🐾 Everybody, meet LEWEY! 🐾

Please help us welcome our newest little guy to the STBTR family!

Lewey is just 2 years old and came to us as an owner surrender. And y’all, this poor baby is a HOT MESS. ❤️

He’s itchy, he’s stinky, and his skin is in absolutely awful shape. 💔 We can only imagine how uncomfortable he must be.

But underneath all that? One SUPER sweet boy who deserves to feel good in his own skin again!

Lewey will be getting vetted this week, and we’ll know more about what we’re dealing with and how we can help him heal.

For now, he’s safe, he’s loved, and he’s officially part of the STBTR family. ❤️

Welcome to your fresh start, Lewey! We’re so glad you’re here.

Stay tuned for updates on this sweet boy. He’s got some healing to do, and we’ll be cheering him on every step of the way!

❤️ A WEEK AGO, WE WERE DROWNING. TODAY, WE CAN BREATHE AGAIN. ❤️

And it’s because of YOU.

A week ago, we were staring at thousands of dollars in unexpected veterinary bills. Miller needed surgery. Pearl was fighting for her life. And two little puppies, Tater and Tot, had been dumped and needed someone to step up.

We were overwhelmed, worried, and wondering how we were going to keep up.

So we did something that’s never easy.

We asked for help.

We asked you to give $5. Skip a coffee. Share a post. Tell a friend.

And y’all SHOWED UP.

❤️ TOGETHER, YOU RAISED OVER $4,000! ❤️

Some gave $5. Some gave more. Some shared every post. Some sent prayers and encouraging words.

And every single one of you made a difference.

You didn’t just help pay veterinary bills.

You gave Miller the chance to heal.
You helped us fight for Pearl when the odds were against her.
You made it possible for us to keep saying YES to the next dog who needs us.

And you reminded a group of exhausted rescue volunteers that we’re not doing this alone.

The needs haven’t stopped. We already have two more dogs coming into rescue with serious medical needs. One needs a leg amputated, and another has a severe skin condition.

That’s the reality of rescue. Just when you think you might catch your breath, another little life needs saving.

But because of YOU, today we can breathe a little easier.

To everyone who donated, shared, commented, prayed, or helped spread the word…

THANK YOU. From the bottom of our hearts.

You are the reason we can keep doing this.

It takes a village to rescue these dogs.

And goodness gracious, do we have one incredible village. ❤️🐾

☕❤️ IT’S $5 FRIDAY! FOUR DOGS. ONE VILLAGE. ONE BIG HEART! 🐾

We’ve shared their stories all week. Now we’re asking our village to show up!

In just THREE days, our rescue faced approximately $3,500 in unexpected veterinary expenses for Miller and Pearl.

🐾 MILLER came to us severely emaciated and needing serious medical care. He’s undergone surgery to remove an eye and a growth, along with being neutered. He made it through surgery, but his road to recovery is just beginning.

🐾 PEARL gave us quite the scare! After suddenly going into respiratory distress, two emergency vet visits, and hospitalization, we were told she had just a 40% chance of survival.

But yesterday, we got the news we’d been hoping for. Pearl was cleared to go home! ❤️ She’s still recovering, but we’re so grateful for this step forward.

And just when you think rescue might give you a minute to catch your breath…

🐾 MEET TATER & TOT!

Two little puppies who were DUMPED.

That’s right. While we’re working to get Miller and Pearl healthy, two more innocent little lives need our help.

They didn’t ask to be abandoned. They didn’t ask to become rescue dogs. But they’re here now, and they deserve a chance, too.

The need never stops. And neither does rescue.

❤️ TODAY’S $5 FRIDAY GOAL: $3,500 ❤️

☕ 100 people giving $5 = $500
🐾 300 people giving $5 = $1,500
❤️ 700 people giving $5 = $3,500!

Just $5 from 700 people would help us cover those unexpected medical bills, while we continue caring for dogs like Tater and Tot.

Maybe it’s the cost of your morning coffee. Maybe it’s a few dollars you weren’t planning to spend.

Whatever you can give, it matters.

❤️ DONATE: www.stbtr.org

Can’t donate? Please SHARE and challenge FIVE friends to give $5!

Because rescue isn’t one person doing everything.

It’s a whole lot of people doing a little.

Miller is healing. Pearl is fighting. Tater and Tot are getting their second chance.

And ALL of them are counting on us.

Let’s show these babies what a village can do! ❤️🐾

New kid in town!
Meet Rocky!
This handsome brindle guy is 3, neutered, super sweet and cuddly. He comes to us as an owner surrender who felt he needed more than they were able to provide.
Rocky is fostering in SA and we will update once we find out more about him.

❤️ PEARL HAS GOOD NEWS! 🐾

If you’ve been following our rescue this week, you know sweet Pearl has been fighting for her life.

