Celebrating Second Chances

SHARE YOUR STORY AND SUPPORT SHELTER PETS
Every rescue pet has a story. And every one of them deserves a second chance at a life filled with comfort, trust, and endless love. Through December 7, we're Celebrating Second Chances, and we want to hear your pet's story!
​
To make this celebration incredibly impactful, our generous friends, Susan and Stan Mathews, have committed to match every donation we receive through December 7, up to $30,000! This means your gift is instantly doubled, providing twice the food, twice the vet care, and twice the love to pets waiting for their happy ending.
Share Your Pet's Story
Every shelter pet who walks through our doors has a unique story. 
What makes your adopted pet your greatest love? Submit your pet's "Second Chance" story below.

"We support the shelter because they make such a difference in our community. The innovations introduced by Lorri as director, the love and caring shown by the staff and volunteers, and the innocent lives saved are the inspiration behind our continued support."
