Mission Statement
We are a small group located in NW Alabama in Winston County. Our county has no animal shelter and there are no laws in Alabama to protect the many innocent animals who are dumped out on the sides of the roads on a daily basis. Dumping dogs is a way of life here in Alabama and we are trying to change that and bring awareness to the cruelty that exists in today's world. We are slowly changing the way some folks view their pets by saving one dog at a time.
About This Cause
We are a small non-profit 501 (c)3 dog rescue in Winston County, Alabama. We live in a rural, low income area. We have no shelter and no support from the elected officials. We house the dogs at our homes and volunteer foster homes. Each dog is fully vetted and 100% of their care is given by volunteers. We have two vets who work with us and give discounted prices to our dogs. Once the dogs are healthy and able to travel, we send them to large out of state rescues where they are adopted in to loving homes. We have a partnership with Spots Last Stop Rescue located in Prior Lake, MN and 98% of our dogs are sent there. We are able to keep up with our Alabama dogs in their foster homes through this partnership. We do not adopt any of our rescues in this area. We hold fundraisers constantly and survive on donations to pay our vetting costs each month. We provide total vet care to the dogs we rescue, no matter the condition. We have a 5 member Board of Directors who make decisions and brings ideas before the group. We keep a database of each dog we rescue with all the information pertaining to the dog as well as a paper copy of all medical/vet records. Our group consists of approximately 25 members and we average rescuing 75-100 dogs per month. We are 100% volunteer and all donations go toward our rescue efforts. We have a Treasurer who maintains our records and receipts for viewing.
