Chewy came to us in December 2019. He was rescued from a puppy mill situation and rushed into the vet for a severe case of ringworm, coccidia, and leg malformation due to a nutritional deficiency. He had a very poor prognosis upon arrival. We brought him home and treated his skin condition and coccidia with veterinary assistance. We did physical therapy and started him on a proper diet to correct his malformed back legs. He was soon able to use his back legs properly. Chewy quickly became a daddy's boy. In April of 2023 he was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis and has since been put on a special diet to help prevent attacks. Chewy is now 4 years old and enjoys sitting in the recliner with his daddy and playing with his toys.

His nubb curves into towards his rump and will have to be surgically removed now. He is currently 1 year old and loves his toys.
Walter came to us as a runt in July 2023. He is half the weight he should be and has severe stomach problems and jaw malformation due to a severe underbite. We have to watch him carefully and sometimes aid him in clearing his nose because he regurgitates his food. Walter loves playing with his toys. He recently turned one year old.
We are a 501c3 Non-profit organization that runs solely on the donations of the public. Voiceless Moments Dog Sanctuary and Rescue is located in Erin, TN. We do service the areas of Stewart and Houston Counties. These areas have no animal shelter or animal control. In emergencies we do aid others in a case-by-case basis. We specialize in the care of special needs dogs that are under 25 pounds. Due to the rising need for help with the stray and abandoned population of our service area, we will take these animals into our care on a case by case basis.
Our family started rescuing dogs in 2011. I, Charlee, the founder and director of Voiceless Moments Dog Sanctuary, worked with a local rescue in Stewart County for 10 years. It seemed that most of the medical and senior dogs came to live with me. After a discussion, it was decided that we would branch off and start a sanctuary for small dogs in this category. Unfortunately, not many individuals wish to adopt a dog if it is senior or has a disability. Our main goal is to make sure families have the resources and knowledge to keep their pets at home. We step in and take the dog into our care when the owner can no longer care for the dog. We provide food, water, shelter, and all medical care that is deemed necessary by a licensed veterinarian. Dogs that come into the sanctuary with a medical disability will not be adopted out. They become a part of the Voiceless Moments family and live out the remainder of their days in our care. If, someday, the animal is deemed healthy enough to no longer receive medical care, a suitable family will be found for the dog.
Your donations will go towards all care that animals in house receive. This includes food, basic necessities, and medical care.
