still has an appetite for life and anything else he can eat! Pooh may have no teeth but that doesn't stop him from munching on all his favorite foods. His current favorites include eggs, cheese, peanut butter and ground turkey but we are pretty certain he would love to expand his food experiences! Pooh is also totally blind, but that won't stop him from trying to explore. Please no stairs, stair sliding is not on his activity list. He loves to be snuggled in nice warm blankets and he's very tolerant of his big foster brothers sniffing and checking him out. Pooh is sweet and loving, curious and very silly. He may have a few extra years on him, but this guy would still make a great companion to someone who has a big heart and the time to give him endless love. Pooh is fostered in Massachusetts and can be adopted anywhere in New England ❤️ Adopting a pup like Pooh, is the true essence of rescue. Website link is in our profile URL for adoption application. 📸: @amberbruski #teampooh
Petey is a 6 month old, 20 pound, Collie mix rescued in Mississippi and we estimate that he will be a medium-sized dog when full grown. This pup has arrived to Massachusetts and is looking for his Forever anywhere in New England. The full grown size of any of our dogs is an estimation based on a visual determination of their breed mix. Though occasionally we do end up with a purebred surrender, our adopters will tell you that our southern mutts are the best dogs they've ever had! Petey is doing fantastic in foster - already besties with the resident dog. He loves to play, is learning about cats, and is well on his way with housebreaking. Petey is going to make somebody a great little sidekick. To adopt Petey, find our website link in profile URL to fill out an application. 📸: @emilyobrienphoto
