The Last Resort Animal Rescue and Sanctuary

The Last Resort is a Non Profit Animal Rescue dedicated to saving the lives of homeless, neglected, abandoned, and abused animals.

Our mission is to provide a safe refuge, rehabilitation, and permanent rehoming for all the animals that we rescue.  Also to provide sanctuary to the ones who are otherwise unadoptable.

Thousands of beautiful creatures each year are abandoned, neglected, abused and left to die by the people they trusted.

Our team of rescuers, vet techs, trainers, foster homes and volunteers  work diligently to bring these animals to safety where they can learn to love and trust humans again.

We rescue many dogs from death row in high kill shelters. We also rescue horses from auctions where they are sold for meat and from the cruel enslavement of Premarin farms.

Through fundraising, education and community support, we can all make a difference in the lives of these beautiful creatures .

They need our help !!! 

We are animal rescuers, this is our burden and our blessing !   

I Am an Animal Rescuer
My job is to assist all creatures
I was born with the need to fulfill their needs
I take in new family members without plan or forethought
I have bought dog food with my last dime
I have patted a mangy head with a bare hand
I have hugged someone vicious and afraid
I have fallen in love a thousand times
and I have cried into the fur of a lifeless body

I have "Animal Friends" and "friends who have animals"
I don't often use the word "pet"
I notice those lost at the road side
And my heart aches
I will hand raise a field mouse
And make friends with a vulture
I know of no creature unworthy of my time
 

We may be master of the animals,
But the animals have mastered themselves
Something people still haven't learned
 
War and abuse makes me hurt for the world
But a rescue that makes the news gives me hope for mankind
             

We are a quiet, but determined army
And we are making a difference ever day
  
There is nothing more necessary than warming an orphan
Nothing more rewarding than saving a life
No higher recognition than watching them thrive
There is no greater joy than seeing a puppy play
Who only days ago, was too weak to eat

I am an Animal Rescuer
My work is never done
My home is never quiet
My wallet is always empty
But my heart is always full!

In the game of life, I have already won!
