💔 We’re not okay. 💔
For the first time in a long time, we’re scared.
Our intake has been CLOSED for over a month.
Our June fundraiser — the Wine Walk — was just canceled unexpectedly.
And our donations? Non-existent. Last month we brought in less than $900 total through Facebook… and over 99% of that came from our amazing recurring donors. That means virtually no new donations are coming in.
To be blunt: we can’t sustain this.
Not even for the dogs currently in our program.
And thinking about what that could mean is absolutely heartbreaking.
This year, our intake is already down over 25% compared to this time last year. That means fewer lives saved, fewer dogs helped, and more heartbreak for everyone involved.
We know times are hard. The economy is rough, and everyone is stretched thin. But we’re begging — truly begging — for your help right now.
We have over 20,000 followers on Facebook.
If even half of you gave just $5, we could reopen our intake and have the support we need to get through the next few months. That’s one coffee. One fast food order. One small act of kindness that could literally save lives.
Please, help us:
❤️ Donate anything you can — even $1 makes a difference

Facebook buries posts like this unless they get engagement. So even if you can’t donate, you can still help in a big way just by clicking that heart, leaving a comment, or sharing with your friends and family.
This is us, being raw and real. We are not sugar-coating anything and trying everything we can to keep going — but we can’t do it without you.
We’re begging and groveling for your help. For the dogs. For the lives we haven’t saved yet. For the ones already in our care. Please consider a donation. If you are unable to donate, please comment below and share.
