After 45 days surviving alone in the woods, a terrifying battle with parvo, and an incredible journey toward recovery, Jubilee's story is finally getting the happy ending she deserves.
We are overjoyed to share that Jubilee is officially parvo negative and doing wonderful! This brave girl has fought through so much, and now she is healthy, happy, and ready to begin the next chapter of her life.
But the best news of all? Jubilee is being adopted by her foster family!
The people who welcomed her into their home, cared for her through her recovery, and watched her personality blossom have fallen in love with her. They have decided to make her a permanent member of their family.
After everything Jubilee has endured, she will never have to wonder where she belongs again.
She has gone from a frightened, abandoned dog hiding in the woods to a beloved family member with a safe home, a soft bed, and people who will love her for the rest of her life.
Thank you to everyone who donated, shared her story, and helped us fight for Jubilee when she needed us most. Your generosity helped cover her emergency hospitalization and parvo treatment, giving her the chance to survive and find her forever home.
Jubilee's journey is a beautiful reminder of why rescue matters. She waited 45 days for someone to save her, and now she finally has the happy ending she always deserved.
Thank you for being part of her story and helping us turn her darkest days into a lifetime of love
About this campaign
💔 After 45 Days of Surviving Alone… Jubilee Is Fighting for Her Life. 💔
Jubilee. Named after the church where her family abandoned her instead of doing the right thing and finding her a loving home or rescue. They gave her no chance.
For a month and a half, Jubilee survived alone in the woods beside that church, just feet from a busy road. Every night she curled up alone in the woods, scared, and forgotten. For weeks, we showed up every single day. We fed her on a schedule, let her get used to our scent, built a custom trap, monitored trail cameras, and prayed she would trust us enough to walk into that kennel.
She was so broken. You’d only catch glimpses of her peeking through the trees or walking down the side of the road with her head hanging low.
Then one day… she chose to trust us. She walked into the kennel. We cried tears of relief because we truly believed the hardest part of her story was finally over. Jubilee settled into her foster home and experienced things she’d likely never had before—a soft bed, toys, regular meals, and people who loved her. She finally got to stop surviving , stop living in fight or flight and simply be a dog. But that happiness lasted only a few days.
Jubilee didn’t want to eat dinner Wednesday. Anyone who knows Jubilee knows that’s not normal. Her foster rushed her in for testing and unfortunately she tested positive for parvo. Now the little dog who survived abandonment, starvation, loneliness, and weeks alone in the woods is lying in an emergency hospital, fighting for her life.
It’s impossible not to wonder… If someone had simply vaccinated her… If someone had simply asked a rescue for help… If someone had simply cared… Would she be fighting for her life today?
We can’t change the choices that were made for Jubilee. We can only fight to make sure they aren’t the reason she loses her life.
Our rescue is exhausted. Emergency after emergency has drained every dollar we have. Medical bills continue to pile up, but giving up on Jubilee has never been an option.
Please, if you can, donate. If you can’t, please share her story. She waited 45 days for someone to save her. Please don’t let her run out of time now.
❤️ She deserves the chance to know that being rescued wasn’t the happiest part of her story… it was only the beginning.

After surviving 45 days alone in the woods and then facing a terrifying battle with parvo, Jubilee spent five days hospitalized at the emergency vet fighting for her life .
Jubilee has moved into our dedicated parvo foster home, where she is receiving plenty of love, care, and attention. She’s eating, drinking, having normal stool, isn't vomiting, and—best of all—she is back to being the happiest dog in the entire world.
Her tail never seems to stop wagging. Despite everything this sweet girl has endured, Jubilee still wakes up ready to greet each day with joy. That spirit is nothing short of incredible.
But Jubilee's emergency hospitalization and ongoing parvo care have come with significant veterinary expenses. Our rescue has already been stretched thin by emergency after emergency, and we need your help to cover the bills that made it possible to save her.
Please consider making a donation today to help pay Jubilee's medical expenses. Every gift, no matter the size, helps our rescue recover from the cost of her lifesaving care and continue helping animals who have nowhere else to turn.
If you can't donate, please share Jubilee's story. Her journey from 45 days of loneliness to a warm foster home, a full belly, and a constantly wagging tail is one worth celebrating.
Jubilee waited so long for someone to save her. Now she's finally living the life she deserved all along. Please help us make sure her medical bills don't stand in the way of saving the next animal who needs us. ❤️🐾
