Interruption

🥕🥦 MONDAY WITH MOOSE: WE INTERRUPT THIS SERIES… 🥕🥦

🐾 Excuse me, everyone… Moose here.

I know we're supposed to be talking about finding the right dog for your family on Mondays, but…

WE INTERRUPT THIS SERIES WITH SOMETHING IMPORTANT.

Because rescue doesn't follow a schedule.

A few days ago, SAVeD Rescue was contacted by an incredible organization called The Karen's. They had been made aware of a family of dogs living in absolutely heartbreaking conditions. The situation was bad, and they needed help.

So what did SAVeD do?

We jumped into action.

We started moving some of our foster dogs around, made room, called in our village—and welcomed 16 puppies and their momma into SAVeD. ❤️

And let me tell you…

Momma is a ROCKSTAR. ⭐

Our veterinarian actually can't believe these puppies survived the conditions they came from.

Think about that for a minute.

Sixteen puppies.

Sixteen little lives that Momma somehow kept alive and cared for when she had so little to give, for 2 weeks.  

She didn't have a warm, clean bed.
She didn't have a stocked pantry.
She didn't have regular veterinary care.

She had sixteen babies depending on her…

…and she kept going.  

So, Momma, from all of us at SAVeD:

YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR. ❤️

And because every SAVeD puppy gets a theme so we can always remember where their journey began, this crew has officially been named…

🥕 THE VEGGIE TAILS! 🥕😂

Yes, we changed the spelling from Tales. We thought Tails was much more appropriate for this bunch!

But here's the part that isn't quite as cute as 16 puppy noses…

These babies have already been to the vet TWICE in just five days because of wounds and infections.

And this is only the beginning.

There will be more veterinary care.
More medications.
More vaccines.
More deworming.
More puppy supplies.
More unexpected expenses.

And with 16 puppies + Momma, even the NORMAL vetting for a litter this size is a big expense.

And when these babies are ready to start finding their forever homes, we're going to have another challenge…

WE NEED FOSTERS.

A LOT of them.

We simply won't have enough current foster homes to split these babies up when the time comes.

So if you've ever thought about fostering…

The Veggie Tails might be calling your name. 🥕🐾

And if you can't foster, there are still so many ways you can help.

Donate toward their care.
Share their story.
Send someone our way who might be able to foster, or adopt.
Follow their journey.
Cheer Momma on.

Because this is what rescue looks like.

Sometimes it's planned.

Sometimes it's 16 puppies and a Momma showing up at your door at 1:00 a.m.  and saying…

“Well… we need you.”

And SAVeD will always do everything we can to answer.

And remember… Dogs aren't Broken, they are just waiting to be SAVeD! 💚🐾
