Make A Difference ... Adopt A Pet ... Save A Life!
Spotlight Pup
NESTLE is our SPOTLIGHT DOG! My name is Nestle. I have been at FPALR a bit longer than I would have liked. Don't get me wrong I like it here, it's better than the alternative of a kill-shelter. But I really would love a family of my own. The volunteers can't understand why I haven't found my forever home yet. They keep asking why no one has seen in me what they see. I am a great size about 35-45 lbs. I am a hound mix with the best colors. Who doesn't love a tri color pup. I am still young about 1-2. I have a great personality. I'm smart. I love kids. I am playful but relax too. I enjoy other dog company a ton. I know you are worth the wait but don't make me wait any longer. Won't you come see me!!

We have been rated as one of the best animal shelters in the northern suburbs by our veterinary clinic and staff, as well as our clients and visitors! Come visit our facility for an organized scheduled tour, to see the before and after condition of our saved dogs! When they get adopted, they do not want to leave our excellent care! However, we need to part with them as millions of others need our HELP!

These are some of the dogs that came to us heartworm positive. Maggie, Pepper, Taz, Abby, and Daisy Mae have started their treatment and so far they are doing great. Unfortunately heartworm treatment is costly ... but look at these faces ... we weren't going to say no. Please help us continue to treat these dogs and others just like them. **Donate Today** Any amount big or small means the world to them and us!
Consider fostering Abby. She is heartworm positive, undergoing treatment, and needs a home environment to recover in. Abby is a great dog and just needs a stress free place to keep her calm per doctor's orders. Help Abby today!!
SPONSOR A DOG. DONATE, DONATE MONTHLY-->
We are always in need of donations, volunteers, and sponsors. Go to Donate/Sponsor to sponsor a dog. Our vet bills are very high and we have no sponsors or help from any foundations such as the large pet store foundations or charities! Grants are usually not approved for no-kill rescues or shelters; only the animal control facilities, and the kill shelters/humane societies! Please research to whom you donate!
We are in need of the following items for our new semi-cageless shelter: new wire crates, doggy beds, doggy treats, and stainless steel rubbish containers.
Sponsor a crate, a dog, or a room and make a difference today! Four rooms are available. Each room will be dedicated to the sponsor family or business and their name will be permanently placed on each room. Crate donations range from $100 - $500.
