HART Dog Rescue
The Dog
Rescue Network is a grassroots organization of ordinary people that
volunteer their time, home, and resources, to rescue and foster dogs in
need. All of our animals are cared for by a foster home until an
appropriate, loving, permanent home can be found for them. We receive no
funding except for adoption fees. We are located in Atascadero, CA.
HART
Homeless Animal Rescue Team
Our
philosophy is ensuring quality of life to all living creatures, both feral
and domestic. By controlling the reproduction rate of neighborhood
strays, we are relieving some of the burden from the county pound,
consequently saving money for the local governments and taxpayers. By
"cleaning up" the local neighborhoods, HART also helps to prevent
fighting, spraying and the spread of diseases from the feral and stray
animals to family pets. Pet overpopulation is a huge cost to the
taxpayers, to the lives of the animals, and to the hearts of the people who
care.
Humane
Society of the United States
The
HSUS initiates major programs to protect America's most beloved companion animals,
dogs and cats, but we also work to promote the protection of all animals,
wild and domestic, through investigation, rehabilitation, public education,
political and consumer advocacy, and litigation.

Our goal
is to humanely reduce the population of feral cats and give them as much
quality of life as possible. Countless are killed because there are not
enough homes. Don't add to the problem, be part of the solution. One cat
and her offspring can produce 450,000 kittens in six years.

Services Division
Located
at 885 Oklahoma Avenue

Adopting an animal from the shelter is easy and inexpensive. All you have
to do is come down to the shelter, pick out the animal you want to adopt,
fill out some paperwork and pay a small fee and the animal is yours.
