[Last Edit: imperfectlyperfect3][Edited]
I wanted to apologize for not being more active the past 3 days have been crazy busy , I am starting a new 3rd shift job to pay for rescue, my husband is to sole income and he takes in a lot , we take care of my mom and have 3 girls so if I want to keep rescue going I have to get a job, so I started working at night after the girls go to bed, I have had 3 meet and greet( none went well) I also moved 4 dogs out of Pendelton shelter into rescue , Saturday I have a huge adoption event at petsmart but it is only me and my oldest daughter I have no volunteers to help so it’s going to be crazy , and I am taking a new dog to a meet and greet and another to a foster after the event!! I am so thankful for everyone that is standing behind me and Semper Fi !! I promise to do better to be more active!! Everyone have a wonderful weekend!! Here are some of the pups I rescued the past few days !!

He is one of my hospice dogs lol he is 7 pounds and has a enlarged heart ❤️ And is in sooo much medicine, but I couldn’t let him die at the shelterSo he is my little Frankie lol he is much smaller than most of my others but I had a friend pass away (she was frinds with Mark also) and she ran a hospice rescue in Kentucky and when she passed I promised I would try to save seniors in shelter and give them a good last few months and not let them die alone and scared!! Definitely hurts finically but I want them all comfortable and in my arms when they meet her at the rainbow bridge 🌈 ❤️🐾❤️🐾🌈

@paddle3 I also have little Winnie she has no eyes and no teeth lol she has cancer and was willed to me when our friend passed , she left me 7 dogs when she passed and unfortunately most have gone to meet her at the bridge! Rocco is the other survivor and is in hospice with me!  
|
Evidently, some financial donations would help with Winnie and the other special needs animals, as well as for the others.  In the ask goatboy thread, I inquired if perhaps through ARF, measures might be possible when attaining membership/renewal, a small additional donation to SFDR be an option. SFDR could then be readily funded if say 1/4 contributed $1. |

We are working on getting some legal stuff set up to make sure everything is in order for things like that to happen, should it be considered and approved! |

I'd like to donate. Don't know if you have a means to do so. This is a tag for donation update. |

I see a "needs one" next to an item listed as last purchased today - does that mean it was "needs two" before that purchase? I see a simliar item with no "need this #" next to it, but only an Added date. I assume this hasn't been purchased yet. Do items fall off the list when the requested # are purchased? (can you tell I'm normally on the Buying Stuff for Me side of this?) |

Also, typo on the mention. I was underscore before __ was Derp. I'll text you when I have something solid to offer. |

    I have been helping rehome 15 low riders , dachshunds and mini pins, in Georgia, I will be transporting a few to Ohio this weekend! A lady I have helped with rescue in the past contacted me about a hoarding case near me, the woman is in the hospital and asked for help! We have about 15 little dogs , all scared and not use to people, I have been working rescue to find homes and placement for them to get them out of this cold wet weather !!  I will post more soon!! I’m so sorry it’s be absolutely hell to catch these guys to get good pictures!! |

I have to say, this is the first time I've ever heard certain types of dogs called "Low Riders." It fits.

I just sent some fundage through Venmo. Thanks for taking this on.
