My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dorothy is a survivor! This poor pup was found on a logging road, unable to stand. She was rushed to emergency care where we learned that she had a broken pelvis and a shattered leg. Thanks to generous supporters, we were able to amputate her leg, and after lots of rest and love, her pelvis was able to heal naturally on its own.

Now Dorothy is healthy and ready for a family of her own. She loves to run and play. She's super affectionate and loves all the snuggles! When she's really relaxed, she's a snoring machine!

Her fosters guess that she wouldn't like to be in a home with cats though we haven't tested her with any. She'd be fine as the only dog but could do well with friendly dogs and proper introductions.

Go meet their pets

Our pets are currently in foster homes as well as we have a program with the local women's prison. With the prison the animals live in the room with the inmate handler and receive socialization and training. We have just recently added dogs to our program with the prison. Generally the pets are brought to our office for their meet and greets and adoptions. We also partner with Ziggy's Cat Lounge in Bremerton for our cats and kittens.

More about this rescue

We are a small but mighty Humane Society serving an underserved county with adoption, spay and neuter, wellness, stray recovery, and other animal related services. Currently we are all foster as we don't have a shelter yet, but we have a 5 acre parcel we are going to build a shelter on. We have started the planning process with Shelter Planners of America.
