THEIR MISSION IS TO RESCUE DOGS.

At Operation Overwatch we aim to heal at both ends of the leash; simply put, canines assisting veterans. Our outreach program serves veterans and first responders by providing them with professionally trained service dogs and animal assisted therapy. Operation Overwatch is a 501(c)(3) that rescues dogs from shelters across the country and trains them to be of service to warriors suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and/or traumatic brain injury, as well as those needing mobility assistance.

Operation Freedom Paws empowers veterans and others with disabilities to live a quality life by teaching them to train their own dogs, and certifying them as service dog teams. The dogs, usually from rescue organizations or shelters, are carefully evaluated. Each is then matched to a specific client’s physical and psychological needs. There is no charge – all we ask is a commitment to complete the 48-week training program.

Save Dogs

Their Mission: " We were founded in 2007 to as a sanctuary for unadoptable, ill or infirm rabbits, and when possible to help rehome the rabbit overflow from area animal shelters and place them in good quality, indoor homes. We are also a sanctuary for some cats, dogs, parrots, and guinea pigs who have come from animal shelters. We currently only rehome rabbits and are closed to intakes due to the recession. We currently only take in rabbits needing hospice care and only if space and resources are available, neither of which currently are available. All rabbits are spayed or neutered prior to adoption and adopters are given support and guidance for the lifetime of the rabbit."
