OUR URGENT PLEA FOR HELP!!

With the current state of the economy, everyone is struggling to make ends meet.  Unfortunately, the ones who end up suffering through no fault of their own are the animals who are dumped by the side of the road, or surrendered to shelters with little hope of being adopted.  Here at the Ranch, we're dedicated to saving as many of these poor pups as we can, but it takes time and money - two things that we desperately need!  Both Art and I have full time jobs, and all of our earnings go back into the Ranch to keep it operating. 

We love what we do, and the sense of satisfaction we have when a pup is placed in a loving, forever home is irreplaceable. 

We desperately need your help!  Dog food, medications and supplies are expensive - caring for the pups is another full-time occupation.  Donations of supplies, services and funding will be greatly appreciated!  A donation of as little as $1.00 by each of our visitors will provide funding to help care for our pups!  If you would like to sponsor one of our pups, please call Joy at (919) 398-5230 to discuss sponsorships.

If you would like to support our rescue efforts by making a tax-deductible charitable donation, please click on the "PayPal" icon which appears below.  THANK YOU for your continued support!!  No amount is too small - we appreciate your support!

We are conveniently located just outside of Smithfield, about 5 miles East of I-95.  We are near the Carolina Outlet Centers, and close to the interchanges for I-40 and US HWY 70.
