2026: GROWING OUR TEAM, GROWING YOUR IMPACT
Because of your generosity, we've been able to do more than just save animals. We've been able to grow our team and double our ability to care for more lives!
2026: GROWING OUR TEAM, GROWING YOUR IMPACT
At the beginning of 2026, our team consisted of just three employees: our Founder and Director, an Administrative Assistant and one Kennel Technician. As the number of animals coming through our doors continued to grow, so did the need for more helping hands.
With approximately 30 dogs at our facility at any given time, including many with medical needs, we desperately needed more hands to provide care and more capacity to say YES to animals who urgently needed a safe place.
Thanks to your continued support, we have been able to bring on three additional part-time employees! This was the biggest game changer in being able to nearly double the number of animals we saved this year.

Every Dog Has a Story
Behind the 827 animals we've saved this year are 827 individual stories. Many come to us with serious medical needs, and every one of them gets the care they need to heal and find their way home.

Sparkles
Our current shelter mascot, Sparkles is 4 years old and the heart of our shelter. He came to us after being found sleeping outdoors in the middle of winter, and today he is recovering from heartworm in a warm, safe kennel.
Along the way he has become the best dog-dad to the puppies coming through our doors, and he keeps our staff smiling every single day.

Your Impact in Action
Your Impact in Action
Did you know that what started as a simple shed, and then a tiny house, has grown into a rescue that saved more than 800 animals this year?! All because of your donations.
BEFORE
DURING
AFTER
You have helped us expand our rescue facilities and create more space for dogs who need us. This expansion has been absolutely critical to our ability to save lives.
In our town, finding fosters is incredibly challenging. Animal welfare isn't part of the local culture, which means there aren't enough homes willing or able to open their doors. Because of this, our ability to save animals often came down to one very important thing: having the physical space to safely house them ourselves.
Without adequate kennel space, we would have had to turn away animals simply because we had nowhere to put them. Expanding our kennel area has allowed us to provide a safe place for animals whose lives depended on it.
