Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals
Mission: We are a all volunteer 501c3 (since 2004) non profit animal rescue organization that works with the rescue, adoption, transport & sanctuary of companion animals & equines in need. We pull from local (and non local) high kill shelters as well as accepting owner surrendered animals in need. We also work within our community to offer help with spay/neuter & vetting needs for people wishing to keep their pets but who can't afford the costs. We have a program in place for pet food donations as well as doghouses/bedding (during winter months for pets kept outside) for owners who need a little help to keep their pets with them rather than turning them in to the shelters. We have a hospice program in place for animals needing a final stage of life home as well. We take medical needs dogs that other rescues turn down (currently treating several HW+ dogs) as well as the harder to place breeds. We work from foster homes/no physical shelter building (no boarding kennels) and all animals are in homes waiting for their families to find them.
Results: 2015: 634 dogs & cats adopted/transferred2016: 483 dogs & cats adopted/transferred2017: 490 dogs & cats adopted/transferred 2018: 312 dogs & cats adopted/transferred2019: 234 dogs & cats adopted/transferred (All numbers taken directly from the Department of Ag website)
Target demographics: animals residing in kill shelters as well as owner surrendered animals. We also take in medical needs animals that other rescues deny (currently working with several HW+ dogs). We also help with senior dogs & cats in kill shelters to give them a hospice home for their end of life. We also work with horse rescue (and other farm animals) on our farm.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 2021 Intake: 120 dogs, 89 cats, 7 Guinea pigs, 1 Rabbit, 2 Chinchillas & 4 pigs
Geographic areas served: rural SW Virginia
Programs: spay/neuter assistance, help with medical costs that owners cannot afford, pet food & bedding/doghouse assistance in a effort to keep pets in their homes rather than having them surrendered to a shelter.
