Forever Rescues
At Happy Tails Rescue, Inc. we take rescuing seriously! When we rescue a dog they are a part of the HTRI family forever. No matter how long it takes to find their forever homes they will always be in our care. Some of the babies that we have rescued that have issues that have prevented them from finding their forever homes will be with us until they cross the rainbow bridge. When we pull/rescue a baby we provide spay/neuter, all their shots, heart worm prevention medication, flea/tick treatments, and anything else they need the whole time they are in our care and that includes the ones we will keep forever. When we say that we are the voice of the voiceless we truly mean it, we stay loyal to those that we rescue because they deserve the very best until the very end. One hand, one paw, one voice always!
