More than 6 million unwanted, abandoned or lost animals enter shelters across the country every year. While some are lucky enough to be adopted into loving homes, there are far more animals in need of a family than there are kind people willing to foster and adopt them. Fostering not only helps one animal in need, but it makes room for more animals waiting for help.

These two young shepherd mixes, believed to be mother and son, are just a few of the animals we are notified about on a daily basis needing rescue. We can only help an animal in need when we have an available foster caregiver - someone who is willing to open their heart and home to help save a life. Someone who has love to give and a safe place for an animal to rest their weary heard. Sometimes, it may be the first time the animal has felt the safety of a home, the comfort of a bed, the content of knowing where their next meal will come from. You can help them become a beloved family pet. You can help them on their journey and learn how to be a dog. Help them feel love and the gentle caress of human touch. You can be their hero. Learn how at www.RescueCrew.org

Meet Phoebe, a 10+ year old Rat Terrier who came to us in February from a local impound. From her presentation in the shelter, it was clear she hadn't been well cared for. She was a mess, but we didn't care and her foster momman thinks she is cute as a button (and so do we). When she came into The Rescue Crew, we didn't realize just how poor her condition was. She had severe dental disease and couldn't eat kibble, multiple mammary masses, didn't seem comfortable and would pace incessently, she had mature cataracts and no vision at all in her left eye, which was painful to her, and she's essentially had lost most of her hearing. But, even though she can't hear and can only see out of one eye, she's a super special girl who now gets around great! Her sense of smell is still really awesome and that helps her a lot! We thought, early on, that she had given up and her time was coming to an end, but we were wrong. We've done as much as we can for her medically, and now she lives in comfort and love with her family and multiple furry canine friends. She will remain a beloved family pet, and a part of The Rescue Crew family, for as long as her quality of life is good - and today her life is very good. And when the time comes, she will know she was loved. Consider becoming a foster for a hospice dog. Can it be heartbreaking? Ultimately yes. But the time you can provide to these often overlooked of and disposed of animals will fill your heart more than you can imagine.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF BOB, THE BELOVED.
Bob came to us last September as a hospice case due to humane neglect. He was withheld food and water and as a result was in kidney failure. We always do what we can to help medical-needs animals and we knew we had the absolute perfect home for Bob. We just didn’t know how long we would have with him. We were hoping the kidney failure might be reversible. Sadly, it wasn’t. He had the best of care – weekly fluids, regular blood pressure checks, meeting with a nutritionist and on a special diet, and love beyond belief from his momma and fur sister Rosie Mae. Bob also suffered from bloat earlier this year – a life threatening situation, but we got him through the dangerous surgery and gave him more time. For the longest period you would’ve never known he was sick. His zest for life was bigger than his huge noggin. His tail never stopped wagging. He enjoyed his daily walks, playing with his fur sister and BFF, and causing lots of cute shenanigans that his mom and The Rescue Crew family could never get enough of. He lived the best doggie life a doggie could ever have for the ten months we could give him. But the past few weeks he began to fade. His energy was exhausted, his breathing became labored, and all he wanted to do was lie by his mommas’ side. She let him do that and fed him meatballs when he’d eat. But yesterday, he looked up at her and let her know the time had come. He held on as long as he could so her heart wouldn’t break. He didn’t want to leave the family he loved so much and the life he had, but his body could no longer carry him through this world, and it was time to let him cross The Rainbow Bridge so he could run and be strong again on the other side. There’s a huge hole in our hearts and we grieve for his foster mom and Rosie Mae. Please send thoughts and prayers to help them be strong and carry on without their beloved Bob. He will always be loved and remembered – Bob was one of a kind.
