This stray dog had been running in Everett for days. UBS volunteers helped him get safe, using Calming Signals. He doesn’t seem to have a microchip. Please share his post so he can find his people. He is at the Everett Shelter currently. If you would like to foster him, please let the shelter know.
In August of 2021, UBS was asked to capture 4 unruly puppies who appeared to have been dumped at a trailhead near Snoqualmie. 3 years later, Donatello, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael are all happily adopted. They had a reunion yesterday, and all of their parents enjoyed watching them play. Recently, UBS has had major veterinary expenses for the dogs in our care, including a new batch of five puppies who will need to be spayed and neutered. Our funds have been running low. Please donate and help us help dogs like these Ninja Turtles.
Stray in Issaquah. Please share.
Stray dog
Found in Issaquah
Do you recognize this beautiful dog? UBS volunteers were finally able to catch her after she had been on the run for a month. She was first seen in Everett, and captured in Seattle. Please help us find her people.
Found in Tukwila
Male, no microchip. He had been hanging around the fire station on 59th Ave for several months. Please help this sweet boy find his family.
All of us at Useless Bay Sanctuary would like to thank our donors, volunteers, and supporters for helping us throughout 2023. Together, we have saved many dogs who probably would not have survived without our help. Dogs such as Nini, who escaped in Issaquah and ran loose for weeks, traveling over the top of Tiger Mountain, before being caught by a UBS volunteer in Preston, miles from home. The three dogs in this 3-minute video are all UBS dogs. Tino was captured in 2016, in the mountains, where he almost certainly would have died without the knowledge and equipment of UBS volunteers deployed to save him and his mother. Raphael was captured in August of 2021, along with his three brothers. They had been abandoned in the wilderness, and probably would have died without the assistance of UBS volunteers. Raven showed up at a house in Renton as puppy 4 months old, and the finders asked UBS to help them out when it became clear that she had too much energy for their household. Tino has become a great search dog, finding lost dogs, and he has saved the lives of four dogs this year. Raphael has learned to find lost cats, and he is on his way to a great career. Raven is in training to find lost dogs, and all indications are that she will be great at it someday. These dogs and hundreds of others are enjoying wonderful lives because of your support. Thank you.
The veterinary needs of UBS dogs has outpaced donations this year, so we still need your help. Every day, UBS is made aware of dogs that could benefit from our assistance, if only we had the volunteers and donations. If you can squeeze in one more donation before the end of the year, it will make a huge difference in the lives of dogs in need.
Please watch the video to the end, to see Raven’s belly flop. Please share this video.
GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past 10 years, this idea has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give and celebrate generosity. The annual celebration of Giving Tuesday this year is today, November 28, 2023.
Unleash your generosity today and give to support Useless Bay Sanctuary (UBS). We are a 100% volunteer driven non-profit organization and 100% of your donation directly goes to support UBS dogs.
Founded in 2013, UBS’s mission is to help stray dogs that might not get help using the resources of traditional animal shelters and rescues. We have the experience and tools specific to hard-to-catch dogs. We also have the flexibility to persist in helping a dog that may fall outside the jurisdiction or skill set of other rescues and shelters. Once we capture a lost dog, we make every reasonable effort to find the original owner. If we can’t find the original owner, we place dogs’ new homes that have been screened, to give our dogs the best life possible.

Comet needs a foster
We are still looking for a foster for this sweet boy. Once we have a foster lined up, we can get him the help he needs for his injuries.
