Review for Indigo Rescue, Beaverton, OR, USA
I moved from Alaska to Oregon in 2005. We wanted to make a difference. Help animals. We came in contact with Indigo Rescue. We started fostering dogs. The relationship quickly grew to volunteering at Indigo Ranch. I also began training as a handler. In time, after much training and learning, I became a general supervisor for the ranch. Which I did, plus 90 to 100 hours volunteer on top of that. While I Returned to Alaska, I still remain active with indigo rescue. Heather Hines is at the helm of this organization. What I know to be a fact of everyday life for heather is that she NEVER EVER gives up. To her it is 24/7. All day and all night. Just her never stopping is an inspiration. I have respect for the drive she shows and gives every single day. Her te at the ranch is strong, educated and devoted. Nothing that came easy.. It takes time and dedication to find that perfect balance. Take the time to see for yourself. My heart remains at the ranch, where I enjoyed some of the best days of my life. Remember the dog boarding allows for more rescue work.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Give heather the funding and the tools to expand her rescue abilities within her personal home, she constantly is absorbing rescued animals that she can't place I fosters as there is a shortage. If she had the space and help, she could expand/buy a property that will help he continue her work. And a part time employee coming to the premises to assist her will allow her to get out on the streets saving animals. The ranch is doing well. Let's get the rescue end the support it deserves.
