ABOUT STRAY FROM THE HEART

Stray from the Heart is a non-profit dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and placement of homeless dogs. They provide shelter, veterinary care and loving homes for abandoned, lost, neglected and abused animals. They also provide training and education regarding the protection and care of animals, as well as ongoing support to the individuals and families who adopt from them.

MISSION
Stray from the Heart's mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and find permanent homes for homeless, abused or neglected dogs regardless of where they were born.

VISION
Stray from the Heart takes the World Society for the Protection of Animals' vision to the grass roots level. With the WSPA, they strive to create a world where animal welfare matters and animal cruelty ends.

WHAT THEY DO, AND WHY THEY DO IT
Working directly with domestic and international outreach organizations and centers for Animal Care and Control, they rescue, rehabilitate and find homes for homeless dogs without the benefit of paid employees or a shelter facility to house our dogs. Through their network of foster homes, they strive to offer good dogs, facing uncertain futures due to space and resource constraints, new hope and a better life. They also provide follow-up support to the individuals and families who adopt dogs from them. Stray from the Heart volunteers are always available to provide advice on health and behavioral questions after an adoption. They are here to help potential owners find the perfect canine companion and to help every dog find a perfect forever home. Even so, they have a "no questions asked" policy in cases where a dog must be returned to us. Their main concern is the health and safety of their strays.

WHO THEY ARE
Stray from the Heart is a volunteer-based organization. They are thankful for the dedicated individuals who work tirelessly each day to improve the lives of our Strays, and to insure that their future is blessed with a loving and stable home. They are a member of the New York City Mayor's Alliance for Homeless Animals, collaboration between animal welfare organizations and the City of New York aimed at eradicating euthanasia in our shelters by increasing adoptions.

Financially, they rely on the generosity of our corporate and individual supporters to provide support for our rescue and rehabilitation programs.

HOW'S IT WORKING?
They have had tremendous success in a short time. Since their inception in August 2000, they have been able to rescue and find loving homes for over 1,500 homeless dogs. In addition, they have developed working relationships with international outreach programs, and with local veterinarians who offer essential medical care.

Finally, they are very proud of the international program they have in place. Before founder Toni Bodon implemented this program, many of the rescuers abroad had little or no hope of finding loving and permanent homes for their rescues. With her help, they have been able to reach out, across borders, and share their vision with others who need their help.

THEIR RESCUE AND ADOPTION PROGRAM
They work with their strays until each one finds a loving home. This is what makes Stray from the Heart special. Each dog they rescue requires many hours of care and social rehabilitation. No matter what it takes, they don't give up. They believe that each one wants to trust again, and can become a well-behaved and socialized canine citizen. They take their time. They pride ourselves in their ability to rehabilitate unwanted and neglected dogs, and to pair them up with the right home. They have the patience to wait for that perfect person or family -- where the commitment and attention to long-term companionship and safety is evident.

• Their detailed and comprehensive adoption process is truly the cornerstone of their success.
• They meet each prospective owner, to gauge his and/or her compatibility with their strays.
• They make a home visit, to ensure that the home is prepared and safe for their stray, and that the new parent understands the responsibilities that lie before them.
• They perform follow-up visits to ensure that their strays have indeed found the right place to be.
• They make their staff available to answer questions on health and behavior, make referrals, and offer resources to new parents.

They have seen amazing real life success stories unfold before their eyes: stories of canine survivors who refuse to lose their trust in mankind, no matter what hardships they have endured, stories of people whose lives have been touched and enriched by dogs who were once homeless and desperate for human companionship.

About Rocket Dog Rescue:

Rocket Dog Rescue, the name says it all. They are an all-volunteer nonprofit group dedicated to saving homeless and abandoned animals from euthanasia in overcrowded Bay Area shelters. They literally give them a second chance at life. And everybody deserves a second chance.

Rocket Dog Rescue places non-aggressive dogs into temporary foster homes where they are socialized, spay/neutered, vaccinated, and treated for any medical or behavioral conditions which would otherwise limit their adoptability. They then actively seek out permanent quality homes for these deserving animals through their  volunteer network, online adoption page, weekend adoption fairs, and neighborhood poster campaigns.

