Counseling
Though we can’t solve every problem, we will always let you know your options to avoid surrendering your companion. We often don’t know what help is out there until we ask. So don’t hesitate to contact us with your specifics and find out.
Veterinary Care
We know that vet bills can be daunting in both routine and life and death situations. As responsible guardians, we need to be prepared for these possibilities. But we know life happens and we offer all the help we can on a case by case basis.
Community
Facing challenges life throws at us is always easier with friends at our side. We are not only a rescue. We are also a pillar of a community that includes vets, temporary fosters and donors who want to see you and your companion succeed in hard times.
The tragic alternatives
Traditional rescue structure step in after surrender.
Because there is no governing body requiring shelters and rescues to keep exact statistics on euthanasia rates, these numbers are likely undercounted. And while there has been a downward trend since 2011 thanks to increased adoption rates and the efforts of No-Kill advocacy groups, the statistics are still far too high. The situations leading to these statistics are highly preventable.
