Rescue FAQs

Kenway's Cause supports adoptive families and rescue organizations should a dog adopted from the shelter have pre-existing medical conditions or even behavior issues. Our goal is to provide relief to help with treatment and/or rehabilitation. And last but certainly not least, Kenway’s Cause donations allow us to provide medical care for dogs that need immediate treatment while in the shelter or would otherwise be euthanized. We have paid for emergency surgeries, x-rays, ultrasounds, various tests and different forms of treatment. The City does not pay for the immediate medical attention and treatment many of these dogs require so the only option prior to the existence of Kenway’s Cause was to euthanize them
