Dogs Deserve Better, 2003 First Place Winner of the ASPCA/Chase Pet Protector Award, is a voice for chained and penned dogs, whose sadness speaks only through the eyes. As the days become years, many of these dogs sit, lay, eat, and defecate within the same 10-foot radius. Chained by the neck, they exist without respect, love, exercise, social interaction, and sometimes even basic nourishment. They live as prisoners, yet long to be pets.
Animal Friends Rescue Project (AFRP) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Pacific Grove, California. We were founded in June 1998 by four individuals who were passionate about making a difference to companion animal overpopulation. We are dedicated to finding good permanent homes for abandoned, stray, and abused companion animals and ending the pet overpopulation crisis through focused spay/neuter programs.

Praying for Paws is a non-profit dog rescue group that is dedicated to helping homeless dogs in the Henry County, Georgia area. We focus on larger dogs but have a large variety of breeds, such as German Shepherds, Border Collies, Beagles, terriers, hounds, and many beautiful Labrador Retrievers. Our biggest needs are adoptions, foster homes, volunteers, and donations.


Peace, Love & Pets was founded right after hurricane Katrina hit, leaving thousands of animals displaced and starving.  Colleen Kessler and her husband Gary, immediately created a relief effort to bring much needed animal supplies to the Gulf Coast.  Today, they continue to work on behalf of animals caught in natural disasters.  Please do what you can to support this grass roots effort.

Compassion Without Borders

Compassion Without Borders was founded in 2001 by Christi Payne and Juan Ramon Camblor . The main focus of our organization is to alleviate the suffering of unwanted companion animals in Mexico and other low resource regions through international rescue efforts and extensive spay/neuter campaigns.

Center for Animal Protection & Education
The goals of the Center for Animal Protection and Education  (CAPE) are to educate people about the plight of animals. In our Foster Care Program, we provide sanctuary for rescued animals who are older, injured or recovering from an illness. Every animal CAPE rescues is placed into a loving home through our Adoption Program. CAPE also sponsors, supports and produces educational programs about issues involving animals.
