Before & After Gallery

Our rescues often come from deplorable conditions. Often they are suffering from malnutrition, injury, and sickness. Their coats are matted and filthy. We provide them with medical care and nourishment, clean them up, and work to gain their trust so that we can send them to a forever home where they will be cared for and loved.

Adopt a Dog

Please ask your friends to adopt dogs from shelters or rescues rather than buying them from pet stores. A dog is killed due to the lack of a home approximately every 9 seconds ... adopting rescue or shelter dogs will help to reduce the number of dogs euthanized in shelters; it will also reduce the demand for puppies bred for sale in pet stores in the inhumane conditions of puppy mills.
