Alright Dog Loven Friends! Please share, share, share!
‼️We have an estimated total of what it will cost to help get Lazarus his surgeries that he needs to repair his broken legs and hip! The doc is hoping that once he has his first surgery (the leg that is the worst and hip on same side) that he will not have to have the second 🙏
We set his fundraising goal for 10,000 and yes that is a lot of money, but we are hopeful that we have a great community of dog lovers that will help support us and him! If he only needs one surgery, then that amount will be cut in half, but we will not know that until he can heal from the first one.
We are putting the link to our Zeffy fundraiser that will be just for him, and all funds will go to ensure that he has the bright, pain free future that he deserves. If you would like to send in a donation another way, please reach out.
Thank you all for the support!

We need your help!!! Lazarus needs surgery to get his second chance. Your gift today helps cover his operation, pain management, and safe recovery at Ripple’s…

We need to find Sally a foster home ASAP! With temps dropping and it getting closer to even colder temps she will struggle in an outdoor kennel. Half of her hair is missing from the neglect she faced so she gets cold easily. She goes to her first vet appointment on Tuesday (the 20th)where she will get her vaccinations, get HW checked, and her skin accessed. Once we get her spay appointment she will more than likely have to have a lot of teeth pulled in the same appointment.
Right now her ideal foster home/adoptive home would have no other pets as she is very unsure of other dogs right now and we haven't tested her with cats. She absolutely loves people, met a 10 yr old child and loved him, walks SO well on a leash, doesn't like to potty in her outdoor kennel, and prefers to just lounge around. She would thrive in a home with a retired couple as she doesn't have any pep in her step since she is much older!

Every adoption is worth celebrating! We're working to keep track of all of our metrics to be able to see our wins (and learnings), figured we would share along the way!

So far in 2026, Ripple’s Rescue has helped 50+ dogs find their forever homes! These are true adoptions. This doesn't count the endless number of dogs we help in sharing posts, providing food, or flea/tick/de-worming treatments. We have grown our foster base in huge ways this year, having around 20 dogs in foster homes at this very moment. We will do another post just talking about our amazing volunteer and foster support. 🐕🥹

Behind every adoption are vet appointments, transportation, daily care, applications, meet-and-greets, social media posts, and a whole lot of love.

We’re a small rescue, but every dog who finds a home is a big deal to us. Thank you to everyone who helps make these happy endings possible, we're grateful for this community!

A few hours outside of a kennel might not sound like much, but for a rescue dog, it can mean everything. ❤️

A car ride, a walk, a nap on someone’s couch, or just some quiet time away from the noise can give a dog a much-needed break.

That’s why we love our Pupventures! You don’t have to foster for weeks or months to make a difference. Even one afternoon can help.

Interested in taking a rescue dog on a little adventure, or coming to visit? Reach out!

Update! Someone reached out to us about volunteering his time 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Looking for a local concrete company to come pour our pad (Overton Co, TN). Then we need a concrete finisher to help get it smoothed out.
We can pay for both services but if someone is out there that is willing to donate the concrete or the labor we would SO appreciate it!

‼️‼️ We are in NEED of a new foster home for Lazarus!
His current foster mom is having a lot of health issues and she has been in and out of the hospital.
Update on Lazarus! He not only has two broken legs but we discovered today, while at his orthopedic visit, that he also has a broken hip. We don't have his quote yet on a treatment plan but what we do know is his muscle atrophy is severe and he needs at home physical therapy.
‼️For a new foster..... He is extremely sweet, he is still having accidents in the house from time to time, he did great when he met a 10 yr old child, he is great with other dogs, and besides all his trauma he is loving life.
Even at the vets office they talked about how sweet he was even after going through all this.
‼️ His physical therapy is an easy task that needs to be done 3-4 times a day for a few minutes each time.
The ideal new foster would be willing to foster him through his upcoming surgeries and be ok with keeping him for an extended amount of time. Yes, we know this is asking a lot but he can't go to kennel life! He needs a home to help him rehab so he can live the best life possible.
‼️New foster home would need to be local....Clay, Overton, Putnam, Sparta area would be best but we can work with a new foster especially if they are able to get him to and from his appointments in Sparta.
Please share this and please help us find a foster for him!
