Meet Zelda 👑

Zelda is one of EIGHTY chihuahua mixes surrendered to BARC through a hoarding situation. All were living outside in a backyard overflowing with trash. Our team knew we could only save one, so we went to meet as many as we could to see who would fit in with our pack. They were all timid and shivering in their kennels, snuggling each other for comfort.💔

Zelda immediately stood out. She hesitantly came forward for treats and pets and just had the sweetest face. Thanks to our friend saying YES to fostering, we were able to save her and start to show her what it’s like to be loved in a home. 🥹💙💚

Zelda is ~1Y and 12 lbs. She has thinning hair and crusty skin likely from a flea allergy. We will book her a spay and get her in shape and ready for a forever home. Stay tuned 🥰

If you can, please send a donation in Zelda’s name to help with her care. Anything helps!

Update - we found a foster for one of these babies!

🚨🚨 80 chihuahuas were surrendered to BARC yesterday through a hoarding situation. We have never seen anything quite like this. Almost every single dog is trembling in their kennel and terrified to move. They showed zero aggression and some were open to receiving love and treats. We would LOVE to help the shelter and tag one of them, but we need a committed foster that will be patient with them as they need serious decompression and TLC. Please dm if you’re interested!!! (4th of July is coming up, and we will be short on fosters, so we will need coverage then😘, please keep that in mind!)

Day in the life of working from home with a foster dog!! Fostering while working your day job requires some coordination, but it is not impossible 💙💚 it is so fulfilling and a lot of fun! It’s been great seeing Violet already make so much progress in training. I am jealous of her future adopters!!

With intake in full swing, we are looking to recruit more fosters into our community so we can save more dogs just like Miss Bradley and Violet!

What fostering actually looks like - from our team with a collective experience of fostering almost 250 dogs 💚💙

No perfect home required. No experience needed. Just a little space, a lot of heart, and the knowledge that you’ve got a whole team behind you!!

We cover vet care, food and supplies. You provide a safe space for a dog and keep them out of the shelter.

If you’ve ever thought about fostering but talked yourself out of it, this one’s for you. 💙💚

→ send a DM or visit link in bio to apply!!

This is what rescue looks like💙💚

It looks like the dogs who flinch when you reach for them. The ones who don’t know how to trust, how to rest, or how to believe they’re safe. It looks like our girls Violet and Miss B. Dogs carrying stories we’ll never fully know, but wounds we can see in the way they move through the world.

And so we do what rescue has always done. We show up. We stay. We move at their pace. We become their safe place.

We take in what the world has broken, neglected, abandoned, or forgotten, and we love it anyway. We love it patiently. We love it consistently. We love it until fear starts to make room for trust.

Not every scar disappears. Not every story gets rewritten overnight. But healing happens in the quiet moments. In the circles we make around them, the reassurance we give, and the promise that they won’t have to face the world alone anymore.

Our girls will be available for adoption really soon, so keep an eye out for their applications!

Since Violet and Miss Bradley are Caro’s Canines Rescue’s very first intakes, we wanted to post a reminder about the 3-3-3 rule for rescue dogs 💙💚

If you’ve ever fostered a dog who wouldn’t eat, drink, or even look at you in those first few days, it can feel really defeating. We have been there!

But, the 3-3-3 rule is a good reminder that decompression is key and all dogs will have their own process. A general guideline is 3 days to feel safe, 3 weeks to find a routine and 3 months to finally become themselves.

Violet and Miss B are already starting to come out of their shells, and we couldn’t be happier!!

Follow along as Violet and Miss Bradley find their footing!! Of their stories makes you want to open your home to a dog who just needs a little time, foster applications are open at caroscanines.com. 💙💚
