Dirt Roads Rescue: Empowering Communities
Rez Run: Red Mesa Mission!
Dirt Roads Rescue is hitting the road for our second Rez Run on August 28th! We're heading to Red Mesa—a remote area where animal rescue resources are scarce and the need is urgent.
We’re delivering food, medical supplies, and support to fosters on the front lines who are doing everything they can with very little. This trip is about more than donations—it’s about showing up when it matters.
Urgent Needs:
• Dog & cat food
• Medical supplies
• Pee pads
• De-wormer
• Flea/tick shampoo & treatment
Drop off donations at 2422 Grant Ave
Let’s make this first run count—for the animals who need us most.
In Memory of Koko. For Every Dog Still Waiting
Remembering Koko
Koko was one of the 152 dogs rescued from the recent hoarding case in Ogden. When she came into my care, she was just 5 pounds, 2 ounces—fragile, fearful, and unfamiliar with human kindness. Over time, she began to trust, finding comfort in gentle touches and quiet companionship. She slept beside me every night, gradually embracing the love she had long been denied.
Tragically, Koko passed away following her spay surgery. I believe that generations of inbreeding left her too weak to recover. Her loss is a stark reminder of the deep, lasting impact of neglect and the urgent need for systemic change.
Koko's story is not just about sorrow; it's a call to action. We must advocate for stronger animal welfare laws and support efforts to rescue and rehabilitate animals in need. Koko deserved a full life of love and safety. In her memory, let's work to ensure that other animals receive the care and compassion they deserve.
Koko, safe at last.
Though her time was short, she mattered. We’ll carry her story forward, always.
