Critter Details

Recently we made a plea for foster help, as many of our partner shelters are at critical capacity. One particular set of dogs stole our hearts, and between the cold weather coming in and the dire medical needs these dogs had we scrambled to get them to us. Please welcome Momma Mimosa and her brunch babies, Blueberry Muffin and Cheese Danish. Five dogs were at the shelter, the adults walking skeletons and the babies so bloated with worms they waddled more than walked. They are just five of many more dogs living in those same horrible conditions waiting to come into the shelter when more space opens up for them. Luckily another rescue was able to pull one adult, we took Momma and babies and a few days later we went back for the last emaciated adult there (more on that soon) because… No Swampie left behind! And in our hearts we knew they were all already Swampies the moment we saw a picture pleading for help for them. Mimosa is a little timid, but truly as sweet as can be, and each day filled with cuddles and baby talk leaves her more and more wiggley and happy. She eats like she doesn’t know when her next meal is coming, and we have promised her she won’t ever have to worry about that life again. Bluey and Dani are learning all things puppy! The worm bellies are slowly shrinking, Bluey is getting treated for a UTI and the poor girl also has an eye injury that we are monitoring. There is a chance she may never have full vision in her one eye again, but we are hopeful at its progress as she grows. The sassy puppy romps are coming out more and more as the girls feel better too. Stay tuned for updates as we get to know the Brunch Babes and be a part of their healing journey. Swipe to see the shelter pictures that broke our hearts. Only better days ahead for the brunch babes! If you are interested in becoming a foster please head to our website to apply! Message us for questions and we are happy to tell you all about what fostering a Swampie means. While these babies are safe there are many more that still need our help! Apply today!
