  • Rescue and Rehome Based on Animal Condition
    methodology: rescue-and-rehome
    By rescuing dogs at risk of euthanasia and assessing their health, we place them into adoption or hospice care pathways because matching the intervention to the animal's condition improves welfare outcomes and maximizes lives saved.
