Redland Rock Pit Abandoned Dogs Project
Help Save Abandoned Pets in South Florida
HELP US SAVE THESE DOGS
Why We Need Your Help
We are a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to saving animals in the Redland Rock Pit area of South Florida.
Redland, Florida is known to many as the agricultural side of South Miami-Dade where residents tour the bordering Everglades for some beautiful wildlife scenery.
For animal lovers, however, it is a very different story. It is known as the “dumping ground” for unwanted pets. The reality is, many individuals drive to a secluded area, open the car door, throw out their unwanted pet and then drive off.
Many of these loyal and loving dogs will run after the car in an attempt to catch their owner’s vehicle until they become exhausted and can’t run any further, leaving them confused, disoriented and lost.
These domesticated house pets are left to fend for themselves. The ones that are not killed by traffic are often poisoned, injured or shot by local workers and residents who feel they don’t belong in their neighborhood. Many starve to death because this is an agricultural area and there are no resources for them to survive.
For many of them that remain on the truckyards and the farms seeking human companionship, their bodies become ravaged by mosquitos, parasites, disease, and most will eventually succumb to death unless rescued.

Faces of Boarding: DIXIE ROCK PIT SURVIVOR
Adoption Ready
“Someone needs to adopt this dog before I end up bringing her home and getting evicted from my condo… and divorced.😜 Dixie is one of the most loving dogs I have ever met. Hugging is her favorite hobby. She is a 1-2 year old pointer mix and was found in an area of Miami called the Rock Pit. Sadly this area is known as a place where people go to dump their dogs. Dixie was saved by Redland Rockpit Rescue. She was adopted and given a whopping three days in the home before they decided she had too much energy.🙄🙄 Dixie would love to get out of boarding and into a home with a fenced in yard where she can play and get out her energy. She is dog friendly and as you can see, she loves her people. If you are interested in fostering or adopting this love bug, please contact the rescue at www.redlandrockpit.org. Dixie is located in Pompano Beach. Please share.❤️🐾” ... See MoreSee Less

This is at the rock pit right now. We need help with these animals.
URGENT URGENT URGENT
ROCK PIT HIALEAH GARDENS FLORIDA
RESCUE NEEDED ASAP. WE ARE PAST DUE WITH VET BILLS AND BOARDING. WE ARE PLEADING FOR HELP.
THE ONLY WAY WE CAN PICK THEM UP IS WITH A REPUTABLE RESCUE AND/OR A LONG TERM FOSTER.
1. How can you leave them? We need financial resources along with a long term (6+ months) foster commitment or a REPUTABLE 501 rescue.
www.redlandrockpit.org/foster/
2. Who took the video and just left? Our volunteer feeders who know NOT to pick up a dog without the boards approval.
3. They could’ve been stolen and dumped. Any dog picked up by us, is reported to Miami Dade Animal Services lost and found data base. If they are picked up and transferred to a reputable rescue, that info is also sent to MDAS. HOWEVER, you are more than welcome to share on all lost and found pages.
Please complete a foster application:
www.redlandrockpit.org/foster/
If you are a rescue and can help, please complete the following form:

Per Ortho Surgeon:
Hope was seen by Dr Cabrera
She has bilateral hip dysplasia. More impactful is the fact that due to her walking with legs completely out of their sockets she has developed scar tissue that prevents her from moving her joints.
Surgery would include two FSHO and while she is under manipulation of joints and removal or scar tissue which is painful. If this improves her mobility. A second surgery to remove more scar tissue is warranted two to three weeks later.
If removing the scar tissue does not allow for her to bend her legs, the recommendation was euthanasia.
We have decided as long as she continues to fight for her life, so will we. She is a little spunky lady. Please consider donating towards Hopes surgery.
So far we’ve paid about $840.00 keeping in mind, this does not include her surgery for which we a awaiting an estimate.

Just donated. Thank you for trying to help her!
Just donated - wish it could be more. I urge everyone who wishes that they "could help" but are unable to feed, foster, adopt, etc. to GIVE WHAT YOU CAN! Do your friends and kids really need yet another toy? I also keep wondering if people have gold or silver that is they no longer use if we can find a way to contribute that towards these HUGE bills that Redland Rock Pit?
I will make a donation tomorrow. 🙁

Would she not be a candidate for wheels if the surgery isn't successful in getting her legs to bend correctly?
I was hoping that bilateral FHO surgeries would get her back to being able to move relatively easily and without any pain. I don't want those femurs are out of the hip socket those hip sockets scar up and close up fast. Prayers for that little baby.
WOW. This is the best love story ever!
