Mission Statement
Small Paws has rescued over 10,000 Bichons in the past 16 years from across the country. We rescue Bichons from shelters, and from owners who can no longer take care of them due to a variety of circumstances. (moving, having babies, going to a nursing home, health problems, or other end of life issues, etc.)
About This Cause
Small Paws® Rescue is a 501C3 Not-for-profit Nationwide organization and our name is federally protected by Trade Mark. We have an actively involved Board of Trustees. Small Paws® Rescue pays all vet bills for all of our foster Bichons. To date we have rescued over 10,000 Bichons in the 16 years that we have been operating. Small Paws® Rescue is the largest breed rescue in the country at this time. We have over 6000 members and over 800 volunteers. We pay between $25,000.00 and $50,000.00 per month in vet bills and we post these vet bills publicly Small Paws® Rescue believes it is better to fly a Bichon to a new forever home on a commercial airplane, and to open up a foster home than to let one die in a shelter or in a puppy mill, because we don't have a place for that one. mall Paws® Rescue believes in doing whatever it takes to save a Bichon, even if it is an extraordinary surgery or treatment. We have completed 77 Heart Murmur repairs. Small Paws® Rescue actively seeks media attention to bring the plight of these Bichons to the public is to begin to address the problem of puppy mills, and to recruit additional, much needed foster homes and volunteers. With Small Paws® Rescue, many Bichons, usually 50-100 are in various stages of quarantines from the puppy mills, heartworm treatments and surgeries, and are not yet listed on our Petfinder's Page. Some are in permanent hospice care where loving volunteers care for them...until God takes over. We have an Airline Transportation Department, under the direction of Denise Santos at Bernise26@aol.com. This group of people make reservations for each of the Small Paws® Rescue Bichons to fly to their forever home. We have flown over 5000 Bichons without incident. We believe it is the safest and most economical way to transport! We have experienced and professional Team Leaders, who oversee the rescued Bichons and the volunteers in their areas
