Review for Pinky Paws Search & ResQ, Selma, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Krystle Woodward and her husband Allen run their shelter Pinky Paws ResQ with little to no help. She has a handyman and maybe 1-2 volunteers who help her out. She works full time and uses half of her salary to support her shelter.

She has been so awesome working to rescue Betty Boop a pregnant Momma dog who had been wandering back and forth for miles searching for food to bring back to her babies. Krystle made multiple attempts to capture/trap her and she kept escaping. She finally began to trust Krystle enough that she eventually led her to an abandoned building where she had all her babies hidden. They were all taken back to the shelter and the pups were all adopted out. Betty Boop lives with Krystle who would like to get some training for her to make her into a therapy dog.

The Woodwards worked especially hard during July 4th when they went out and rescued and secured many loose dogs that were frightened by the fireworks etc.

She has diligently networked many of the dogs in her care to out of state rescues who have successfully gotten them forever homes.

I met Krystle over a year ago when I brought her several jugs of bleach that she had requested and some puppy pads. I always am on the lookout for good deals on items that she requests to help keep the dogs that she rescued comfortable.

She and her husband are loving and caring people who have devoted their entire lives to rescue. I wish that Krystle could get some financial help so she could work on improvements to her shelter and allow the dogs to lead a more comfortable life while looking and waiting for their forever homes.
