WE Love Animals!

We Need Animals and They Need US!

 We invite You to join us as we emBARK ON challenging journeys to bring Hope, Life, and Love to the very dire condition of our Animal World. 

Why are Rescues Important?

  As You read this Intro and explore our MISSION, We hope to Inspire You and You discover Answers.

We Love Animals! We know You do too, so We have launched a plan. There are so many heroic rescues, sanctuaries, and animal advocates that are giving their all to save the innocent lives of helpless desperate animals.

These homeless ones would definitely not survive without intervention.  

Animal abuse, neglet, abandonment, and victims of human hardship has reached a staggering all time high

So Shelters are overwhelmed, under financed, under staffed, & way over occupancy.   

California is one of the highest Kill States in the nation.

Reportedly, California Kill Shelters put to Death more than 10,000 Animals monthly.  Many Kill Shelters are said to Not be reporting their Death count and that realistically it's predicted that California's Kill Shelter Death numbers are more accurately estimated at nearly 30,000 Deaths monthly.

   In Southern California there is an Animal Shelter that has recently reached 240% occupancy, an unsustainable situation. 

Due to the lack of funding and being overcapacity, many of these Shelter Animals being Euthanized are young and/or Healthy Animals that have Not Been Adopted.

Animals are in Urgent Need of a Loving Lifeline.  The suffering and cruelty of animals left without options all over our nation is more than heartbreaking, it's inexcusable for a powerful Nation such as ours.

The weight of the need is more than all the Shelters, Rescues, Sanctuaries, and Animal Advocates can resolve. 

These people have the biggest Hearts and have been the Warriors for the Life of these Animals.  Despite all their sacrifice and tireless efforts, with the overwhelming numbers in need of Rescue there's still a great lack of resources and physical help.

So Sadly, it's impossible to save them all.

 We decided that ignoring this problem is not an option.  It's time for us to get seriously involved to help lighten the load.

Every caring person has the power to do Something for Change.  Informing the World of the condition of our Animal Kingdom is the starting place of doing Something.

Please spread the Word!!  CHANGE is going to take us ALL.

Let's start by sounding the Urgency Alarm for these suffering voiceless ones and motivate some much Needed Action.

Thank You so very much for having the Heart to read this.

We appreciate you visiting our site.  Let's escalate the conversation and promote saving the Lives of these Gifts of Love.

The World needs their Love and they need ours.

Now let's begin a LOVE movement and rescue some lives!

 Please continue to check us out.  

We are a 100% volunteer serviced Rescue.

Join us, we are working hard to step up and do Our Something.

MISSION

Ambassadors
 
of Love from Above

heart shaped white pearl with pastel colored hues , no background.jpg

Our Nonprofit is for the purpose of Rescuing Dogs and Animals from abuse, neglect, loneliness, homelessness, and from the overload of Kill shelters.

At the present time our focus primarily, but not exclusively, is to rescue Dogs.  The overload of homeless dogs has extremely escalated resulting in crisis level numbers of deaths by euthanasia and worse.

With the help and counsel of professional medical, behavioral, natural health, and training experts, we are treating the physical, emotional, and behavioral challenges the animals may come into our care with.

To enrich their lives and unlock their potential, we assess each animal to determine the animals' unique talents, motivators, triggers, behaviors, and personalities to discover what will make them most happy and secure.

Individualized training programs are developed as a personalized path for the animal's success.

The goal of our nonprofit is to pair happy trained animals with individuals, families, or  handlers.  Our hope is that some animals will flourish as therapy, search and rescue, or other specialty trained animal human service.

We intend to utilize dogs and animals in training that prove to thrive as service animals in whatever capacity brings them life, joy, and purpose.

As a part of their training program, we will serve in disaster events as well as visiting people in medical facilities, isolated individuals, programs for the mentally and emotionally challenged, children's events, etc.

Many rescues will no doubt become well adjusted loving companion pets, which the world will surely never have enough of for those who will need and Love them.

For those animals that don't quite find their match, we will joyfully sanctuary them with us even if it's for the rest of their lives.  

These animals may participate in events or do nothing at all based on their abilities or level of comfort.

Lastly,  but not of least concern,   We hope to be able to assist people

who have pets and find themselves in crisis.  

By connecting people with resources, we want to relieve the stress of making a heartbreaking decision to give up their pets for the sake of survival.

There are too many overflowing shelters full of abandoned pets and

too many people finding themselves in dire situations,

many due to no fault of their own.  

We will endeavor to help stabilize the individuals with their pets,

since they already have a loving relationship, so that 

they can be kept together.

