My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

UPDATE 12.12.24 - Poor Gizmo has been in our care for 425 days with no interest. :( Gizmo has a sponsor and his adoption fee has been taken care of, but he is in URGENT NEED of a new foster home or adoption as his current foster family is moving. Please help this sweet boy! His yearly vet visit reports Gizmo as healthy and ready for a forever home!!

-------------------------
Name: Gizmo

Age: 7 years old

Color/Breed: Black/Lab

Hobbies: Loves playing fetch with tennis balls and exploring outside

Favorite treat: Loves EVERYTHING! Treat and food motivated!

Humble beginnings: Gizmo hasn’t had the best start, but we are hoping he will have the best happily ever after. Gizmo was rescued from an elderly couple with a hoarding situation. He had limited space to get around and his general health was neglected.

Vet report- They say he’s the bestest boy and we agree! He is caught up on vaccines, his dental health is good and since he has been in foster, his fur has grown in thick and beautiful.

Message from his foster: Gizmo has a very sweet demeanor. He likes to nuzzle for hugs, run for tennis balls and chase the turkey vultures out of the yard. He likes other dogs, although not a fan of cats and his foster cat sibling said the feeling is mutual. He knows basic commands and listens very well.

More about this rescue

Recycled Tails was created by Heidi Evans in 2011 to continue her life long dream of rescuing animals of all shapes and sizes.

We have our 501c3 non-profit status and are always recruiting foster homes. We rescue unwanted pets including dogs, other domestic pets and barnyard friends (including chickens!) and work to find them their new forever homes.

We have a program to help pet owners who need to rehome their pets to keep their pets in their homes until a new home can be found. We can provide vet care/food/training to qualified pet owners who have a reason to rehome their pet in order to allow the pet to stay in the home as long as possible. Our goal is to place the pet right from one home to another.

We believe education can be the key to successful pet ownership. Heidi has spoken at schools and other programs to young adults about the meaning of owning a pet and all of the requirements that go along with it. If we can educate our youth it will benefit the future of pet ownership overall. If you would like to learn more about this please email us.
