Pets with
Disabilities is excited to
announce our rescue has been nominated as SPCA International, through its Shelter of the Week Program, recognizes animal organizations for the outstanding work they do to save and protect all kinds of animals. As a national animal welfare organization this is a way for us to also applaud the staff and volunteers of these organizations who are on the front lines, devoting their time daily to ensure animals receive the help they deserve through lifesaving programs and services. The Shelter of the Week Program is intended to help community based animal organizations who are working diligently to find solutions to the problems that affect animals. SPCA International recognizes how difficult a job this can be, therefore, we developed the Shelter of the Week Program to provide some much needed and deserved assistance in the form of a $1,000 grant that is given to specific organizations every other week. This money is to be used to expand existing programs and services or develop and implement new ones. |

Meet Kyla Connors, Kyla is a long time friend of mine, that really wanted to help the dogs. She is dedicated and determined to bring dogs around that need that little extra attention. The dogs absolutely adore her and they feel her positive energy and soon as she walks into the barn! We are so lucky to have Kyla on our team. She is not just a good dog person, she is also great with people. |

The MISTY ANNEX is complete!! In the "world" of rescue, an isolation area is critical to the safety of our current "guests" and provides the ability to help others that may be suffering from an injury or a contagious illness. We are so excited about the opening of Pets with Disabilities isolation building. The Misty Annex! It will allow the volunteers to spend some quality time with the sick or injured dogs, while keeping all the other dogs safe. |

Thank you to everyone who donated to make this a reality.... please consider donating to the Misty Fund
Pets with Disabilities would like to thank the Dr Jane HealthyPetNet Foundation, for awarding us a grant to help purchase the building and Hank Barry of HRB Builders www.hrb08builders.com for donating his time and equipment in excavating the land. |
