Something to Chew On

Lassie, Rin Tin Tin and Toto don't show up in rescue.

We don't get the elegantly coiffed, classically beautiful, completelty trained, perfectly behaved dog....We get the leftovers.

Dogs that other people have incompetently bred, inadequately socialized, ineffectively "trained", and badly treated.

Most rescue dogs have had it.They've been pushed from one lousy situation to another.

They've never had proper veterinary care, kind and consistent training, or sufficient company.

They've lived outside, in a crate, or in the basement.They're scared, depressed and anxious.

Some are sick, some have given up!

But we are Rescue and we don't give up. We never give up on a dog.

We know that a dog is a living being, with a spirit and a heart and feelings.

Our dogs are not commodities, things, or garbage. They are a part of scared creation,

and they deserve as much love and care and respect as the next Westminister Champion.

So please, please don't come to rescue in the hopes of getting a "bargain" or indeed of "getting" anything.

Come to Rescue to give, to love, to save a life-- and to mend your own spirit.

For rescue will reward you in ways you never thought possible. I can promise you this--

A rescue dog will make you a better person!

"Don't breed or buy while shelter pets die"

Did you know that for every puppy that is born, a dog is killed in a shelter?

So many people don't understand why they shouldn't breed their dog, or buy from a breeder. This video helps explain some of the reasons why.
