i used to be very active in pet rescue.but sadly my lack of energy forced me to make the decision to stop, so that my energy reserves could be used by my 5 kids. one thing that helped me with my guilt about this was by finding "best friends". they are an amazing group that really proves that pet rescue can be done on a huge scale in a great way.they are not even located in nevada.the nearest one to me is utah.while i was trying to help a dog that was 2 and couldn't use her back legs that a breeder was breeding anyways-best friends helped me with a grant for her and now she's walking and in a wonderful home!
i still get word of mouth calls from people with everything from dogs cats horses birds......but now i don't have to feel like i am the only solution to help the animal.if i can't find a quick solution i refer them to best friends and i know the animal will be alright.
they can help all over the country even if it's just by finding a good resource.there websight is truely entertaining for any animal lover as they have ongoing video journals of their animals that can be both funny and uplifting.with the upcoming christmas gift giving,if you are wondering what to give an animal lover you can sponser one of their animals as a personal gift.i have done that and every time my responce is "that was the best gift i got"
