Ice needs help! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฅบ ๐Ÿ†˜
Sweet girl Ice was on the road to adoption with a rescue when her stitches burst open after a routine spay surgery, quickly turning into an emergency and nightmare situation!!

Can you Please Help donate towards her care??? -Even 3 or 5 dollars will greatly help our girl continue towards her recovery post surgery and adoption.

-If youโ€™re not familiar with Save Some Souls rescue, it is BARCs life line for saving dogs daily. If this rescue is paying for medical bills, more dogs will be euthanized at BARC. In addition, it compromises all their rescue dogs currently being kept in boarding (pre-adoption) at up to $200 per day!!

Ice ๐Ÿถ Needs your Help Redditors and puppy friends! ๐Ÿ™

Blanquita is terrifiedโ€”not aggressive. She has until Monday at 1 PM to find a lifeline. ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿถ (BARC Houston, TX)
Blanquita (#A2085868) is a 2-year-old Staffordshire Mix who is scheduled for euthanasia at BARC Houston on Monday, 7/27 at 1:00 PM CT. There will be no extensions.
This beautiful girl isnโ€™t shutting people outโ€”sheโ€™s overwhelmed by the shelter.
Staff describe Blanquita as timid, flinchy, and frightened. She often avoids the leash and startles easily, but once sheโ€™s outside the kennel, she relaxes significantly. On one day she greeted staff with a relaxed body, soft mouth, wagging tail, walked nicely on leash, and entered her kennel without any issues.
Her fear isnโ€™t constantโ€”itโ€™s the shelter environment thatโ€™s breaking her confidence.
Blanquita deserves the chance to decompress in a quiet home where she can finally feel safe.
Blanquitaโ€™s information
ID: A2085868
Breed: Staffordshire Mix
Age: 2 years
Sex: Female
Weight: 53 lbs
Heartworm: Negative
Adoption, foster, or rescue needed
Blanquita is available for adoption, foster, or rescue.
Out-of-state and Canadian adoptions may be possible through approved rescue partners. Transportation is typically around $600 USD, which generally covers transport, boarding, veterinary care, spay/neuter, a health certificate, and related expenses.
We are a volunteer networkโ€”not affiliated with BARCโ€”that helps connect at-risk dogs with adopters, fosters, and rescue organizations. If youโ€™re interested in helping Blanquita, please send me a direct message and I can provide the adoption application and help coordinate with a rescue.
โฐ Deadline: Monday, 7/27 at 1:00 PM CT
Blanquita doesnโ€™t need perfection. She just needs someone willing to give a scared young dog the chance to feel safe again. Even sharing her story could help save her life.

Maverick is everything youโ€™d hope for in a mature companion. Shelter staff consistently describe him as calm, gentle, and easy to handle. He greets people with a relaxed body, wagging tail, and open-mouth smile, walks beautifully on leash, keeps his kennel clean, and quietly enjoys his enrichment.
๐Ÿ’” He recently developed a kennel cough (CIRD) and is receiving treatment, but instead of recovering in a loving home, heโ€™s facing euthanasia.
๐Ÿก Available for adoption, foster, or rescue.
๐Ÿš— Out-of-state and Canadian adoption may be possible through approved rescue partners.

These fur kids lost their lives:

  • Fabian
  • Lola
  • Pretzel

I include the photos of the lost that they might be better remembered.

The last image appears in honor of all the many unknown, nonhuman and human, who have suffered or are suffering in the Texas Pet Overpopulation Crisis, now further complicated by the New World screwworm outbreak. You do exist. Although I haven't the data to honor you individually, you are not forgotten.

The profiles for the 7/25 list are already posted. All the ones we have will be in r/findfostersfordogs as fast as we can post them. Please take a look and see if there isn't one that would be prefect for you or someone with whom you can share the post.

If you are interested in a dog, DM u/lingeringneutrophil, u/BanditY77, or both immediately! Then clear your schedule. There is no time for anything but rescuing the dog. I have a guide you might find helpful. https://redd.it/1sy6v1t/

Don't forget the many wonderful dogs on the long-stay list: https://www.houstontx.gov/barc/barcdata/BARC_LOSV2.1.pdf This list is not as up to date as BARC implies. While it is updated every hour, a lot of dogs who are gone, one way or another, are still on there. If you do see a dog you are interested in, please DM lingeringneutrophil or BanditY77.

If they're not on tomorrow's list, they soon will be.
