Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Providing a progressive environment for animals through rehabilitation, education, and community outreach and filling the critical gap between shelter and permanent rescue.
-
Canine Behavior Program - Our canine behavior team works with dogs in rescue organizations each year to address behavioral challenges such as fear, anxiety, and aggression. Through individualized training and behavior modification plans, we increase dogs adoptability and improve their overall quality of life. We also support dog owners directly, providing behavioral resources that help prevent surrenders and strengthen the human-animal bond. In 2024, we met with 194 people and their dogs. We also provide a free educational video library, accessible through our website, with critical behavior resources that were accessed by over 700 people in 2024. This program is designed to decrease the number of animals being returned or surrendered to shelters and to improve the quality of life for both humans and the dogs.
Expenses $75,365
-
Puppy Palace Program Each year, this program provides safe, structured, and nurturing environments for approximately 250 puppies. Puppies receive essential care, vaccines, spay/neuter surgeries, socialization, and early behavioral training to prepare them for adoption into permanent homes. By reducing stress during critical developmental stages and focusing on preventive practices, we support long-term welfare outcomes and help ensure successful placements. In 2024, we refined care and medical protocols to further safeguard each puppys health and well-being and grew the volunteer program to provide care for the puppies.
Expenses $126,439
-
Animal Sanctuary Our sanctuary provides a lifelong home for animals, including pigs, goats, and chickens. We accept residents on a carefully considered, case-by-case basis, prioritizing animals whose owners can no longer provide care or who come from regional shelters. In 2024, the sanctuary provided permanent refuge for 16 pigs, 3 goats, and numerous chickens, ensuring each animal lives in a safe and compassionate environment.
Expenses $30,781

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
