Family Dogs New Life is a no kill, kennel free, dog shelter devoted to rescuing needy dogs of all breeds, ages and backgrounds. We believe that all dogs deserve a second chance at a new life. We are here for the dogs who have no other options. This includes dogs that other shelters do not have space for, long term residents who have run out of time or dogs that are struggling in the conventional shelter environment. Our mission, simply, is to help reduce the number of dogs being euthanized. FDNLS is unique in that we do not house our dogs in kennels or dog runs, but in large play groups or ‘packs’ of anywhere from 8-20 dogs living loose together. We typically have 35-50 dogs in our shelter at all times. Because of our group housing all our dogs are able to play and interact all day long, just like a doggy daycare or dog park. It’s not about being the perfect dog, it is about dog and adopter being perfect for one another. Visit our website at familydogsnewlife.org
We provide sanctuary for abused, abandoned and neglected farm animals. We also provide opportunities for members of the community to interact with the animals for mutual benefit. Our mission is to cultivate mutually beneficial relationships among humans, animals and the natural environment. By honoring and nurturing the animal/human bond, we envision a world where our awareness of our connectedness compels us to respect one another and our planet.
