Buddha Pooch Dog Rescue Project

🌈Our Beloved Billy & Clifford🌈

I am thoroughly shattered into a million pieces and still not even close to the person I was.
The last several weeks have brought such immense pain & utter disbelief... a heartache I have never felt in my entire life.

A month ago, we had to say goodbye to our earth angel Clifford after several weeks of him courageously battling an autoimmune disease called ITP.
Three days later, we had to let our treasured Billy go after he was diagnosed with inoperable cancer.

My two soul dogs, two loves of my life, and two dogs who gave me true purpose and changed who I was forever.

Billy has been at the core of my heart and the center of my world. My #1... I loved him the mosties (I used to whisper that to him every day).
For twelve and a half years, he led me to become a foster, to start my own dog boarding/day care business, and ultimately to establish my dog rescue.

For five and a half years, Clifford was the kindest-hearted dog, the most gentle of souls and the most endearing boy.
Clifford was the 5th dog I pulled into my rescue, and a constant source of pure love and innocence.

While Billy helped spark me to start my rescue, Clifford was a constant reminder to keep going.

Billy and Clifford are bonded forever, soul brothers. That is the only peace I feel from losing them both so close together.
While Clifford was sick, Billy never left his side and only showed signs of illness the day before Clifford passed. I truly feel they carried each other through and are trying to do the same for John & me now.
Ohhh, I miss you both so deeply; it’s unbearable- I can’t breathe.
In this immense pain, comes a sort of stillness:
I am eternally grateful to have been loved by you both, to be your safe havens to call you both mine, and to experience the best days of my life as a family.
I will go within my heart to find you both because I know we’re forever together.

Billy and Clifford, two extraordinary dogs who leave behind incredible legacies that will live on not only in John and me, but in all the rescue dogs we save.
My babies… I love you both & owe you my entire life

🌈HERBIE THE LOVEBUG🌈

Our hearts are so deeply broken to hear that Herbie the Lovebug has crossed rainbow bridge today🥹

He was a magical dog that touched the spirit of everyone he met & was a personal favorite💜

From his Mon:

Herbie the Lovebug was so, so special and pure joy.
We were lucky to have him for one and a half years.
It’s painful knowing I won’t see that sweet face again or kiss him or feel his smooth head and bat ears and his adorable hippo body.

We love you Herbie the Lovebug & will be together again💜

🌈Tilly🌈

We heard from Tilly’s Mom that she crossed rainbow bridge this past week🙏🏻
Tilly was our 60th dog we pulled into our rescue back in November 2023 when she was removed from a home due to abuse & neglect & brought to the Associated Humane Soc.-Newark 💔
Our Tilly had both behavioral & medical issues that demanded an adopter that understood her needs… to take it slow, earn her trust & be patient.
After being returned once after only three days, Tilly found her happily ever after with her new & AMAZING family.
They understood Tilly’s needs, took their time & provided the best home for Tilly full of new adventures with her Buddy😊
She lived the best three years of her life in the loving arms of MaryAnne Scuderi & we are forever grateful to her for showing Tilly finally… what love feels like❤️‍🩹

Run free little girl… we will see you again💜

Resting “adopt me” face is brought to you today by Marnie

Marnie has been in our rescue since July & has been thriving in her foster home Jennifer Calpin🥰

Marnie has two foster brothers to play with (BODRP alums Jimmy & Albert) & is loving life out of the shelter🙏🏻

Marnie was abandoned with her puppies after her “owner” bred her twice. Marnie then found herself in a high risk shelter & was in danger of losing her life after her puppies were adopted😔

She has had such an awful life but she is quite the exceptional little girl & grateful to have a second chance💖💖
