Save-A-Shelter focuses on improving the facilities and resources of dog shelters, empowering them to rescue and care for more dogs. Our hands-on assistance includes renovations, shelter upgrades, and providing critical tools and supplies. By enhancing these environments, we help create safer, healthier spaces where dogs can thrive while they await their forever homes.
Operation PUPavillion
Our mission was to lead a team of dedicated volunteers and builders on a covert mission to provide shelter and comfort to the canine inhabitants of Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter (Eureka, Montana) in dire need. Our mission is to construct a state-of-the-art Gazebo for Dogs, codenamed "Operation PUPavilion," to shield these innocent animals from the scorching summer sun and harsh Montana winters.
We began by conducting a site assessment to gather critical information on the shelter's layout to select optimal size and location for the gazebo. We presented this information to our Hero Club community of donors, and the mission was a-go. We gathered a team of volunteers and We Love Doggos Charity team members and drove to Eureka, Montana, in 90-degree heat to build the structure. There were some occasional prying doggos in the shelter’s backyard; you could see the anticipation in their eyes for solace form the hot summer day. It took the team 3 total visits, but the end result was everything Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter had hoped for and more.
RESULTS:
Operation PUPavilion was not just about building a gazebo; it was about providing a safe and comfortable space for our four-legged friends in need. Our Hero Club’s dedication to this mission will ensure that these dogs find solace from the elements and experience the care and compassion they deserve. To commemorate our community’s dedication, we have placed a plaque in honor of our Hero Club members inside the gazebo. While the mission was covert, the humans and doggos shaded by the gazebo will know We Love Doggos for years to come.
MISSION: Huck's Heroes
Our mission was to orchestrate an engaging raffle fundraiser to provide a lifeline of support for The Animal Pad, rescue PAWrtners in San Diego, California. They needed help in the care of 380+ doggos that they saved from a hoarding situation down in Mexico. Their needs were extensive, but there was a deeper meaning for the team behind the scenes at We Love Doggos Charity.
The raffle operation was intended to honor a Brand AmbassaDOG who left pawprints on our hearts, Huckleberry. Huckleberry was a special needs doggo with spina bifida than many would have cast aside. But Packo Leader, Terry Williamson, took a chance on him and gave him his own set of wheels and a new outlook on life.
RESULTS:
With the support of the We Love Doggos Charity Hero Club, we are making a monthly contribution per month to sponsor doggos in their care. This ongoing contribution will serve as a much-needed financial boost to the rescue organization and the doggos that need it most.
MISSION: Freedom Ride
Our mission this go round was to unite our charity partners! We teamed up with our original partners, The Underdog Railroad Transport, to bring a group of 17 doggos in need from an overcapacity shelter in Northern California over to our affiliate rescue partners in Eureka, Montana, Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter. The ultimate goal was to get these doggos out of harms way and into temPAWrary no-kill animal shelters so that they would have the best chance at finding their FURever homes. This mission was codenamed: Operation Safe Haven.
OBJECTIVE: The first step was to collaborate with the transport group, Underdog Railroad, to study the passenger list of dogs being transported. They identify dogs in high-kill shelters and pull the ones at risk in the coming days…it is a truly valiant effort on their behalf.
On an ongoing basis, We Love Charity provides their non-profit with a monthly sponsorship to cover vital transport needs like dog food, medication, and gas expenses. But this time, our support was even more hands on.
We worked with Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter to set the arrival date to unload the doggos from the transport van into their safe-haven facility. Our operatives, a.k.a. the We Love Doggos Executive Director, Terry Williamson and his lovely wife Lori, traveled up to Eureka to aid in the move and ensure that each dog was greeted with love, care, and a promise of a better life. Terry said, “You could see the look in their eyes; they realized that they were going to be okay…”
RESULTS:
After some hugs goodbye, the Underdog Railroad Transport team hit the road en route to Canada to rescue even more doggos in need. Meanwhile, our team on the ground worked with Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter to make the new shelter residents comfortable in their short-term home before being adopted. Every doggo saved becomes a success story; a testament to the dedication and bravery of our team and charity partners. These missions are PAWsible because of our communities unwavering commitment of our partners, the tireless efforts of the volunteer rescue team at Underdog Railroad Transport, and the generosity of our Hero Club members who support these life-saving initiatives. Together, we are changing the lives of doggos, one daring rescue at a time.
