We are dedicated to caring for
stray, abandoned, abused and neglected dogs. Dogs will
be rescued from kill shelters and brought to the nearest sanctuary.
We will provide shelter, food and medical care until an
approved adoptive home can be found.

We are dedicated to bringing
shelters, animal control officials and rescue groups together
to work towards our common goals and ending the practice of mass
euthanasia. Through this partnership we can stop duplicating
our efforts and help each other to use funds more effectively
for the animals.

We will have
mobile rescue vehicles rescuing "last chance" dogs
from kill shelters throughout the U.S.
|
|
7. |
We will work
with other rescue groups, shelters and humane groups to adopt
our formula so that sanctuaries of this kind can be located all
over the U.S.
|
|
8. |
We will implement
programs for youth groups, scout groups, school groups and church
groups to volunteer at each sanctuary. These programs will help
us educate the public on its misconceptions about "second-hand
dogs" and introduce them to the rewards of adoption. Through
adoptions, education, community service and outreach, we will
strive to (1) promote responsible pet ownership to improve the
quality of life for animals in our community, and (2) enhance
relationships between animals and people.

the public on responsible pet ownership, spay/neuter benefits
and the rewards of adopting a homeless dog.

10. |
We will provide
a low-cost spay/neuter clinic and, through outreach and education
about the benefits of spaying and neutering, work towards reducing
the number of unwanted pets.

We will aid Mexico
and Puerto Rico (through Puerto Rico's SATO program) in adopting
our formula to help them stabilize their stray dog problems.
