Our Mission

We are advocates for the outcasts, a voice for the unwanted. We believe all dogs deserve a loving home and just like people, they all deserve a second chance at happiness.

Services We Offer

Adoptions

Adoption Process

First, we do ask that an application be filled out on the animal the person is interested in. Once approved, we can set up to meet the animal, which will already be vetted (spayed or neutered, vaccinated, heart worm tested, etc.). The fee for adoption starts at $125. There is a contract that also needs signed at the time of adoption.

Special Programs & Areas Served

Areas Served: We mostly pull from the Nelson County animal shelter. It is a high kill shelter that does not adopt out. The will euth within a day for owner surrenders, 5 days for strays.

For adoptions, we have had adoptions all over the country.
