"You can't buy love, but you can adopt it!"
Luckydog Sanctuary is San Diego's premiere holistic pet rescue and sanctuary. At Luckydog, we use proper nutrition and gentle remedies to help pets achieve balance. Our specialty is lifetime care and support of pets who require special care, training, and protection. Our many pets need your support desperately. If you can volunteer time, talent or treasure, we need it and very much appreciate it.

If you wish to adopt a single kitten, please note this. Kittens who have no other kittens to grow up with can be too rough as they grow larger and don't realize their increasing strength. Humans can communicate with cats, but fall short of what other cats can teach. Single kitten syndrome is a major factor in cats being given up to shelters so please do your part in preventing this by refusing to adopt a single kitten under 12 wks of age.
Prior to applying for a pet from any rescue, Please watch The Truth About Pet Cancer (linked below) to learn about common products linked to cancer. No doumentary is perfectly unbiased, so please ignore the unsubstantiated, biased claims and those based on single events. Please pay close attention to the parts backed by convincing evidence.
Please also note that Luckydog is generally against the use of essential oils in homes with pets. Many vets recommend them because they have some beneficial effects in some pets but nobody has propertly studied the long-term effects of exposure to these oils. Even undetectable vapors from EOs can be deadly. A pet owner may not realize a pet's been exposed and that pet may go on to be diagnosed with non-specific liver or kidney disease, for example, or seizures. The problem may never be linked to the EOs in the home. I'm yet to see a veterinary laboratory order form that offers a test for EO toxicity. The only way we find out a pet's been injured by EO's is usually when they've been acutely poisoned (exposed to large amounts in a short period of time) and get extremely ill. We recommend avoiding most fragrances and EO's in a home with pets.
Luckydog is big on promoting natural, holistic, and integrative health-optimization-protocols and wil like to help you keep your pet healthy after adoption (or while being fostered). Our experts scrutinize information gathered from thousands of medical journal entries and hundreds of experts rather than simply regurgitating the opinions of a single expert or community.
What Luckydog does isn't easy but we hope that it makes pet care easy for our followers. Luckydog's goal is to ensure you have no regrets on the day that you say "goodbye" to your furkid and that that day doesn't come any sooner than it has to. With that in mind, please enjoy this video series then come to our website (a work in progress) for more information. LJK9.com is our website.
