Over the years we have had many generous contributions from individuals and groups who have donated funds to help us continue our rescue and rehoming program.

On average a foster dog costs between $200 and $400.00. Some have cost as much as $2000.00, and some have cost us very little. But every veterinary visit, vaccine, neuter surgery and microchip costs money, and that money adds up. Your contributions really help offset those costs.

SKYE had a jaw deformity and his bottom teeth were forcing their way into his upper palate every time he closed his mouth. $1200.00 later, SKYE had newly filed and capped teeth at Animal Critical Care.

JOJO had severe CHD and required surgery, and post op therapy in a canine Aqua Pool. Thanks to your donations, and the generosity of the veterinarians involved, JoJo's $1000.00 costs were largely covered.

Thanks to Susan and Garry brace for their wonderful donation! They write: To help with your work in rescuing Australian Shepherds in BC as well as Border Collies, we have donated $100 (via paypal) in memory of our Aussie, Woody, who succumbed to cancer last week. He was almost 12 years old, and was diagnosed with lymphoma over 2 years ago, but with veterinary help lived comfortably right to the end. Please use this donation as best you see fit.
