The journey in providing rescued animals a Safe Spot and Forever Homes

Our founder, Shelley Brinkley has evolved from a young girl rescuing animals, to a Local Grassroots Animal Rescue Advocate. Shelley’s spirit encompasses her childhood dream: rescuing and saving every animal as possible. “They deserve a life of comfort, compassion, and companionship”. Don’t we all?!

Her journey has led her to assisting in searching missing animals, rescued animals on her own, assisted in the adoption process of other rescues, shelters, and personally taken a stand in the community by housing neglected, abused, and/or owner relinquished animals into her own home.

With nearly a decade in pursuing the dream, her trailblazing spirit and action, combined with honest ambition, CLAWS AND PAWS RESALE in Olney, IL opened in 2019, thus began the “Safe Spot for All Paws” Campaign. The goal continues to provide this safe spot and thus placing these beautiful animals in a “Forever Home”. Later in 2019, the animals that Shelley continually rescues were blessed with the Grand Opening of the Animal Rescue Center located at the CLAWS AND PAWS RESALE shop.

Donations and volunteers alike continue in building and sustaining its mission...
