At Beartha we stay pawsome with our furry friends! We are working towards starting our Program to allow individuals that are displaced to have a place for their furbaby to stay while they get back on their feet. Also foster animals from our local Animal Shelter to help them create more space to help other furbabies in need. Some people may not know this but some animal shelters are at full capacity and sometimes families have to call months ahead in order to make an appointment. Due to that some people go to extreme measures and may leave their pet at the location, the pet becomes a stray, or the people and the individual lives in the street. Pets are family and shouldn’t be left behind. Our future goal is to be able to have a location where we can take in both the paw parent and the pet but doing this is the step in the right direction.??Between 5% to 10% of homeless people in the United States own pets (mainly dogs and/or cats). Of the 241,117 dogs and cats that entered North Carolina shelters, 170,753 found positive placements, while 47,652 were killed (76% were cats), for a save rate of 70.82%. 25.58% of North Carolina shelters are no-kill (a state is considered to be no-kill when every brick-and-mortar shelter serving and/or located within the state has a save rate of 90% or higher). If you have any questions about our pet care services or ?need temp stay due to financial hardship and/or resources for you or your pet please reach out to us at [email protected] ?

Homeless individuals living with dogs on the streets face unique and significant challenges as they strive to survive together. These individuals often have to choose between staying with their pets and accessing services, as many shelters do not accommodate animals. This forces them to remain on the streets, where finding enough food, water, and healthcare for both themselves and their dogs is a daily struggle. Despite these hardships, the bond between a homeless person and their dog provides essential emotional support and companionship, offering a sense of protection and loyalty that is invaluable in such dire circumstances. Efforts to assist this population include creating pet-friendly shelters, offering mobile veterinary services, and community outreach programs that provide necessities like food and medical care. Addressing the needs of homeless people and their pets requires a compassionate and inclusive approach that recognizes the profound connection between them. Cristian Ruben is a unique filmmaker and documentarian with a journalistic background. His single focus, his one mission, is to record the stories of individual rescuers and rescue groups in the trenches that help our homeless cats and dogs, telling their stories with sometimes heartbreaking images of their journey to save the lives of our pets. It is very obvious from watching interviews with Cristian, or speaking with him, that his dedication to getting the dramatic films that are needed to inspire viewers to act comes from a deep sense of love for our cats and dogs. He feels their pain and, through his excellent ability to capture dramatic scenes on camera, tries to ensure that viewers also empathize with the plight of these animals. They are lost, abandoned, discarded, and left to fend for themselves in hostile environments. To accomplish his mission, Cristian plans to film in all 50 states for a minimum of 45 days to create a one-hour film for each state. We are hoping to secure ongoing sponsorship for the 50-state project. iFilmHeroes.com Please consider making a tax-deductible donation.

