Overview
Mission
The mission of Education and Animal Rescue Society (EARS) is to educate the public about issues concerning animal behavior and proper for care for pets including an emphasis on vaccinations, spay and neutering, and nutrition. Further, EARS is committed to finding homes for unwanted animals that would otherwise perish in shelters. EARS keeps all of its animals in homes with volunteer "foster families" where the animals are loved, trained, and treated like a part of the family until the right permanent home is found. All EARS' animals are current on their vaccines, have received proper veterinary care, and are spayed or neutered prior to being placed in a permanent home.
What it reported doing in 2024
EARS paid for proper veterinary care including vaccinations and spaying and neutering, as applicable, for several feral cats and over 17 dogs during 2024 as well as providing such dogs with necessary behavior training and medical and health supplies.
