CAPITAL ANIMAL RESCUE AND ENVIRONMENTAL FOUNDATION

Animal rescue in Potomac, MD

We raise funds through animal boarding, dog behavioral training and dog rehabilitation. We treat your pet like ours and give them love when you're away. They have their own vacation wonderful vacation meeting new friends, human and dog alike. We believe dogs are pack animals and are happier when they are with a loving pack. We donate a portion of our proceeds to help like minded non-profit organizations.
