The past two years have been extremely difficult for those working in the nonprofit sector due to Covid. We have sadly seen rescues across the country have to take in less dogs due to lack of funds, resources, volunteers and staff. Some have been forced to shut their doors permanently. Lay offs, the massive influx of animals being dumped at shelters and the compassion fatigue and exhaustion felt by those in this never ending battle to save lives has had devastating effects on the dogs.

One year ago, Eli was out of time at the Devore Shelter. He had no interest and would have died there had we not pulled him. SUFP sponsored his care which included a TPLO surgery. Today Eli is living his very best life with his forever family and we could not be happier for him. His mom sent us these videos and photos a couple of days ago. Thanks to everyone who shared Eli, made contributions for his care and for loving him. He’s now getting to live the beautiful life he deserves. NEVER EVER BUY DOGS. ADOPT. #standupforpits #Eliwins

Please educate everyone you know about this. It’s horrific how many dogs die every year because human beings leave them out in the cold. If you see someone doing this REPORT IT. Try to educate the owners and/or provide supplies for the dog. A house, hay, blankets, sweaters….anything to help save that life. #betheirvoice #takeaction #endabuse

Gracie, Crewella, Louie and DeCoco are the last 4 hippos to get spayed and and neutered this year through our national Spay & Neuter ANGEL DAY initiative!!! As we prepare now for ANGEL DAY 2022, we want to thank those of you who support this life saving and desperately needed effort. Spaying and neutering is one real solution to lowering shelter intake and murder numbers. If you’re someone who is gutted by the site of beautiful innocent souls languishing and dying in shelters, start supporting spay & neuter efforts however and whenever you can. Make it a priority.
