Why adopt a rescue dog?
Why adopt a rescue dog?
Because when you adopt a rescue your saving the life of a dog that was failed by their humans.
They are just lost souls that were given up or abandoned by the person they trusted the most. Unfortunately there are not enough homes for all the dogs that are abandoned everyday, but when you adopt just one rescue dog you not only make a difference in that dogs life but room for one more dogs life to be saved. Rescue dosen't mean damaged, it means they were let down by the family they love

We would like to sincerely thank the Kelly & Mark Show for giving us the wonderful opportunity to showcase our rescue dogs on their program.
A special thank you goes to producer Dana for always providing us with such a warm and positive interview experience.
Your kindness and support mean so much to us and to the dogs who are looking for their forever homes.
OUR RECENT SUCCESS STORY
Aries came into our rescue almost a year ago. He was surrendered to our Veterinarian Hospital in Summit NJ He had an altercation with another dog and was not allowed back in their town and they told the owner they should euthanize him. We couldn't let that happen. So we took Aries into our rescue and with the help of our dog trainer Gustavo Elcure who we call our dog whisper, he was rehabilitated and transformed into the amazing dog he is today. Thanks to Gus's help and the help of Sedona Shepherd Sanctuary we were able to find him the best home he could ever ask for. Sometimes its worth the wait and sometimes dogs make mistakes, but that doesn't mean we should give up on them. Today 9/2/23 Aries has found a place to stay.
