Last week TSR stepped up to help a family whose mom had passed (RIP), a known backyard sheltie breeder. The family didn't know that TSR had previously established an open "call us anytime, if you need help" relationship with the breeder in 2020 when we took in five shelties. January 5, 2023 we assisted the family with SEVEN shelties.

The situation suggests end of life planning by pet owners is needed to ensure their pets are in safe, responsible hands when you depart this world. The breeder may have thought her daughter was responsible enough to care for the shelties, unfortunately, this wasn't the case. All but two shelties we brought in had lost 6 pounds since their last vet visit. All were infested in fleas (the worst we've ever seen). The shelties are very grateful to be clean, flea free, receiving regular meals, and many snuggles, belly rubs and much love. Thanks to the foster homes and transporters who volunteered for this very important job in sheltie rescue.

Seven intact shelties, with only a rabies vaccination, wow, lots of green papers to nurse these furbabies back to health. Donations greatly appreciated! Click the donate button on the left side of this page, or via snail mail TSR, PO Box 426, Youngsville, NC 27596.

Sheltie Blessings.

We could really use your help. Many of the dogs that come in to our care need treatment beyond a routine exam, and your donations for their medical needs are always welcome. You can send your tax-deductible contributions at any time via PayPal on this website or by mail to Triangle Sheltie Rescue, P.O. Box 426, Youngsville, NC 27596.
