⚠️FOSTER NEEDED! ⚠️

TRAMP is one charming dude!
This 2-year-old male Pom/Husky mix is neutered and ready to rock.
He's awesome with kids and other dogs, but let's just say cats aren't his cup of tea.
The guy's got energy to spare, so be prepared for some serious playtime.

Don't worry about the expenses, we've got food, medical, and transportation covered.

Want to foster this goofball?

Head over to our website, fill out that foster form, and get ready for some serious snuggles.

Do you remember Ramses???

He was tied to a tree with only a food bowl and due to that… He developed resource gardening and he didn’t have a lot of trust for anyone…

Melissa our CEO worked with him one on one where even she had to ask her volunteers not to come to the sanctuary because he would not allow anyone inside other than Melissa…

Melissa did one on one with Ramses and even invited him into her home to show him how to be a house dog…

Once he started to adjust, we started doing meet and greets… which resulted into him being adopted into a farm property with an amazing guy named Eric!

Here’s an update photo of Ramses of Christmas 2024 🥰🥰🥰

Thank you to everyone that supports us.. Ramses is grateful also 🙂

Dear friends,

Many of you already might know, we had to “restart” all of our social media accounts, as we “lost” them this time last year! 😳 Ugh.

It was a HUGE disappointing blow for the gang, considering how hard they have worked over the past few years!

We are currently ONLY 46 people away from reaching our goal! Our Artists would love to celebrate this accomplishment with a pizza party in January 🍕

So we are having a contest!

✅ Like this post
✅ Follow our page
✅ Tag a friend- only one per entry please but you can enter as many times as you like!

Your name will be entered into our CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY where one person will win a custom or in stock design of their choice!🎄🎄

One name will be drawn on December 20 th, 2024

Our Mission.

We are here, not to make money.. we are here to give dogs another chance at a better life. Whether they were in a bad situation or just need a better situation than they are in now.

Our kennel is both Profit & Non-Profit as we make profit from our dog boarding and daycare services however, when we take in a dog and have it surrendered to us, we lose income due to give these dogs a stall to board until they find a home. We also try very hard to keep our rescues in our reach instead of sending them out to foster homes so that we can minimalize their interaction with so many different environments and people. Our staff all have medical backgrounds in Animal Medicine. Some work in vet clinics and some have vet clinic experience. We have designed to make this place as comfortable as we can for all the dogs. we have a TV, a fireplace, couches and the property is fully fenced. We have no cages here.. we have designed wooden stalls designed to keep the dogs safe and secure.

We strive to help all animals.. and whenever someone adopts from us. If they ever feel the need to board with us.. we offer a 50% discount to the new fur parent to be able to keep in contact with rescues and we get to reconnect with everyone!

Thank you for all your support in helping us grow and giving more dogs chances of having a better fulfilled life.
