Once again our dog population was low and we were able to make a trip south, to a high kill area, and managed to fit 37 dogs and one tiny Siamese kitten into the Yukon XL!!!  Rarely is there much vet work done on the dogs we choose so we have the normal expenses of getting them ready for adoption on top of the shelter pull fees, gas, one night hotel stay and lots of coffee so a trip costs us about $800.00.  However, this trip was sponsored by Regain Physical Therapy!!!  They are located at 3819 Monroe Ave., Pittsford, NY and are a new business with a new facebook site and we'd love to have you facebook them, "Like" them, and give them a shout out of thanks!  If you know any other businesses that might be willing to sponsor a southern rescue mission, please let us know. 

 

Not one dog complained about the long ride and all have settled in nicely.  Many of them seemed to have understood, right away, that they were now safe in our Dog House with fresh blankets, lots of Science Diet food, automatic waterers and even toys!  It gets a little confusing when getting files ready for so many, so if breed, size, age seems questionable with the photos shown, please let us know. We are doing the best we can to save as many as we can.  We so appreciate your understanding and willingness to adopt a dog we know little about that would have been dead, within a few days, If they had not come here.  We always test out of towners for heart worm.

 

Ayasha was born about April 28, 2013 and weighs about 50 lbs.  She is wonderful with other dogs, very sweet, affectionate, and has a nice medium energy.  She seems to be on the quiet side, just a really nice girl.  She does have too much interest in cats to be able to live with one.

 

Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming & flea control - a "complete" pet.

Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility.

YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES

We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption.