Founded in 2001 by Bay Area animal activist Pali Boucher, Rocket Dog Rescue is a 501-C3 nonprofit corporation supported completely by  donations. Their all-volunteer, home-based organization guarantees that your donations are completely focused on saving dogs.

Pali - Founder of Rocket Dog Rescue

Rocket Dog Rescue’s ultimate goal is to help create a world where all companion animals have loving and permanent homes. A world where no good-natured companion animal, no matter what their age, are killed in shelters because they are considered surplus or unadoptable. They also strive to make eco-friendly and vegetarian choices whenever possible.

Make a difference in dog's life! Adopt. Foster. Give. Rock on.

About Military Working Dog Foundation:

The Military Working Dog Foundation is not a government agency, but rather a 501c3 non-profit. They have no funding or say whatsoever in what police department or other law enforcement agency receives a dog for patrol/detection duties, nor do they have any say whatsoever in who receives a dog via the U.S. Military's adoption program.

The Mission of the Military Working Dog Foundation is to assist the Department of Defense Military Working Dog Center in finding suitable homes for military working dogs that become available for adoption because they are no longer capable of performing their military duties.

Because on occasion, dogs are available for distribution to police departments and other law enforcement agencies, the Foundation's mission is also to help this process involving law enforcement K-9 units. In most cases, the dogs made available to law enforcement would make excellent working dogs, but due to time restraints, the military is unable to continue training them.

The dogs available for private adoption are not your ordinary house pets. They are anything but ordinary. They have served in protecting our country or have been to military K-9 'boot camp" and are very special animals. Their goal is to aid the MWD Center in finding appropriate homes for the working dogs available for private adoption to the public, former handlers and other persons capable of properly caring for these dogs as well as law enforcement agencies having a special requirement for a trained K-9.

When funds permit they will:

• Provide support and protective gear to those dogs that are placed in law enforcement agencies.
• Provide "comfort supplies" (treats, special gear, hygiene kits, etc.) to military working dogs and their handlers that are deployed in foreign countries.
• Provide the necessary informational support services to those dogs that go to private homes

Please help them find acceptable homes and placement for these great dogs, so they can either retire in the company of a good home or continue working in police K-9 units and other law enforcement agencies.

You can help by spreading the word to people who love dogs and to your local police department. You can also aid by sending a tax-deductible donation to assist in their continued efforts.

About Halo Animal Rescue

HALO (Helping Animals Live On) is a private, 501(c)(3), non-profit organization founded in 1994 by two women, Michel Herstam and Heather Allen, out of their homes in Phoenix, AZ.

HALO provides temporary shelter to abandoned cats and dogs until they can be adopted into a permanent home.

HALO is a limited admission or "no-kill" facility that does not accept animals from the public. HALO, believing that their strategy serves the animals in greatest need, selects animals from the euthanasia lists at "open admission" shelters in Maricopa County, primarily Maricopa County Animal Care and Control.

In 2008, HALO transitioned from a completely foster-based organization to an agency that utilizes both foster homes and a physical adoption center. HALO's adoption center is a 3,000-square-foot building on a 1.75 acre parcel of land located at Camelback and 35^th Avenue in Phoenix, AZ. This location was most-recently a cat adoption facility managed by Maricopa County Animal Care and Control, though it was originally constructed to be a Department of Motor Vehicle office.

Since HALO's inception in 1994, over 20,000 dogs and cats have found a new home, with our adoption numbers growing every year! In 2009 alone, we adopted out 2,584 dogs and cats in to new homes, giving them a second chance at happiness!

Mission

HALO is an acronym that stands for Helping Animals Live On. It is a succinct, four-word definition of what they are here for.  It is the reason each and every employee and volunteer puts two feet on the ground.  It is a passion that goes beyond just loving dogs and cats.  It is a driving force in their lives; to make this community, this world, a safe place for homeless pets. Helping Animals Live On through increased adoption, sterilization and pet care education.

How Can You Support HALO?

HALO depends entirely on private funding from compassionate people who want to help homeless animals. Your contribution big or small is crucial to their life-saving mission. There are so many ways to help!
