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.
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

Our sweet Jazz crossed the Rainbow Bridge this afternoon, leaving a hole in our hearts and overwhelming sadness tonight for all the little ones that we don’t get to love on that are in her condition. Jazz was sweet and loving, I’m not sure her feet ever touched the ground once she arrived at the sanctuary as her happy place was in a lap and we were all happy to oblige. We did our best to erase as much of the bad as we could in the short time she was with us.
She was not with us long but touched us deeply and her memory will push us to continue to rescue others in her predicament Tonight I’m holding my furbabies close, I hope you are too and we thank you for the love and prayers you have poured out on our sweet Jazz. Run free sweet girl til we meet again 💔🌈 … See MoreSee Less
