LEGACY OF HOPE DOG RESCUE

Mission Statement

This is an all volunteer 501c3 organization dedicated to the improvement of the lives of our best friends. Our goal is to rescue homeless and surrendered dogs. With the support of donations and the hard work of volunteers, we can rescue and rehabilitate dogs in need. We will provide shelter, veterinary care, love, toys, food, and training. In addition, we work to find forever homes for each dog. Finally, pitbull breeds are in grave distress: of all dogs in shelters, 70-75% are "pit bulls or pit bull mixes". Only 1 in 600 dogs of this breed will find a home and the remainder are euthanized. Due to the pervasive negative publicity surrounding this breed, there is a reluctance to allow one to become a family member. As an organization, we are working daily thru our actions and the actions of the dogs in the rescue to prove that the breed is being unfairly demonized and deserves to be judged on an individual basis as a dog regardless of pedigree and physical appearance.
