Toaster was the first dog we rescued. When we first saw her at a house in Alabama, she was missing an eye and couldn’t walk on her front leg. Before we could let the person know we wanted to help her, he had already tried to put her down. So you can imagine our surprise when two days later, we saw her trotting down the road just as happy and bouncy as ever. We knew it was her because of her missing eye and limp.
When we talked to the guy, he said he wasn’t sure how she survived because he had shot her with a .22. We took her this time. After a visit to the vet, we learned her leg injury was from an old gunshot wound. With some care, her leg has healed and she can now walk on it. We have rehomed her to a loving home in Vermont.
Max’s story started when someone reported him to us, he was found starving and abandoned in a ditch. He was in rough shape, but it was clear from the beginning that he had the potential to be a sweet and loving dog.
After getting the medical care and attention he needed, Max began to thrive. His playful, goofy personality quickly came through, and he loved everyone he met. It didn’t take long for us to know he was ready for a fresh start.
We were thrilled when Max found his perfect match in Dothan, AL. He now lives with a wonderful family who has given him the love and stability he always deserved. Max is thriving in his new home, and we couldn’t be happier for him.
Patience’s journey began in the toughest of circumstances. We found this sweet puppy neglected on the side of the road, starving and showing signs of abuse. Despite everything he had been through, Patience still greeted us with a wagging tail and a hopeful heart.
This loyal, loving boy didn’t have to wait long to find his second chance. Someone in Ashford, AL opened her home to Patience, giving him the care and love he needed to heal and thrive. We couldn’t be more grateful for her kindness and for giving him the fresh start he so desperately deserved.
While hiking in the woods, we came across a dog who decided to join us. Remi, as he was named later, was very skinny and had a tumor on his side, but he was incredibly friendly and submissive.
We brought him to our rescue and started feeding him regularly. Over time, his tumor gradually disappeared, and he became a healthy, energetic dog.
We have rehomed Remi to someone in Franklin, GA. His journey from a stray in the woods to a beloved pet highlights the impact of care and attention.
Peanut was raised on a loving, all-natural homestead in Auburn, AL, Peanut grew up surrounded by little kids and various farm animals. His previous owners adored him but, unfortunately, didn’t have the time to train him to coexist peacefully with the farm animals.
After weeks of searching for a new home without success, Peanut’s owners made the decision to surrender him to our rescue organization. We were determined to find the perfect home for this sweet boy, and within just a few days, we did!
Peanut now lives with a wonderful couple in Birmingham, AL, who absolutely adore him. He has settled in beautifully and is thriving in his new environment.
Love’s story started when she was found as a stray, she was starving on the side of the road with 3 other dogs. She was especially afraid of men, likely due to past abuse, but her sweet nature still shone through.
A wonderful family in Five Points, AL started by fostering Love, giving her the time and patience she needed to heal. Over time, Love began to trust again, and it wasn’t long before she showed her true, affectionate side. The family quickly fell in love with Love and decided to make her a permanent part of their family.
Now, Love is thriving in her forever home. She’s found the safety and love she always needed, and her confidence continues to grow every day. We’re so grateful for that family, who gave her the chance to heal and become the happy, loving dog she is today.
