Baby Needs a Special Home

Baby is a six-month-old Border Collie Mix with special needs, who’s looking for someone to love her and take care of her.  She needs a very special Forever Home. 

She was adopted, but was returned to the rescue because she has severe Hip Dysplasia.  She is going to have to be on a special dog food & joint supplements for the rest of her life.  She will eventually need surgery.   Her Foster Mom (a kind-hearted Barkefellers staff member) takes her for shots every four days.   In spite of her difficulties, Baby is a real sweetheart and so very easy to love!  Please consider making Baby a part of your family! 

If you can’t give her a home, please spread the word to help her chances at finding a home!  The rescue is also accepting donations for her medical care while she’s waiting to be adopted. 

If you’re interested in adopting, donating or just want more information about Baby, please email Indy Paws Rescue here: indypawsrescue@gmail.com or contact the Franklin Animal Clinic here: Franklin Animal Clinic - Contact Us.

Donation Drive for Southside Animal Shelter

Over the holidays, Barkefellers participated in a donation drive to help the Southside Animal Shelter. We decided on this shelter because they are a no-kill shelter, so the animals could potentially spend a long time there before being adopted.

We were extremely impressed with how generous our customers were! Every day we were adding to our pile in the lobby. Some larger items even had to be placed in a back room. Among these donations were dog and cat food, cat litter, medicines, blankets, beds, cat towers, toys, leashes, collars, shampoo, cleaning products, flea treatments, and even many monetary donations. We had customers come in with their arms full of gently used or store bought items.

Our lobby, full of donations!

You can just barely see the original "donation box" hidden behind all of the donations!

It's safe to say that we quickly outgrew our "donation box" and the entire lobby became our donation place.

Rick, the owner of Barkefellers, also agreed to match the donations with a check to Southside Animal Shelter.

This is something we plan on doing every year. Being a business that is so involved with animals, it's nice to help these less fortunate furbabies. Our entire staff was beaming with the overwhelming success this year!
