• Last night I was asked to help with a puppy mill bust in West TN. I didn’t hesitate, grabbed supplies, asked a rescue friend, @theseanob, to join, and we headed out. After we exited the interstate, we encountered 8-9+ cardinals that flew directly in front of my car. We took that as a sign that our guardian angels were with us and that we would need them. 😇 I don’t have the words to describe the scene last night. I just don’t. It was the worst of humanity. I’m exhausted, overwhelmed and heartbroken. I think I finally went to bed at 4:30AM. Over 500 dogs, mostly Dachshunds, were pulled from the property. They also pulled Sharpeis, Dobermans and Weimaraners. STOP buying dogs from cute little websites. Unless you walk every inch of the property and meet the parents, you’re contributing to this bullshit. And if you saw those cute little mamas and puppies IRL, dehydrated, caked in feces, sleeping in their own filth, maybe you would think twice. I am fortunate to get to work with two amazing rescues, @tailsofhopedogrescue and @tndachshund. Combined, they pulled over 65 dogs last night. A small dent in the 500+ dogs, but enough to overwhelm two small, but mighty organizations. So click on their pages and DONATE, send supplies, apply to foster, apply to adopt, spread the word, send alllll the good vibes. Thank you to Ginger for trusting me to pull 13 dogs, to the Dream Team onsite, Jana, Jason, @chinkorean, Kim, Terri, etc for getting 💩 done. HUGE SHOUTOUT to @guardiansofrescue, Madison County Sherriffs Office, Madison County Fire, Search & Rescue teams, & TN Fire Chaplains Emergency Response for a coordinated, well done effort. #adoptdontshop #puppymillsurvivor
