Rescue FAQs

501c3 non-profit l est 2019 l We have been fostering dogs since early 2019 through various rescues. What better way to showcase them then in a playful, happy, loving environment with other loving dogs in our community. ​ Recently we have started changing things as we are looking for our pups to go into foster homes/foster to adopt.  We typically fly dogs in from over capacity shelters in Texas, drive puppers over from Yakima, and still have an amazing relationship with a partnering rescue in Mexico. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
