We are a group of dedicated volunteers passionate about promoting spay/neuter to reduce the pet over-population, which leads to the untimely death of so many of our beloved companions. We are also very compassionate in rescuing animals in danger, and placing them in to loving homes. We do not have a shelter.

Our objectives include the following: promote spay/neuter to reduce the overpopulation of animals, a condition that leads to the neglect, abuse, and abandonment of animals in Person County the placement of unwanted animals into responsible, loving homes. educate public on responsible pet ownership rescue animals in danger of being euthanized.

PAWS for Irving Animals LLC is a group of dedicated, hands-on volunteers for dogs at the Irving Animal Care Campus. We aspire to work hand-in-hand with staff to achieve a no-kill status for Irving Animal Services through positive promotion of the dogs in social media, hosting off-site adoption events, promoting and training fosters, providing funds for animals in urgent need, and facilitating programs to promote adoption and rescue.

We are a foster based animal rescue based in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. I have many years of volunteer experience with other local animal rescues as a foster and as the Director of the Cat Program. I started this new organization in November of 2014 to help more animals get rescued and find their forever homes.

The mission of Ruff Love Rescue (www.ruffloverescue.com) is to provide a safe haven for homeless, abused, neglected, and/or abandoned dogs; especially those seen as poor adoption prospects. We maintain information about reputable canine organizations and rescues, networking with as many of these as possible to place adoptable dogs in responsible, loving environments, either through foster care or whenever possible, forever homes. We are a home based foster group with no adoption facility. We adopt to North Carolina but in special circumstances can go out of state. We use every pro-bono means at our disposal to raise public awareness about homeless animals and responsible pet care as well as to find homes for our dogs. Dogs who are not adopted will live out their lives at Ruff Love. Ruff Love Rescue is run entirely by volunteers. We have full time jobs and save dogs in our spare time. Currently RLR has over 100 dogs. Since 1999, Sue Rogers, President/Founder and RLR volunteers have found forever homes for hundreds of homeless dogs.

We are a rescue for feral and domestic cats. We are in the progress of incorporating and then we will file as a non-profit 501(c)3. Our mission is two-fold. First, our aim is to help rescue cats "at risk" from our local animal control. Pregnant moms and their babies are quick to be etuhnanized at animal control, so with the help of foster homes, we will work to rescue pregnant moms and other "at risk" cats and kittens. Second, we aim to help the ferals in our community by aiding in Trap Neuter Return (TNR) efforts and making sure that no feral goes without. Our Adoption Process... We require an application and vet check before adoption. Adopters are required to sign a contract upon adoption agreeing to have the cat spayed/neutered by a certain date, as well as to never declaw or allow the cat to go outside. Adoption fee for each cat is the cost of any vet appointments the cat has needed while at the rescue.

We are an independently run organization. Dachshund Rescue of Los Angeles aims to reduce the number of dachshunds being euthanized in local shelters and provide well educated and committed homes for homeless dogs.

Memphis Pets Alive! was created to help people help pets. Our primary focus is the Memphis Animal Services facility, a high kill shelter in our county. We photograph and network every available animal, and our goal is our own building to save more pets.
