Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. Defend the rights of all those who have nothing. –Proverbs 31:8 (ICB)
Have you ever loved something so much that it’s as if a gravitational pull is bringing you closer? One where every sign directs to that place where you’re meant to be?
It’s a force that’s difficult to explain, and it may be one where others look at you a bit cross-eyed if you were to try to share the sheer determination you have to get there.
Our place is helping dogs. Quite specifically, our place is to help the underdogs. The forgotten. Those cast aside. The voiceless.
This journey is the manifestation of all of those things, and we also hope it’s a place where others will laugh, cry, share, learn, and get inspired to help the underdogs, too.

Dogs' paws are sensitive, and just like human skin, they can burn and blister when exposed to extreme heat. Unlike us, dogs don’t have the option to avoid hot surfaces unless we guide them. Prolonged exposure to hot pavement can lead to painful injuries, including burns and blisters, which can take weeks to heal and may require veterinary care.
Muffin was hit by a car and her left rear paw and leg were severely injured. She did receive treatment initially, but the wound became infected. Today, she was seen by Hillman Veterinary Clinic in Pensacola. After examination, Dr. Hillman concluded that amputation is necessary to prevent the spread of the infection.

Ya’ll meet Hector. Some of you may know him already as the longest resident of @ccashelter
Hector has been at the shelter for well over 600 days, probably pushing 700 if you don’t count the few days he was adopted before the new owners turned him loose on the streets because they couldn’t keep him in the fence. Hector was lucky that someone recognized him and the staff jumped into action to drive the hour to go get him. Needless to say Hector is wanting a second chance at a new life. This sweet boy is the happiest guy, full of energy but I think it’s mainly because he’s stuck in a kennel most of the day. He just needs someone to give him a chance.
Message us or our friends at @ccashelter to adopt him. ... See MoreSee Less

💕Trixie is part of our T litter that survived parvo after being found dumped in a box. She is the only girl and is the most chill of the three. She can be a little shy when intially meeting someone new, but it doesn't take her long to cover your face in kisses.
Even though she is the calmest, she does love to run and play, but afterward she loves to snuggle in for a little nap.
She has started working on potty training, and her Foster reports that she's a quick learner. She's doing well sleeping in a crate at night, but she would probably love to sleep with you If she had the chance!
Trixie is the best of both worlds since she's still young and has plenty of energy for adventures, but does not require it all the time.
Included in each adoption: age appropriate shots, microchip, and spay/neuter surgery.
Prior to meeting or adopting any of our wonderful animals, we ask that you please fill out our online
application: form.jotform.com/223268341300041
We are a 100% volunteer organization and have to work other jobs to pay the bills. Please give us up to 48 hours to respond. Submission of an adoption application does not obligate you to adopt nor does it guarantee approval. We look forward to hearing from you. ... See MoreSee Less

Welcome to our "Spay It Forward" Campaign! ❤️🐾 We need your help to spay/neuter 10 SAVED puppies who were dumped and abandoned (Teri is taking photos and I'll add them to the comments). We want these sweet babies to have the VERY best chance at an AMAZING life, and this is the first important step! Previously, we had a low-cost spay/neuter option, but now the least expensive we can find is $150 for males and $160 for females (which is very low, amazingly). Our fundraising goal is $1,600, and our spay/neuter date is September 22nd. That means we have a limited amount of time to raise funds for this project. We NEED your help! 🙏
I will also create a Facebook Fundraiser, and I'll link it in the comments! We love Donorbox because we get the funds just a little bit faster, and with this fundraiser, every moment and dime will count! If you can't donate, please SHARE FAR AND WIDE!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU for always supporting our efforts to increase the number of #dogswhoareloved! We can't do this without you!

So far, your donations to help build up a medical cabinet were directly responsible for saving a dog's life and nursing several others back to health from a terrible hoarding situation. We could not be more grateful for your generosity! ❤️🐾 Our next fundraiser will be to raise funds to spay/neuter 6 puppies that were dumped. We will keep you posted, and we so, so, so appreciate your help!
