Heyyyyy there is no p***s 🤭😂😂😂😂 Chief Walter is now Dolly.
Let me tell you something. The name fits. This girl is the sweetest, gentlest soul. She just wants to be touched and loved. After all the sh*tty, hateful humans she came across, Rosas Reyna was the first to show her kindness. And Nancy, she didn’t care about all the ticks on her. Dolly wanted loving so she held her and gave her love before jumping in the car to bring her here. I am looking forward to watching this little girl flourish! She is anemic from the ticks, she has infection in the ears and on her body from the ticks, but she is heartworm negative as of now, we know that can change in the next 6 months but we went ahead and got her Proheart12 and we will retest in 6 months! Her IDEXX4 came back negative across the board (yay) but we did the extra tick born disease test and will get those results in 4 weeks. She is tentatively on the schedule to be spayed in 4 weeks, hopefully her cbc comes back good and we can get her spayed. My worry is with her being around 9 months to a year… she could be pregnant. I’m certain we will have this girl transformed and ready for her spay day in 4 weeks though! Hopefully she can just relax, sleep, feel safe and EAT! 🩷

Thank you all so much for the support!

And Rosas well this lady gives her all to these dogs, day in and day out! Thank you for feeding him, thank you for networking him, thank you for going out and securing him and thank you for vaccinating, giving preventatives and bathing him so he will be flea/tick free when he arrives! Thank you for going above and beyond!

AND THANK YOU to everyone for the donations, food, monetary, driving, sharing etc. it takes a village. I do not say thank you enough, but just know I am so so so very grateful for each and every single one of you!

Calvin is coming alive, no more of the blank eyes, scared, gotta go gotta go gotta go look. He is choosing when to go outside and coming back inside when he is ready! And my favorite part is he is playful, the tail is up, curled and wagging! He has also started to play with the other dogs! 🥰

🐾 HAPPY NATIONAL DOG DAY! 🐾❤️

National Dog Day is a reminder to recognize the unconditional love, loyalty, companionship, and joy that dogs bring into our lives—and to shine a light on the millions of dogs still waiting for a family to call their own. 🏡🐾

For our furry family members, National Dog Day means more than extra treats and belly rubs. It means **being loved, protected, respected, cared for, and given the chance to simply be a dog.** It means understanding their needs, celebrating their quirks, providing enrichment and exercise, keeping them safe, and remembering that they depend on us for their entire lives.

And for the dogs still waiting in shelters, rescues, boarding facilities, and foster homes, today is a reminder that their day is coming, too.❤️

🐾 **Adopt when you can.
🐾 **Foster when you're able.
🐾 **Donate when you can’t foster.
🐾 **Share an adoptable dog.
🐾 **Advocate for the ones who have no voice.
🐾 **And love the dog beside you like they’re the greatest gift they are.

Because to a dog, you are their whole world.🌎❤️

Happy National Dog Day to every muddy-pawed, couch-stealing, tail-wagging, treat-loving, goofy, loyal, unforgettable dog out there! 🐕✨

**Today, let’s celebrate dogs—and help make sure every dog gets the love and forever home they deserve.** 🏡🐾

🧡🐾 You Can Save a Life Without Leaving Your Couch !
Just Click "SHARE." 🧡

Right now, shelters across the country are facing space crises. Behind every kennel door is a dog like the one in this photo—a loving animal hoping for a family. In 2025 alone, 4.2 million shelter pets were adopted, but nearly 600,000 animals were still euthanized 💔 because they ran out of time. Your voice can change that.

Social media advocacy is a powerful force. Sharing an adoptable pet's profile introduces them to people who may never visit a physical shelter. If just 1 out of 17 people planning to get a pet chose adoption instead of purchase, we could eliminate shelter overcrowding entirely. It’s not just a post; it’s a connection.

You have the power to bridge the gap. Please, take 1️⃣ minute and follow a local rescue or shelter. When you see an adoption profile, don't just "like" it—SHARE it. That one simple click can be the direct reason a dog finds their true forever home. Be their advocate today. 🐶🏠

Little Otis arrived at Big Paws K9 Foster House today thanks to our volunteer drivers! He is settling in, had short introductions to all the other dogs. Calvin seems to think we got him a puppy! 🤭🥰

I am excited to see what we learn about this handsome dude!

We did an initial vet visit last week and we have another scheduled for 3 weeks.

You can apply to adopt him, but he won’t be available to leave just yet.
