Well, we had to let yet another senior dog go.  We pulled her and her daughter from a shelter in North Carolina.  Several dogs were dumped there by their owner, they could no longer hunt and "were not worth feeding".  Thank goodness the owner did this.  The mother, Rose, was in horrible shape, mammary tumors, serious organ issues and of course little or no teeth.  The male that was brought in was in good shape and rescued quickly, the females, Rose and daughter Violet were not.  They we brought to us by some very kind people and were taken to the wonderful people at the Virginia Beach SPCA clinic.  The mother was in such bad shape we could only offer her a few days of love, good food and time in the sun.  The daughter, Violet, is heart worm positive and has serious dental issues, but we can take care of that.  We are happy to give what we can to the ones we can't save and grateful that they leave peacefully and surrounded by people that truly care.  Of course none of this could be possible without the kindness and generosity of fellow animal lovers.  The people that make donations so rescues can save the animals, are an amazing group of people, each person has their own reason for wanting to help, and all of their donations, no matter the amount, help save so many animals.  Foster parents are the backbone of many rescues, like ours.  They give of their time and love to help these dogs, from unknown circumstances, live in a home environment and learn what it means to be a valued member of the family.  We at Bay Beagle Rescue are humbled that these groups of people believe in our cause.
