Special needs rescue since 2017.
Because every dog deserves a home.
Adopting is one of the best things you can do.
When you adopt, you’re not just giving a deserving dog a home. You’re also reducing the demand for puppy mills and other industrial-scale breeding operations that put profit before animal welfare. Sadly, bad breeding is the cause of many of the birth defects our dogs suffer.

Nimble
Nimble is a sweet girl who is paralyzed in her hind end. She had one back leg amputated that was straight and causing her pain and difficulties in the cart. Now she does great in her cart!
-
Rosealita
Rosealita is blind and has neurological issues. She is growing quickly now and her legs are getting so long! She is still walking sideways and we have noticed she is falling more often. It doesn’t slow her down any but she will remain with us till her spay and we will continue to monitor her growth and progress for now.

Quest
Quest has come so far and is turning into such an amazing dog. He needs a confident owner who can continue to work with him. He has no issues with new people coming into the house, he’s quiet in his crate, is housebroken and has a goofy side that he has been sharing with us. He is losing his sight but it doesn’t bother him at all.

Rooster
Rooster was found as a stray and was treated for heartworms. He is deaf and spent a year in the shelter down south before making his way to CT. He is friendly and learning how to live in a house. We are working on house breaking. He is great in his crate.

Lacy
Lacy is a super love bug! She had spina bifida and had to have her two rear legs amputated. She is learning how to use a cart!

Pipi
Pipi was diagnosed with dermatomyositis (DMS). This does not stop her at all from being the fun loving little spitfire she is. She is all about the play but will stop for cuddles.
