Hearing that over 30,000,000 animals are being subjected to torment and abuse leaves us with a heavy and hopeless heart, however, our goal is to stay as optimistic as we can with only one mission in mind- to save as many animals from this horrific outcome as we can. We work closely with some amazing organizations in China to not only rescue and repair these damaged souls but then, to actually get them into loving new homes. Once these animals are rescued straight from meat trucks, shelters, or slaughterhouses, they must enter a 2-month quarantine in which they are seen by professional Veterinarians and tested for illnesses and disease. Once cleared, we work hard to find them the absolute best, new homes that simply want to restore all that they have lost. We know we may not save them all but surely, we’re going to try.

THE PURPOSE OF THE ORGANIZATION IS TO RESCUE ANIMALS, PRIMARILY DOGS, FIND FOREVER HOMES FOR THESE ANIMALS, AND EDUCATE THE PUBLIC REGARDING THE BENEFIT OF ADOPTION AND FOSTERING ANIMALS. THROUGH A FOSTERING AND EDUCATION APPROACH, EVERY PUP IS UNITED WITH THEIR PERFECT MATCH. THROUGH OUTREACH AND EDUCATION WE ARE COMMITTED TO PREVENTING DOGS FROM ABANDONMENT AND EASING THE STRESS ON OUR SHELTER SYSTEM.
