We do so by providing shelter and care for surrendered/transferred dogs, and supporting the community and local families with behavior and training programs and resources to help them understand and manage their dogs' behavioral health.In 2024, we expanded our capacity to include programming for more at-risk species in the Treasure Valley, beginning with illegally abandoned domestic rabbits. Our community activities now include both dog and rabbit rescue work. 4 0 3 0 226369 232793 2830 2503 32 181 20673 18239 249904 253716 0 0 122126 123993 0 10056 111463 119761 233589 243754 16315 9962 83732 746541 652847 83732 93694 Meridian Canine Rescue's mission is to save animals' lives through storytelling and education. We focus primarily on individual dogs and their unique behaviors as we provide resources to the public, facilitate adoptions, and train humans/dogs. false false 185590 Meridian Canine Rescue (MCR) has the following programs: Adoption, Dog Care, Behavior and Training, EPIC, Rabbit Program, and Volunteer & Foster. In 2024, we prioritized our efforts as follows: 1) Moving our operations to a 15+ acre farm (March 2024) and rebranding to "The Animal Retreat (2) Expanding our community outreach services by providing specialized meals, housing, behavior plans, training, and enrichment activities in new formats; (3) increasing our professional dog training employee to full time work that is dedicated to keeping dogs in homes, ie by providing free and low cost consultations and classes to families struggling with their dogs' behavior issues and managing a free helpline for the community; (4) increasing the number of residents in our prison dog training program, EPIC, and providing them with job skill training, as well as graduating and adopting out several surrendered and transferred dogs; and (5) launching our rabbit program (our first rescue farmed animal species) by collaborating with other local, nonprofit organizations to rescue several bunnies, create care protocols, etc.We are one of the few organizations in the area that focuses on dogs with behavioral issues; our organization provides low stress living environments that have a tremendous impact on the success of our training and rehabilitation program. The Animal Retreat also educates the public, particularly adopters, to better care for their own dogs--and, now rabbits. In addition, The Animal Retreat collaborates with other organizations in the area to transfer dogs that require special training and assessment to be ready for adoption. 185590 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 3 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 4 0 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false true false false false X MARY BORLAND CPA 2087940944 3710 LITTLE ROCK ROAD EMMETT ID 83617 JESSICA EWING Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 41592 0 0 RACHAEL WAHAB Secretary 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 STEPHANIE HOUSE Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KARINNA LOZANO President 20.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 41592 0 false false false 0 13148 219645 5279 232793 ADOPTION & RELATED FEES 900099 2080 2080 COMMUNITY ENRICH CLASSES 611430 423 423 2503 181 181 0 0 0 0 30650 12411 18239 0 0 0 253716 2684 0 0 0 0 41592 20796 18716 2080 0 72792 56466 14558 1768 0 0 9609 6489 2795 325 0 0 0 0 0 0 1523 1523 1752 1752 253 126 127 0 0 18939 14205 4734 0 0 0 35357 35357 0 12662 9129 3533 7199 7199 Veterinarian Services 28111 28111 Fundraising Expenses 5581 5581 Dog Food & Supplies 4299 4299 Telephone/Internet/Website 1961 1471 490 2124 190 1632 302 243754 185590 48108 10056 49987 16130 25054 5349 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 772791 53764 8691 719027 0 0 0 6035 0 83732 746541 2432 650415 0 652847 X 83732 93694 83732 93694 83732 746541 9962 X false false false X 154449 152145 164556 212115 216728 899993 34513 5607 3604 5631 5420 54775 21728 24798 43809 32126 43798 166259 0 0 210690 182550 211969 249872 265946 1121027 0 0 1121027 59 35 29 32 181 336 0 59 35 29 32 181 336 0 0 210749 182585 211998 249904 266127 1121363 0.99970 0.99980 0.00030 0.00020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 229154 229154 460719 8638 452081 29972 1050 28922 52946 44076 8870 719027 X X X X X X false ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT 30650 30650 6478 2836 3097 30650 30650 6478 2836 3097 12411 18239 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The form 990 is submitted to the entire board for review, prior to filing.
