Pets with Disabilities is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the adoption of dogs and cats with disabilities. The organization serves as a rescue and an adoption placement aid for animals that have been injured through trauma or disabled by illness. Pets with Disabilities provides invaluable support and resources for the families of disabled pets and for shelters attempting to place special-needs animals into loving homes. For the animals it helps, Pets With Disabilities is a bridge to a better life; for the few that we cannot place, Pets With Disabilities is a lifelong home. |

MISTY
(1995-2008)
This past year Pets with Disabilities lost Misty, one of the founding dogs of our mission. Misty, an awesome pup with a inspirational spirit, sat in a shelter outside New York City for over five years. Nobody wanted to adopt Misty because her little body was broken. Mike and I learned about Misty, and immediately went to NY and adopted her. Misty became an icon. She allowed pets and kisses from thousands of folks who met her at different events we attended year after year. She was surely loved by us and will be missed by many. |

Pets with Disabilities has established the Misty Fund. The sole purpose of the Misty Fund is to rescue small wheelchair dogs and "small dogs with back leg problems" and to seek out extraordinary people to help dogs like Misty find their way to a better life. This is surely a great way to honor Misty's life Click here to see the dogs benefiting from the Misty Fund and how to contribute |
