OUR VETERINARY CARE PROGRAM INCURS OUR HIGHEST EXPENSE AND IS AN AREA OF PRIDE FOR THE ORGANIZATION. Our outstanding in-house team consists of a Medical Director and two staff Veterinarians. Together they provide full time care for the dogs five days per week and on weekends as needed. BECAUSE OF THE HORRIFIC CONDITIONS OFTEN SEEN IN THE DOGS WE RESCUE, OUR VETERINARY TEAM MEMBERS ARE EXPERT IN INTRICATE AND EXTENSIVE SURGICAL AND DENTAL PROCEDURES. THEY TAKE IMMACULATE CARE OF OUR DOGS WITH A FOCUS ON PAIN MANAGEMENT AND PREPARING DOGS FOR ADOPTION. EVERY DOG WE TAKE IN IS VACCINATED, HEARTWORM TESTED, SPAYED/NEUTERED, MICROCHIPPED AND DEWORMED. OTHER CONDITIONS DEALT WITH FREQUENTLY INCLUDE: PYOMETRA, INJURED AND INFECTED EYES, EARS SCARRED FROM PROLONGED UNTREATED INFECTIONS, PARASITE INFESTATION, LEG AND FOOT DEFORMITIES, BLINDNESS, DEAFNESS, HERNIAS, MAMMARY TUMORS, OTHER CANCERS, DECAYED AND INFECTED TEETH AND SEVERE GUM DISEASE. WE ALSO WORK WITH SPECIALISTS FOR TREATMENT OF THE MOST SEVERELY ILL AND INJURED DOGS OR THOSE WITH CONDITIONS THAT REQUIRE SPECIALIZED DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AND SURGICAL PROCEDURES.

DAILY CARE AND SHORT- AND LONG-TERM REHABILITATION. OUR RESCUED DOGS ARE EXERCISED, FED, BATHED AND GROOMED AND THE KENNEL IS KEPT EXTRAORDINARILY CLEAN ON A DAILY BASIS. OUR DOGS RECEIVE DAILY ATTENTION AND ENCOURAGEMENT FROM DOZENS OF VOLUNTEERS. EVERY DOG'S PROGRESS IS DOCUMENTED, APPROXIMATELY 80 PERCENT ARE READY TO MOVE ON TO ADOPTIVE HOMES IN UNDER 8-12 WEEKS IN SOME CASES OUR DOGS ARE ADOPTED AS QUICKLY AS 1-2 WEEKS AFTER THEY ARRIVE AT OUR FACILITY. ABOUT 20 PERCENT OF OUR DOGS SUFFER DEEPER PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL ISSUES FROM THEIR YEARS IN BREEDING FACILITIES. NURTURING THEM OFTEN TAKES MANY MONTHS. WE HAVE A STRUCTURED REHABILITATION PROGRAM THAT INCLUDES INITIAL EVALUATION, ASSIGNMENT OF REHABILITATION TEAM MEMBERS TO DOGS IN THE PROGRAM AND INDIVIDUALIZED CARE PLANS THAT INCLUDE REASONABLE GOALS AND DOCUMENTING PROGRESS ON A REGULAR BASIS. ONLY REHABILITATION TEAM MEMBERS HANDLE DOGS IN THE PROGRAM TO ENSURE CONTINUITY OF CARE. SOME DOGS NEED WEEKS BEFORE THEY WILL APPROACH AN OUTSTRETCHED HAND OR PERMIT A GENTLE TOUCH. OUR TEAM PERSISTS, ALLOWING OUR DOGS THE TIME NEEDED TO BECOME COMFORTABLE WITH HUMAN INTERACTION. WE ARE DEEPLY COMMITTED TO THESE DOGS AND OUR EFFORTS ARE FOCUSED ON SUCCESSFULLY REHABILITATING THEM UNTIL THEY ARE READY TO GO TO A LOVING HOME.
