My little foster dog, Cricket.
Now named Cricket, and having been with us here at Handsome Dan’s Rescue for a week, this emaciated dog is finally out of the woods. Literally and figurativelty.
It will be a long recovery, but Cricket is a fighter, as are we. She will make it. She will live!

Dan’s story, started in a clearing chained to a car axel deep in some Virginia woods. It ended with the Vicktory Dogs changing the landscape for survivors of dogfighting, allowing them to be evaluated as individuals. It was their success that has allowed happy endings for survivors of dogfighting.

❤️🩹 Time for a little healing. Let’s share things we regret regarding our dog(s) who have left.
I regret not getting Dan a space heater to put next to his bed. I regret not getting a glass front door with a bed so he could look out. ❤️🩹
💕 Let go of any regrets and know we did the best we could .

Get back at your ex and help a dog at Rhode Island SPCA this Valentine's Day!
This morning on The Rhode Show we welcomed Stephanie Van Patten and Hugh Tucker from Rhode Island SPCA. They told us about their "Tearing Up My Heart" Fundraiser going on now through this Valentine's Day. You can submit something you don't like, like your ex, for a dog to tear through in an enrichment toy.
They also brought in Kogi who is up for adoption and in need of a loving home!
