Doggie Detour Dog Rescue and Rehabilitation. Doggie Detour is a small independent rescue located in Upper Sandusky Ohio. One by one we will continue to save dogs.

Doggie Detour is a not for profit family run rescue and relies solely on adoption fees and donations from kind-hearted people to off set the cost of vetting and caring for the dogs in our care. Doggie Detour is a mission that grew from our love of dogs. We love all kinds of critters but there is no other animal that touches our heart quite like a dog does. Dogs are the most noble, forgiving, honest, non judging, and loving creatures ever put on this earth and their devotion to their family is endless. Wonderful dogs are dying everyday simply because there are not enough homes for them. The majority of the dogs we rescue are what we call at risk. Most often that means they are in a kill shelter and are at risk of being euthanized. We often take dogs that are hard to place sometimes that is due to age, breed, or behavioral issues. One by one we will neuter and vaccinate them. One by one we will find them loving homes

We are a Doggie Detour for the lost, forgotten, surrendered, used up, too big , too small, too old,won’t hunt, dumped, abused and unwanted . Our rescue hopes to be a short detour from near death to a loving forever home.

We want to thank Amanda for her donation towards the kitten's and their Momma, Destiny.
Kittens are being treated for ringworm and I'm told it could take 8 to 12 weeks.
We used 60mls of medicine on the kittens, in just one week, @ about $45.
Thank you Amanda for covering the upcoming week of their treatment.
They are about 5 weeks old now.

Thank you Monica Stansbery for your donation towards the cats.
So far we have Mom's spay and 1of her vaccination covered ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If anyone else can help, we still will need donations for the 4 babies. They will be neutered probably in Dec. each Spay/neuter is $60 at the clinic, vaccinines are $10 each so estimating $90 per cat.
If there is extra we will also microchip them.

Momma cat seems less terrified this afternoon. She came out about 4pm and ate everything in sight.
When I went up about 4:30pm she was in the tee-pee bed with 3 of her babies. The 4th baby woke up while I was up there so I popped him in with his family before I left.

We set up traps and caught the Momma at 2am.
We are unsure whether she is feral or just terrified after being trapped and brought inside.
We have been watching on the kitty cam, but she has been hiding and hasn't really interacted with her kittens yet.
Currently she is behind the heater, but it's starting to peek out at the kittens. Hopefully she will settle in as the day goes on.

We found 4 little kittens in an old doghouse while mowing today.
They are in the house now and have been fed and are currently cuddled up and sleeping.

The littliest one was kind of quiet so offered food by syringe and was interested.
Posting a few pictures, I will be cleaning them up in a little while, on I just didn't want to overwhelm them all at once.
They will all need to be vaccinated, wormed, and neutered. I'll be calling the Hope clinic tomorrow to schedule appts.
Donations are greatly appreciated.
