Angel Fund donations offset our costs of caring for:
Journey is one of our long term fosters. She came to us through a rescue when her owner was admitted to the hospital. She stayed with us after it was determined that her owner needed long term care and could no longer keep her.
She is about six years old and we recently had her spayed. She weighed a whopping 124 lbs when she came to us, but we’ve gradually brought her weight to a much more healthy 89 lbs.
She is a super sweet girl and adores people, but she has little to no experience around other dogs or cats.
Journey recently started having severe issues with her back end, which became progressively worse. Our staff gave her so much love and care to keep her happy and supported, but when she lost 90% use of her back legs, we made the difficult decision to let her cross the rainbow bridge.
Dr. Tia Perry came to us for Journey’s passing on January 1st. The majority of our kennel team (and even a former employee) came to shower her with love and be with her as she passed. But an amazing thing happened! Upon examination, Dr. Perry felt certain that this was not a disc issue, rather it was FCE (Fibrocartilaginous Embolism), which has a very positive chance for recovery with physical rehab and acupuncture.
Over the next several months our team worked tirelessly on rehabilitation exercises under the guidance of Dr. Perry.
Journey has recovered almost all the use of her back end and is now ready for adoption.
Your financial support and donations have made this possible!
Bonnie came to us through a domestic violence women’s shelter when her owner could no longer care for her. She had chronic skin issues, was not spayed and had several mass tumors.
After surgeries, spay and extensive treatment through a veterinary dermatologist, she was ready for adoption.
A local rescue took Dino into their network but they could not house him because his is very intense, very strong, and can scale a 6′ fence with ease! After one failed attempt at adopting Dino out, it was determined that he is just too difficult of a placement to be able to do so safely.
So Dino is now a permanent resident here at the kennel and will live out the remainder of his days receiving loving care from our staff. One of Dino’s favorite activities is weight-pull, which lets him burn off some energy in a healthy way. In addition to weight-pull, he also loves structured walks and play-time where staff engage with him in a safe and constructive manner.
Dino is a senior pet who is approximately 12 years old with special dietary needs due to his sensitive skin and stomach. On a daily basis, he takes Cosequin for his joints, fish oil for his skin, Fortiflora tablets for his digestive issues, and he eats a limited ingredient food containing salmon and brown rice. We are committed to helping Dino have a great life no matter how many days he has left with us.

Buck is another dog who lives with us permanently. He came to us through a local animal shelter many years ago.
Buck is a sweet and lovable guy with an unfortunate, but serious, bite history. He absolutely loves those who he has deemed “his people,” but he is a danger to those he does not know. After significant training, we determined that adopting him out was just not safe or responsible. He is comfortable at the kennel and gets a lot of attention and activity.
We have a very specific approval process to make sure staff are safely acclimated to Buck. This “Buck Approval” can take up to six months, and has multiple stages.
Some of Buck’s favorite activities include playing tug and fetch in the yard and chasing around the Jolly Ball. Due to his bite record, Buck must wear a muzzle anytime he is outside our fences, even when going on nature walks on the property. While he’s not necessarily dog aggressive, he only enjoys the company of a very select few dogs. Former Angel Fund dogs Bonnie and Molly were his neighbors and closest friends at the kennel, but both have passed away.
Buck is an older guy as well, somewhere in the neighborhood of 12 years old. He takes Cosequin for his joints and requires a poultry-free diet due to his chicken allergy. Buck dines on a beef and rice formula and enjoys our allergy-free salmon tuck-in treats.
