We are an all-volunteer non profit animal rescue organization dedicated to saving the lives of pets in the Northwest Florida area that have "special" needs or are homeless/abandoned/abused or neglected;

We provide or assist in providing:

Rescue, foster care, veterinary/rehabilitation care and sterilization for animals in our area and/or located in government funded shelters or "kill" shelters t

hat would otherwise be euthanized or harmed;

Assist other animal rescues and shelters throughout the area needing help to relocate rescued pets, including assistance in transporting the pet(s) to a safe and secure re-homing environment;

Foster care for animals surrendered or abandoned by their owners who either can no longer provide for the pets or no longer wish to have them in their homes;

Adoption of rescued pets to qualified homes that have been properly screened and counseled by our adoption coordinators and foster parents to maintain the pet in a loving home for its lifetime;

Training of leadership team members and volunteers in the areas of humane education, animal welfare, animal behavior and care, and disaster response;

Education to the public in the form of flea infestation control and heartworm prevention in pets, adoption counseling, pet behavior consultation and training, addressing any behavioral/medical/special needs issues, low-cost microchip clinics, and hurricane evacuation planning. OUR GOAL is to lower euthanasia rates at county animal controls by bringing adoptable pets into our program for medical and social rehabilitation and re-homing.

8-21-24 - C.A.R.T. assisted in the transport of Betsy for Furry Friends of the Panhandle that was sending her to her new daddy (in photo) in South Florida. A great match for the adorable puppy. She was shy but loved to be petted.

8-11-24 - Lia ia a wirehaired terrier mix puppy that C.A.R.T. hleped along her 2nd & final day of travel from Texas to Georgia. She was headed to Love of Littles Dog Rescue foster family. She was a sweetheart & always had floppy left ear that really made her look so unique & cute. She will definitely be adopted quickly.

8-10-24 - C.A.R.T. picked up Betsy & Calypso that were going to Tampa Bay Beagle Rescue fosters in South Floirda. Betsy was so cute with her washable diaper. Calypso had a terrible skin condition on most of his body. His little ears were minus any hair, & a lot of hair on body missing. However, his spirits were the greatest. He loved rolling back & forth on his back in the grass. When you meet some of the dogs on transport, you want to kneel down & give praises to God for all the people who become involved in rescuing them & giving them that special new lease on life.

8-9-24 - C.A.R.T. helped this smiley doggie named Weeble along his journey to an adopter in St. Cloud, Florida. This 4 mo. old puppy is an Aussie/Lab mix. Very shy but waggy tail all the way. Volunteering a total of about 3 hours of your time is such a great way of helping pets get to adopters or fosters & know they are being given a second chance in life.

8-3-24 - C.A.R.T. acquired Dex on Jully 13th as a temporary foster for Tampa Bay Beagle Rescue. Today we took him to Marianna, Fl where he headed on further south to another foster where he will be receiving his heartworm test. Hopefully he will be negative. He is only 40 lbs. but very strong & an escape artist. He climbed our 4' fence with nose to ground & neighbor 2 doors down heard his dogs barking. It was Dex trying to get into their pen for water. Neighbor brought him back to me. He learned to sit & take treats gently & to not pull so hard on his leash. He was one rowdy fella. Loved to play tug-of-war. Dex will have 2 other sibling fosters to keep him entertained. Gonna miss him but know he is gonna find a great forever family.

8-1-24 - Seattle was helped along his 2nd & final day of journey by C.A.R.T. He came from Texas & going to an approved adopter in South Florida. He was so sweet, but a gentle & sneaky thief that managed to grab & gobble a few treats were actually intended for the humans. He is a great dog & will have 2 siblings. He was surprised to find a horse but figured it all all to his satisfaction.

7-29-24 Dakota & Lemon werr headed from LA to FL from Southeast Beagle to their rescue adopters in South Florida. C.A.R.T. was proud to assist them on their 2nd & final day of a journey to new lives. Lemon had upset tummy & upchucked with nearly every volunteer transporter - think it was nerves. Bless her heart! They were great passengers & slept a lot of the time.

7-25-14 - C.A.R.T.'s 2nd transport of the day was to go to Marianna & pick up Millie & bring her back to Mossy Head for transport further west. She was headed to Happy Hearts Rescue in Texas. She is on her first day of travel. She is so sweet to all who meet her. She has great layover in Pensacola with Pam Langley who always spoils her overnight guests & sends them on their way the next morn with many goodies. We are so proud to be a part of volunteer transporters that assist pets on their way to better lives.

PLEASE HELP US FIND A GREAT HOME & SHARE HIS DESIRES & NEEDS

***PLEASE HELP US FIND SHAGGY A FOREVER FAMILY***
BEEN WITH US NEARLY 4 MONTHS ***HE RATES A 10 (BEING THE BEST)
SHAGGY IS AVAILABLE THRU ALAQUA ANIMAL REFUGE IN FREEPORT, FL & IS BEING FOSTERED IN MOSSY HEAD (NW DEFUNAK SPRINGS) He is a 5-yr. Old Dachshund blend with 2 white front paws & weighs about 29 lbs.

Shaggy needs slow intro to male dogs – took a few hours & exchanging my 2 males & him between 2 crates. When my male dogs tried to sniff him, he would growl. Needs to be kept leashed to harness & have him follow you around until you feel he has adjusted & is comfortable with his surroundings & people. He is not a barker & loves people.

He adjusted quickly & is now friends with my my 3 male dogs. He loves sleeping on bed & following you wherever you go. He is not an active doggie unless you want to play. Then he is ready.

When it is treat time, pets line up & Shaggy waits patiently utnil his name is called & takes treats very gently.

I feed all pets separately. Shaggy was put into kennel to eat just one time. Now he goes there immediately when you call him & place bowl inside kennel & secure it until he is finished.

He does not try to jump the fences I have in front & back of house.

He knows some commands – Din-Din, No-No, stomp foot & say Stay when opening door to go out

He is the bestest companion ever, & I think he would be best suited for a quiet family.

7-21-24 - C.A.R.T. helped Astra, Capri & Sahara on the 3rd & final day of their journey from Texas to Florida. They wee headed to Rescue Rebels approved fosters in South Florida. One of the German Shepherds was an adult & quite large. However, all were great in letting them out on tarp to drink water & go potty. I feel so privileged that God has allowed me the health & finances to do volunteer transports, as well as fostering older, special needs pets.
