research laboratories where they are used for testing, then discarded ("cruelty
industries"). Dogs rescued by North Bay are spayed and neutered prior to
placement and are placed only after home checks, medical evaluations,
vaccinations, "return to rescue" agreements, contracts, and adoption fees. Dogs
are fostered in a home environment, rather than a kennel, if at all possible.
This group takes pride in their promise that, ". . . at any time and for any
reason in the dog's life, if the need arises, he or she has a safe place with us
('return to rescue' policy)." Telephone: (707) 795-7575. Fax: (707)769-9667.

Pet Network, San Francisco Bay Area
Pet Network writes: "All our dogs are spayed or neutered and current on all
shots. Almost all live in nurturing foster homes and are socialized with people,
children and other pets. Some of our foster parents are dog trainers, so often
there is the extra benefit of some obedience training while in the foster home.
The dogs come to us many times due to situations and living conditions caused by
abusive or irresponsible owners. Mainly they suffer from that 'most terrible
disease,' in the words of Mother Teresa, 'of being unwanted.' "

of dedicated, unpaid volunteers who rescue small dogs under 20 pounds. We

shelters all over central California, where thousands of dogs are euthanized
every month. Because the shelters are oftentimes very full, many loving,
adoptable dogs are euthanized. After the dogs are rescued, we place them in
foster homes until we can find them a permanent home. Because we have already
placed them in a home environment, we can tell you about their habits and house
manners and whether they get along well with other dogs, cats, and children. Our
dogs also have a thorough check up by our veterinarians before being placed and
are bathed, groomed and have flea treatments to get them ready for their new
home. For more information, please check the
Small Dog Rescue website.

(ages five and older) from shelters and rescue groups in the San Diego
community. We want to educate the San Diego community in general and senior
citizens specifically, about the wonderful benefits of adopting a senior mutt*.
By doing this we hope to help create a life-time match between a senior dog and
his or her new forever family. We feel this is a win-win situation since many
amazing senior dogs will have their lives spared and just as many citizens,
young and old, will have their lives enhanced by animal companionship. If that
wasn't reason enough, there are also many research studies that show the
connection between better mental health, improved physical health and having a
pet in your life. (* We lovingly refer to all dogs in shelters as "mutts"
whether they are purebred or a wonderful mix of breeds.)
