Important Information - Please Read:

PLEASE READ THIS INFORMATION: (THESE ARE NOT PUPPY MILL DOGS).

The Actual cost to rescue and adopt - one of these and many other beautiful dogs is around $500, but with the help of our donations, that's NOT what you will pay to adopt. You, and You alike, can actually adopt-a-dog for only $200 plus the cost of the crate. We're not kidding! With the help of our donations - we are able to ensure all dogs are adopted to loving, caring families. That's only.... $200 for a LIFE-LONG friend and family member. Kennels usually run between $50 & $80 depending on the size of the dog.

SO... what should cost you $500, will only cost you around $270. So why is this rate discounted: $230?

"DONATIONS"

Donations from good people like you. Caring people who realize that every DONATION, no Matter what size, can help make the difference between "LIFE or DEATH", for one of these wonderful companions. Donations will offset the remaining balance and save the lives of 100's, even 1,000's of innocent dogs.

REMEMBER, you don't have to buy a dog to save a life. Your DONATION can really .... HELP!

We are in the process of raising enough funds to ensure all costs are covered and additonal funds are available to save more and more dogs currently in the "HIGH KILL" shelters.

Our Little Girl... "Breanna", will soon be arriving and becoming an important part of our family.

We saved an innocent puppies' life and you can too! PLEASE DONATE today.

I challange every one who views our site to donate even just $1.00.

Pass the word and help us save more lives.

High Kill Shelters - HELP us Raise Funds to Save the dogs.

Did you know that there are some cities in the USA that only keep the dogs in the Shelter for 7 days before they put them to sleep? This week due to Remembrance Day - the dogs dropped off at the shelter this week have 2 lost days. They are scheduled to be "Put Down" Tomorrow - Wednesday. JUST think of what 2 extra does could do......

We are lucky in my area of North America - Shelters do not "Put Down" healthy animals.

I was introduced to an amazing Lady this week. Her Name is Sheri and she resues these dogs. She is a wonderful human being and spends her energy creating amazing art and uses the procedes to pay 90% of the costs of the adoption and only asks a nominal amount for the adoption. The cost usually asked for by Sheri is $200 + cost of the crate - but as you can see by the breakdown below - just how much it truely costs to save a life. The cost is around $500-$600 to ensure the animal is healthy before leaving the care of the volunteers.

Sheri raises funds to ensure that the adoption fee is nominal and that the animals are able to start a new life in a loving environment.

Here is a list of what takes place and the costs of bringing the dogs here: 
$62.50 adoption fee USD (includes spay/neuter and shots)
$ dewormer USD
$Flea control USD
$ any fees for foster care USD
$ 25.oo health certificate USD
$17.00 bordetella (kennel cough) USD
$199 + tax for flight $225? USD
$69.99 + tax crate USD
$8.50 park at airport USD
$14.00 HST Canada Customs CND (aprox)
$ 60.00 cargo handling fee CND

HOW CAN YOU HELP???

PLEASE FORWARD OUR INFORMATION TO ANYONE WHO YOU THINK MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN SAVING A 4 LEGGED LIFE.

If you are interested in donating anything to our cause - Please follow the PAYPAL link on our blog.
100% of ALL MONIES rased will be used in the rescue of more dogs.

* Most dogs dropped off at this shelter are some sort of hound/hunting dog. Coonhouds / Beagles / Mixtures - after their first season of hunting - their owners don't want to keep them through the winter. Imagine your first months of life living outside in a wire cage and being used for hunting!
