Every rescue has a dog that started it. For us, that dog is Petey. When it came time to give this work a name, there was only ever one choice. This organization is his promise: that the dogs who come after him will be cared for the way he deserved to be.
The heart of the promise
Our promise is to help homeless dogs like Petey get the essentials they need to live out their lives to their fullest.
Petey is the reason we talk about promises instead of programs. Every dog who comes into care, whether they go on to a family or stay with us for life, is part of keeping it.
Petey’s full history (where he came from, what he’s been through and who he is) will be published here in Lyndsey’s words. We won’t fill in the blanks ourselves.
Every dog deserves safety, dignity, care and a chance to live their life to the fullest.
Keep the promise going
You can honor Petey by helping the dogs who need us most: sponsor Petey, become a monthly supporter, or read our mission.
