Regional Food Bank : Accept and store pet food donations in our building on our farm for distribution to people who have a hard time providing nutritional food for their pets. Also a food supply for anyone providing foster homes to animals in our area.
Rescues and fostering: Providing shelter and health care for abused or abandoned animals in the NRV and also acting as a foster home for animals available for adoption with other organizations in our region.
Doggie Style Makeovers: Instead of extreme makeovers for people we would like to do makeovers for dogs in need of better living conditions. It may be a fenced in area with a new dog house, finding a way to provide shade, or putting in underground fencing. We would like to start with 4 makeovers in the first year and expand to 6-12 per year. We can make it a fun program that students from VT can volunteer their time to help and people in the community can nominate needy recipients through their local vet office.
Financial Aid: We would like to be able to provide financial assistance to other similar organizations in our area and also provide assistance to students at the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinarian Medicine at Virginia Tech.
Cancer Assistance: If we obtain a substantial following and are financially able, we would like to provide our donors with the opportunity to receive financial assistance if their pet requires cancer treatments. Our board members would make decisions based on need and available funds, but we would like to give back to our donors when they have an extreme circumstance that requires costly medical treatments for their pet.
