Wet Noses Animal Rescue

We are a Foster based rescue in Blue Ridge, GA that pulls animals from high kill-shelters throughout the state and finds them loving homes.

Wet Noses Animal Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit headquartered in Blue Ridge, Georgia. Founded in 2020 by Abe and Tracey Abrams, we are a foster based rescue that pulls animals from high kill-shelters in the Atlanta area and find them loving homes. While we have a variety of breeds, ages, and sizes, we focus on senior, special needs, small dogs, and puppies. We rely on a volunteer network to help w

ith our lifesaving work. Volunteers provide transportation (aka Freedom Rides) from county animal shelters to the rescue. Once an animal arrives, they receive full medical care, a lot of love, and behavioral support as they adjust to their foster home.

🌺🌸🩷 $5 FRIDAY FOR BIXIE!!!🩷🌸🌺

🥹💔 SHE’S HAD HER FIRST SURGERY… NOW SHE NEEDS US FOR THE NEXT ONE! 💔🥹

Look at that sweet face! 🥹❤️

Bixie’s first luxating patella surgery is DONE! 🎉🐾

But this little girl still has a long road ahead. Her second back leg also needs surgery, bringing her total surgical estimate to $7,238 — $3,619 per leg.

And after each surgery comes 6 weeks of rehabilitation. ❤️‍🩹

Bixie is just ONE of the 40+ dogs we have rescued from this horrific hoarding case. We couldn’t leave her behind… but now our veterinary bills are overwhelming. 💔

So today, we’re asking our rescue family for a little help:

💙 JUST $5 FOR BIXIE. 💙

$5 may not seem like much… but when everyone who can gives $5, it adds up to lifesaving care. 🐾

$5️⃣ = A step closer
$10 = A little more healing
$25 = A bigger step forward
$50 = A HUGE help

Our goal is to get Bixie through both surgeries and rehab so she can finally run, play, and live the happy, pain-free life she deserves. ❤️🐾

Bixie is a 1-year-old Cavalier/Terrier mix, about 13–14 pounds, and she LOVES other dogs. In fact, other dogs may be her favorite toys. 😂🐶

She can be timid with new people and situations, but once she feels safe, her beautiful personality shines. She’s also been good with cats. ❤️

🏡 Bixie is available for foster or foster-to-adopt!
She needs a fenced yard and another playful dog.

🙏 PLEASE GIVE $5 FOR BIXIE TODAY.

And if you can’t donate, PLEASE SHARE HER STORY.
Your share could be what gets her seen by her future family. ❤️

🌸🌺 LYLA UPDATE!!! SHE’S READY FOR HER FOREVER FAMILY! 🌺🌸

Remember our beautiful little Lyla from the hoarding case? 🥹💗

This shy little girl has come SO FAR! And now we’re thrilled to say…

🩷 Lyla had her luxating patella surgery and has officially completed her 6 WEEKS of recovery! 🩷

She’s healed. She’s ready. And now all she needs is YOU. 🏡💕

Lyla is about 1 year old and just 14 pounds of pure sweetness! She’s a Cavalier King Charles/Poodle/Terrier mix and, like so many of the dogs from this heartbreaking hoarding situation, she didn’t grow up knowing what it felt like to be loved, held, comforted, and truly safe.

She’s still a little shy and unsure when she first meets you… but once Lyla trusts you, she melts into the sweetest little cuddle bug. 🥹❤️

She doesn’t need someone to rush her.

She doesn’t need someone to “fix” her.

She needs someone who will give her time. Someone gentle and patient who will let her discover that the world can be a beautiful place—and that she finally has a family who will never let her down. 🌸

✨ Her surgery is behind her.
✨ Her recovery is complete.
✨ Her new life is waiting.

After everything Lyla has been through, we want her next chapter to be the BEST one yet. 💕🐾

Could YOU be the person she’s been waiting for?

Please share Lyla. Her forever family could be out there right now—and they just need to see her. 💗

🥹💔 BIXIE NEEDS US — TWO SURGERIES, ONE VERY SPECIAL GIRL 💔🥹

Bixie is going into surgery at a specialist in Atlanta, and her estimated cost is $3,619 to repair BOTH back legs. She has luxating patellas in both knees, and unfortunately, she can only have one leg repaired at a time—so this will be a several-month journey for this sweet girl♥️

And then comes 6 weeks of rehab. ❤️‍🩹

Bixie came to us from the horrific hoarding case where we have now taken in OVER 40 dogs. She is a Cavalier/Terrier mix who is playful, sweet, and absolutely LOVES other dogs. She is a year old and weighs about 13-14 pounds♥️

She needs a fenced yard and another playful dog in her future home. She will stay outside playing as long as the weather allows—and I’ve literally had to go get her out of the rain because she was too busy running and wandering around with her buddies. 😂🐾

She likes toys… but other dogs are definitely her favorite toys. 😂

Bixie can be timid and scared when faced with new people, places or situations. But once she settles in, her personality comes shining through. She has been good with the cats here. She has not been around children, so we don’t know how she would do with them.

She is still learning that running directly between your feet at full speed is perhaps not the best life choice 😂, so we think a middle-aged home may be a good fit.

💙 Bixie is available for foster or foster-to-adopt!
Someone willing to take this journey with her could give her an incredible second chance while she completes her surgeries and rehab.

🙏 NOW WE NEED YOUR HELP

Her first surgery is happening NOW, and the estimate is $3,619.

After taking in more than 40 dogs from this one hoarding case, our veterinary bills continue to climb. But we couldn’t leave Bixie behind—and now we need our rescue family to help us get her through this.

