Program accomplishments

  • We served 58 pets and 49 people through our Lifelong Guardianship Program. Our signature promise means our pets will always have the home, care, and love they deserve for life, no matter what. In our Lifelong Guardianship Program, pets live on site at our Sanctuary or in the home of a Forever Guardian. Sanctuary pets have special needs and therefore require more supervision and medical care. Our Sanctuary pets spend their days inside our main house or cottage. They have access to couches, beds, toys, and our grassy dog parks. They receive walks and visits from our volunteers. At night, they sleep in crates or in the covers of a human bed. We take pride in thecare our pets receive. The other pets in our care live in the home of a Forever Guardian. The Forever Guardian provides daily exercise, love, and attention, and a safe place to call home. The Pet Cottage covers all veterinary expenses, provides wellness checks, and pet loving community.
