Every one of our dogs is loved, but love doesn't pay the bills!

Sponsorship of a dog requires a $20 donation. More than one person may sponsor the same dog. Your donation will help feed, shelter and provide medical attention to the dog you decide to sponsor.

We would like thank you for your sponsorship by placing your name on our web site next to the picture of the dog you are sponsoring.

Sponsorship is easy:

Make your $20 credit card donation securely through PayPal to this rescue (click on the Donate button below with the Visa/Mastercard on it) and make sure to tell us the name of the dog you wish to sponsor! If you want to remain anonymous, you can put that in the box next to the name of the dog you will be sponsoring.

If you would like to sponsor one of our dogs, with a $20 or more donation, In Honor of... or In Memory of..., please tell us this in the notes section of paypal or send us an addition e-mail at letting us know that you have just used PayPal to sponsor a dog and would like:
