S.A.F.E. Sanctuary

S.A.F.E. Sanctuary is a group of local people who have banded together to Save Animals From Euthanasia. Our goal is to find good forever homes for homeless pets. We are a foster based rescue so we can only take in animals as room is available. We work with animals on behavior issues when ever possible. S.A.F.E. is a no-kill group, meaning no adoptable dog is euthanized due to space or time in foster care. This also means that we are unable to take in dogs that have a history of aggression or biting. The dogs are not kept in kennels, they are all fostered in our homes. All pets are vetted, altered, individualized and spoiled rotten. Many of our animals come from high kill shelters where they would have been euthanized if we had not rescued them. This is their chance at a new home, they are great dogs who's only flaw was their color, size or location. With the dogs being in foster care they are socialized with other animals, worked with on house-training and obedience training so they will make fantastic family pets. We do our best to make sure all animals are healthy prior to going to their new homes. However, there is no guarantee when adopting an animal, there are things that veterinarians miss. We recommend re-worming along with an exam by your regular vet within 3 days of the adoption. As most if our dogs come from unknown backgrounds, it is impossible for us to screen for every possible condition. Medical costs are part of being a responsible pet parent. These dogs depend on us and their new families to provide them the best new life.
