Eleventh Hour Rescue is made up of dedicated individuals who believe that innocent pets deserve love and a place to live where they are honored and cared for. No dog deserves to die simply because it does not have a home. Eleventh Hour Rescue rescues dogs at their Eleventh Hour--when they are scheduled to be put to death by shelters that can no longer care for them. EHR gives the dogs all the medical attention they require, a place to live, and through its adoption services, a second chance at a happy and fulfilled life. EHR is affiliated with many like-minded animal groups throughout the United States. It also educates the community about the animal over population problem and the importance of spaying and neutering.
A message from Eleventh Hour Rescue:
Approximately 7 million pets will die this year in shelters across the US. They will die with a feeling of abandonment, lonesomeness, and fear. Yet, these dogs are real, they are living, breathing, beings that crave love, companionship, and trust, while offering the same in return. They do feel pain, hunger and sadness and we do what we do because we want to make a difference. If we can bring comfort to just one, we will. If we can save just one life, we will. The stories we read and each dog's story is heart-wrenching, the numbers of those we can't help are overwhelming, and everyday we are haunted by the faces of those we can't save.
We cannot stop.
We will not stop, until all of the cages are empty.
Each year EHR continues to advance its mission of rescuing and re-homing wonderful animals. Through our programs we have seen many lives changed for the better. Our goal is to continue to make a difference in the lives of abandoned animals. In order to continue our mission, we must be diligent in our fundraising efforts. Every dollar that we raise will go towards helping to save innocent dogs from certain death.
