Help Us, Help Them Dog Rescue

🍄✨☕ GOOD MORNING, FRIENDS! ☕✨🍄

What better way to start your Sunday than with a cup of coffee, a little morning scrolling, and a peek at all of the beautiful new mushrooms that were posted yesterday as part of our Adopt A Mushroom, Save A Pup Fundraiser! 🐾❤️

That's right—the fundraiser is continuing throughout the entire month of June, which means there are still plenty of magical mushrooms waiting to be adopted, with new creations being unveiled regularly!

🌌 Right now we're wrapping up our Aurora Galaxy Collection, inspired by northern lights, moonlit skies, cosmic colors, and celestial magic.

✨ But that's not all...

🐶🧚‍♀️ Today we're getting ready to roll out our brand-new Fairy Dog Mother Collection! Think fairy godmother energy—but with more wagging tails, more sparkle, more magic, and maybe even a few adorable garden gremlin vibes mixed in for good measure. 🍄🐾✨

Who's ready for:

🌟 Bedazzling glitter?
🌟 Whimsical fairy magic?
🌟 Enchanted garden vibes?
🌟 One-of-a-kind handcrafted creations that help save dogs?

We hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful moon last night—it was absolutely stunning and the perfect inspiration for some of our newest designs. 🌙✨

🍄 To see all of the mushrooms that were launched yesterday...
🍄 To browse the mushrooms still waiting to be adopted...
🍄 To follow along as we unveil our newest collections throughout June...

Please join the Help Us Help Them Dog Rescue Fundraising Group and come see what magic is waiting for you!

❤️ Not everyone can foster or adopt a dog, but everyone can adopt a mushroom to help save a pup. 🐾🍄

Please Share & Make Sure To Tag A Friend 😉

🍄🐾✨ ADOPT A MUSHROOM, SAVE A PUP! ✨🐾🍄

🚨 UPDATE: Although the flash sale has ended, we still have countless mushroom favorites waiting to be adopted—plus brand-new mushrooms being posted every day throughout June! 🚨

For the fourth year in a row, Help Us Help Them Dog Rescue volunteers have been handcrafting one-of-a-kind cement garden mushrooms to help raise money for dogs in need.

Each mushroom is individually cast, painted, decorated, sealed, and finished by volunteers. No two are exactly alike, making every mushroom a unique piece of garden magic.

🌿 Handcrafted by volunteers
🌿 Made from cement
🌿 Sealed for all four Michigan seasons
🌿 One-of-a-kind designs
🌿 Fairy garden, woodland, glitter, gnome, galaxy, dog-lover, and whimsical themes

Every mushroom adopted helps provide:

🐾 Veterinary care
🐾 Emergency medical treatment
🐾 Food and supplies
🐾 Outreach assistance for struggling families
🐾 Trapping equipment for lost and stray dogs
🐾 Care for rescue dogs currently in foster homes

❤️ Not everyone can foster a dog.
❤️ Not everyone can adopt a dog.
🍄 But everyone can adopt a mushroom to help save a pup.

We currently have dozens of mushrooms available, with new designs being added daily throughout June.

📍 Pickup: Near 8 Mile & Woodward by appointment

🚚 Shipping Available
Small and medium mushrooms can be shipped anywhere in the United States.

📦 Flat-Rate Shipping:
$25 USPS Medium Flat Rate Box

🚨🍄✨ ADOPT A MUSHROOM, SAVE A PUP FLASH SALE ALERT: ENDS FRIDAY AT MIDNIGHT - PLEASE SHARE! ✨🐾🚨

As part of our Adopt A Mushroom, Save A Pup Fundraiser, we're running a special FLASH SALE now through FRIDAY AT MIDNIGHT! ⏰

🍄 The flash-sale prices are listed on the individual mushroom posts below.

To adopt a mushroom, you MUST comment on the ORIGINAL mushroom post inside the just like we normally do. Claims made elsewhere may be missed.

🍄 As always, adoptions are first come, first served based on the timestamp of comments made on the original post.

⚠️ Some mushrooms have already been adopted, and several others are one-of-a-kind pieces with only one available. Once they're gone, they're gone.

Why the flash sale?

✨ We just received a huge shipment of new glitter.
✨ We have approximately 25 brand-new mushrooms ready to launch.
✨ This weekend we'll begin unveiling an entirely new collection featuring new colors, glitters, and designs.
✨ The new collection will NOT be offered at flash-sale pricing.
✨ We need to make room before the next magical collection starts dropping.

💜 As many of you know, the Facebook algorithm has been absolutely brutal lately. Out of more than 2,600 members in our fundraising group, Facebook is currently showing many of our posts to only about 100–150 people. That's less than 6% of our group seeing the fundraiser.

Even if you're not able to adopt a mushroom, you can still make a huge difference by sharing this post, inviting friends to the group, and helping us spread the word. Every share helps us reach new people, grow our fundraiser, and ultimately save more dogs.

📢 PLEASE HELP US BEAT THE ALGORITHM

✔️ Share this post directly from the fundraising group
✔️ Invite friends and family to join the group
✔️ Tag someone who loves DOGS, fairy gardens, mushrooms, gardening, gnomes, whimsical décor, or rescue dogs
✔️ Drop a comment to help boost engagement

Our volunteers have poured their hearts into every single mushroom. Every cap is hand-cast from cement, decorated, sealed, and finished by volunteers who donate their time because they believe in helping rescue dogs.

🌿 Every mushroom is completely one-of-a-kind. Once adopted, it can never be recreated exactly the same way again.

✨ Every mushroom is handcrafted by volunteers.
✨ Hand-cast from cement.
✨ Sealed to withstand all four seasons.
✨ Individually hand-painted and/or decorated by volunteers.

Over the years, our Adopt A Mushroom, Save A Pup Fundraiser has helped provide food, medical care, emergency vetting, outreach assistance, and trapping supplies for countless dogs in need.

Every dollar raised goes directly back into helping the dogs through:

🐾 Veterinary care & medical treatment
🐾 Food and supplies
🐾 Outreach programs
🐾 Trapping efforts for lost and stray dogs
🐾 The rescue dogs currently in our care

Before we begin running paid advertisements, we wanted to say THANK YOU to the people who have supported us, shared our posts, adopted mushrooms, donated, volunteered, and helped us save dogs. This flash sale is our way of giving back to our loyal supporters first.
