Welcome to The Doxie Blog! Adoption season is in full swing, and did you know, it is National Adopt a Pet Weekend! Please consider rescue for your next pet. Here at DRBC, we have plenty of pups in need of a furever home. All you have to do is fill out an application, and bring a new family member into your home! Want to learn more?

In our updates this week, drumroll please........ 1000 is the new Shoe Drive Total! Keep in mind that this is the total on hand at DRBC Central, so if you have dropped at a satellite drop spot we may not have that yet! Let's keep the momentum going, as our Shoe Drive has been extended. Want to get involved? Talk to your neighbors and friends today, and visit http://doxierescue.com/DRBC_Shoe_Drive.html to find a drop spot near you!

We're also still seeking a Transport Coordinator. Are you great at organizing stuff? Do you have some time to help the Foster/Adoption Team get movement scheduled each week? Have we got a great job for you! Reach out and lend your skills and get puppers needing transport routed to Central for adoption and out of bad situations to Foster Care/Grandpaws homes.

This Team Leader will:
Have great communications skills
Enjoy troubleshooting and planning
Be a people person

Email us at info@doxierescue.com to learn more today. WE NEED YOU!!!





Next up, our Pupdates! It was a busy week for us here at DRBC. Not only did the NY3 arrive safely, but along with them, so did this little guy! Named Remen, we have shortened it to Remey. Very, very thin, very frightened, but SAFE! Please give a warm welcome to Remey as he joins the DRBC family.












Ruby and Oliver joined us as their Mom had to go to assisted living. Poor Oliver is suffering with a little known disease called Acanthosis nigricans causing thickened skin and yeast infection. Fortunately he has his sister and they will get the love and attention they need until they find their forever home! We love ya Ruby & Oliver!

Want to welcome our new pups to the family in a special way? Follow the link and help them get a new collar, harness and tag. Nothing like a new set of things to begin a new life. Hope you can help Gang!










SAFE!!!! This little girl arrived as part of the NY3 and was seen by our veterinary team this week. She really needs your support. Her eyes are clouded over with infection and she has many mammy tumors. Yet the tail wags. That is a doxie for you; so sweet. Please support this fundraiser; we cannot help them without you! Just follow the link below to read their story, and support the NY3. Thanks Gang!

SMILE OF THE WEEK



This week Winnie, one of our Grandpaws Dogs, gave us a scare. Before she came to DRBC, Winnie was shaken because she was slow to housetrain, and suffered neurological damage. Winnie has been with DRBC for some time, and gets around well in a cart. This week, she lost the use of her front legs. It has happened before, but it always gives us a scare. Thankfully,  she is becoming more responsive, has started to eat and is complaining away. She lifted her head and even sat up for a few seconds. We have no idea how much functioning will return for her, but we love and support this special little one. Please give a big round of love and prayer for her this week, she needs it!








Harold could hardly hold still as we took his picture. He has great news...he has a new home! We could not be happier for this little guy. He sure stole our hearts after his survival as Pit Bull bait. Now he will enjoy a loving home with loves of TV and belly rubs! Yeah Harold!!

That is it for this week's Pupdates. Stay tuned for more updates, and we'll leave you with the Cutie of the Week.

CUTIE OF THE WEEK
Meet Oscar. He turned 18 this week, so we've decided to give him this very special award. Yeah Oscar! Thanks for joining us, and don't forget to visit our Facebook page for up to the minute breaking news. Have a great week Gang!
