Fundraiser Page for "Don't Be Cruel Animal Rescue and Sanctuary

Urgent. Is therd anyone who can help me get this little guy out of there today? Asap before they kill him.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO DO RESCUE?

Your rescue "kit" should include:
A heart of gold to accept those creatures that don't measure up as "perfect" in the eyes of the rest of the world.
The people skills of a salesperson. . . to convince those that are looking for perfection that they will find it in a rescue dog if they are willing to look a little deeper.
A heart of steel to be able to say no when there just isn't any more room for just one more dog.
The knowledge that you can't save them all.
The ability to smile and speak rationally when the 10th person for the day says "I don't want this stupid dog anymore. . . take him or I am gonna shoot him."
Some medical knowledge. . . or your rescue vet bill will be bigger than the national debt.
The fine art of fund raising. . . so your vet bill can be reduced to just under the size of the national debt.
Patience for: breeders who don't care, won't help, turn their backs and say it's not their problem.
Patience for: dogs that were incorrectly placed and come to rescue with so much excess baggage that you think they will never be adoptable.
Patience for: owners who want a quick fix.
Patience for: a world that no longer looks at life as a gift and the lives that we create as breeders as nothing short of miracles.
A sense of humor. . . because sometimes a smile on your face is the only way to hide the agony and turmoil in your heart.
A wife/husband with housekeeping skills that are so outstanding that they could be highlighted in Good Housekeeping Magazine. . . so you can devote your time to all the rescues and be secure in the knowledge that the local Board of Health will not condemn your house.
Personal dogs that will tolerate the never ending stream of four legged orphans, waifs and street urchins that will start arriving the moment you say. . . "I have room."
Children that like being the "token" child to socialize every dog that comes thru the door. . . being able to say "good with kids" is a real selling point.
Magician skills so you can change anything that comes thru the door, from black tri male to long tail and brown eyes, into blue merle female, good with kids, housebroke, crate trained and obedience trained.
The ability to face the paperwork head-on and deal with it. . . or someone you can send it to and say. . . "Here, do something with this mess!"
Grooming skills for those ugly ducklings waiting for their chance to be a swan. . . with a little help from you.
I could go on but you probably get the picture. . . . None of us have all of these things but we all know that the business of rescue is a team effort. Each of us contribute what we can as a team member. Some of us cannot handle the dogs [or cats or birds or horses or rabbits or . . . ], but . . . there are other things that must be done.

Some only want to work with the dogs [themselves, or the cats or . . . ] . . . so. . . leave the paperwork to those that like it. No matter what your situation is. . . it is your willingness to help that is important.

Desperately in need of a little help for a couple bags of Pedigree dog food, a box of milk bones if possible and a bag of cat food. Have puppy food, food for the special needs and seniors. I just fed the last of the pedigree and still have two more to feed this morning. Along with the kitties. The milk bones are a treat so although they aren’t a necessity they all look forward to them in the afternoon. Pm me for details or send to paypal:[email protected]. Thanks all and God Bless.

Desperately in need of funds for food, for my crew, cleaning supplies, preventatives,etc. We’ve been barely getting by for so long that I just have no choice. Between vet bills, gas to and from dr’s hospitals, vets appts, meds, etc. we are so far behind. Prayjng for some adoptions soon but until them I have no choice than to beg again. If you can help please pm me or can send to paypal: [email protected]. Please share and please help if you can. Please don’t critize me for asking. Thanks all and God Bless.

Need rescue in Houston or East Texas or temp foster till other arrangents can be made. Anyone that can help with this?

Hey rescues we just got a little yellow lab mix off highway!! We can't keep him. Very sweet! Looks like he was just dumped because he was wa,lying right in front of speeding cars ! I need help for him! Asap. No pics yet.

A friend of mine posted this and I think it speaks for all of us trying to save them.
We hurt when they hurt but we never give up.

I rescue dogs. I fight for them. I dedicate my life to them. I rarely put myself first. I NEVER put them last. I always try to do right by them
I am optimistic, but also realistic. I am a positive person, who has been beaten down by the negativity of the world. I am happy most days, but with a constant underlying sadness.
I have opened my heart to more dogs than I can count. I bring them into my home. I return the life that was taken from them.
I have accepted the craziness of my world. I take the insanity in stride. I have given up any hope of having a normal life or a perfectly clean house.
I live each day, for the dogs. I wake up, prepared to save more. I go to sleep, thinking of those I couldn’t reach.
I hate my phone… it NEVER stops ringing or beeping. I answer and listen to yet another plea for a dog that no one cares about, no one will help.I look into the eyes of the neglected. I feel their pain in my own heart. I hear their silent cries.
I apologize for the awful things that have happened to them. I say “I’m sorry” for things I didn’t do. I say, “I love you,” because no one else in their life ever has.
I try to talk sense into senseless people. I try to educate the ignorant. I fail at these attempts on a daily basis.
I can’t save them all. I can’t even save most. I live each day knowing that, no matter how hard I try, it will never be enough.
I know that even when I succeed, I fail. I know that for every one I save, there’s another I lose. I know that no matter how many I help, my work is never done.
Even still, I save all that I can. I love more than I thought possible. I smile… because they smile.
I take-on their pain, so that they may have happiness. I allow my heart to hurt, so their’s can heal. I become the one who is wounded, so they may be restored. I know the cruelty that exists. I’ve seen the faces of abuse. I witness the senselessness of the world… and know that change is always just beyond my grasp…
I ask for help… it rarely comes. I pray for hope… it rarely appears. I beg for mercy… it rarely arrives. I sometimes lose faith in humanity. Some days, I crawl into bed and pull the covers over my eyes.
Sometimes, I sob. I hurt so much… but I cry because they hurt more than I ever could. The helplessness drives me to say, “I can’t…”
Then, a foster dog’s kiss says, “You can…”
So, I get out of bed. I brush off the despair. I vow to make a difference. I do make a difference. I never give up. I fight for change each day. I pray for relief from the pain… not for me, but for them.
I rescue dogs. In turn, dogs rescue me. Everything in between... is so worth it.

This page has been getting a lot of likes. And I haven’t posted in here for awhile. Mainly because it was set up as a fundraiser page for the rescue and I really don’t have time to organize any fundraisers. It’s just my family and that are Don’t Be Cruel and I am the only one who posts. So please if you like this page, hop on over to our main rescue page Don’t Be Cruel Animal Rescue and Sanctuary and like our main page.

Don't Be Cruel Animal Rescue and Sanctuary "Don't be Cruel!" animal rescue was founded and formed in 2007 to help furkids in need and danger.

Please share and please contribute if you can. We have so many special needs, heart worm positives that are on treatment, seniors, and harder to adopt furkids that count on us. If you notice, I don't post fundraisers very often. I know that times are hard for all and I feel guilty that others may need it more. But our kids need help too. So many friends have adopted our kids in the many years that we've been operating. If our adopters would just send 5.00 it would add up quickly and we'd be able to order more meds and preventatives, buy more food, and pay a little to the vets, and maybe have a little left over to buy the kids a few treats and toys that they look forward to. You can send to paypal: [email protected] any and all will be greatly appreciated and always needed. Thanks all and God Bless.