Every $5, $10, $25 or $50 donation gets Bixie one step closer to running pain-free. 🐾❤️

If you can’t donate, PLEASE SHARE.
Sometimes her person—or the person willing to help save her—sees her because YOU shared her story.

😭💔 1,000 DAYS. OVER TWO YEARS IN RESCUE. ZERO APPLICATIONS. 💔😭

How is this possible? 😭

🩵💙 MEET PILOT 💙🩵
✨ Still waiting for someone to finally choose him. ✨

Pilot has spent 1,000 days of his life in rescue.

He came to us as a desperately sick puppy after contracting parvo. He spent an entire MONTH at the vet fighting for his life. He battled pneumonia. He battled sepsis.

And somehow… this boy never gave up. 💙

He fought his way back.

Today, Pilot is healthy, happy, thriving—and still waiting.

No applications.
No family coming for him.
Just 1,000 days of hoping that someday, someone will see him and say…

“That’s my dog.” 💔

Pilot is an adventurous, playful mixed breed who loves to RUN, explore, play with his foster siblings, and soak up every bit of life. He also makes plenty of time for kisses, belly rubs, and cuddles with his foster mom. 🥰

He would make an AMAZING hiking or camping buddy and would love an active person who wants a four-legged partner in crime. 🏕️🥾🐾

✔️ Dog-friendly
✔️ Loves to play
✔️ Loves to snuggle
✔️ Would thrive with a fenced yard
✔️ Would LOVE a dog sibling
✔️ DOB: 07/03/2023

Pilot can be a little shy when meeting new people. He just needs a little patience and time to feel comfortable.

But once he trusts you?

You’ll discover one incredibly special boy. 🩵

He has already fought so hard for his life.

Isn’t it time he finally got to LIVE it with a family of his own? 😭💙

📍 Wet Noses Animal Rescue

📞 770-365-6945

Please don’t let Pilot spend another 1,000 days waiting. 💔

💔🥹🥹MEET TAFFY… AND JUST LOOK AT ALL THAT HAIR! 🥹🥹💔

Taffy is another precious soul we rescued from the hoarding case that has completely broken our hearts.

We have now taken in OVER 40 DOGS from this ONE situation. 😭💔

These dogs lived outside. They weren’t petted. They weren’t held. They didn’t know what it felt like to be comforted, loved, or told they were safe.

When Taffy first arrived, she was absolutely terrified and incredibly timid. We didn’t rush her. You don’t want to do anything to further traumatize them even if they need grooming. We gave her the time and space she needed to decompress and figure things out for herself.

And slowly… she started letting us in. ❤️

✨ TAFFY
🐾 Approx. 2 years old
🐾 Cavalier/Terrier mix
🐾 Loves to play
🐾 Good with other dogs
🐾 Still very timid, especially with new people
🐾 Needs a fenced yard
🐾 Needs another small, playful dog in her forever home

And now for the REALLY important part…

😂 TAFFY NEEDS A GROOMER! 😂✂️

She is ALLLLLLL HAIR! Seriously… ALL OF IT! 🤣

We desperately need a volunteer groomer willing to help Taffy (and potentially some of the other dogs from this case) get cleaned up, comfortable, and feeling like the beautiful little girl she is.

✂️❤️ If you are a groomer who can volunteer your time, PLEASE message us or call us! We would be incredibly grateful.

Taffy has spent enough of her life without love.

Now she deserves to learn just how wonderful life can be. 🥹❤️

Please share Taffy. Her forever family is out there. 🐾❤️

✨⭐️💚💙 IT’S 5 FRIDAY!!! 💙💚⭐️✨

It’s $5 Friday at Wet Noses Animal Rescue! 🐶🐱

Five dollars might not seem like much… but when our rescue family comes together, $5 from each of you can make a HUGE difference. ❤️

Our vet bills, food, medications, surgeries, vaccines, transport and everyday care continue to add up as we take in dogs who desperately need us. We never want finances to be the reason we say no to an animal in need. 🥺🐾

So today, if you can spare just $5, please consider sending it our way. And if you can’t donate, SHARE this post! Sharing costs nothing and can help us reach someone who can. ❤️

Every $5 helps us save another life.
Every share helps us reach another person.
Together, we can keep saying YES. 🐾

💙 $5 Friday — because little donations can make BIG rescues possible! 💙

Thank you for always standing beside Wet Noses and the dogs who have nowhere else to turn. 🥹🐾

✨✨⭐️FREEDOM RIDE⭐️✨✨

💙MEET MUGSY — LEARNING THAT HE IS SAFE💙

When Mugsy first arrived, he was so terrified that we couldn’t even touch him. But we never force interactions when a dog isn’t ready. We let them set the pace, decompress, and discover that they are safe on their own terms.

And Mugsy has been doing just that. 💙

Mugsy was surrendered to animal control and came to us understandably scared and a little grumpy. He’s unsure about toddlers, and after living with 2-year-olds who were simply too overwhelming for him, his family felt that finding him a new home was the best decision for everyone’s safety and well-being.

Right now, Mugsy needs an experienced Frenchie person who understands the breed, has patience, and has no children in the home. We’re still learning about him and don’t yet know how he will do with other dogs. He may ultimately need to be the only dog, but neutering, time, decompression, and getting to know him will help us determine that.

For now, Mugsy is getting exactly what he needs: time. ❤️

No pressure. No forcing. Just a safe place, patience, and as much spoiling as he allows us to do while he learns that people can be trusted.

If you’d like to donate toward Mugsy’s care while he decompresses and gets the veterinary care he needs, a donation link is provided below. Every little bit helps. 🐾❤️

📍 Apply now: WetNosesAnimalRescue.org
📞 Questions: 770-365-6945

Please share Mugsy. His perfect person could be just one share away. 🐾💗
