Matty's Heart & Soul Animal Rescue

Matty's story:I started to see Matty's picture posted on the MG Impound Dogs page in late October of 2012. Matty and his "mate", Athena, were in jail for bite quarantine. They were playing and a lady got scratched by either a tooth or a claw, and they could not determine by which dog. The owners knew Athena and Fatty (Matty's actual name from owner, Cheryl changed it because he was no Fatty) were there, but they didn't have the funds to pay for fees and vetting. Athena was rescued. From the time I saw Matty's picture, the one where he is sitting on Cheryl's shoes, I knew I needed him. I asked numerous big and small rescues if they would please pull Matty for me. Their answers were all the same, we have a blue Pit Bull you can adopt. No, it had to be Matty! Matty's time was coming near and they scheduled a euthanasia date. I was in tears daily. Finally, though, last minute, the day before he was to be killed, Amber from One of a Kind Pet Rescue said she would pull him for me! I was ecstatic! I picked Matty up from the impound on January 2nd, 2013. He wasn't perfect, but he was perfect for me...and he didn't become a statistic....he is truly my heart & soul. He brought Cheyenne and I out of a deep depression over losing Teddy, my Chow Chow, to Lymphoma. Matty started my learning journey into rescue. I havent been in very long. I have held many roles ( vetting, intake, foster, events and fundraising coordinator to just name a few) in the rescues I have been in, and I have fostered about 100 puppies. I was blinded, ignorant of all that was happening prior to Matty. My blinders were lifted, Matty and I, with some friends would like to make a bigger impact. Help more dogs and cats find their second chance at love and life just like Matty did. Wont you help us?Matty's Heart & Soul Animal Rescue. Mission is to bring hope back to the discarded, abandoned, neglected, and abused dogs and cats, and provide them with all they need in a loving foster family until they find their perfect forever home. To be their voice and right all wrongs.

Meet Snoopy

Howdy,  My name is Snoopy I am a Jack Russel Terrier mix and about four years old. I am e collar trained, potty trained, treadmill trained and walk like a gentleman on leash. I do great with other dogs and I don’t mind my foster mom’s cats, either. I know basic and advanced commands and need an owner with some dog savvy experience who is able to maintain the training I have and MUST stay consistent. I am true to the Terrier breed and I like to get my way. I will need an owner who can be the leader I need to keep the anxiety at bay. I am a super affectionate fella once I get to know you. I love giving kisses and lots of belly rubs. I am extremely food motivated and my foster mom tells me I’m such a “lover” I would do best in home with another dog that I can play with and gain confidence from - ideally with a fenced in yard or land. I would not do well in an apartment so please don’t apply for me if you live there - it just won’t work for me. My foster mom says that she’s even going to give whoever adopts me a training lesson with me so that she can train you how to best communicate with me. I’m crossing  my paws for my furrever home - if you are interested in me please apply online at https://mattysheartandsoulanimalrescue.rescuegroups.org/
