❤️TUSTIN UPDATE: RESCUED❤️

🇺🇸❤️ Happy Independence Day, Tustin. You’re finally free. ❤️🇺🇸

While America celebrates freedom today, we’re celebrating Tustin’s freedom too.

Just days ago, he sat in the Shelter completely shut down. He wouldn’t even lift his head. He had given up.

I promised him he would get out, and today that promise came true... Thank God.

Tustin is officially on his way to Fat Cow Foundation, where he’ll have room to run, people who understand his breed, and the chance to finally live the life every dog deserves.

A huge thank you to Fat Cow Foundation for saying yes to Tustin, to Kai, and for already committing to save Spike next. Your commitment to California’s shelter dogs is incredible.

This rescue is another reminder that it truly takes a village—people visiting shelters, taking videos, networking, rescues stepping up, transporters, fosters, adopters, and everyone who shares the posts..

Want to follow Tustin’s journey? Follow Fat Cow Foundation for updates.

Today, America celebrates freedom.
Today, Tustin gets to live it. 🇺🇸🐾❤️

🐾❤️ THANK YOU, PYR COMMUNITY ❤️🐾

This weekend was something special.

For a few days, it felt like urgent Pyr after urgent Pyr was being posted. Dogs were running out of time. Hearts were breaking. And yet, this community showed up in the most incredible way.

People opened their homes. People donated. People drove hundreds of miles. People networked tirelessly. People said “yes” when these dogs needed them most.

Because of that:

🐾 Jemma is SAFE!
🐾 Bo**er is SAFE!
🐾 Alfie is SAFE!
🐾 Blizzard is SAFE!
🐾 Chewy is SAFE!
🐾 Koichi is SAFE!
🐾 Ethel is SAFE!
🐾 Oso is SAFE!
🐾 Princess is SAFE!

These aren’t just names on a list. These are lives saved. Futures rewritten. Dogs who will sleep safely tonight because this community refused to give up on them.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to every foster, adopter, rescue, transporter, donor, and advocate who played a part. Whether you saved a dog directly or simply shared a post, you mattered.

As we celebrate these victories, please don’t forget the dogs still waiting:

💔 Charlotte | 3 YO | Carson
https://animalcare.lacounty.gov/dacc-details/?animalId=A5778336

💔 Sweet Unnamed Girl | 5 YO | Female | San Jacinto
https://24petconnect.com/RVSD3Adopt/Details/RVSD3/A1919301

💔 Oso | 6 Months | Male | Lancaster
https://animalcare.lacounty.gov/dacc-details/?animalId=A5777789

Let’s keep the momentum going for the dogs still waiting behind kennel doors.

Thank you, Pyr community. You continue to prove that when we come together, lives are saved and miracles happen. ❤️🐾

Special thank you to our volunteer drivers : Carrie, Shanna, Suzanne, Nancy, Amy, James and Randi 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

🚗🐾 We’ll post more rescue stories soon… but today we just want to say THANK YOU.

To our incredible volunteer drivers — Suzanne, Carrie, Judy, Minh, Rebecca, Randi, Chris, Vanessa, Carol, Dennis, Liliana, James, Marlene, Shanna, Lori, Julianna, Nancy, Monica, Catherine, Liz, Amanda, Kaylene, Lianela, Kate, Mari, Wendy, Jordan, Jenine, Alize, Leigh, Laura, and Ana — thank you for the life-saving rides you’ve given to dogs in need. 🤍

We’ve been so busy coordinating transports that we haven’t had time to post nearly enough, but please know… every mile matters. Every ride changes a life.

California shelters are overwhelmed, and too many dogs desperately need help getting to fosters, rescues, adopters, and safety. We are receiving more transport requests than ever and urgently need more volunteer drivers across California.

If you’re willing to help give dogs a second chance at life, please sign up and join our rescue transport community. 🐾🤍

‼️CALIFORNIA — DRIVERS NEEDED‼️

Transportation is one of the biggest reasons dogs don’t make it out of shelters.

We’re building a statewide network through California Rides to the Rescue — and we need drivers in ALL areas, especially:

📍Bakersfield
📍Fresno
📍Modesto
📍Los Angeles
📍San Diego
📍Santa Clarita

You don’t have to commit full-time.
You just show up when you can.

🚗 Even ONE ride can save a life.

Allegra was in danger at Devore when adoption interest came through — and everything shifted.

Northern Nevada LGD Rescue stepped up to tag him, and California Rides To The Rescue volunteers jumped into action to coordinate his freedom ride.

He’s now officially home.

Thank you to the adopter who chose him, the rescue who made it possible, and our drivers who are bridging the miles between a shelter kennel and a forever home.

This is how lives are saved — together.

If you want to be part of the chain that gets them home, join our volunteer driver network.