2024 was a journey. In many cases, just putting one foot in front of the other and hoping for the best. What I learned - ??Support systems are crucial. Friends and family for love and comfort, and people with diversified mindsets and skills to surround yourself with for your own self-growth. ??You CAN hit the ground running on a new idea or concept without a plan and still end up successful. But having a plan makes it much easier, faster and so much less stress. ??There are some people that will be oil to your water. No matter what you do or how hard you try, those people will find ways to put you down while wearing a smile. Let them go. Sooner rather than later. Accomplishments - ??Started a 501c3 non-profit -FBCA, Inc. - Friends of Baker County Animals. Adopted out 4 kittens, developed a partnership that saved 28 cats/kittens from being homeless on the streets and had over 120+ cats/kittens spayed/neutered in just 4 months. ??Organized and hosted my first fundraiser - Heroes for Hounds - by partnering with the local American Legion. 3 days of activities, one dog adopted from Baker County Animal Control, and raised over $10k which was shared between local non-profits for veterans, dog and cat rescues, and spay/neuter efforts. ??Became a board member for FIX THEM ALL - what a wonderful organization! This group truly cares about the wellbeing of animals and strives to do all they can to create and maintain programs for rural counties in North Central Florida to subsidize spay/neuter surgeries for dogs and cats, making it affordable for anyone and to help curb the ever rising numbers of strays, dumps and homeless animals here in Florida. ??Started an AirBnB - I had no idea how this would go and have set my expectations low. But….first month bookings were 16 days booked out of 19 available. My resolutions for 2025 are less tangible than previous years - ??Spend MORE time with family and friends - not just the big moments and holidays. ??MAKE the time to plan out concepts and ideas. I can accomplish more when I’m proactive versus reactive. Plus it’s less stressful and more cost-effective. ??Be Kind - to others but especially myself. I always strive for this and always will. Stay more in my lane, focus on what I can control, let go of what I can’t, forgive but don’t forget, and while I can’t be perfect, I can be better. ??Be grateful - for my job that affords me to live a comfortable life and allows me the flexibility and financial stability to pursue my personal endeavors. For my family and friends for being supportive, loving, gracious, and patient with me this year. For God - who I don’t pray to or thank enough. He has been with me so much this year and has truly made the roads I’ve taken much easier than they could have been, and clearer to see they were the right path. I only want love, happiness, and prosperity for you all. Make 2025 a year you can reflect on and be truly proud of yourself. Love you all ??

Can you make a difference to animal shelters if you can't adopt or foster? Absolutely YES! Summer is a particularly exciting time for shelters. With warm weather comes an influx of pets, and while it might seem challenging, it's also an opportunity for communities to come together and support these wonderful animals. Trends come and go—during the pandemic, many people adopted puppies for companionship. Now, with life returning to a busy routine, some find they need extra help caring for their pets. That's where our incredible community steps in to ensure every pet finds the love and care they deserve. There's a constant flow of animals, especially dogs, who are ready to be loved. This is where YOU can shine. Now is the perfect time to make a difference, even if you can't adopt a dog. (Though if you can, there are HUNDREDS of wagging tails ready for a forever home at shelters around the country. ??. Donate food. Most shelters welcome unopened bags or cans of food, so if you have any surplus or your pet didn't take to a certain brand, consider donating it to your local shelter. ? ? Donate your time. From comforting animals to prepping toys and treats, there's always something you can help with. Your time and compassion can make a world of difference, ensuring these pets feel loved and cared for. As a visual storyteller, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful a single image can be in raising awareness and driving action. Through my work, I strive to capture the essence of these incredible animals and the tireless efforts of those who care for them. Every snapshot tells a story, and every story has the potential to inspire others to act. Together, let’s bridge the gap between animal rescue and the booming pet industry, using empathy and connection to make a tangible impact. Whether it's through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, your actions matter. Let’s make a difference—one wagging tail at a time. ?? ??

This is what all shelters should be especially in this country with all of the billions profited by huge corporations from animal lovers and advocates Why are we not focusing more on solutions to save them? Millions of healthy innocent animals are being killed in this country. Contact elected officials and big advocacy groups to demand change immediately. I post daily for animals on kill lists who have been abandoned and betrayed and deserve a loving home but instead are being murdered. I am only one voice. We need more voices! We need solutions. Maybe we should focus on affordable spay and neuter programs and programs to focus on helping loving responsible owners to keep their animals in difficult times. We need stronger laws to protect animals from irresponsible breeders and owners and harsher consequences for these subhumans who abuse abandon and neglect them. We need a national registry and chip animals to ensure the adopted pet parents live up to the life commitment they are pledging to love and protect the animal who depend on them. We need to monitor and hold all shelters and rescues accountable as well to ensure animals are protected and treated with respect. We need to encourage and connect service and companion dog groups to adopt from shelters. There are so many puppies and young purebred pups o. these lists that can be saved and trained. There are so many more solutions. We all need to speak louder to be the change they need and deserve! They can't speak but you can. Contact elected officials and big advocacy groups and always repost for them to help save them. Be their voice and demand change! We can save them all if we all speak up!
