Winnie’s Way’s first ever “regrant!”

Sweet Rella is a former Winnie’s Way grant recipient for her first leg surgery.  When her leg was reinjured and required amputation, we wanted to help her out again! What a journey it has been for this sweet girl, but she is now a happy tripod and will have a wonderful life with her furever family!

What an honor for Winnie’s Way to be able to present our latest grant award to sweet Bengal! When HSNWLA rescued this handsome dude from animal control, he was dragging his left front leg.

Sweet Rella is the latest recipient of a Winnie’s Way grant award!

Sweet Rella is the latest recipient of a Winnie’s Way grant award!  This sweet girl was found near the interstate and was likely hit by a car.  Among other injuries, she had  a broken pelvis and leg.  As you can see, she has had surgery and is now healing nicely.  The wonderful folks at the Humane Society of NW Louisana are seeing to it that she receives the absolute best care!  Hopefully she will regain full use of her leg, but regardless, she will make someone a wonderful and special girl one day.  Stay tuned for updates on this sweetheart!  Winnie’s way is so glad to be a part of Rella’s healing journey!

Sweet Mildred & Mr. Wobbles are the latest recipients of Winnie’s Way grant awards!

It’s another Winnie’s Way double dip! How about these charming pups?? Sweet Mildred & Mr. Wobbles are the latest recipients of Winnie’s Way grant awards! Mildred wasn’t feeling too perky on grant award day, as she recently had surgery to remove her remaining eye which was causing her significant pain. But she will soon be her sweet & playful self again. Blind doggies lead perfectly normal & happy lives, so don’t let that deter you from adopting! Mr. Wobbles has some neurological issues (as did our sweet Winnie, so near & dear to our hearts), but he is the sweetest & silliest boy. Ninna’s Road to Rescue takes such wonderful care of so many rescue doggies! These pups are “specially-abled” & Winnie’s Way is so glad to be a part of their stories.

Ninna’s Road to Rescue Grant Award

What a great kickoff check presentation on December 5, 2020.  The recipient of the first grant award from Winnie’s Way is Ninna’s Road to Rescue!  What a great organization.  These folks are on the front lines in rescuing doggies from all over, including doggies with special needs!  In fact, our sweet Winnie was rescued by Ninna’s in January 2020! So it was only fitting that they be the first recipient of a Winnie’s Way grant award.  So excited to be able to support them in their rescue efforts!
