Help Us Keep Saying Yes!

Every week, Vermont English Bulldog Rescue hears about dogs who need help — dogs in overcrowded shelters, dogs impacted by family hardship, and dogs without access to the care they deserve.

The question is never whether they deserve help.

The question is whether we have the resources to say yes.

We are a fully volunteer-run rescue working to keep pace with rising medical, transport, and care costs. Some dogs need only routine care; others require significant medical support. What they all share is the need for safety, compassion, and a second chance.

This is what rescue looks like in real life:

• Stepping in when an owner passes away or enters assisted living

• Responding to cruelty cases here in our own community

• Helping dogs abandoned at shelters down south as they become overwhelmed

In recent months, that’s meant:

• $2,000+ in vet care for two senior dogs whose owner entered assisted living

• $2,000+ saving 6 Chihuahuas down South who were scheduled to be euthanized the following day unless we took them in

• $500 spay surgery for a Vermont dog whose owner passed away

• Taking in a dog removed from a cruelty case in Chittenden County

• $500 for treatment of pyometra and anemia

• $900 tumor removal surgery

These aren’t extraordinary situations — they’re the everyday realities of rescue.

Your support helps ensure that when the next call comes in, we can continue to say yes.
