Lassie

Lassie came into rescue with her best friend Laddie, and we were so happy for them when they found a forever home where they could stay together.

Maggie's Give to the Max Story

I was seized with 133 dogs from a breeder in Pine River. Dogs that come from a place where the care is so substandard they have a long road physically and emotionally and may be in rescue for months or even years while we learn skills to live with people. Learned helplessness or high level of fear makes it difficult for us to learn to trust and accept love, but you have seen my amazing progress!
