Program accomplishments

  • Now caring for about four (4) adoptable dogs at a time; providing rehabilitation, vetting, housing, and training. Focus is on each individual rescue and their specific needs. Limiting the number of intakes (dogs) to ensure proper quality of care, efficient use of resources, reduce financial costs, and increase the likelihood of adoption. Provide hospice care for dogs; vetting, providing comfort care, and end-of-life care. This might be direct with a local shelter or through other non-profit rescue groups. As of 2020, we will start accepting 2 hospice dogs at a time (so that they keep each-other company). Help the community and other rescue warriors by offering networking, dog training, assessments, microchips, donation of supplies, education, and short-term fostering. We also sponsor spay/neuter to approx. 3-5 dogs per year. Continue assessing, networking, & training service dog candidates to donate to people in-need. Continue apprenticing under a dog trainer to provide skills for Lucky Dogs and other rescue dogs that I choose to sponsor.
