Me and Hubby was talking about how many rescues we have took in over the years, I always say about 60 or more. Hubby said No there was way more then that so we started going through the pictures and started naming the ones we didn't have pictures of WOW there was a lot.Some was dropped dumped on the road some was just homeless and others we got from the pound. while others needed surgery or treated for one thing or another. shots, worms, lice, infested in fleas and ticks ringworm, one had a dead eye that was out of socket and needed removed some had to be put under while the others wear treated cleaned, groomed and fattened up and rehomed.one needed pins put in its hip one had broken leg,one had nerve damage and cruched back.one had a collar inbedded in its neck. one had a hairlip some had infections, ear mites. and there were so many Dogs, 60 or more cats 4 birds, squirrels, 2 raccoons, 4-6 rabbits, 4 opossums 1 fox, 3 mice, 60 hamsters, 2 gerbils, 3 chickens,1 ferret ,2 ginnypigs, 1 pigs,horses 1 but was not ours but helped feed it and it was on our land.but owners would not take care of it, a friend has it and we might be getting it back. 50 mix dogs and cats that we rehomed that we found homes for but did not bring to our home .some was people that moved and left most of them behind even mothers with pup and or kittens. Hubby went hunting one cold winter and found 3 pups about 3-4 months old living in a drain hole in the ground,No close houses for miles. we feed for over a week trying to get them to come out and it took about a week before they trusted us enough to crawl out of the drain, Hunters took them home so we didnt have to rehome those 3. Theres two cats pic below my daughter took in and still has. and theres a few that we ended up keeping.Theres a lot of animals thru the years and a lot of stories behind each one, would take me for ever to write. lol
