Shelter to Home

Funded in 2018

Founded in 2007, Shelter to Home, Inc. is an animal rescue organization that works to save animals from shelters in their community by placing them into foster care until permanent homes are found, and to create sustainable solutions to achieve a no‑kill community. Thanks to their supporters, including volunteers, veterinarians and donors, they are able to help seriously ill and injured animals of all ages.

Shelter to Home's Grey Muzzle grant will help them provide additional services for senior dogs such as dental care, screening blood tests, laser treatments for arthritis, and costly medications. They will be able to help more animals like Laney, who was rescued with a grapefruit-sized mammary tumor hanging from her groin. Laney is at least 10 years old and now has several spots of cancer in her chest. Despite her illness, she is very happy and living life to the fullest in her hospice foster home.
