Thanks to our partners at Surry County Animal Control, we were able to rescue over 50 dogs and puppies from a cruelty case.

Many of these were pregnant mamas (8 litters were born!), nursing mamas, and small breed dogs.

These dogs will require medical treatment, fostering, and lots of volunteer time before they are ready for adoption.

In addition to our work on the cruelty case, our usual daily activities carried on. These included:

Multiple runs to rural shelters and transporting dogs to Saving Grace
Twice daily care, feeding and playtime of our dogs on the farm
Coordinating with our generous foster families for pickup of mamas and their puppies
Matchmaking by our adoption team to adopt out 83 dogs and puppies

Many thanks to our fantastic volunteers and foster families who keep our daily activities on schedule.

While all our dogs require love and daily care, many also need additional medical care.

Burberry, a sweet girl, arrived with this tumor. She’ll require costly surgery to remove it.
In addition, over 20 dogs started heartworm treatment.
