PLEASE HELP SAVE A LIFE!!!
All these German Shepherds have one thing in common; they have a white piece of tape around their necks. The white piece of tape bought them another day, another day so a volunteer could send their pictures to us and beg for help for these sweet dogs. Every single one of them is so adoptable; our finances are such that we can’t help anyone without a sponsor. None are spayed and neutered, they need shots plus we need at least a few weeks of boarding, so if anyone can help us with $300 or any part of three hundred together we can save one more life. These sweethearts are waiting at the County Shelter, they are just too young to die yet, most have hardly lived. We just can’t let this happen. They are depending on us, meaning our wonderful supporters! How could money be better spent? We have little time left, please help!
9 SAVED, 4 MORE TO GO!! Thank you!!

Anybody want to help save me too?
All the dogs in my kennel at the county shelter are German Shepherds, they all have white ribbons around their necks, I really want one too. Many already know they are leaving soon, I would really like to go too!

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT

The choices we have to make every day can be heartbreaking. With your financial support we can put a smile on the faces of dogs like Bella.

PLEASE HELP!

MESSAGE FROM ROBIN
We are torn with terrible choices. The county and city shelters are full of German Shepherds who haven’t gotten the care they need. A sweet girl just arrived from a shelter in Downey with a cracked pelvis, another with a paw fracture, another with pneumonia. We have 16 dogs under veterinary care, our vet bills are running between $15,000 to $17,000 a month, we get huge discounts but it is still beyond what we can handle. It is so heartbreaking to walk away from a friendly, tail wagging, young and beautiful dog because we don’t have the money to help them. In this economy people are giving up their dogs because they can’t pay for their care, we have never had medical bills like this before. A man whose two dogs got out and picked up by animal control, one was hit by a car and had a leg fracture; the man came to the shelter and just took the healthy one home, as far as he knew the other was going to be euthanized.  We saved him, and he is an amazing dog who loves his new family and is devoted to the children. We really need help, people always tell us to let them know when we really need their help. This is the time! Summers are always terrible, people think it is a convenient time just before vacation to dump their dogs in a shelter or even worse just let them go to avoid the $25 relinquish fee. The dogs are often hurt by the time animal control catches them. About 80% of the dogs we rescued are supposedly “strays”, they are just dogs given up by people afraid to have to pay a relinquish fee. This summer is even worse, people often just leave their dogs in the backyard and move away, we get calls often from neighbors. We need the help of good people to make this a better world for the animals! Any help is so appreciated, Thank you, Robin

We need foster homes desperately!
We need short term fosters for puppies in the L.A. area, we need fosters for the older ones who do badly in a kennel after being in a home for most of their lives. We need some experienced people to work with the ones who need some training and those that just haven’t been taught house manners. We will take whatever time you have to give to these deserving dogs. Please contact
