Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Improve the lives of shelter dogs and provide necessary vet care for these seniors who would otherwise have nothing. We strongly believe and will strive to improve the quality of life for senior dogs left behind in shelters and in dire need of care and compassion in their golden years. We also believe in strong and ethical partner relationships, to include a all foster based rescue. We also will help educate owners who feel a shelter may be their only resource available for their senior companion.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
In 2024, the year of saving dogs, cats, and kittens, we rescued a total of 21 animals! We provided full medical care?including spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, and microchips?to every animal. We were successful in finding homes for all, with the exception of one special senior, Gracie, who remains with us as a "forever foundation cat" due to her daily medical needs. Our rescues broke down as follows: Five Dogs: We rescued three seniors(Speedy, Poppy ?Olive,? and Leo) from local WA shelters, along with one young behavioral case (Boomer ?Quincy?) and one owner surrender(Cookie). Eleven Adult Cats: We saved three senior street cats from our managed colony (Mittens ?BonBon,? Lola, and Grandma). We also accepted two surrenders (senior Gracie, and Freeway, found on an off-ramp). Finally, we trapped Lucy (a mom cat) and her brother, Charlie. We also worked with the owner of the other kittens' father to ensure he was neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Nine Kittens from two separate litters were successfully trapped and prepared for adoption.-$55,972
