Who we are

We are a husband and wife pair who love animals and are doing our best to reduce their suffering.

What we do

We partner with local animal shelters to rescue stray, abandoned, and injured animals. We specialize in the rescue and rehabilitation of those animals most at-risk of being euthanized, providing safe housing until we find their forever homes. All of our rescue animals come through the public shelter system. We do not accept animals from private individuals.

This organization relies on the kind donations of our community. Please check out our donations page to see how you can help.

I get to foster these two for one more week before they go up for adoption. ... See MoreSee Less