Why are Rescue Organizations Important

Rescue Organizations are necessary to save the precious Lives of Animals from the cruelty of homelessness, kill shelters, unfunded medical treatment, and death.

If  You are planning to Adopt and are concerned about the unknowns of an animal shelter Adoption or any other source of acquiring a pet, as a Rescue organization We could be Your answer.

We will have already assessed and addressed the medical and behavioral needs of the Animal for You, also we will have spayed/neutered, microchipped, etc., and paid for it.

This prevents the unforeseen from overwhelming an Adopter or pet purchaser and perhaps causing the turning in of a pet to a deadend shelter system.

Our Rescue assures an Ambassador has the best possible advantage to successfully finding a Furever Home and Never returning to their previous condition or worse.

We are committed to breaking the cycle of animal shelter overload.

We operate entirely on 100% tax deductible donations, fundraising, and the skills of professionals and volunteers.

Our MISSION is how we accomplish the restoration of an Animal for the future success of the Animal Kingdom and reverse the cycle of too often certain death so that an Animal can have a real chance to Live and Thrive.

An Ambassador of Love deserves to experience the love of their own person or family and the People who Love them deserve to experience the Joy of their Love and Loyalty.

         We thank you so much for desiring to be a part of our team as a

Foster PAWrent to one of our Ambassadors.  For every Foster PAWrent that   joins us, there is a Life saved and a home Blessed by the Gift of Love that

       YOU made possible by generously opening Your Heart and Home!                  To foster one of our Ambassadors you will be voluntarily providing temporary care until an Adoption match is made.  The legal ownership and financial responsibility of the Ambassador will be Ours as the Non-profit Rescue until there is a legal Adoption.  We will be of constant support and            provide for your rewarding journey to assure You have a successful            experience with your foster.  Your foster will be depending on you for their feeding, vet visits, any medical care, a warm safe environment, and of course lots of Love and compassion.  There will need to be time for decompressing, some basic training, socialization, and the learning of good manners that will      help when meeting their new family.  You will be provided with all their                        necessary items, such as food, bedding, crates, toys, etc.

   Hopefully, You will be anxious to again be the reason for a Life saved and                                     for more Family Love connections.

    Understandably there will be an occasional Foster Fail when the Foster         Pawrent and the fostered Ambassador become the Match, so we will

       always be needing endless numbers of qualifying Foster Pawrents.  

    We would be so pleased should it work out that You would join with Our                     Non-profit organization Family in whatever way You find

                                           You can be of support.

AMBASSAD    RS

We currently have 2 Ambassador Puppers who are in need of Your support for medical care. 

Both are listed below with a summation of their journey so far.  Thank You for Your support and caring for these precious ones.

We are going to see to it with Your Help that these Ambassadors get the professional care as well as all the Love and comfort they deserve.

WELCOME

         Charity!

This is Charity's Story as we know it, if she could only tell us more....

IMG_3129_edited_edited.jpg

Charity came from an over capacitated Kill Shelter in L.A. county.  Picked up from the street. Dirty, matted, with ticks and fleas.

Charity was listed as a Shih Tzu mix, 3 and a half to 4 years old, and underweight at only 10 pounds.

No Microchip, No Collar, so No Tags and No Name.   NO One came for her...

WE saw Her Shelter picture... WE came for Her.

The Shelter had stripped her of her matted coat when we came to Rescue her, they had treated her for ticks and fleas, gave her vaccines, dewormed her, and thought she might have kennel cough so she was given meds for that too.

The shelter Vet said that there were no other obvious health problems detected with their limited exam resources.

When taking pictures of her we noticed she has a distinctive Heart patch. How fitting!

This is Charity several weeks after we rescued her.

Shelter Picture

  Fast forward... Charity has been spayed, probably didn't have kennel cough, but has struggles with allergies.  She has seen three different Vets since the shelter Vet, for spay, blood work, UTI treatment, and recently again for having severe allergy attacks.  At Charity's last Vet visit for the allergy attacks, her Vet says she has a progressing trachea problem probably due to genetics.    

In spite of Charity's hardships, she is loving, bursts with Joyful Zoomies, and adores attention!  She is very independent, house broken, crate trained, loves toys, loves to eat chicken, organic fruits and vegetables, and understands some commands but at her own discretion of course!  Whatever her previous life was, it's obvious she was very much Loved.

  Sadly, Charity has some insecurities probably due to experiences that she fell victim to since she was separated from her Loving relationships.  She is people selective and can be aggressive especially towards men, cats, and dogs.  Most likely she was abused and attacked as she fought to survive before being picked up and left at the Shelter.

