Owner of 3 Dogs Losing Home

These three dogs need our help to pull them out of a desperate situation. Their owner, Tery, does not have the utilities or food to feed her pets. Her husband is in jail and she is currently being foreclosed on. She must be out of her house by Dec. 26th. Thanks to a kind neighbor the dogs are being fed and given water. She has also taken these pictures to help spread the word about their situation.

The owner lives in Irving very close to the S MacArthur Blvd/W Shady Grove Rd intersection. She is living in a little RV that is parked in her drive way, I guess because there are not utilities to the house.

Neighbors also found two feral cats on the property, one adult and one very young. The kitten was taken home to care for, but the mother was not willing to interact with them.

Details on the three dogs:

One very very overweight German Sheppard mix, female, 15 years old. Then there are two black lab mixes One of them Maddy has "skin allergies" and the other one's name is Lucy, both are about 7 years old. It appears to me they have some missing teeth, they are not current on shots/heartworm treatment, and are not spayed.

Please, please please if you can help this lady either fostering or adopting any of her dogs please give her a call. Contact Tery at 972-955-0424.

Charlie & Jack Need a Home- ADOPTED!

Charlie & Jack have found their forever home! Thank you to everyone who helped spread the word.

These adorable male golden retrievers desperately need a home. They have been with friends of mine who regretfully admit they should not have taken them on with the busy/hectic schedule of their family. As of the last week, the dogs have been in their kennels in the back yard (as shown in the picture) because the fence is broken and they were getting out. This is NO way for these babies to live.
The cutie on the left is Charlie, he’s almost 3. The other is Jack and he is not quite a year. Neither are neutered. I dog sat for Charlie when he was about 6 months old. He was super sweet, but VERY active. Based on the lack of time the family has spent with the boys, I would assume they need a lot of love and training. I think they may have papers on the dogs, they are reportedly full breed.
Please feel free to pass this on to anyone who may be interested. The owner’s information is below in case someone is interested and wants to contact him directly:

While it would be ideal for these dogs to be adopted together, at this point they need good homes so urgently, they can be split up.
