Home Again Dalmatain Rescue

NEWS

Update 01-28-10

We come into the new year busy. There have been alot of dalmatian and dalmatians mixes in need but we have not been able to pull do to financial hardship.

We do have good news though as Sweet Pea and Rascal got adopted over the last month. Rascal has been with us for a year now and we finally found her a perfect home. Sweet Pea didnt take long to find her a home as she was just such a cute. Thanks to Tanya Kittrell we were able to get Sweet Pea to South Carolina.

We will be working on continuing to reduce out numbers before we pull more. We have had a couple generous donations toward some of hour dogs to help them get them the vet care they need.

Thanks to David Lewis, Becky Connrad, Jodie Kelly, J Clemons, and Edgar Muffin for recent donations.

UPDATE 12-22-09

2 urgent bulldog mixes were just pulled from BJC animal control today. Idget and Hazel are now face with us. Hazel is HW positive and has come hip problems. Even with these problems she as bred! If you would like to donate to her care, please donate through our paypal account.

Idget is sweet, HW negative, around 2-3 years old. He just needs a home.

UPDATE 12-11-09

Alot has happened in the last 3 months!! Judy, Dixie and Bunker have all found homes. Judy went to Chattanooga, TN, Bunker and Dixie both went to firefighters over in Mississippi. They are all doing so well. Daisy is also pending adoption and so far its going very well.

We also brought in another Dal a couple months ago from the Athens dog pound. We named her Whisper as she is Deaf, though that doesnt stop her from barking and making her presence known. She ended up being around 14 years old. She is most likely HW positive, has arthritis and flea allergies. She will most likely be with us for the rest of her days.

UPDATE 9-8-09

We have just recently rescued two beautiful purebred dals from the BJC animal control in Birmingham Alabama. We named then Dixie (1 1/2 yo female) and Daisy (5 yo female) Unfortunately Daisy came in with pneumonia and is HW positive. She is a candidate for HW treatment and now that she is cured of her pneumonia she is ready for her treatment. We have found a vet that will do it at low cost. If you would like to donate toward her HW treatment, please click on our chip in link under Support us. We are wanting to raise $200 for this treatment. Please state in comments what your donation is for. "Nana's HW treatment" Pictures to come when Nana gets some good whitening shampoo on her to get the "shelter stains" off.

 

We dont always bring in Dalmatians, when others are urgent we try to work them in when we have room.

This is Fletcher he is an English Bulldog Mix around 4-5 years old. His named used to be Idgit, but we have a little dog named Gigit and we were having a head time training with Idgit and Gigit! LOL We have no idea what he is mixed with! He was rescued from the BJC animal control in Birmingham AL. He was just there to long. I dont know how he was overlooked because he is so precious, with a great personality.

He is good with other dogs but he doesnt like to live with them. He wants to be the only dog in his house. He will go out and play with other dogs all day long and enjoys himself but wants you to himself. We are working on this cause here he has no choice but to live with other dogs and he is doing well. But he sure wouldnt mind if he was the only one to get all the attention. He loves to go for walks, we are working on the heal command, which he is doing very well. He knows how to sit and he is learning how to run on the treadmill. We are also teaching him how to be gentle when taking treats! He follows you around the house and lays where ever you stop. He is in kennel training and house training. He has only had one accident thus far.He is a strong boy and can get excited with new people so small children are not recommended. Fenced in yard required.
