ColoradoCI.com
- [Click on K-9 Companion under
Services] The Prison Trained K-9 Companion Program (PTKCP) provides
the outside community with pre-trained dogs. Dogs graduating
from this program fill many roles: everything from a wonderfully
trained basic family pet to nursing home dogs to very sophisticated
assistance dogs that perform a variety of tasks for their masters.
These dogs are perfect pets for the youngest child to an elderly
parent. One of the best and most unique aspects of the program
is that it saves dogs, both pure bred and mixed breed, from
humane shelters and other animal rescues all over Colorado and
surrounding states. We have been inspected by the Colorado State
Veterinarian's office and licensed as an animal rescue.

LongHopes.org - The Longhopes Donkey Shelter was incorporated January 2000 but began in 1998 when the founder, Kathy Dean, went looking for her own donkeys. She knew there were unwanted donkeys needing homes but she was unable to find them, because unwanted donkeys are routinely sold for slaughter at local sale barns. Wanting to offer an alternative, Kathy learned that rescuing donkeys was impossible without a facility where the donkeys could be rehabiltated and trained until a new owner was found. |

Pets911.com
- PETS 911 believes that if you consolidate all the adoption,
fostering, lost and found, volunteer, shelter/clinic, and health
and training information out there and give the public a single
and easy place to find this information, education will substantially
increase and euthanasia will decrease. That is our mission.
PETS 911 consists of not only a Web site, but also a toll-free
phone hotline (1-888-PETS-911) that allows everyone to access
the important, life-saving information we provide. This is why
we consider ourselves a true public service. And, at the same
time, we are not competing with our shelter and rescue partners
for donation dollars. We thank our partners for making PETS
911 possible. |
