Planning For Your Dog

  • What happens if you can no longer take care of your dog or any of your pets? Don't leave your dog to others to take care of. As a rescue, we come across this problem so many times and the family that is left to deal with loss of a family member and an additional beloved family pet is an emotional burden that can be take care of by you. Please consider making arrangements for your pets with someone. If you have someone, please let us know.
