ABOUT OUR PETS

We rescue most of our pets from local roads and woods, where they were abandoned. As space permits, we also pull pets facing euthanasia from pets control facilities all over the state. We rarely take owner-surrendered pets because of limitations on space, help and time. But we are willing to help owners find new homes for their pets or for strays they have found by posting courtesy listings on our website and directing them to other channels through which they can advertise pets for adoption.

We quarantine new pets for a minimum of two weeks before making them available for adoption. If they are six months or older, we test them for worms and treat them if they test positive. Pets six months and older are also spayed or neutered before adoption. All are wormed and receive age-appropriate vaccinations at intake and are placed on monthly, year-round heartworm prevention. Pets with medical issues receive all needed vet care and medications or surgeries.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

We are a small, all-volunteer organization and do not have a shelter facility or regular visiting hours. Our pets live with foster parents, in different homes in the Rockland County area. For that reason, please call or email to make an appointment if you would like to meet our pets. That way, we can tell you which pets are where, and arrange a time for you to visit. If you are interested in a particular pets or live some distance from us, we recommend completing our adoption application and getting approval to adopt before coming to visit. This allows you to take a pets home with you, rather than making another trip.

HELP SAVE A LIFE - DONATE TODAY

Your donations help us rescue, rehabilitate and maintain our pets until we can find them permanent homes. Some of the pets we rescue need emergency or intensive medical care at intake, while others require corrective surgery down the line. We also have special needs pets, which use a K9 cart to get around, and other pets with chronic conditions that require lifelong medication. ALL need the basics of food, housing, bedding, and vaccinations. (Rising costs have now pushed our pet’s food bill to more than $600/month.) We can't do it without support from pets lovers like you
