Small Gerogia Rescue in Emergency Situation Needing Food

Originally posted in August, things are still dire.  Please help this wonderful group continue to save lives and rescue not only rotties, but other breeds from tiny teacup babies to mastiffs.  Don't think that any amount is too small...it all adds up and every positive intention attracts more help.  Just a click and a moment of your time can make the difference in the life of a trusting animal who would otherwise be abandoned or euthanized.

Pam is also looking for reliable transports to Brady, Texas and Bangor, Maine if you have any suggestions and leads.
And finally, if you are interested in volunteering and/or fostering, please contact her.


On behalf of Pam Bone of the Rural Ga Rottie Animal Rescue, we are sending out a plea for help. They have lost the food donations from Petsmart due to corporate restructuring. The rescue is now facing an extreme difficulty in feeding the animals in her care and is having to turn away other animals in need due to the lack in funds and food. Please read her note below and do what you can to help. Thank you, Hearts to the Rescue.

*From Pam:  Here in Georgia we are unfortunate victims of hard economic times. We generally go through 50-100# of food a day! We've run out of options and cannot afford to purchase the food on our own. The money we do get goes to vetting first and foremost. We are pleading to the community as well as pursuing other companies who may be willing to donate. While we are a smaller rescue, we have joined efforts to form a coalition with other rescues in hopes more mouths to feed would enable us to gain more donations. So here we are, begging, pleading, if anyone has any ideas, suggestions, connections, or even just a can or bag of food, please contact us: ruralgarottierescue@pstel.net. We have puppies to seniors from tiny teacup Chihuahuas to Great Danes, Mastiffs, and of course Rotties! So no food will go wasted. Please consider helping us so we can save lives!  Thank you ~

Horseshoe Bend, AR - Please help little Poohbear and Trixie find a home - they must stay together no matter what.


Please help us get the word out about these two. This is truly a heart breaking and heart wrenching story. We are asking and imploring someone to help them.
WHO ARE WE? We are Trixie and PooBear. Our loving caretakers had us for 7 years, but have both now died. Please give us a chance - we're good dogs as long as we have each other. And we'll be good companions for you and your family.
WHERE ARE WE? Horseshoe Bend , AR. About 2 1/2 hours north of Little Rock, 1 hour east of Mountain Home, and 1 1/2 hours west of Jonesboro
HOW CAN YOU HELP US? Contact SillySetters1@aol.com

THEIR SAD STORY: *From Susan: I'm asking for help for two senior dogs whose owner has died. Trixie and PoohBear had been with this couple, Dan and his wife, since they were pups, seven years ago. Last year the wife died. In the summer Dan learned he was dying, and asked for help with the dogs. Two weeks ago Dan died. Each dog has been placed in a home, but with no success. Trixie absolutely ran away from everyone, and is a very fearful girl. PoohBear was with a couple for a week, and they said she was 95% perfect, but her seperation anxiety made it impossible for them to keep her. She cut herself badly pulling down blinds after losing three teeth in a crate trying to get out. Now, they are both in Animal Control, perfectly content as long as they are together. Would you have any room for them in your rescue? They need to stay together. Both are healthy and spayed. PoohBear has been fully vetted. Trixie would need to be vet checked. We would be able to make a donation to help with that.

Richmond, VA - precious Savannah, sweet little Jack Russel -- deaf and now blind, needs a new home.


WHO AM I? My name is Savannah. You see, I haven't been able to hear since I was born, and now I've gone blind. But I'm a happy dog and I can be your best friend. I just need a little extra attention.... not much. If you give me a chance, I'll show you so much love. I can find my food and water, and I can even use a doggie door. But I'm not too good with stairs. Please read more about me below. Name: Savannah, purebred Jack Russel Terrier, 15 lbs, housebroken; gets along with other dogs; possible allergy to grain.
WHERE AM I? Richmond, VA
HOW CAN YOU HELP ME? Please contact  Mvtanito@aol.com if you can help find me a good home.

SAVANNAH'S STORY: *From M: "Back to square one! We were all set to build a doggie ramp but then the owner decided that Savannah, a 6 yr. old deaf dog who has only gone blind in the last 4 months, needs to go to a new home because they really cannot afford to keep her. What made them realize this was that she started itching a lot in her rump area and is biting the hair off. I told them to put her on that grain free dog food they have at Costco that is 35 lbs. for $35. It sounds like a grain allergy. She is only about 15 pounds and is friendly, housebroken, and gets along with other dogs. She lives with another small dog, Peyton. Savannah lives in Richmond, Va."

*From the owner: "good day...i have a jack russel that has gone blind...she was born deaf and we saved her from destruction because she was the pick of the litter but because she was deaf the breeder was gonna have her put down....now that she has gone blind she can no longer go down the back deck steps the use the rest room....if i was healthy, i could take her down the steps to do that but i am in a tough cancer fight and i do not have the strength to do that as i can hardly do it for myself...is there an organization out there that would take her and NOT put her down? she really is a sweetheart and finds her food and water with no problem, she even finds the doggie door to the back deck, she just doesn't go down the steps so she does her business on the back deck....i really want to find her a good home as she deserves more than i can give her.... thank you in advance...."
