🐾💙 34 LIVES SAVED. 34 SECOND CHANCES. 💙🐾

Yesterday, October 13, 2026, something extraordinary happened in Hickman County.

Through an incredible coordinated effort, 34 dogs were rescued from heartbreaking conditions and brought to safety.

This rescue was physically exhausting, emotionally overwhelming, and something none of us will soon forget. Today, our volunteers and rescue partners are taking a moment to catch their breath, process what we experienced, and recover from an incredibly difficult day.

But we couldn’t let another moment pass without acknowledging the people who made this possible.

❤️ Mikaela's Mutt Motel, the Hickman County Sheriff's Office, Global K9 Protection Services, Supreme Canine, and our dedicated Hickman Humane Society volunteers, along with the countless individuals and organizations working tirelessly behind the scenes to secure safe placement, offer guidance, coordinate resources, and help make this rescue a reality.

This was not the work of one person or one organization. It took a village, and that village showed up.

To each and every person who played a role, whether on the ground or behind the scenes, THANK YOU. ❤️

These 32 dogs are now safe, but their journey is far from over. They have significant medical and recovery needs ahead of them, and we will need our community’s support to help give them the futures they deserve.

We will be sharing their stories, updates, and ways YOU can help very soon, including opportunities to donate, provide much-needed supplies, and open your home to foster.

For now, we simply want to recognize what was accomplished when compassionate people came together for animals who desperately needed someone to fight for them.

🐾 32 lives saved. 32 second chances. And a community that made it possible.

From all of us at Hickman Humane Society, thank you. 💙

🚨 WE NEED YOUR HELP! 🚨

This sweet girl is only 8 months old and is already facing a major surgery. 💔🐾

Her hip has been dislocated for over two weeks, and unfortunately, she now needs FHO (Femoral Head Ostectomy) surgery to give her the best chance at living a comfortable, pain-free life.

Her surgery alone will cost approximately $1,000, and that does not include her routine vetting, medications, follow-up care, or anything else she may need during recovery.

She is just a baby with her whole life ahead of her, and we want to give her every opportunity to run, play, and enjoy that life without constant pain. ❤️

🙏 We are asking our community to help us raise the funds for her surgery and medical care. No donation is too small—$5, $10, $20… it all adds up!

❤️ DONATE HERE:

And there’s one more thing this sweet girl needs… a NAME! 🥰🐾

Drop your name suggestions in the comments! Let’s give this beautiful girl a name as special as she is while we come together to get her the surgery she desperately needs.

If you aren’t able to donate, please share this post. Sometimes a share is just as valuable because it helps us reach someone who can help.

Every dollar donated toward her care helps us continue saying YES when an animal desperately needs us.

❤️ Donate. Share. Suggest a name. Help us get this sweet girl back on all four paws!

REMINDER: PRE-REGISTRATION ENDS TONIGHT 10/7 AT 11:59 PM

Pre-register at https://bit.ly/HHSRabies for our fall Rabies Clinic.

The clinic will be held Saturday, October 10 from 10 AM–1 PM at the Hickman County Ag Pavilion.

We will accept cash and credit/debit card payments at the clinic. Card payments will be processed through Zeffy.

There will be a VERY limited number of FREE DA2PP vaccines for dogs and FVRCP vaccines for cats available for Hickman County residents’ pets.

Free vaccines cannot be reserved or guaranteed through online pre-registration. They will be available at check-in on a first come, first served basis. This helps keep them accessible to pet owners who may not have internet access or a debit/credit card to pre-register online.

If you would like to pre-register and hope to receive a free DA2PP/FVRCP vaccine, choose the pre-registration package that includes everything else you want for your pet without the DA2PP/FVRCP vaccine.

For example, if your dog needs a rabies vaccine, DA2PP vaccine and deworming, but you would like to try for a free DA2PP vaccine, pre-register for Rabies + Deworming.
When you check in on Saturday, let the registration volunteer know you would like a free DA2PP or FVRCP vaccine for your pet.

If a free vaccine is still available, the volunteer will add it to your pet’s form. If the free vaccines have already been claimed, you may add the DA2PP/FVRCP vaccine at check-in for $10 per pet.

Pre-registering does NOT guarantee that a free vaccine will be available when you arrive. Pre-registering simply helps make check-in quicker because your pet’s information and paperwork will already be prepared.

Other clinic services:
• Rabies Vaccine — $10
• DA2PP Vaccine for Dogs / FVRCP Vaccine for Cats — $10
• Microchip — $20
• Deworming — $5

Pre-registration purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable, except in circumstances approved by Hickman Humane Society.

