Rescue groups who come to the aid of dogs and cats are springing up all over. I'd like to shine the spot light on a local, honest, official 501c3 non-profit which is deserving of accolades from our community.
Yellow Brick Road Rescue and Sanctuary provides a real home for dogs in need while striving to find the best long term home for those which can be placed. The rescue organizer, Dana Dormand says, "It is time consuming, but it is important that I personally visit every potential home for the best placement." This is one of many things that sets this rescue apart from others. She believes education is also an important part of helping pet guardians keep and care for their pets. As a veterinarian, I know that more pets are relinquished or abandoned due to behavioral reasons, more than any other cause. The Animal Doctor Holistic Veterinary Complex will be providing substantial free services to Yellow Brick Road residents as rescued pets are commonly in need of services that only a holistic practice can provide. Many pet parents do not have the means or desire to care for an aging pet who develops hind end weakness and urinary incontinence for example. A compassionate rescue, such as Yellow Brick Road, paired with Animal Doctor services, such as acupuncture, laser therapy, massage, essential oils or the herbal management of chronic pain can be just what the doctor ordered for many of these dogs!
