Meet Ivory, a friendly and easygoing 2-year-old pup with a gentle spirit. From our volunteer observations, Ivory seems to enjoy the company of people and is often described as a love bug who enjoys cuddling. This medium-sized sweetheart has a dainty and gentle play style, making her a great companion for those seeking a calm and affectionate dog. Ivory appears to be an excellent walker on a leash and, according to our volunteers, she's quick to learn new tricks and commands.

These pups sat in the shelter for a few days and we begged the public for help to get them proper care and save their lives!!! They are on their way to medical care and their sweet Foster’s who is a nurse and able to provide them with the appropriate care they will require. 💜💜💜 Pray for our pups

Welp here it is:

Drew has a very severe Pneumonia actually is bad as one can get. 😩😩🥹 his entire chest was like a white cloud on the X-ray.

A little good news is that he does not have an obstruction and is Parvo negative. Drew will need around the clock care and hopefully he will pull through this. He sat in there for a week like this and that alone devastates me inside that I have to beg so hard I’m in tears just to get these dogs the help and care they need. He couldn’t does alone in his kennel. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO DONATED TOWARDS HIS BILL! It’s was $762 and we have to pick up Baytril at the pharmacy because it’s only $80 verses $130 songs total is $842 and I have attached his vet bill in comments for proof of Veterinary care because we like to be very transparent about our dogs and how we care for them 💜💜💜 Drew is going to foster… I don’t want to let him go 🥹 PLEASE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OUR SHELTER DOGS THEY NEED US TO FIGHT FOR THEM.

He was rescued by another rescue and sadly he has passed away.

PLAYGROUP: EPG2 NO PLAYSTYLE
On 10/26/24
Dog is calm being muzzled and spends some time trying to get it off but is able to be steered from this behavior . Mostly just stayed to himself and showed some interest when one of the helpers got closer. With more play sessions we can eventually take muzzle off as his behavior has significantly improved
On 10/18/24: PG3 - SELECTIVE RR - ROUGH & ROWDY
Dog was very reactive behind barrier and had to muzzle for this reason. Would redirect when trying to leash and muzzle so I took him away from others to leash. Was able to get muzzled after leaving yard with him and was still reactive to others. When let into yard he charged in with high energy, growling and charging helpers. Would try to pin others and was hard to steer with tools due to high energy. Made other attempts to chase and mount but stopped when handlers got physically involved. Was gentle with people and stuck beside handlers.

SHELTER OBSERVATION

Wagged tail, moved behind and smiled

On 10/18/24
Dog was very reactive behind barrier, and would bark and growling and lunge towards others behind fence. Can redirect with his energy and would nip towards me when trying to collar in the presence of others. Does very well not in the presence of others and very cuddly when he cant see others. Loves treats and will sit if patient
On 10/22/24
Met Drew in his kennel, he came up immediately with a wagging tail. I got down on his level to scan his microchip, and he put his head in my lap and solicited attention. Allowed petting all over his body and didn't mind me scanning thoroughly for a microchip.

THE GOOD, THE BAD, & THE UGLY OF RESCUE

I would like to start off by saying Dylan is truly that once in a lifetime dog! He is literally an angel on earth. He is terrified of everything which is his given right, humans have not been good to him and neither have dogs. We all know what ultimate betrayal feels like… it’s devastating, heartbreaking and even changes you a bit. You become more alert with your surroundings and become leery of others. It just plain out sucks! Everyone is handed a different path in life! My path is no where I ever imagined!!

I always wanted to move somewhere warm I hated the snow and felt like I was missing out on life being tucked away in cold Buffalo every winter. I grew fond of Dallas/Fort Worth 6 years ago when I rescued my beautiful Lucy Lou aka Monkey here. Everyone who has been following me for years got know Monkey she became a part of everyone’s feed and her story was absolutely heartbreaking like Dylan’s. Monkey was unrecognizable after 6 months of having her the people from Fort Worth (the shelter she came from) couldn’t believe it was the same dog. Love, proper vetting, and care is what changed her life. That’s truly what rescue is about! It doesn’t matter if you own a 501c3 and have a rescue, if you are out here in these battlegrounds of rescue, you are just as valuable and needed as a rescue. One thing about rescue the public really needs to understand is that we are emotionally drained constantly, we isolate ourselves, we overthink, we are workaholics, and we get very depressed from the overwhelming amount of sadness and betrayal we see daily in rescue.

I decided to take the plunge when I closed my business in Buffalo and move to Dallas to rescue and continue training dogs. Everything moved so fast because TEXAS is a world of its own! I dedicated my entire life to save dogs! I gave up everything I had for them! I’m here in Dallas which is beautiful by the way and I’m still so happy I moved! It’s just a sad field in rescue! I NEED LOVE, SUPPORT, SHARES, DONATIONS, AND KIND WORDS. You will never see the things that happen here happen in New York I promise you that. I jumped right in because the dogs needed me, the shelters, BUT MORE SO… THE PEOPLE! let’s talk about that.

