Save Our Dogs

Dog rescue in Whiteriver, AZ

We have been feeding stray dogs that come to the church. We have females that give birth at the church. Unknown people steal the puppies from their mothers at night before they are old enough to be weaned. The puppies that are not stolen are being fostered by Rosalie.

There are no animal shelters on the reservation and no tribal resources to help the many homeless dogs.

The heartbreaking reality of the suffering of stray dogs cannot be ignored, their plight is so great. So, in the spirit of St. Francis, we help to care for the strays that come to the church.
