We got a few URGENT plea from the Conroe Animal Adoption Center for a deaf dog who needed rescue in Texas.
From Linda:
I wrote Linda back and told her we would offer a $200 sponsorship fee to a non-profit rescue who would take Eli into their rescue and then get him into foster care so he can be trained and all applicants can be screened through a rescue.
Our Deaf Dogs Rock community immediately put out a URGENT rescue plea on Social Media calling out all 501c3 Rescues in Texas to let them know our community would financially sponsor Eli into rescue. We were so excited when we heard Renee Lundgren from Muttley Farms Rescue in Valley View Texas because they pulled Eli to safety and gladly took us up on our sponsorship offer. Eli is now currently in foster care. We mailed out a sponsorship check to Muttley Farms the following day. Stay tuned for Eli’s adoption listing coming soon!

Update from Muttley Farm’s Facebook Page
From Eli: Eli – I just love to wrestle with my Dad. It’s also fun when the others join in. I’m learning so many things. They are also learning that I like to sit in your lap so move over. Here I come! The family that had me before said I barked all the time but I never bark here. Maybe that’s because I get plenty of attention from both humans and animals.
A big shout out to Linda Scholl for sending me Eli’s info and for being his advocate to make sure he got out of the shelter ASAP. Also thank you to Renee Lundgren and the Muttley Farms Team for saving Eli and also to his foster family for taking him in. Thanks also to our amazing Deaf Dogs Rock community because without your generous support, we would not be able to offer financial sponsorship to dogs like Eli. I think it also gives new rescue partners an opportunity to rescue their first deaf dog and get the “deaf dog experience” under their belt.
According to my deaf dogs Nitro, Bud and myself, you all ROCK! Christina Lee – Deaf Dogs Rock