There is a huge lack of education going on here and that is the culture shock to me not the abuse! The way things are done here is scary and alarming. No one spends time with their Foster’s or volunteers explaining decompression, slow intros, transitions, enrichment, exercise, and crate training. I’ve never seen so many people just throw dogs together and hope it works out. My mouth is to the floor some days. The amount of people that keep their dogs in back yards 24/7 is astonishing to me! The lower class neighborhoods are completely treated differently and segregated here. It’s like day and night if you go to one neighborhood verses the other. Let me assure stray and neglected dogs aren’t living in the upper class communities! Which tells me there is a lack of education, resources, and compassion in these neighborhoods. It’s start with our kids! What we teach! What kind of example are we? What they witness! People don’t just become adults and throw a dog in the backyard! They learned that! ITS A HUGE CULTURE PROBLEM! We need to start teaching our children about pet care and compassion/empathy. We need to be better examples. We need to take the time to explain to those owning pets how to properly take care of an animal. Is that going to stop abuse? Absolutely not! However it could minimize it and it could change that backyard dogs life! I know because my neighbor had their dog outside 24/7 and I was feeding him for months, giving him beds, blankets, toys, treats. Although I don’t agree with them I decided to educate them, guess what? Their dog is an inside dog now, he got neutered, had a bath, and vaccines. They take him to soccer games. You know how happy I was to see that? They just didn’t know the importance of vaccines, proper care, pets are family. Please take the time as a rescuer to educate and be a good example to the community not someone who complains all the time and doesn’t have patience for others. LEAD BY EXAMPLE!

On that note I’m starting a program called “Pets Are Family” with elementary schools in lower class neighborhoods and if you’d like to volunteer with me and learn the program, I’d love to have some help. It’s starts next year and we believe it’s going to blow up and become a nationwide program at all elementary and middle schools. The program teaches kids proper pet care I.e., vaccines, spay and neuter, how to report a lost or stolen dog, how to bathe a dog, how to care for a dog, and safety protocol. If you’d like to be a part of this program please apply as a volunteer at: btvrescue.org

Lastly let’s catch up on SWEET DYLAN! Dylan is lovely, quiet, calm, leery, wags his tail, wants to trust and love so bad kind of a dog. Everyone is wondering what happened to Dylan and how could the shelter (Dallas) let him sit like that for 5 days? Well I’m wondering the same thing and his conditions seem to of changed while there. Here is what I do know because I don’t put false information out there if I post it trust me it’s been investigated or I have proof and facts. So upon picking him up you can imagine how sick to my stomach I was he was SHOCKING to look at! I see his before video and don’t see these wounds, however they claim they shaved him and you could see them more graphically. I don’t know how this could have been so overlooked but here’s what I do know; City shelters are municipal buildings owned by that city…ITS A JOB AND RESPONSIBILITY of the city! They are overwhelmed and overworked. They don’t always have the best candidates working there either. You get what you get! But it’s our duty as a 501c3 to be the animals voice. I’m not sure if Dylan came to them in this horrific shape or if something occurred in their care, I do know he should not of sat there in pain and untreated for 5 days! It’s unimaginable how lonely and painful he felt. I work closely with Dallas Animal Services and we pull ALOT of urgency dogs. This is my home now. If I don’t like something I need POLICY AND PROCEDURE CHANGE NOT COMPLAINING! I have addressed this situation privately and moving forward we will have better communication on their end. They do take care of their dogs, I do love this shelter a lot, and we are all trying to do our very best. This is not a competition, a race, a war, this is a TEAM and without each other we cannot SAVE DOGS!

Dylan is healing, he is very loved, and he too will be another Monkey… unrecognizable 6 months from now. Dylan is very loved and I have a feeling he will be a dog that stays in our feeds for the remaining of his life too! If you’d like to donate towards his care or the care of our other urgent dogs we would absolutely apprecyoir support and keep you updated on the dogs you donate towards. Be Their Voice Rescue is very transparent and communicates/updates our following as much as possible. THAN YOU FOR LOVING ALL THE DYLANS OF THE WORLD!

LOVE,

JANUARY

Meet Petey, a charming young pup who's just celebrating his first birthday! This sweetheart is a social butterfly who loves making new friends, both furry and human. From our volunteer observations, Petey seems to enjoy a gentle and laid-back approach to playtime, preferring to take things slow and easy. He's often seen exploring the yard, sniffing around, and politely greeting other dogs, showing a relaxed and easygoing demeanor. Petey also appears to have a soft spot for human attention, often seeking affection from handlers while still maintaining a comfortable balance with his canine companions.

Petey is feeling under the weather with a URI and has lost his appetite. Our medical team started Petey on injectable medication today but we are hoping to find Pete placement soon to give him more intensive treatment.
