We were able to save little IRIS 🩷. This puppy came from the house of horrors on the news last week ⬇️ (DISCLAIMER: the below news story could be very upsetting)

Iris will not be posted for adoption. A very trusted friend reached out to us this weekend and knew of the perfect home for her. This family lost multiple senior rescue Danes over the last 12 months and their hearts needed another rescue Dane baby.

Though she had start to life I shutter to imagine and is battling a pretty nasty upper respiratory infection right now the future is nothing but roses 🌹for this girl! See her video in comments.

If you like what we do, we can always always use your help.

Our GRACIE girl is headed to her forever family in New England! For obvious reasons, they have been counting down the days to her arrival. Thank you to Tiffany & John for fostering! You can write happy tails like Gracie’s. All you have to do is be willing to temporarily open your heart & home to a foster pup. We do the rest!

MEMPHIS is here at for her oncology appointment with Dr. Johnson. Everyone at the clinic is loving on her big time, because how can you not? Please send her positive vibes as we navigate this cancer journey.

The itty bitty pittie committee got to go visit Dr. Monica, Cindy, and all their friends at ! IZZY got her final exam and health certificate while MEMPHIS had her sutures removed. She is all healed up from her big surgery. Both girls acted like the angels they are and enjoyed their yummy cookies at the clinic.

Happy Welcome Wednesday to GRACIE! Gracie joined the pack about a week ago after a fellow rescuer contacted us to see if we possibly had a foster home available. After meeting her and learning that she is amazing with dogs, kitties, AND very young children how could we say no? Gracie is 2 years old and 40 lbs of tricolored pocket perfection!

Sometimes in rescue doing what makes sense flies out the window and the overwhelming need to do what’s right to save a single special life takes over. Memphis is just that.

Memphis was surrendered by her owner to Memphis Animal Services and the stated reason was “owner’s health.” What about HER health?

This dog is said to be 14 years old, not spayed, heartworm positive, and has a tumor the size of a tennis ball in a tube sock hanging down from her abdomen on top of many other smaller masses.

I cannot imagine how uncomfortable it is walking with that weight swinging to and fro, pulling her delicate mammary tissue. How can someone let their companion get to this condition?

My heart just broke for her. I didn’t have time to think about not being able to afford taking on a dog like this. I just had to jump into action for her.
 Memphis is now a Woof River girl. She needs lots of help. Woof River needs lots of help. Will you help us get her the surgery she needs? 🙏
