Hello everybody its Liz. It's with a heavy heart we chose to close our rescue for good.
After running the rescue for 21 years my health has started to decline both
physically and emotionally.
I was working 16 hours a day for years and although I have not taken very good care of myself, I have always taken good care of all the dogs, they have always come first.
I am so grateful for all of the great people who helped us and the ones who adopted. For almost 21 years we save all the dogs we could , we estimate that we saved about 350 per year. Some years were slower like the last 2 but some were crazy busy.
​
It is bittersweet and i'm gonna miss the rescue and all the dogs but I have to take care of myself now. There's so many stories to tell that are good and bad, it was a whirlwind.
​
Thank you everybody for your support and sometimes complaints and not so much thanks to some mean people that made my job difficult.
I put my whole heart in these sweet babies. I've seen a lot of tragedies like getting dog fights, emaciated dogs. Dogs who couldn't not recover from there trauma as hard as I tried.
For the most part, all the dogs were good, but when they're not, it's very sad. I've seen a lot of crazy stuff but that didn't break me.
​
When I was a child, I got my first dog and she was wonderful. I always knew i was gonna work with animals.
My first job was at a clinic in Portsmouth, NH
To everybody reading this just no that wasn't doing it for clout, it was my life purpose. I will be working with dogs in a different facet, starting next year.
I need to heal. To everybody who adopted it made a great impact for these poor dogs.
I have to say goodbye now. It's bittersweet.
