Mission and programs · 2023

• Veterinary Services: FUR provides all veterinary services necessary to ensure the dog or cat is healthy when they are adopted. We pay for spay/neuter, vaccinations, and microchips. We also pay 100% of the heartworm treatment costs for heartworm positive dogs, and we pay for numerous specialty surgeries and procedures for sick and injured animals. We also rescue senior dogs with special challenges. Veterinary expenses are our single biggest epense, but this investment allows us to save lives of urgent dogs or cats who otherwise wouldnt have a chance.

  Expenses $131,916

• FUR Urgent Transport Program helps rescue animals in emergencies, including 14 hurricanes and natural disasters. We completed multiple rescue missions on the ground in Ukraine; in Antakya, Turkey after the devastating earthquake; in the Bahamas after Hurricane Dorian; and in Kentucky after the deadly tornado. In every emergency, we help animals and people. Many big shelters get help from large national organizations, but small rural shelters are often overlooked and forgotten. FUR coordinates the logistics, arranges vet care, and manages the transport for smaller shelters. FUR also conducts non-emergency transports to partners in shelters where there is greater demand and lower supply, thus relocating animals to shelters and rescues where they can be safely adopted.

  Expenses $114,729

• Foster & Adoption Program: FUR pulls dogs and cats from kill shelters and other urgent situations and places the animals in foster homes to give them a chance to decompress, get them veterinary care, and prepare them for adoption. We typically have 50-60 animals in foster homes at any one time. While in foster care, FUR pays for all veterinary expenses, as well as other incidental expenses as required. We purchase food, collars, leashes, crates, and other items needed to assist the foster families to care for their foster animal. We also purchase flea and heartworm prevention for the duration of their stay in the foster home. Because the animals are living with a foster family, we know a lot more about their temperament and personality, and we can use this information to help find a perfect match with the adopter. Part

  Expenses $107,252

• Shelter and rescue assist: FUR provides shelter for rescued animals. FUR helps assit rescues of animals.

  Expenses $3,997

• Save Our Strays: FUR introduced this program in 2017 as a new intake diversion program to rescue stray dogs and cats, get them vet care and move them into foster homes. We were already assisting other rescues and private individuals in trapping or recovering stray dogs. FUR has trapped many long term strays. Animal Control Officers dont have the time to dedicate to trapping difficult to locate animals. Our rescues run from a few hours to several months.
