FACTS AND FIGURES
IT'S EXPENSIVE TO SAVE THE LIVES OF ANIMALS
The expenses are never ending to provide quality care for rescued animals. Adoption fees barely cover the costs that we incur to ensure that our rescues are healed, nourished, spayed/neutered, trained and vaccinated before they get adopted. We rely on donations, fundraisers and grants to support our initiatives to rescue, rehabilitate and place our rescues in great homes with loving families.
OVERVIEW OF ANNUAL MAJOR EXPENSES
- Pet Food (including specialized diets)
- Spay and Neuter
- Medications
- Microchip
- Immunizations
- Dental procedures (including cleaning and extractions)
- Eye care
- Surgery and treatment to mend broken bones, treat heartworms, and remove tumors, as examples of other medical costs that we incur. (This can easily range from $1,000 and upwards to several thousand dollars for an individual dog)
- Mortgage and facility maintenance, including utilities and repairs
