On This Day...
I wish,
For every dog
searching trash cans for breakfast,
a filled bowl with his name printed in bright letters.
For every dog
who slept fitfully last night, chained in a frozen yard,
a soft, warm bed
with a person snoring gently nearby.
For every shelter dog,
spending a Holiday morning in a soiled run,
a forever home,
filled with sounds and smells of family.
For every "Holiday" puppy
given today,
a tolerant, caring owner
who won't abandon you
as you grow into a real dog.
For every ailing pet,
enough money for your owner
to pay the bills to make you well.
For every lost dog,
a clear, safe road, and well marked path,
to lead you home.
For every old and tired friend,
a warm fire, and a soft bed,
to ease your aches and pains.
and
For every Heart Dog at the Bridge,
a moment . . . when you know that you
are remembered today,

Adopting a friend
Adopting a friend
To adopt one of our rescues we will need to you to complete an adoption form. Please understand that a home visit and Vet references will be checked. We prefer local adoptions but will consider others according to the circumstances. Also understand we are very protective of our rescues because of their previous abuse, and we are all that is standing between them and more bad circumstances. All our dogs will be neutered/spayed before being adopted.
Animals are fully vetted and ready for their forever homes.
A typical adoption donation for a dog is $150-$200, more for some purebreds/puppies, less for senior or special needs animals, or those who will benefit from formal obedience training.
A typical adoption donation for a cat is $90, higher for some purebreds/kittens, less for senior or special needs animals.
