Animal Rescue Volunteers, Inc. is a
non-profit organization that began in 1994.
We are all volunteers who love animals and wish to

pet overpopulation problem and
rescuing abandoned animals.
We are a well respected, long-standing organization that
provides this service to the Simi Valley Community as
well as Ventura and Los Angeles County areas.

We seek to decrease animal overpopulation by
expanding our pet spay/neuter program,
develop and distribute marketing materials that will
encourage others to foster our deserving animals,
Educate grammar school children to understand animal
behavior and know the responsibilities of having a pet,
and ultimately to obtain a facility
so we can rescue more animals
that have been left at our local animal shelters
AnimalSave is in the process of building Nevada County's
first no-kill shelter, ensuring that no adoptable homeless pet

AnimalSave exists to end the needless killing of adoptable/
treatable companion animals and to ensure their humane
treatment by creating a community pet adoption and
education center; rescuing, fostering, and placing homeless
animals; encouraging spay/neuter; bringing animals and
people together to enrich each others' lives; and
promoting the concept that every companion animal
deserves respect, as well as a loving home

I founded B.A.R.K. in 1991 while I was between careers
and doing volunteer work with Corgi Rescue.
Most of my time was spent in one of the large
LA County animal shelters, not a pleasant or hopeful place.
After a very short time I realized the
dire situation of the pet population in Los Angeles.
That was when I formed B.A.R.K., became a non-profit,
and really started rescuing big time!
The city and county of Los Angeles each have five
overflowing shelters, full of abandoned and unwanted cats
and dogs....animals who used to be someone's pets.
Most are sweet, and sadly, most are euthanized.
The Bill Foundation, like many
grassroots organizations across the country,
has chosen to face the problem of
pet overpopulation head on.
Working locally in Los Angeles,
our goal is to place healthy, adoptable animals in
new and loving homes while aiding in the
fight against pet overpopulation.
We also help care for those animals less fortunate-
those who need a little more time to get their
health back or may have behavioral problems
requiring advanced training before
going to a new home.
Since DAWG's inception in 1991, we have
worked hard to bring out the best in our dogs
and improve the quality of life for them
during their stay at the shelter.
What happens to these dogs?
With the support of the community, DAWG
volunteers provide a safe and loving environment
for our dogs awaiting permanent adoption and
promote adoption through outreach programs.
Most of the dogs in our care come from
the county's shelters.
DAWG's goal is to reduce the rate of euthanasia
in the county's shelter by providing the medical
care and training many dogs need
for a second chance at life.
The Dog Rescue Network is a grassroots
organization of one person. Located
approximately 2 hours north of Santa Barbara,
and 3 hours south of San Francisco. I am an
ordinary person who volunteers my time, home,
and resources, to rescue and foster dogs in need.
All of the animals are cared for until an
appropriate, loving, permanent home can be found
for them. I work as an independent rescuer, and
in conjunction with other rescue groups,
individuals, and county facilities. I receive no
funding except for adoption fees. The following
story is the reason I do this. It is an example of
what these animals will give to us. We just need
to open our eyes and hearts enough to recognize it
In 1952, a small group of Redding people realized that
the humane care of lost, homeless and abused animals
would never come to pass if left solely to the public
resources of city and county agencies.
Competition for public tax dollars and only limited
appreciation for the principle of humane animal care at
the time forced any possible improvement in the
situation to the very bottom
of the local government priority list.
Even today, some 50 years later, vital animal shelter
work is seldom adequately funded through tax revenues.
Through careful planning and day-to-day hard work
Haven Humane Society has earned community respect

We are a group of professionals in Los Angeles who
take small dogs who cannot be cared for
in the shelter and overlooked by most
rescue associations and adopters,
due to the high cost of medical care or
training/modification these "special needs" dogs
would require to make them a candidate for adoption.
Some are simply older; some have behavior issues.  
Many need surgeries or extensive
medical care and rehabilitation.
Some will require life long care of some form.
Ultimately, without a helping hand, these
Special Needs dogs will end up being euthanized.
