Helping Animals in Need:
The world today is very complicated. In some regards we are making great progress for animals rights and welfare. Animals are becoming more accepted everywhere as companions, and there are many special services now catering to the needs of our lifelong friends. However, in many instances our companions are still considered temporary novalties, even disposable, and often find themselves in need of assistance. We are dedicated to helping animals in any way we can.
Dogwood Rescue - www.petfinder.com/shelters/BC167.html
DOGWOOD RESCUE is a non-profit "specifc breed" resscue group who rescues "sporting" or "gun" dogs. A small network of dedicated volunteers, some of whom have been quietly re-homing animals for over 30 years. we care passionately about animal welfare, The animals we help are:
~ abandoned because of cruelty, neglect or hardship;
~ strays, slated for extermination in over-crowded shelters;
~ dumped, after years of faithful companionship simply because they are old;
~ discarded for flimsy excuses such as "no time" for the animal;
~ dispensed with by relatives who don't want them or can't keep them due to the owner's illness or death. Note; If you love your pet, remember to put him/her in your will. Do not expect your heirs to take care of the animal.
Sometimes, changes in family dynamics such as marriage, divorce, moving, illness, or pregnancy may warrant re-homing, but owners should explore all viable options before giving up a pet. Animals are not disposable toys to be thrown aside when inconvenient; they deserve the same care and consideration as human children. If you would like to help save a homeless dog, consider fostering. If you are unable to make a long term commitment to an animal, we always need emergency and short term fostering (three days to a month) prior to a pet being placed in a permanent home.
