You helped

15,100

animals in 2014.

hen Anna Harris Smith founded the Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL) in 1899, she aspired to provide animals a haven from the poor and sometimes cruel treatment they often suffered.

Thanks to the kindness and compassion of supporters who offered their barns to the ARL, hundreds of animals received shelter and care when they needed it most.

Without the generosity of those original supporters, the ARL simply could not have answered the call for help.

Today, the ARL helps thousands of animals in even more ways than Anna Harris Smith originally imagined 116 years ago. In addition to our shelters in Boston, Brewster, and Dedham, our rescue services, law enforcement team, and mobile Spay Waggin’ actively deliver assistance in our community.

The red barn in our logo reminds us of the essential role our supporters continue to play in making our work possible.

2014 Annual Report

From the President & Chairman of the Board

D e ar

F ri e n ds,

When Anna Harris Smith got into the “business” of protecting the welfare of animals in Massachusetts over a hundred years ago, she knew she had a long road ahead of her.

Shifting long-held beliefs about the treatment of animals and prevailing opinions about how to improve their lives in the short and long term was by no means an easy or popular task.

Yet she believed so deeply that there was a necessary, better, and even transformative alternative, she dedicated all of her resources and energies to pursuing it. She rallied a strong and committed group of supporters who felt just as troubled by animal suffering and very much wanted to help.

Though many of the animal welfare issues have changed since Anna first began her life’s work, we see evidence every day that we are still travelling on that long road.

Animal hoarding, for example, is an increasingly frequent and challenging problem that cities and towns throughout Massachusetts struggle to address.

In 2014, when local law enforcement discovered 199 dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles living in deplorable conditions, stacked in cages and crates in different areas of a Massachusetts home, they called for help.

The entire ARL organization mobilized a response. Our rescue services team helped remove and transport many of the animals to our shelters where our shelter and community veterinary team provided emergency treatment. We took in and provided on-going care for the sudden influx of animals, and eventually found them homes.

Even as we respond to the immediate needs of animals, we continue to invest time and energy into thoroughly exploring emerging trends in animal welfare and challenges in our community to develop a strategic plan for the organization’s future.

We are in the final phase of our analysis and discussion, and look forward to announcing where we see the ARL growing and expanding in order to better reach and assist animals.

Though the “business” of protecting the welfare of animals has not gotten any easier, we stand where we are today — able to help thousands of animals ever year — because of supporters like you.

In general, many more charitable causes ask every day for a contribution — sometimes multiple times a day — to help them achieve their mission.

We imagine that there are many issues and societal problems you care about and want to solve.

For all of these reasons and more, we feel truly honored that you have chosen to give to the ARL. We feel as inspired by your commitment to improving the way we treat and care for animals in our state as Anna once did.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mary Nee P r e sid e n T

Malcolm McDonald B o ard C hair

We know many more organizations assist animals locally, nationally, and internationally than in Anna’s day.

Your generosity at work | Animals’ lives, changed for the better

YOU GAVE‌

Zorro a chance at a safer life In one of the largest hoarding situations the ARL has responded to in recent years, the ARL partnered with other local animal welfare organizations to remove 199 animals from a home in Lynnfield, Massachusetts.

Sixty animals rescued from the home came to the ARL shelter in Boston, many suffering from serious health issues resulting from neglect.

Zorro and five other dogs, for example, arrived filthy and matted. They received a complete medical evaluation, spay or neuter, proper nutrition, and a bath. Shelter staff provided attention and individualized care to help Zorro acclimate to having space and freedom to go outdoors to play.

Within just a few weeks of his rescue, Zorro and all of the dogs had found new homes.

2014 Annual Report

YOU GAVE…

Madeline a chance at a better life YOU GAVE…

Mabel a chance at a healthier life

When Madeline, an 8-yearold cat, first arrived at the ARL’s Dedham shelter, she could not move her back legs because her fur had become severely twisted and tangled. A kind Samaritan discovered her crumpled in a ball where someone had left her, and shelter staff shaved off several inches of matted fur from 70% of her body.

Madeline’s back legs had become so weak from her inability to move, she had to relearn how to walk. Staff gave her time post-shave to recuperate and get to know them before carefully and caringly beginning to work with her to get her walking.

They gently moved her back legs, three times a day. As she built up some strength, they gradually helped her stand on

her own by placing her in a sling to support her weight while she got up on all fours. Eventually, staff worked with her on walking across the floor and maneuvering changes in elevation.

As her mobility and strength improved, the focus shifted to getting Madeline ready for adoption. She spent time with an ARL foster volunteer in a home environment to re-acclimate to living with people, and returned to the shelter to meet her new family.

By all reports, Maddie, as she is now called, is the “princess of the house.” She walks very well and can climb up and down the stairs in her new home.

She happily spends the day playing with toys and looking out at the world from her window perch.

As Barbara Prada, an animal control officer in Edgartown explained, for some pet owners on Martha’s Vineyard, “getting their animals spayed or neutered was so out of reach for them financially.” While they can feed and provide care for their pets, medical services can add a significant strain.

Making matters worse, no veterinary clinics on the island currently accept Massachusetts Animal Fund vouchers, which cover all the costs of spay or neuter surgery for state residents in financial need.

Through a collaborative effort between the ARL’s mobile Spay Waggin’ surgical unit and animal control officers (ACOs) on Martha’s Vineyard and in

Falmouth, Mabel and 8 other dogs boarded the ferry from the Vineyard to the mainland in a first-of-its-kind effort to provide island residents with highquality, affordable spay and neuter services.

With the help of the ACOs, Spay Waggin’ staff evaluated all the animals and prepared them for surgery. All the animals received a post-operative evaluation and went home with instructions for their owners for care at home.

In addition to the health benefits having a pet spayed or neutered provides, the ACOs report the ARL’s Spay Waggin’ will also help manage pet overpopulation on the island.

was surrendered to the ARL because of medical issues. She was blind in both eyes, and had cataracts and retinal detachment. The ARL’s shelter veterinary team removed her eyes and animal care staff helped her recover after surgery.

Thanks to you, today Myrtle is healthy and happy in a new home.

to the ARL. Previous living situations caused her to become withdrawn and aggressive to people. The ARL’s animal care staff helped Missy learn to trust people again through enrichment and behavior training. Thanks to you, today Missy likes to cuddle and give doggie kisses in her new home.

We continued to manage our resources prudently and ended the year with a small surplus. We received a clean audit with no management findings from our independent auditors, Alexander, Aronson, Finning and Company.

At the end of 2014, the Center for Shelter Dogs (CSD) moved from the ARL to its new home at the Shelter Medicine Program and Center for Animals and Public Policy at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University.

The decline in restricted revenues reflects the transfer of CSD. Very importantly, public support revenues generated from individual donors increased year over year.

Greg Sweeney, director of marketing and administration of Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, experienced the positive effect of a partnership with the ARL, when a shopper came into the Back Bay location of the high-end furniture retailer and explained why she was buying a decorative pitcher at the store.

“She told me she couldn’t afford to shop at our location, but she had heard that Mitchell Gold had helped the ARL. She said she wanted to support us, because we had supported the ARL.” — Greg Sweeney, director of marketing and administration of Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams

“I’ve been involved with the ARL since 2010 when I adopted my cat, Phoebe, and soon after became a monthly donor. I’ve always been passionate about animals. I am constantly amazed by the work that the ARL does, so I’m honored to be involved in as many ways as I possibly can.”
