Peggy has found her forever home! She is now starting a new chapter filled with belly rubs, long walks, and endless cuddles.
A huge thank you to Alfred Paculba and his family for opening their hearts and home.

Eleanor
The absolute best thing about this work, is finding the best homes for our rescues! While, of course, the Sanctuary is better than life on the streets, it's now overcrowded and dilapidated.
The dogs and cats get the best care we can give them because of your support, but nothing tops having a good loving home.
This is what Eleanor got yesterday!
After 1,145 days at the shelter, she now has her own family and a beautiful big home.
We rescued her on Christmas Eve, 2021 from the local pound, just before she was about to be euthanized.
Her stay at the Sanctuary all that time has been supported by her sponsors Tiara and Ruddi. Thank you so much for being her surrogate family.
Her new home is on a neighboring island, which was a 10 hour round trip. But so worth it to look at her enjoying her new home.
Just 2 hours after we left her, she had claimed the couch!
Thank you Cristina and family for making Eleanor's dream come true.

Ryder
Little Ryder, rescued in November 2024, never seemed to put on the weight of his siblings Rylee and Raya. With Distemper still making its presence felt, sadly this was too much for Ryder who passed suddenly on 8 February 2025.
We are so sorry you didn't make it Ryder, but hopefully Rylee and Raya will continue to thrive, and maybe find the home you were never to see.

Our beautiful girl Tippi died on 1 March 2025.
We found her hobbling around the side of the road with one foot hacked off. She was very thin but still incredibly feisty. We had plans to amputate her damaged leg once we had built up her strength.
Tragically, she contracted distemper in the December outbreak at the Sanctuary.
She came very close to death but fought and regained her strength. However, the virus had entered her brain and nervous system and she was left with the characteristic twitch.
This in itself is not a huge problem. Many dogs go on to live full quality lives.
But distemper can affect every organ, and in Tippi's case, over the next two weeks she deteriorated rapidly, and her twitching got much worse.
Tippi
She was still eating a lot but not gaining weight. We did every test possible and consulted with a number of vets, but she wasn't getting better, despite giving her every medication available.
She passed away surrounded by the people she loved the most.
Thank you to everyone who donated for her and sent love to her, and especially to her sponsors Susana, Jo and Brandon
Run free, my sweet, sweet baby girl.
Forever in our hearts
