Your generosity is key to the number of dogs that we are able to help. We are an all volunteer group, committed to offering a good start to dogs who have unmet medical needs and are released from breeders to rescues. The costs to rescues can sometimes be beyond what they can bear and we are here to support them. Our grants are made directly to a 501c3 rescue, specifically to pay for veterinary care for individual dogs.
