Why
do we do what we do
We are a nonprofit organization of active members and supporting
volunteers and contributors. Our goal is finding good homes for
stray or unwanted cats and dogs. Pets awaiting adoption are
sheltered in the homes of our volunteers. We do not euthanize
healthy, adoptable pets - they remain in our foster care until
adopted, however long that may take. (PLEASE - consider becoming a foster
pet-parent. (See our About Us
page
for information) We desperately need you. We also promote responsible pet ownership, most
especially the
spaying/neutering of all pets in order to reduce the population of
unwanted animals.
Since our establishment in 1977, Save-A-Pet's volunteers, with the
support of our contributors, and our Corporate Sponsors, have saved the lives of thousands of
local cats and dogs. With your help, we'll continue to do so. Please
consider adopting a pet from us. Contact

Why do we do what we do
Once I was a lonely dog,
Just looking for a home.
I had no place to go,
No one to call my own.
I wandered up and down the streets,
in rain in heat and snow.
I ate what ever I could find,
I was always on the go.
My skin would itch, my feet were sore,
My body ached with pain.
And no one stopped to give a pat
Or to gently say my name.
I never saw a loving glance,
I was always on the run.
For people thought that hurting me
was really lots of fun.
And then one day I heard a voice
So gentle, kind and sweet,
And arms so soft reached down to me
And took me off my feet.
"No one again will hurt you
Was whispered in my ear."
"You'll have a home to call your own
where you will know no fear"
"You will be dry, you will be warm,
you'll have enough to eat"
"And rest assured that when you sleep,
your dreams will all be sweet".
I was afraid I must admit,
I've lived so long in fear.
I can't remember when I let
A human come so near.
And as she tended to my wounds
And bathed and brushed my fur
She told me bout the rescue group
And what it meant to her.
She said, "We are a circle,
a line that never ends".
"And in the center there is you
protected by new friends".
"And all around you are
the ones that check the pounds,
And those that share their home
after you've been found".
"And all the other folk
are searching near and far.
"To find the perfect home for you,
where you can be a star".
She said, "There is a family,
that's waiting patiently,
and pretty soon we'll find them,
just you wait and see".
"And then they'll join our circle
they'll help to make it grow,
so there'll be room for more like you,
who have no place to go".
I waited very patiently,
The days they came and went.
Today's the day I thought,
my family will be sent.
Then just when I began to think
It wasn't meant to be,
there were people standing there
just gazing down at me.
I knew them in a heart beat,
I could tell they felt it too.
They said, "We have been waiting
for a special dog like you".
Now every night I say a prayer
to all the gods that be.
"Thank you for the life I live
and all you've given me.
But most of all protect the dogs
in the pound and on the street.
And send a Rescue Person
to lift them off their feet".
We find beauty in the most
incomprehensible places and the
otherwise homely faces. It is our gift to
see beyond the dirt, terror,sadness,
and defeat and find the true soul that lies
within.
We are Rescue~
