NaBloWriMo - Sunday Shelter Me - Boykin Rescue

Last week I featured PawnHand Rescue out of Goldsboro NC, operated by Melody Drew.

For this week’s Shelter Me I’m focusing on a wonderful lady local to North Carolina. She’s been rescuing dogs for 13 years. This week I’m focusing on Boykin’s Animal Rescue of Wilson; though usually focusing on small dogs and cats, but never too busy, too tired or too full to offer a helping hand.

I've made many donations to Cindy and she’s always answered my calls when I pull Chihuahua mama’s out of freezing cold temps. She’s there with a warm house and a comfy bed for all these misplaced little ones. Cindy never turns away an animal and has always been there for these guys. Most of the time using her own money to rehabilitate these dogs. As long as I have known her she's always been there with open arms.

Over the past few years, with her health declining Cindy still continued to take in rescues. She’s suffered through back and neck surgery as well as a cuts and scratches and still held on strong for the animals.

Earlier this week I got some sad news. Cindy will be going in for a hip replacement and then spinal surgery before she has both knees replaced. She and her husband feel that with this coming up it would be best for her to not only stop bringing in new rescues, but to also re-home the ones she has there.

For today’s Shelter Me, I’m offering much love to Cindy and her family and posting pictures of these dogs that she has available. They are all fully vetted and ready to go to new loving homes. Please take a moment to look at their pictures to see if one of these lovely animals, that Cindy helped get a new lease on life would be a fit for your home. If you can’t adopt, please share.
