Named in honor of our beloved Cindy Lou, the mission of Cindy Lou’s Sanctuary is to rescue and provide sanctuary as a loving and safe home for Dachshunds and other small breeds.
When possible we arrange adoptions to forever homes, but we are always committed to each one’s lifelong emotional and physical care.
And our second sweet boy – Teddy! Again all thanks to The Art of Dog Grooming by Tina! He looks like a whole new doggo! How can you not love this face?? … See MoreSee Less

Surgery was successful – we are so thankful for the skill of Dr Rendon who performed the surgery at Animal Medical Clinic of Goose Creek, Rachel her nurse, Dr Johnson who diagnosed on Friday, all the staff who loved on her while she was there today, and especially everyone who donated to make it possible! ❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾 … See MoreSee Less

❤️💔🐾💰 Can you help? Our sweet Sophia who has been out with a foster to adopt had to come back to us emergently yesterday – she is very ill – she has Pyometra and is scheduled for surgery on Monday morning. She’s on medicine and had IVs to keep her stable over the weekend. The tests, treatments and surgery will be over $1,000. We are asking for donations to help with the cost so we can continue to assist the little loves

It was 2 years ago today that my precious Cindy Lou lost her life. I relieve those last days over and over, but keep moving forward every day – saving small lives in her honor and will never let her memory die. She was a one in a million girl. Please take a moment today with me and remember all those babies who have passed and those we try so hard to save, hug your babies and tell them how much you love them 💕💕 … See MoreSee Less

We have at least 1 new interested foster, and met so many wonderful dog people! I want to personally thank the amazing volunteers who staffed the day for us – Herb Watson, Tammy Smith, Laura Dutkiewicz, Maria Christina, Patty Strain – without each of you the day would not have been possible! Thanks also to our amazing donors – Susan Hogan, Jenn Bayer, Saundra Rebholz for providing basket donations and wreaths! And a very large thank you to Olivia Whitehurst for making the event happen! ❤️ … See MoreSee Less

When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.❤️🩹❤️🐾Hello to Spencer – I got another plea from Berkely Animal Center today, “can you help?” Yes! We pulled this handsome man – fka Stumpy, now Spencer, who we knew needed a Rabies shot. Once I had my hands on him, I realized I needed to get him to the vet ASAP! We are so lucky that The Animal Hospital of North Charleston said yes to us and Dr Decker fit us in right away. Spencer got his rabies and his DHPP booster, he has a grade 3 heart murmur, both ears are infected, a large mass on his right side, his left shoulder goes every which way, his eyes are cloudy, his skin has flea dermatitis and he is missing all sorts of fur, he has lumps and bumps and growths all over – in other words – he’s a hot mess! His ears are cleaned and packed, he had a convenia shot, we got him started on a course of pred, doc aspirated the mass and it’s a fatty lipoma (yay!), we will start fungal baths tomorrow and work on trimming those toenails (he was having none of it tonight) but out of the shelter 4 hours and his bill is already just over $450 to get him started! Can you help him on his way to healthy? This sweet old man (they thought he was 7, our vet thinks more like 10-12) is very sweet and friendly and full of love and hope! Every dollar helps us help the little ones!

We need to catch up some happy tails!! I’m missing some pictures but will share some here! First up – All of Candi’s puppies have been adopted – the last to go was Nugget – who was waiting for just the perfect family to come along! Just before Nugget was Ticker, now Dobby who traveled all the way to Florida with his new pawrents and is having a wonderful time! Our Sweet Daisy was adopted and is enjoying long walks with her new Daddy! Toby and Brutus who were in foster to adopt homes are both being adopted by their fosters who say they are “perfect”! Our sweet Wee Willy has gone to a foster to adopt and is snuggling in just fine so far. Happy lives to all our sweet babies and their families – we always look forward to pictures and stories! … See MoreSee Less

Sissy Update – our girl has made it through the night, seems to be feeling less pain today but still not eating her slurry. She was licking at the slurry but not actually taking any, so I’ve given her some water via syringe (per vet instructions) which she took fine and then a bit of syringed slurry just on the front of her tongue and she lapped it up. So far so good. She was out in the sunshine early this morning with the gang before it got hot, and has been resting either in her little cozy bed or on a lap getting lots of love all day. We appreciate all the prayers and support! … See MoreSee Less
Here’s our Sissy riding home in the sunshine on a super soft blankie after spending the whole afternoon getting checked out at Animal Medical Clinic of Goose Creek. Big thanks to Dr Renden who really listened to our concerns, thoroughly checked out Sissy, figured out the issues and came up with several plans.
Sissy is resting right now, she has not eaten yet, but we are hopeful that once her pain settles down she will. She licked the air above the bowl of slurry and we put some on her tongue but she wasn’t interested in actually sipping any yet. Our vet bills are already climbing with her – so far her two vet visits have totaled $610.80. We would be glad of any help – you can donate through Venmo, PayPal or Facebook button below

UPDATE!! Thank you all for the prayers – the news is not great – Sissy has a pathological jaw fracture – she only has 3 teeth and the bottom molar is abcessed and the infection has eaten away jawbone- causing a pathological fracture right where that tooth is. It’s extremely painful. Her X-rays show both upper and lower jaws are deteriorating badly. We are consulting with the dental specialist Dr Qweck to see what if anything can be done. For now, we are working on getting rid of the infection and controlling pain and will be working on getting her to eat slurry food. We’ve gotten her iv fluids and meds to help her feel better right away!
Asking for prayers for Sissy today- we are going back to the vet – she has pain in her neck, drooling, didn’t eat breakfast, threw up and is shivering. They are working us in. ❤️🙏🐾 … See MoreSee Less
