We Believe All Dogs Have the Right to Live ~ And be Loved!
We would like to do a massive shout out to all our loyal supporters and followers. These have not been easy days we have all been faced with and we often don't get the opportunity to stop and thank everyone. So here it is "Thank You". During the last few months and the stressful times of COVID-19, shelters have continued to be over run with unwanted animals, in fact there was an increase as people scrambled to make sense of their world, losing jobs, losing hope. RTLR has been there as always, pulling dogs and finding homes for them. We are so pleased to announce that we have remained steady as far as adoptions and transfers go and we never let a dog down. When a dog comes into our care they are safe and will always have a home. None of this is possible without the tireless work of our supporters, our fosters and our volunteers. We speak for the animals when we say once again "Thank You".
In other exciting news... We just had a surprise litter of 7 adorable puppies! This was a COMPLETE surprise as Mama Daisy was a skinny girl and no-one suspected she might be pregnant. In fact she was so thin she was a delayed spay, and thank goodness for now we are loving on these sweet little ones. RTLR does not usually pull pregnant mama's or puppies as they are normally pulled quite quickly. We pride ourselves on getting the older dogs, the sick or injured dogs, the HW+ dogs and the breeds that can often be overlooked. It will be a while before these sweet little ones are available, in the mean time we will be doting on Mama Daisy as well as the pups to ensure that she knows she is just as loved and as wonderful as her 7 puppies. When the time is right she will be available for adoption but she has a long road ahead of her taking care of her puppies while we take care of her.

It's so hard and so cold on this concrete floor I'm desperately straining to see the door But when it opens the noise is oh so loud I try to stay quiet and stand up proud I can smell their scent, I can hear a voice Something about there isn't much choice I can hear the others begging "Please pick me!" But I was taught well and sit patiently Now they're in front of me, eyes open wide I smile at them and invite them inside But they back away and quickly move on I hear the door slam, it's quiet, they're gone Well it soon will be supper and here comes my friend He says I'm a "good boy, but it's come to the end" He's rubbing me kindly but won't look in my eyes When I kiss him and love him I think I hear cries I'm going for a walk but I feel somethings wrong My good friend keeps telling me I must be strong But we don't go outside, we go into a room It smells strange, I am scared and it feels full of doom My friend picks me up and puts me down on the bed He hugs me and whispers, I don't hear what he said But I shouldn't be scared, it's an injection, a shot But when I look at their faces I know that's not what I got I feel tired and sleepy, somethings not right I don't want to sleep, I don't want to, I fight! My friend holds me tightly he says it's okay But I don't understand why I couldn't stay. DONATE via PayPal: Therighttoliverescue@outlook.com |
