December 10, 2023 – Rikki’s Tenth Day of Christmas

On the Tenth Day of Christmas, look what came to Rikki’s,

ten crotchety creaking canines,

Did you know most of the dogs at Rikki’s Refuge were given up simply because they got old? They couldn’t keep up on the morning jog, catching the frisbee got harder, those long hikes were just too much, they needed to get outside to pee more often, even waking people up in the night asking, or they had accidents. And they got dumped. The lucky ones ended up at Rikki’s Refuge where they can spend their retirement years with friends and lots of love at Doggy Downs.

Other dogs came to Rikki’s Refuge when their owners felt they needed too much medical care; diabetics, arthritis, seizures, kidney or heart issues. It’s costly, both the medication and the vet visits.

I’ll never understand why so many people don’t love their dogs enough to keep them their whole lives. When I get old and don’t walk so fast or need some medications, I sure hope those who love me don’t throw me out like trash. Don’t you?

Won’t you please help one of the dogs at Rikki’s Refuge today, or donate to help us be able to care for another dog with no safe place to go? Thank you.
