The sign in the yard read “Doggie Heaven.” The heavy scent of urine and constant barking said “Please, help us.” And we did. Choking back tears, hearts breaking and at times gasping for air, we strived to make a difference. Among 25 plus dogs and cats living in horrid, unhealthy conditions, every bark only meant…
Paws up to Summer, the shepherd who forgot it was winter and went for walk. She has been reunited, and is safe and at home. As well as to Buffy, the Lab, who just stepped out briefly.
I want to run and play and run and play, any day, all the time. Missy, our one-year-old Aussie mix and Reily, our 3-year-old female shepherd mix can be found with their toy in mouth and energy to spare to do just that. But what if our four-legged best fur friends decide to escape their…
Four paws up for Emma, our Aussie mix. Her smile says it all, as she enjoys her forever home and her new pack. Paws up to the human angel too for saving her. Lucky was tied to a post, matted beyond belief, with some kibbles thrown on the ground. He is a young male dachsund,…
After spending several days lost and out in the cold, Nala, the pittie puppy, has been reunited with his very worried owners.

Our eyes are smiling for Annie, the Chihuahua mix, and Twiggy, our declawed, gray tabby. Both have finally found their forever homes with the best pack ever. We’ll miss you both.
Pay attention in class and what do you get? Adopted! Just ask Buster Brown, our adorable boxer-mix puppy. Clicker training was easy. Add to that a few wags and puppy kisses and off he went to his forever loving home. Tears of joy, Buster! Paws up to Herk, the golden Lab for showing us how…
Polly, our polydactyl has finally found her forever home. All six toes up to you Polly. And Boo, the Chiweenie didn’t take long to wiggle his way into the heart and arms of his new human.
It’s puppy love! Wrap your heart around this bundle of fur that was rescued from the streets of Idyllwild. Buster Brown is a 16-week-young boxer/pit mix. Along with puppy kisses upon request, this smart boy is already in clicker training class. His first report card is A+, as the basic commands were a piece of cake for him. He is learning leash rules, and is great with all other four-leggeds, cats and dogs.