After doing so well for the past month, everything changed Sunday.

Pearl went into respiratory distress, was rushed to TWO emergency vets, and ultimately hospitalized at Bay City Vet.

Her heartworm disease complicated everything, and at one point, we were told she had just a 40% chance of survival. 💔

BUT TODAY WE HAVE GOOD NEWS!

❤️ PEARL IS COMING HOME! ❤️

Anette is picking her up around 1 PM!

She’s not completely out of the woods. Her breathing still isn’t where the vets want it, although that’s expected for a while. She also hasn’t had a bowel movement since being hospitalized, so we’ll be watching that closely.

But she’s coming home, and that’s a HUGE victory!

If you know Pearl, you know she’s a little Frenchie with a BIG personality who loves snuggles, attention, and making everything about HER. 😂

Now she gets to continue healing surrounded by love.

But we still need our village!

Between Pearl’s emergency hospitalization and Miller’s surgeries, our rescue has faced approximately $3,500 in vet expenses in just THREE days.

🐾 TOMORROW IS $5 FRIDAY FOR MILLER & PEARL! 🐾

We’re asking everyone who can to give just $5.

☕ One coffee.
❤️ Five dollars.
🐾 Two dogs who deserve a second chance.

700 people giving $5 would raise $3,500!

Can’t donate? Please SHARE! Every share helps us reach someone who can.

❤️ Donate through the link in our bio!

Today we’re celebrating a little victory. Tomorrow, let’s come together and make a BIG difference!

🐾 MILLER SURVIVED. NOW HE NEEDS OUR HELP TO HEAL. ❤️

Yesterday, we introduced you to two very special dogs who have put our rescue’s resources to the test this week.

Today, we want you to meet Miller a little more closely.

Just look at this boy. 💔

Miller came into rescue severely emaciated, his little body showing just how much he’d already endured.

This week, he underwent surgery to remove an eye, was neutered, and had a growth removed.

He made it through surgery. But his journey is far from over.

Now comes the part that takes time, patience, nourishment, and continued veterinary care. Miller needs to regain his strength and learn what it feels like to be healthy, safe, and loved.

And while Miller is recovering, sweet Pearl is still facing her own critical medical battle.

Between these two dogs, our rescue has taken on approximately $3,500 in veterinary expenses in just three days.

That’s why we’re asking our village to come together for $5 FRIDAY FOR MILLER & PEARL!

☕ Think about it. Five dollars. Less than many of us spend on a coffee.

If 700 people each give $5, that’s $3,500 to help cover their care!

You don’t have to wait until Friday to make a difference.

❤️ Donate here: www.stbtr.org

And here’s our challenge for TODAY:

Will you SHARE Miller’s story and tag ONE friend who loves dogs as much as you do?

Because Miller doesn’t need one person to do everything.

He needs a whole lot of people willing to do a little.

Let’s give this sweet boy the second chance he’s been fighting for. 🐾❤️

The past few days have been incredibly difficult for our rescue.

In just THREE days, we’ve taken on approximately $3,500 in veterinary expenses to give two very special dogs the chance they deserve.

🐾 Miller is fighting for his second chance.

When Miller came to us, he was severely emaciated and in desperate need of medical care. Yesterday, he underwent surgery to remove an eye, was neutered, and had a growth removed.

He made it through surgery, but his recovery is only beginning. He now needs time, nourishment, and compassionate care to regain his strength and health.

🐾 Pearl is fighting to stay alive.

After doing beautifully for the past month, everything changed on Sunday.

Pearl suddenly went into respiratory distress. She was seen at TWO emergency veterinary hospitals before being hospitalized at Bay City Vet.

Her heartworm disease has complicated everything, despite the care and effort being given to save her.

As of this morning, Pearl is still not stable. Her estimated chance of survival is just 40%.

But Pearl is still fighting.

And as long as she is fighting, we are not ready to give up on her.

This is where our community can make a life-saving difference.

We’re launching a special $5 FRIDAY FOR MILLER & PEARL this week.

Our hope is that hundreds of people will come together to give just $5.

Five dollars may feel small on its own. But when many people give what they can, those small gifts become emergency care, surgery, hospitalization, medication, and hope.

You don’t have to wait until Friday to help. If you’re able to donate today, we would be incredibly grateful.

❤️ Donate here: https://stbtr.org/

And...they just keep coming.
Meet Tater and Tot.
Some awful being dumped these two in the woods, along with several others.
Only 5-6 months old, miserable with demodex mange, they are still the happiest kiddos ever.
They've seen the vet and are on the way to healing.
Special thanks to all who assisted in getting them to safety. Diane, Kay, Sharon, Tony, and the vet clinic who held and treated them so they wouldn't have to go to the shelter.
Best guess is Boston/Chi blends!
Once again, your donations help tremendously. Our website is
