Pull up a chair—we’re getting a little vulnerable for a sec. It’s time we share more about Isabel and the @simonsits litter. This is a great opportunity to pull back the curtain on animal rescue: the unpredictability, the power of partnerships, and the very real challenges we face every day.

After completing our quarantine process, mama Isabel started showing signs of an upper respiratory infection. We got her to Victor Vet, and thanks to their thorough care and attention, additional testing revealed she was positive for Distemper, Bordetella, and Coronavirus.

For those who may not know, Canine Distemper is a highly contagious viral disease that impacts the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems—and can be fatal. It’s preventable through vaccination (so double-check that your pets are up to date!), but it’s also incredibly infectious, with a long incubation period that makes it tricky to detect early.

The good news: Isabel and her puppies are all doing really well, and we’re actively working through the logistics of what their adoption journey will look like. Huge thanks to our friends at @uwvetmed for guiding us through this, sponsoring gold-standard testing that would’ve cost us thousands, and helping us stay one step ahead.

We’re hopeful that everyone continues to stay healthy and that adoptions can move forward ASAP. If any additional veterinary care is needed, we’ll be doing everything possible to mitigate risk and protect future adopters and animals in our care.

Moments like this are powerful reminders that so much of this work is outside our control—we can only take things one day at a time. In the meantime, Isabel and her crew are getting a whole lot of love and high-level care, and we’re continuing to accept adoption interest.

And because no good educational rant would be complete without it: we’re in the thick of Tin Cup Giving Season. Your support during fundraisers like this is what makes our work possible. When animals in our program face something as serious as a disease outbreak, your generosity means we can focus on them first, and finances second. Thanks to @cftetonvalley, your donation dollars will go even further. ❤️

We’ve officially rescued and raised 1️⃣2️⃣7️⃣ mama dogs and their puppies this year — and counting! We also have more sanctuary animals on the property than ever before. And through our Canine Behavior Program, we’re supporting dogs, owners, shelters, fosters, and community members in meaningful, lasting ways.

There are countless animals still waiting to turn the page. Through @cftetonvalley Tin Cup, we can help rewrite their stories — together. 📖 ❤️

Happy almost weekend from the puppies and moms on property! Here’s a quick update from our Puppy Palaces:

🐕 Puppy Palace 1: The @simonsits litter!
The good news? They’ll be adoptable through us @askasanimals.
The not-so-good news? They were exposed to an illness, so we’re taking things day by day. This work isn’t easy—it’s constantly evolving and full of challenges, but we’re doing everything we can.

🐾 Puppy Palace 2: Betsy and the Charlotte’s Web litter officially graduated this week and are now adoptable through @animaladoptioncenterjhwy! Our team flipped the palace, and we’re getting ready to welcome a new @rilos_rescue litter on Saturday!

🐶 Puppy Palace 3: Mazzie + her Birthstone litter + her adopted @artscoffeeshop litter
This beautiful blended family will be adoptable through @idahohumanesociety and @rilos_rescue at the end of July!

Never a dull moment here on the farm. Thank you for continuing to support us and our mission!

Mazzie has been an absolute rockstar of a mom! Not only is she caring for her own 8 puppies, but she also lovingly adopted 6 more who lost their mom. She’s taking it all in stride—just like our community during Tin Cup (@cftetonvalley), lifting up the incredible nonprofits working hard through this six-week fundraising stretch.

We see you. We APPRECIATE you. 🫶

This time of year always reminds us how powerful our community is—rallying together to make sure nonprofits like ours can keep doing the work that matters. ❤️ x ♾️

Betsy and her kids have come a long way in life. This family's journey started in Los Angeles with the amazing people at @thespayceproject. Through the power of collaboration, they made their way to us, and next week, they begin their adoption journey through the @animaladoptioncenterjhwy . Through it all, @modernbeast has advocated and helped support this amazing group of dogs. As we get ready for Betsy and her family to move on to their next phase, we celebrated with some puppy yoga at @modernbeast with @dayhikeapp and @animaladoptioncenterjhwy

We are truly grateful for the community locally and beyond, who help us rewrite the ending for all the dogs that come through our Puppy Palace program.

Currently, we are in the midst of a very impactful 6-week giving period called the Tin Cup Challenge where donations are matched by the @cftetonvalley challenger fund. This is the time that your $5 donation goes even further, and we would be so grateful for your financial support to make our work possible.

The link to make a donation is in our bio.

From the bottoms of our paws, thank you for being on this journey with us, and together, we can continue to rewrite the ending for so many more animals.

Your donations through Tin Cup help us rewrite the stories of animals who were simply dealt a tough hand. Because of the Tin Cup Challenge — and the generosity of @cftetonvalley and their challengers — every dollar you give during this campaign is partially matched, making an even bigger impact on the lives we care for.

Thank you for being part of this work. Let’s rewrite some stories together. 🐶 🐷 🐱 🐐 🐓 🐰

We have some very exciting news—Isabel and the @simonsits litter will be adoptable through Aska’s Animals starting in early July! 💥

After seeing the incredible response to their story, we realized something: there are amazing potential adopters right here in our own backyard. Instead of sending them to an adoption partner and adding another stop on their journey, we’re cutting out the middle step and placing them directly into loving homes—hopefully yours. 🐶

For those new here, adoption isn’t usually our lane—it’s a whole operation of its own. We focus on the work many of our partners can’t do: caring for moms and litters in-house for extended stays. And our partners? They’re experts at managing the logistics and long-term follow-up that comes with finding the perfect home. But this time, it just made sense to keep it in the family.

A little about this crew: Isabel is a sweet and curious dachshund mix, and we’re still learning more about her. Her puppies are just over five weeks old and likely to stay small-breed—we don’t know who dad was, but the pups are confident, social, and adorable. Four girls and one boy.

If you’re interested in being considered for adoption, send us an email at info@askasanimals.org with a little about yourself. We can’t wait to find these pups the homes they deserve. ❤️

Meet the @simonsits Litter 🐾
A small tribute to Isabel (@simonsits) and the waves she’s making in animal rescue. A reminder that one person fostering a dog in need can truly move the needle in the right direction for animal welfare.

This mama dog—who we’ve named Isabel, after the internet’s favorite foster mom—and her puppies (including little Tiki, named after her current foster pup) arrived today from @epanimalsvc thanks to the incredible team at @dogismycopilotinc. Their backstory is bleak—they were found as strays with not much more info. Unfortunately, Texas is currently the state with the highest annual number of animal euthanasias.

We always prioritize our regional rescue partners first, but when there’s space to help others that likely have a much more grim outcome, we rally. Hence… four litters of puppies currently seeking shelter with us here on the farm.

If you’re not already following @simonsits, she is doing game-changing work for animals in need. Watching Tiki’s journey is a beautiful reminder of how fostering can change one dog’s life—and ripple out to change so many more. Isabel and her puppies will be adoptable with our friends at @idahohumanesociety when they’re ready in a few weeks.

And don’t forget to be brave like Tiki. ✨
