We are a rescue group, consisting of all foster homes. We do board dogs when we don't have enough fosters. We provide vet care, spay/neuter, shots, hearworm, & flea medication to all of our pets. We very often save animals other rescues would put down, for such things as broken hips, legs, car accidents, heartworm, etc. This year alone, we have done 2 broken hip dogs, 2 broken leg dogs, and at least 2 heartworm dogs. We are all staffed by volunteers & receive no goverment funding. We also educate people about the importance of spay/neuter and refer them to All About Animals Spay/Neuter clinics as well as provide literature about this & proper vet care.

We do this because we believe that every dog & cat deserves a safe, loving, nuturing forever home with proper care & training.