   The shelter handlers and Vet were female and said she was sweet and submissive.  We soon discovered that she had fear when just hearing Men's voices, not to mention, a direct encounter.  We constantly have been working on her trust issues.  When she feels safe, she seems to be intuitive and more trusting, rather than reactive.  With her two understanding male Vets, she relaxes, feels secure, and enjoys their attention.  

A young man with time and patience, has Successfully

and thoroughly won Charity over!  We

have lots of hope for her.

IMG_9223.png

  Charity's biggest challenge now will be finding the best path to navigate her trachea needs.  We have researched, asked Veterinarians, and learned that apparently this can be a fragile, difficult problem to manage.  There are not many successful solutions, but we believe

in Miracles and will give her every fighting chance for a normal life.  She isn't to the point where the surgery risk is her last hope, but the balance of maintenance and monitoring care can be challenging and pricey.  We hope to find a way for her to continue her new found happiness as comfortably as possible.

 Please help Charity receive the special medical attention she needs.  

We would like it if she could be provided whatever is necessary to

allow her the best Quality of Life.

IMG_1457_edited_edited_edited.jpg

  Charity is full of Life and deserves a chance to Live it!   Thank YOU so much for Your Love and Support for Charity! 

Bodie! 

      on Deck

IMG_0036.png

Bodie came to us as an Owner surrender.  His Pawrent is elderly and was in need of assistance with his growing medical needs.

The rising costs of  Vet bills, dog food, healthy supplements, etc., are difficult to manage on a fixed income.

Bodie is a 10 year old gentleman with health issues that need attention.  He has a few lumps that are benign, hip issues, and in need of dental care.

Bodie will need a current blood work up to determine organ condition, as well as x-rays.  Also, He has allergy issues that have been managed well with Benadryl and supplements. 

Bodie is currently being Fostered by someone he knows, so he is a very content and happy fella, not feeling any anxiety and can still visit with his Pawrent.

IMG_0996_edited_edited.png

Bodie loves to go for walks, play with toys... especially his soccer ball, eat chicken and organic carrots and apples.  He hates cats, and not readily friendly with all dogs.  Bodie is crate trained, house broken, knows some commands, but not entirely happy with car rides unless he is sitting on someone's lap.  He can be a little hesitant with some people but never rude.  The good news is he likes people the most who let him sit on their lap!

IMG_1645_edited.png

Bodie is a really nice little guy, with a lot of Love to give and a lot of Life to Live!

  We Thank you so much for your love and generosity!

  Bodie Thanks You for helping him Live his Best Life!

NEEDS

1.  FUNDS

As a nonprofit, we can only care for and Rescue as many animals as we have the funds to support. All of us work as volunteers, all funds go for the care and rescue of the Animals. We would Love to empty the Kill Shelters, but the Reality is, we can't without enough funding to finance their needs. 

Siberian Husky Resting_edited.jpg

2.  FOSTERS

Fosters are necessary for the care, rehabilitation, and comfort of some of the animals as they transition into being a healthy Ambassador ready for a Furever Home. We will Never have Too many Foster Pawrents! If You are interested in Fostering, please go to our FOSTER Application section. We would love to have You join us in the fight to save Lives!   

Cute Jack Russell_edited.jpg

3.  ADOPTORS

As we Rescue animals, it is important to have as many Applications for Adoption as possible.  We would love to have a surplus of eager Adoptors waiting for their Ambassador of Love! The sooner an Ambassador Match is made the sooner we will have more space and resources ready to Rescue again!

4. SPONSORS & FUNDRAISERS

If You, someone you know, Your Business, Church, Sports, Youth activity or any other organization would like to get involved with our nonprofit organization, Please CONTACT us! We would love to hear from You and how You would like to be a Support for our Ambassadors! We are open to out of the box ideas to Save as many Animals as we can raise the means to Support!

THANK YOU for caring about the NEEDS of our Ambassadors!!  Without Your help there would be No Rescue and No rescued little Ambassadors to share their Gift of Love with the World.  

YOU make it All Possible!  

Fundraising Car Wash_edited_edited.jpg

On our DONATE page there is a short list of some of the most common expenses that are necessary to maintain this Rescue mission. Some of the Animals have special Needs such as specific food and nutrition requirements, custom harnesses or training equipment, medical or natural treatments, particular crate or bedding needs, and even toys for the allergy sensitive, toys that are age appropriate, and toys for their level of destructiveness.

We do our best to provide what is needed to give each individual Ambassador the care, socialization, and stimulation to become a healthy well adjusted Member of our World.
