Newbrook woman helps neglected dogs

By Myrina Carter

Local Newbrook woman Stacey Clark spends her days caring for neglected animals or dogs in need of assistance on her ten-acre hobby farm. She takes in as many as she can at a time to help house, feed, groom, and train any of the pets that no longer have homes. She has been in the world of animals for 30-plus years, has her own dog grooming business, and has taken care of animals that need help for the past 15 years. Clark’s heart is full of love and kindness as she shares her help with those animals that are less fortunate.

Clark said, “I help locals with rehoming dogs. I take the dogs people don’t want anymore or have been abused or neglected. I also try to help as many people as possible who have financial issues and have pets; I will give them dog food. I also help individuals or families who need assistance training their animals.”

Clark has noticed throughout her grooming career that many people in her area need help with their pets. She takes care of these dogs out of the kindness of her heart and does her best to give them a chance and helps neglected dogs work towards a happy, fulfilled life. Her day usually begins way before sunrise, letting the dogs out and preparing food for all of them. The hard work doesn’t stop there. She spends her days caring for and training the new pups while getting them socialized and ready to be rehomed. She is working hard to get neglected dogs back into the adoptable state.

Clark said, “I am semi-retired in dog grooming, but I do it for the rescuing more than anything. I believe it helps the community and, most importantly, the dogs and any animal needing help. I like to be the voice for the ones who can’t talk. If I can help people keep their pets, that is fantastic, but if they can’t, I can help too!”
