SAFEPETS ARE HAPPY PETS!

Did you know animal abuse is present in 71% of domestic violence cases? Many victims will stay with their abuser for fear of their pet’s safety should they leave the pet behind and most shelters do not allow pets. Since starting our SafePet Program in July of 2021, 45 pets have found safe haven with us. Our program is unlike any other in the area and we are thrilled to be able to fill in the gaps for animals in need in our community!

UNWANTED AUCTION DOG NOW A BOYS BEST FRIEND!

After our 14-year-old pitbull died, we were hesitant to get another dog. Four years later, our son (12) was begging for one. ("Mom, I'll give up video games if we could just get a dog!") He found Hopper (then "Lamar") on Rescue One's website and we set up a meeting with the foster Tiffany. About two minutes into that meeting, I knew I couldn't say no to this boy or this dog. The first day we had Hopper, he wouldn't leave my son's side. He quickly won the hearts of every member of the family He loves to chase grasshoppers, make new friends at the dog park, and ride in the car in the hopes of getting a pup cup. We've had Hopper just over a month and he has brought us so much joy He's one of us now, a member of our pack, and part of our family.
