"I looked at all the caged dogs in the shelter... the cast offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry. "God", I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?" God was silent for a moment and then he spoke softly. "I have done something," he replied, " I created you". ("YOU" ARE THE PERSON WHO ADOPTS A SHELTER OR RESCUED PET) Thank you for being part of the solution

Thank you for your interest in adopting/rescuing your new family member. Please click on the video below to see where many pet shop puppies and internet puppies come from. Please adopt from your local shelter or rescue. Every time someone buys a puppy from an unknown source, whether or not those pets have "pedigrees", they are helping to breed misery. If you MUST purchase a dog from the newspaper, PLEASE make sure that you visit the home in which that dog was raised. Make sure that you are not inadvertantly buying a puppy mill dog. You may save THAT dog, but you are helping to secure the future generations of misery. Puppy Mill breeders DO NOT care about you, the future of their puppies, or anything other than the almighty dollar. A rescued/adopted pet most likely will be neutered, have age appropriate vaccines, and many will come microchipped. A puppy mill puppy will come from heartache...........period. Please refuse to purchase products from pet shops who sell puppies and make sure to tell them why.

New Resource for your pet! PetHealth101-
Your Dog, Cat and Pet Health Resource
Please spay and neuter your pets to prevent unwanted and unplanned litters. Rescue groups are bursting at the seams with unwanted pets....and those are the lucky ones. Did you know that over 7 million pets are put to sleep (KILLED) each year due to overpopulation and animal neglect. Don't blame the shelters, blame those who do NOT spay and neuter.
PLEASE DON''T BREED OR BUY WHEN SHELTER ANIMALS DIE.
Who We Are
OUR MISSION IS TO HELP HOMELESS AND ABANDONED PETS FIND THE WONDERFUL AND FOREVER HOMES THAT THEY SO RICHLY DESERVE
*********************************************************************************************************************************
We are a private organization who believes that every pet deserves a chance at happiness and a warm and loving family. We generally pull dogs from kill shelters when they've reached the end of their time. We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome. While small dogs are our specialty, we rescue many different breeds. Many times, we network with other rescues so that we can save even more animals from a cruel fate.
Far too many animals are dying in our shelters and its our goal to reduce the number of adoptable pets that die needlessly.
Once a dog comes into our rescue, it stays with us until the perfect family is found. It will not go to the first person who expresses an interest. It will go to the best home for that pet.
We do believe that every pet has worth, therefore, there is an adoption fee attached to every pet.
****************************************************************************************************************************************
SAVING JUST ONE PET WON'T CHANGE THE WORLD, BUT SURELY THE WORLD WILL CHANGE FOR THAT ONE PET
Adopting a friend
All Adoption fees go directly to help pay for medical expenses, spaying/neutering, vaccinations,boarding, transportation and food for our rescue animals. Adoption fees generally include the cost of the surgical sterilization as well as vaccinations. Please email for an adoption application. Once the application has been approved, you will be invited to meet the dog and see if this is the perfect match
Come Visit Us!
We are located close to Redding, CA , about 3 hours north of Sacramento and 2 hours south of Oregon.
If you can't adopt right now, please consider a donation of Large size Nylabones, comfy pet beds, collars, leashes or perhaps a bag of quality dog food.

UPDATE FROM SOME NEW GUARDIANS
Dear Family and Friends,
Happy Easter! As some of you may already know, Andrew and I adopted a new family member on Good Friday! Her name is (Princess) Miya, and she is a CUTIE!
I would like to start off by saying that at nearly the same time and day we adopted Miya, was the same time on Good Friday last year that Missy had her first seizure, due to her failing heart. We enjoyed Missy to the very end, and said goodbye to her December 26, 2006. She will forever be in our hearts.
This has been a special weekend for us with Miya, and we know that she will be a blessing in our lives. Despite the fact that when we first met her, she had just been spayed and was quite out of it for day #1, we fell in love with her immediately. Miya is a rescue dog, the same as Missy was.
A couple weeks ago, I started to think it was time to get another dog, but was still very skeptical that it may be too soon. After all, we have Kailey’s little puppy toy poodle part-time, as Kailey is very busy and comes and goes. But when Kailey and Leo would leave together, my heart ached. It was time for my own full-time child and dog!
I was browsing online one day and came across "Pet’s Without Partners". I saw a little Pom. mix (Fergie), who had one eye, and my heart went out to this little girl. I called Laura Rathe who handles the local Pet’s without Partners, and we scheduled a time for Andrew and I to go to her home to meet Fergie. As it turned out, Fergie would not be a good match because she would end up losing her 2nd eye. Kailey’s dog is quite playful, and that would not be fair to a special needs dog.
Laura was very receptive to our needs and wants: female, small dog, and she and her husband Wayne were just getting ready to take another trip to a shelter down south. Without going into too much detail, I will say this: These are very special people who do very special deeds! Their mission is to go to high kill shelters and rescue animals, mend and heal these animals as needed and find wonderful homes for these creatures. It is a labor of love, and one that I admire so much. Thank you Laura and Wayne for what you do…
A few nights ago Laura called to let us know they were back with some new dogs from a shelter in Merced. As we talked, she indicated they brought back a female Chihuahua. She emailed me 2 pics, and I fell in love at first sight, so did Andrew. So now we have Miya! A new chapter of life for all of us!
Miya has settled with us and in our home already after 2 ½ days. She is about 1 to 2 years old. Miya weighs all of 4 ½ lbs and is about 7" tall at her shoulders. She is about 12" long. Her little paws are just a little larger than my thumbnails. She is tiny little gem! She is very sweet and smart. She is not timid or nervous at all. She has great manners, and obeys. I am so surprised as to how well she has adapted. I feel like we have had her for years. I can easily assume she was not abused at all. How she came into a shelter is beyond me . But whatever the reason, she is now our gift, and we will treasure her the way we did Missy.
The pics below are the best ones out of a million I have already taken. I feel like a new mom with a new baby!
Thank you all for letting us share Miya with you. Rescue dogs can be great pets and family members. Please support your local shelters and rescue facilities. Without these kind and generous people who handle unwanted pets, so many animals would be wasted for no reason. Unfortunately, a lot of these animals are wasted, anyway.
By the way, Fergie, the one-eyed, soon-to-be blind dog, did get adopted!!

Hi Laura,
We're back home in Washington after 2+ weeks visiting
relatives in San
Diego, and I now have some time to give you news about
Molly and Sasha.
First, they are WONDERFUL (!!) little girls. We just
adore them. They
get along very well with people and other dogs. They
like to be
"uppity" when they meet new dogs (especially new Big
dogs) while on a
leash, but they get over it quickly and begin to play
right away. We
put them into a lot of new environments over the past
few weeks, and
they behaved admirably: kid's birthday parties, lots
of new dogs, etc.
Since our last dog was also named Molly ("Saint
Molly"), "little Molly"
has become Bindi, or Hindi for "Spot". She's
definitely the spark plug
of this crew, and at first glance appears to be the
leader as well, but
her partner seems to end up with the chew-toy more
than her fair share.
Sasha is now known as "Natasha Nagakali", aka "Tasha",
"Little
Partner", or simply "Partner". She has a tongue as
quick as a cobra
and isn't afraid to use it.
They have a lot of energy, and they play all the time.
We made a little bed for them to sleep in the back
seat of our truck
between the boys,
Thanks again for your work and for giving us the
opportunity to bring
these terrific little buddies into our lives.
