We are an animal rescue that believes in giving shelter animals a voice and happy home. We take in unwanted or abused dogs and cats from local high kill shelters we prepare them for adoption and find the perfect match for the adoptive family and the animal.

We take in animals from overcrowded state-funded shelters when they have overflow specific medical cases and behavioral cases of animals not doing well in a shelter setting. We vet them and get to know tham and evaluate applications for their home in exchange for an adoption fee. In 2025 we took in 178 new animals and adopted out 145!
