Foster a Dog
Fostering a Rescue dog is one of the most rewarding things you can do. These dogs often are pulled from the shelters when they are on the euthanasia list so we are their last hope. Seeing a dog's demeanor change once they realize they are safe is emotionally uplifting. Helping these dogs find hope and knowing they are loved is a priceless gift you can give. All that is required is opening your heart and home to one of our orphans. It is a gift that definitely keeps on giving.

Adopt a Dog
The minimum adoption donation ranges from $300 to $400. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. Prior to placement, all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are usually microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems. We appreciate any additional contribution you may be able to make.
