Check out her heart warming rescue video:

❤️Little Lady Frankie was found living in a box in down town LA.  She must have been hit by a car.  We picked her up and rushed her to the vet with the help of peanut butter.  The x-rays show a broken pelvis, broken back ankle, broken front elbow.  She now needs an Emergency Orthopedic Specialist $$$$$.  She must have been in excruciating pain living on the streets with all those broken bones, for so long with no one caring about her.  Even with all that, little Lady Frankie is gentle, kind and full of kisses. She is now safe in our foster home recovering.  We have a long road ahead of us but we can do it.  This is what we do. 
​I look forward to the day she will run again

​You can be her HERO!  Thank you from Lady Frankie ❤️

This little girl came to me with her 3 brothers and sisters.  They were found on the side of the road all huddled together, because it has been raining a lot in California.  They were starving.  When I first put food down that they started to fight, when I reached in these tiny 5 week old babies were so hungry they bit my hands bloody.  So I spread the soft food all over the floor.  Poor babies were so neglected.  Little Lily's eye must have gotten scratched and infected.  The vet had me keep ointment on that eye.  And then one day I saw her lens pop off.  She will be gong into surgery soon.  If you would like to help with her emergency eye surgery and be her HERO     Please Donate

We work tirelessly to rescue animals from suffering on the streets or in our high kill shelters.  We provide life-saving medical care and give them a safe loving foster home to heal and learn to trust again until we can find them a forever home.

This Mama was found in a field with her pups by Hope For Paws and START rescue.  They brought the pups The Dog Rescuers foster home.  When it was time for adoption I arranged it so this lovely family can stay in touch.  
​See the happy family reunion videos below.  
This is a perfect example of when pit bulls are raised in loving homes - how you can have 6 adult huge pit bulls in one yard just playing and kissing each other.   

This little terrified chihuahua was found under a storage container with a broken leg by Hope For Paws.  They brought her to The Dog Rescuers foster home for some much need recovery.  Check out her video below

This pregnant Mama was found on the streets of South Central LA by a good samaritan who took her in.  Mama was so emaciated, one of the pups died in her birth canal and we almost lost mama.

From death row 
to bringing smiles to children in hospitals

Shelter dogs are lives worth saving.

Our Charity works with animals 
and children in need.  
We bring love and cheer to children in hospitals, encourage children to read and we speak at schools to teach the children the importance of spaying & neutering, and the proper care and respect for all animals.  The key is, that this positive experience the children will take this information back home and share it with their families and communities. 

Here are a few photos of Zoe at work

These pups were dumped off at a High Kill Shelter without their Mama by an irresponsible Breeder when they were
​only days old.  The Shelter would be forced to euthanize them if they could find a foster to bottle feed every 2 hours

40 dogs rescued from L.A.'s high kill shelter transported to Oregon's no kill shelter & sanctuary

The van is packed up and ready to go.  A 16 hour drive ahead of us.   I had a sweet little rescue pup along as her co-pilot.  We have working relationships with many Oregon's no kill shelters, rescue groups and sanctuaries that are taking in some of our overcrowded, unwanted L.A. dogs that are scheduled to be put down.  


Picture

We arrived at the Southern Oregon Humane shelter, late into the night.  We hurried to get all the dogs out of the van for a pee break after a 11 hour drive.  Medford, Oregon shelter greeted us with a warm welcome and then jumped in and started getting all the dogs out, 2 at a time.  "It was the most wonderful moment, it felt like Christmas morning.  We were so exhausted and so overjoyed at the same time", Veronica said.  "We made it!  Candace says, "They just know everything is going to be alright.  They just know they are safe".   We still had 3 more hours to drive that night to Eugene for the second rescue drop off.

At this time we have successfully been transporting dogs every month - saving well over 100 lucky dogs.  As great as this is, it is like - trying to drain a sinking ship with a teaspoon. The reason for our over population is the carelessness of not spaying/neutering the family pets.  Our 6 LA high kill shelters and neighboring high kill shelters are putting down 60/80 dogs and cats at each shelter every single day.  The solution is stronger laws /penalties /regulations on S/N requirements, enforcing stronger laws on breeders, backyard breeders, stopping dog fighting breeders, stopping puppy mills altogether, and educating regular people like you and me to simply be more responsible by not having litters at home.  We as a community must hold these people accountable. This can only change by getting involved and voting for stronger laws.  Making sure the people we put in authority enforce those laws.  If you can't afford to S/N your pet, there are many low cost clinics available, or adopt a pet from your local shelter that is already S/N.  It is not fair to have to kill so many loving, sweet, adoptable dogs every day because they are out of site out, of mind and we are not taking responsibility.  It is a proven, simple and low cost solution that works.   


Abandoned on a property for 30 days

Picture
She and her 3 other emaciated siblings were left on a property without food and water.  Her sister and her 8 pups had to be put down the next day because they caught Parvo at the shelter.  I was asked to help, so I took the skinniest home.  This is the worst part of rescuing for me - just awful to walk past the siblings kennels.  How do you leave any of them behind?     
Good news, 
She is happy and healthy and adopted by a Great family who keep in touch and visit often.  
Today they stopped by for a little swim with the other fosters.  
Babe my shepherd and Kima are best friends.
