Did You Know?

PLEASE REACH OUT TO RESCUES FOR YOUR NEXT WONDERFUL COMPANION

This is sweet, pregnant Daisy. An owner surrender. Unfortunately, she was not spayed and this was her 2nd pregnancy since March. She is 1½ years old. Our fosters provided her with a safe place to deliver her puppies, as it turned out, just one day after we rescued her. She nursed them well. She got spayed. And we were able to find loving homes for all of her puppies... and for little Daisy.

I share this story with you for many reasons:

1. This is what's happening in our local shelters and our local community. Pups who are not altered become pregnant and then are no longer wanted.

2. I encourage you to look at rescue organizations when you're looking for puppies and for older pups. We help dogs with medical issues get healthy, and then place them in loving homes. We make sure that those we adopt out are either spayed or neutered.

3. I encourage you not to support places that are selling puppies, particularly places that are selling from puppy mills —which is what is happening currently in New Hanover County.