DOGS MUST BE ON A LEASH AND CATS MUST BE SECURED IN CARRIERS AT ALL TIMES.

Pre-registration closes TONIGHT at 11:59 PM:

🚨 URGENT — 5 SHEPHERDS FROM CRUELTY CASE STILL IN BOARDING & NEED HOMES! 🚨

These five beautiful, sweet German Shepherds were rescued from an animal cruelty case and have now been living in boarding for almost THREE MONTHS. 💔

We finally have some good news — the case is moving forward to the Grand Jury! 🙌 Unfortunately, the court process takes time, and that isn’t fair to these dogs who continue to wait in boarding.

To make things even more urgent, one of the boarding facilities caring for them will be closing for a month, and these dogs need to be moved into homes ASAP!

🏡 WE ARE LOOKING FOR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT HOMES!

Hickman Humane Society covers ALL expenses while they are in foster care — food, monthly preventatives, veterinary care and other necessary expenses.

Once the dogs are awarded to Hickman Humane Society through the court, their foster families will have the opportunity to officially adopt them. Adoption fee is $300.

❤️ ROMEO — 1 year old
Loves all people and is great with kids! Very playful and great with other dogs. Romeo is heartworm positive and currently on treatment.

💙 TANGO — 4 years old
Loves EVERYONE! A big sweetheart who is super smart and listens well. Tango needs to be the only pet in his home. He is heartworm positive and currently on treatment.

🎾 LUNA — 3-year-old female
Good with other dogs and needs a home with children 10 and older. She loves playing ball and LOVES to swim! 💦

🥰 BEANS — 3 years old
LOVES all people, is great with kids and good with other dogs. Just a big, lovable sweetheart!

💛 BANJO — 5 years old
A mellow, low-key guy who is good with other dogs. We’d prefer older children for Banjo — not because he isn’t good with kids, but because he’s a laid-back guy who just wants to chill and enjoy the quiet life.

🐾 ABOUT HEARTWORM TREATMENT:
Romeo and Tango have been on the slow-kill heartworm protocol, which Hickman Humane Society provides and pays for. Once they are in foster homes where they can reliably be brought to veterinary appointments, we can switch them to fast-kill treatment if the foster/adopter would like.

Both boys will remain HHS fosters until they are completely cleared of heartworms so their future adopters are not burdened with the additional medical expenses.

💔 Almost three months in boarding is too long.

These dogs have already been through enough. They deserve couches, yards, families and the chance to finally experience what living in a loving home feels like.

Fostering costs you nothing. HHS supplies what they need — you supply the home and the love. ❤️

📝 PLEASE FILL OUT A HICKMAN HUMANE SOCIETY FOSTER APPLICATION TODAY! 👉 https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/HCTN/Dog

If you can’t foster, PLEASE SHARE! We need to get all five of these dogs out of boarding and into homes ASAP. 🐾❤️

🚨 FOSTER-TO-ADOPT ALERT — CHANCE NEEDS A HOME! 🐾❤️

Chance has been living in boarding ever since he was rescued from an animal cruelty/hoarding case back in June. After everything he’s been through, this sweet boy deserves to know what it feels like to have a home and a couch of his own.

Chance is a 5-year-old Beagle mix who absolutely loves people and does great with other dogs. He’s a laid-back, lovable couch potato who would be perfectly happy hanging out with his person and enjoying the good life.

And yes… Chance is currently carrying a few extra pounds. 😂 He’s been on a diet and is working on getting his summer body back!

Unfortunately, Chance is heartworm positive and is currently undergoing the slow-kill heartworm treatment protocol. Because of this, we are looking for a special foster-to-adopt home for him.

❤️ Hickman Humane Society will cover ALL expenses related to Chance’s care until he is cleared of heartworms. Once he is heartworm negative, his adoption can officially be finalized.

🏡 Chance’s ideal home:
• Loves a good couch potato
• Has a fenced yard — this is important!
• Doesn’t mind a Beagle nose that sometimes has BIG ideas 😂
• Wants a friendly, easygoing companion
• Other dogs are welcome!

Chance is a Beagle mix, and when that nose catches the scent of a squirrel, rabbit, or other little critter, his brain may temporarily forget that he has a family. 😂 A securely fenced yard will help keep this curious boy safe.

Chance has already spent months in boarding. We would LOVE to get him into a home where he can finish his heartworm treatment.

You provide the home and the love. We’ll provide his medical care until he’s heartworm-free. ❤️

Please share and help us find Chance the foster-to-adopt family he’s been waiting for! 🐾
