Welcome to DFW's FurGotten Friends! DFW's FurGotten Friends provides a safe haven for stray and abandoned dogs while we search for their new furever homes. We take care of all health issues, have all shots done spay/neuter and supply love and socialization for the ones who can't speak for themselves. Through the efforts of a few we strive to save many. All this is done with the help of volunteers and donations from the people who care about the dogs the world has turned its back on.

FurKid Rescue seeks to help animals go from life-threatening situations to homes where they will be given the love and care they deserve. Upon rescue, we commit to the full care and training of an animal until we are able to place them in an exceptional home. We hope that through training and responsible ownership we are able to educate people about rescue dogs as a whole. We are passionate about spaying and neutering and promote the procedure at every opportunity, not only as a preventative health measure, but also to eliminate the overpopulation problem.

Our mission is to provide immediate safety and care to stray, abused and abandoned animals. Once we are assured animals are medically sound, we place them in a secure, temporary, no-kill environment. This immediate placement provides all the love and comfort necessary for their well being and allows us to get to know them. Then, we look for "forever" homes that are committed to their health and happiness for the duration of their lives. When we match an animal with a caring person or family, Buddy is truly fulfilling our purpose of lighting the way home

The mission of AAI is to build hope and empower communities afflicted by armed conflict and severe poverty. We believe that peace, security and respect for human dignity are inseparable. Our goal is to develop programs as sustainable models that can be replicated globally. Our people-to-people initiatives integrate health, education, arts and livelihood as a basis for mediation.

Our Mission Statement is to significantly impact animal overpopulation through aggressive programs focusing on rescue, spay and neuter, adoptions, and education.  We do not believe euthanasia is the answer to population control.  All animals are equally important regardless of their health, age, temperament, appearance, or degree of socialization.  Overpopulation significantly contributes to animal abuse, neglect, disease, suffering and is the primary cause of euthanasia programs.  The best approach to overpopulation is spay and neuter, and educating the public as to the benefits of spay and neuter.

Basset Hound Rescue of Southern California’s Mission is rescue of Basset Hounds at risk of euthanasia or homelessness. Our organization rescued it’s first Basset in August of 1996. We received our non-profit status in January of 1998. As an all volunteer organization, funds raised are due to the herculean efforts of the BHRSC volunteer network. Over 95% of the funding generously donated to BHRSC is used for providing health care or boarding of homeless hounds. BHRSC is a virtual organization with no offices or facilities. The cost of rescuing and re-homing a hound. The intake of homeless and abandoned hounds has dramatically escalated as the economy has faltered. Most hounds are rescued from euthanizing shelters. BHRSC also accepts dogs surrendered by their owners. Dogs which for a variety of reasons, are no longer able to be cared for by their families. All dogs are seen by a vet on intake for a health status check. All vets routinely providing care to BHRSC hounds offer highly discounted services. Our rescue efforts include required medical care and housing of hounds while awaiting placement with permanent adoptive families.BHRSC Rescue profile. Our typical rescue profile is an older hound, usually a senior, in need of basic medical care, including vaccinations and a routine vet check to determine health issues. All too often, dental care is required due to years of limited or no dental care. BHRSC also rescues hounds with acute medical needs that are surrendered by their families or placed in shelters due to the cost of the hound’s health care. Once the hound’s immediate medical need is met, any needed vaccinations and basic care or surgery is provided by veterinarians. Once the hound is deemed healthy, the hound’s photos, a video and their profile are posted on BHRSC’s web site indicating they are available for adoption. When feasible, a dog is placed in a foster home while waiting for permanent placement. Our foster network, while growing, is unable to keep pace with the demand of homeless dogs, forcing hounds into boarding facilities. Boarding facilities, although discounted to BHRSC, are costly. They are safe but not an optimal environment for a dog that has just experienced the stress of losing their home, their family and in a number of cases suffered an injury or an illness and attempting to recuperate. Occasionally BHRSC takes ownership of a dog that is terminally ill or determined by a vet to have a very poor prognosis. If the difficult decision of euthanizing the dog is made, BHRSC covers the costs and makes every attempt to provide the hound with a special last meal. A hamburger or chicken dinner has been the last meal had by a terminally ill hound lovingly provided by a BHRSC volunteer. The volunteer also makes every attempt to stay with the hound until the dog departs this life.
