On December 3rd the Grinch will be invading Baker Buffalo Creek Vineyards & Winery. He will be posing for photos with you and/or your two legged or four legged children. ( be careful that he does not try to steal them! ) Photos are $5.00 for a link to your pictures and will be taken by professional photographer, Shelby Putnam. Just in time for a great Christmas present.
There will be several of the CARE doggies there, so if you do not have anyone to take a photo with, we will gladly let you take one with one of our adoptable dogs.
At the end of the event, we will be drawing for the quilts and the Henry rifle. You still have a chance to buy tickets at the event.
We hope to see you there! We plan to have a jolly ole good time even if the Grinch is joining us!

On June 9th, 2015, Clifford’s Army Rescue was made aware of a pup at our local shelter that was beyond pitiful. Every bone in her body was visible, she was literally starving to death. Her toe nails curled out and under, her skin was rough. We thought she was a small adult dog at first glance, but when we knew we had to save her, and went to pull her out of the shelter, we found a puppy.
We originally named her Twiggy and we were worried about her making it as we soon found out she was full of parasites and was going to need a lot of TLC to pull through. Enter an amazing foster, Ashley Blanton, who stepped up and said she would take her in. As time went by and Twiggy got healthier, a bond formed between Twiggy and Ashley’s son Sage. If ever there was a story of a boy and his dog, this is it! Twiggy’s name was changed and she was named after one of Ashley’s former teachers, Harper B . ( our first hint there might be a foster fail)
Ashley was a bit worried as she had never had a pit bull and of course people were telling her not to adopt this precious girl. Ashley went with her heart and more importantly Sage’s heart and adopted this wonderful girl who was headed to the landfill, not to ever have a life at all, until rescue stepped up.
The words on this photo are so powerful. The rescue and Ashley ” wanted ” Harper B, and chose to help her. Everyone including a special little boy, fell in love with this wonderful dog and Harper B fell in love with humans and was taught there is good in this world. Harper B was adopted and that B is for Blanton as she is a full fledged member of the family.
Many families do not get to chose their family members, but through adoption, you do get to chose, you do get to save a life, you do get to show love and compassion. I would say adopting makes us the lucky ones as we get to pick the ones that need us most.
( check out the pics… Harper B and Sage are growing up together, six years now and counting, what a wonderful life that was chosen for Harper B)
Christmas with C.A.R.E. Sponsor a CARE doggie for Christmas.
As we head into the Christmas holidays, Clifford’s Army Rescue has more dogs than we have ever had in our small rescue.
We are currently trying to help as many abandoned, sick, injured, feral, frightened, dogs as possible. We also do any and all that is needed for these dogs sparing no expense thanks to wonderful contributors in the community and beyond.
Currently we have 30 dogs/puppies that need to be altered immediately. The number has grown as we are having trouble getting appointments with the spay/neuter clinics and are on a waiting list. We have at least 17 more that will be ready to be altered very soon.
Our normal vetting for all our dogs is running between 700 and 1000 a week. We recently had major surgery on one of our dogs at a cost of over 4K, and we have another one of our dogs going for an ultrasound next week.
Sponsoring a dog for any amount will truly help us to be able to help even more in need.
The CARE doggies are ready to send their special Christmas Card to you and yours for a minimum donation of $20.
Some examples of what your donation can cover are listed. We also have food, supplement, bed, crate, costs.
No amount is too small. It all adds up and helps the dogs in need.
We thank you in advance for sponsoring if you can, for sharing if you will, and for praying that we can continue to help the overwhelming amount of dogs in need.
The on line form link is below and will also be in the posts on the event page. You may also sponsor by snail mail at CARE, Post Office Box 370, Earl, NC 28038
