Our beloved Cindy Lou, who lost her battle to live way too soon
The backyard of the sanctuary
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.
It’s surgery time again! We have 6 that need to go for surgery on Monday, March 24th and we need your help to raise the funds to send them! We need to hit about $3000 – ever dollar helps us get there!!

Yesterday was a heck of a day – we had 3 sweet babies join us at Cindy Lou’s- two from Lexington- Kevin the Chihuahua and Chimp the Wheaton – they are 18ish and have some awful skin issues among other things. And then Ronnie from Georgia who had a badly broken leg and his owner never took him to a vet and then dumped him at a shelter. Ronnie needs to have that leg amputated and a neuter – he is one of the most social, happy boys I’ve seen! We are happy to welcome all 3 to our sanctuary! … See MoreSee Less
We are so fortunate to have Tina at The Art of Dog Grooming by Tina to help make our babies beautiful! Thank you so much for transforming Millie! ❤️❤️ … See MoreSee Less

Sadly Bubba and I have to tell you that our sweet Princess Peach has gone across the rainbow bridge this evening. She was held and loved as she passed by her bonded mate and myself. Her sweet old body was shutting down and just couldn’t go on. She told us it was time. Bubba and I weren’t ready but we couldn’t watch her suffer, so we kissed her and held her and told her we
would see her again across the rainbow bridge. We love you sweet Peach Fly free
Extra thanks to Dr D and the staff at The Animal Hospital of North Charleston for their kindness and caring, you help make the unbearable less so. … See MoreSee Less

Here is the first of three intakes today- meet Millie! A sweet young girl in need of a groom – she’s 10 pounds and about 2 years old. Her family loves her very much but are overwhelmed with their situation and are trying to do the best thing for her. She is sweet and loves to be on a lap! … See MoreSee Less

Our little Bugg is settling in so nicely! This girl is super sweet, she’s been seen by our vet at The Animal Hospital of North Charleston and by Dr Hannah at Charleston Animal Eye Specialists. She has a cherry eye so she needs surgery for that and her spay, but she is 10 pounds of practically perfect in every way! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ … See MoreSee Less
For everyone who’s been asking! Here’s an update on Rolf – he’s down to 18.6 pounds and counting! He is moving around so much better- he even has a happy little jump he’s started trying out when I get home! He likes being out with the rest of the gang on a nice warm sunny day and his fur is starting to grow in a bit on his back. I just got a new bloodwork panel on him back and everything is within normal parameters – so he’s doing great! We are getting g closer to him being able to have surgery for the large tumor on his chest … See MoreSee Less
Welcome to our new Bugg – sweet as can be, a wobbly walker – we are already in love ❤️❤️ … See MoreSee Less

I also did a thing – while the babies were having surgery I ran down to Aikens and picked up 3 terrified dachshunds with the help of a new rescue friend. They were so scared when I loaded them up – but they are very friendly!! These boys are young adults, neutered, up to date on shots! … See MoreSee Less
💕💕 Well we did it! Yesterday we took a pile of puppers from Moncks Corner to our friends at PetCare of Newberry for a pile of surgeries! Oliver, Roxie and Bella had their neuter/spays, Bella also had a huge dental and lost all her awful teefers! Roxie had massive tumors removed from her girlie bits and Sophia had multiple mammary tumors removed. All the dogs are home, resting and healing – please send big prayers for quick recoveries – thank you to everyone who donated towards their surgeries – we could not have done it without each and every one of you! ❤️🩹❤️🩹 … See MoreSee Less

Sometimes when things are going so right they go so heartbreakingly wrong. Our sweet Bear who last weekend went out on a foster to adopt and has spent this week doing everything and having so much fun and one on one love, went into acute congestive heart failure this morning and despite being rushed to the hospital and their valiant efforts, he passed away. His X-rays when compared to his X-rays of about 2 months ago show dramatic changes. We are completely heart broken for Bear and his foster parents who texted me on Thursday saying they were in love and felt they were a go to adopt him. We send our love to them for giving him the best week ever, and our thanks to Dr D. And Heidi and the team at North Charleston Animal Hospital for trying everything to save him. Run free until we meet again at the rainbow bridge sweet Bear. … See MoreSee Less
UPDATE: Welcome Milo! We loved all the suggestions and tried them all out, Milo was the one he responded to. (Flicked his eyes at me) 💕
Made an early morning run to Marion County Animal Shelter today to pull this sweet boy – he was surrendered yesterday by his owner who was being evicted from their home and could no longer care for him. He is terrified as you can see, but not aggressive. We are searching for a brand new name for him to give him a fresh start! We’d love to hear your ideas in the comments!! We did convince him to stick his nose out of his open crate to pick up some freeze dried chicken so he’s on his way! … See MoreSee Less
UPDATE: we have found the owner, due to a number of circumstances they have asked us to assist with Him – his name is Snickers and he will be staying with us as we get home ready for his new furever home! Please no hate comments – they have made the best decision fore Snickers
We made a late evening run to Summerville to help out a young lady who found a stray a couple days ago, this sweet pup will finish out his stray hold with us and then get all his vetting done, and will be loved on by all before we work st finding him a wonderful forever home! Welcome Punkin to Cindy Lou’s! … See MoreSee Less
Spencer update – our sweet boy who had hip surgery a couple of weeks ago is doing great! His stitches are out and he is up and running around. We are so thankful for everyone who donated to make this possible and for the surgeon and staff at PetCare of Newberry who provided the care! We are so grateful that this amazing boy now has a chance at a wonderful life!! … See MoreSee Less
