***PLEASE READ REX'S STORY AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE***

 

      Our purpose is to help find neglected and orphaned animals loving homes. We work with the Murray-Calloway County Animal Shelter, along with other local volunteers to help foster out these animals and find them good homes. All of our animal rescues come from the Murray-Calloway County animal shelter or near by kill shelters. We rescue the animal the day that they are going to euthanize it, get it up to date on all shots, wormed, tested, and spayed/neutered and try to find it a loving home. Sometimes they just need a little more time.If you would like to help by fostering an animal, please contact us on our contact us page.  Unfortunately we cannot accept owner surrenders.

      Right now we have our hands full with trying to save the animals who are out of second chances and have no one else to turn to. PLEASE if you are considering giving up your pet, try to find it a good home before you take it to a shelter. 70% of owner surrender's at shelters are euthanized as soon as you leave. This is because they are usually overcrowded and have to keep the stray animals for at least 5 days. The shelter is a place for animals that are lost or orphaned. It does not need to be a place where you can just drop off your animal when you don't want it anymore. BE RESPONSIBLE!!!They are living, breathing animals, that trust, love, and depend on you to take care of them. Please keep that in mind when you realize that you cannot keep him/her anymore and try to find your animal a good home. Otherwise you are turning your back on all of the unconditional love and compassion that they have only known to show you and you are commiting the rest of their short lived life on a cold shelter floor, scared and wondering what they did so wrong to get left there. No more pets on the head, or belly rubs. No more quiet nights sleeping in your bed, or the smell of canned dog food, just the relentless barking and smell of fear until their cage door opens. Please think about that!

      "He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion"

 Please click on Rex's picture below to read his story.   Feel free to write a letter to the Judge who made the decision for Rex to be Murdered and ask him why he was so relentless about Rex's fate.  It's not like there wasn't any other alternative!!!  No, the letter won't bring Rex back, but it might help change the fate of the next animal that this happens to.

***Please know that teathering a dog promotes fear and aggression!!! They have a flight or fight instinct and when they are confronted with the unknown, are scared, and cannot get away ("flight"), they fall back on their natural instict which is to fight!****
