Look at Me Now - Terra

Big Heart first learned about Terra when a woman walked into a business in Vancouver, pulling a suitcase on wheels. She asked if they “take dogs” and the owner said no. When she unzipped the suitcase, a 35 pound white Eskimo fell out and an overwhelming stench of urine and feces wafted up. Her coat was tangled with mats, her muscles were atrophied, and she looked unbearably sad. Poor Terra had been locked in a bathroom her whole life with her muzzle wrapped in wire.  All we can say is LOOK AT HER NOW!


At start of care...

Spotlight on Volunteers - Judy

In 2005 Big Heart Rescue was overwhelmed by requests for assistance with cats and kittens in remote First Nations communities. We sent out a plea for help and our prayers were answered by Judy, a skilled and compassionate animal welfare volunteer who worked specifically with cats!
