| I founded B.A.R.K. in 1991 while I was between careers and doing volunteer work with Corgi Rescue. Most of my time was spent in one of the large LA County animal shelters, not a pleasant or hopeful place. After a very short time I realized the dire situation of the pet population in Los Angeles. That was when I formed B.A.R.K., became a non-profit, and really started rescuing big time! The city and county of Los Angeles each have five overflowing shelters, full of abandoned and unwanted cats and dogs....animals who used to be someone's pets. Most are sweet, and sadly, most are euthanized. |

| The Dog Rescue Network is a grassroots organization of one person. Located approximately 2 hours north of Santa Barbara, and 3 hours south of San Francisco. I am an ordinary person who volunteers my time, home, and resources, to rescue and foster dogs in need. All of the animals are cared for until an appropriate, loving, permanent home can be found for them. I work as an independent rescuer, and in conjunction with other rescue groups, individuals, and county facilities. I receive no funding except for adoption fees. The following story is the reason I do this. It is an example of what these animals will give to us. We just need to open our eyes and hearts enough to recognize it |

| In 1952, a small group of Redding people realized that the humane care of lost, homeless and abused animals would never come to pass if left solely to the public resources of city and county agencies. Competition for public tax dollars and only limited appreciation for the principle of humane animal care at the time forced any possible improvement in the situation to the very bottom of the local government priority list. Even today, some 50 years later, vital animal shelter work is seldom adequately funded through tax revenues. Through careful planning and day-to-day hard work Haven Humane Society has earned community respect and risen to a high service profile recognized throughout Shasta and surrounding counties. |

| We are a group of professionals in Los Angeles who take small dogs who cannot be cared for in the shelter and overlooked by most rescue associations and adopters, due to the high cost of medical care or training/modification these "special needs" dogs would require to make them a candidate for adoption. Some are simply older; some have behavior issues. Many need surgeries or extensive medical care and rehabilitation. Some will require life long care of some form. Ultimately, without a helping hand, these Special Needs dogs will end up being euthanized. Our philosophy is simple... for some dogs,it takes a village. From rescue through care, rehabilitation, training, fostering and finally re-homing, our group pools its efforts and resources to provide exemplary care and attention to each 'special needs' rescue. |
