It's been a long time

We haven't posted in quite a while. A whole lot has happened and changed.

We've had sooooo many adoptions. We only have five dogs left in our adoption program and four kittens!! We've found homes for many of our courtesy listings as well. We've helped transport many owner surrender and shelter pulled dogs to new rescues that have room for them. We've assisted the community with vetting their pets and feeding them. We've had a lot of success.

That said, on October 1st, we lost $1000 a month that was coming in to keep the rescue going. The loss of a career that funded the rescue has been the end of it. While we certainly don't plan on closing the rescue altogether, we are no longer able to pull dogs from shelters or to foster them on the scale we have been doing for so many years.

We will still be helping with courtesy listings for owners that are able to foster their pets until homes or rescues can take them in. Some of our policies may need to be changed to support the new style the rescue will be operating in. We have put aside a part of our website that has low cost vet options for people in the middle Tennessee area.

We hope to continue the blog and use it to update everyone with the things we still are able to do to help out in our community. It will also be an area we can keep track of statistics and studies related to domestic pets. Please keep watching for the new information we will be posting!
