Thanks for visiting!
Our rescue organization will assist you in finding the dog or cat that best satisfies your lifestyle. We work diligently to provide loving and stable homes for animals that have been abandoned. We believe every animal deserves a chance for a happy life. We appreciate that you are taking the time to consider a rescue pet. By doing this you are allowing a second chance at life for a special dog or cat.
We consider pet ownership a responsibility for the life of the animal. Please make sure you and your family are ready for this commitment. In return, you will receive years of unconditional love and loyalty from your best friend.
So, enjoy the ride as you view our adoptable pets!!!
Pet in need: JENNY
This is Jenny. She came to us as an owner surrender due to her family losing their home. She was just rushed to the vet with severe pneumonia. Her ER bill, along with a few days of hospitalization is totaling around $1,600!! We are in desperate need of donations for this girl. This was a very unexpected expense so late in the year and HALT could use your help to ensure Jenny gets the best possible care. Please take a moment to help Jenny by clicking the 'Donate' button below and it will guide you through the process. Thank you in advance for helping Jenny through her time of need. UPDATE!!!
Jenny has recovered!!!! She was able to spend several weeks after her illness in a special home that cared and loved for her. When she returned to us, we realized she would not be able to go back to a kennel so Jenny is presently in a foster/board care in Lodi, CA awaiting her forever home. She co-habitats with other big dogs and gets plenty of exercise and socialization and no stress from being in a cold kennel. This is a great opportunity for Jenny to get a buff-up on her basic odedience training. All these factors are working toward making her the best adoptable dog she can be. All of her care and board has been an unanticipated expense and setback for the rescue. We greatly appreciate any help you can offer to help with her expenses. Please contact our rescue if you would love for this amazing dog to become a part of your family.
