My Nonprofit Reviews

I volunteered to foster a PRM puppy earlier this year. When the puppy arrived from overseas, I noted she had a serious eye condition that was painful and would have eventually led to blindness. Puppy Rescue Mission immediately authorized treatment with no hesitation. After conservative treatments over several weeks had not resolved the problem, PRM requested the puppy be seen by a veterinary eye specialist, who recommended surgery. While healing from the surgery took much longer than expect, Puppy Rescue Mission never wavered in its commitment to do what was best for the puppy. The puppy has now fully recovered, the eye condition has resolved as has the pain, and she is resting beside my chair after a full day of puppy games. As a result of Puppy Rescue Mission's dedication, this puppy, her mother, and her litter mates are safe, healthy, and much loved in the U.S.

Members of the military sent overseas, for some the first time away from home and family, find themselves dealing with so many challenges, i.e. dangerous conflict areas, vastly differing cultures, homesickness, stressors associated with highly regulated military life, loneliness to name just a few. Some of them find solace in caring for a stray dog or cat hanging around base and become very attached. Not wanting to leave behind to a horrible fate the little furry ones who gave them peace, love, and a connection to the goodness of life the soldiers can contact Puppy Rescue Mission for help. PRM finds a way to help the soldiers bring their beloved fur buddies home and that means the world to our soldiers.

This is an amazing organization! Having spent decades rescuing dogs then finding home and/or jobs for them, I know that there are so many dogs in shelters that could become working dogs yet few look to shelters. The National Disaster Search Dog Foundation has found a way to not only save dogs from shelters and pounds but then to match them with the perfect handler, train then, and then use them to help people far and wide.
