We are a group of volunteers dedicated to helping the Gentle Giants.

Our Mission Statement

To act as a shepherd for Saint Bernard dogs and puppies that are
without suitable caretakers and are in need of help.

To shelter the homeless; to care for and find homes
for the unwanted, abandoned, neglected and abused.

To feed the hungry; to provide medical services to the sick, injured and lame; to assist in the rescue of those subjected to conditions hazardous to their well-being or to confinement in government or private shelter, who without intervention would be needlessly Euthanized.

To provide for the humane disposition of those not sound in mind, body or temperament; to educate the public as to the characteristics of, and proper care for, the breed so as
to promote compatible, loving, lasting home/family placements.

To educate the public as to responsible pet ownership so as to prevent accidental litters and to prevent inhumane trafficking in puppies and dogs, and so as to promote the most humane manner of disposition of pets at journey's end.

To encourage, promote and support research respecting the breed that explores or improves relations between the breed and owners or sheds light on the causes of abandonment, neglect or abuse, or promotes the public's understanding of the special characteristics and attributes of the breed or that is designed to improve the welfare of the breed in any manner.

Hello Saint Adopters and Saint Lovers,

Summer is upon us once again and we are being bombarded with "Owner Turn-Ins" as well as shelter dogs. Last month we got a total of 8 saints into rescue within a 7 day period. That is just the beginning of what Summer means to rescue.

We are drowning in vet bills and boarding costs.

Dear, sweet Buddy from Ridgecrest had hip problems and mange. It was a long haul, but he was finally well enough to be placed in a wonderful home in Orange County.

You can see how quickly 300.00 adoption fee can be eaten by a $1000.00 vet bill. At this moment we are not breaking even.

The majority of "Owner Turn-Ins" are coming to us needing EVERYTHING, which includes shots, spay/neuters, flea control, baths, antibiotics for kennel cough, deworming and heartworm tests.

We will need some help in order to continue saving the Saints here in Southern Ca.

We realize that things are tough everywhere and if you cannot give right now we understand, BUT, for those of you who can help, if you will give just a little, it would be deeply appreciated and if you can give more then that would be wonderful! Like we've said before - EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS and we know the BERNARD'S will appreciate it!

We are gratefully accepting all offers (nothing is too small).
