From Smiley Tails Rescue
Smiley Tails Rescue es una organización 501(c)(3) sin fines de lucro fundada en 2019 por tres locas de los perros que comparten la misma pasión y visión para acabar con el problema de los animales sin hogar en el sur de California. Reubicamos a perros de todas las edades y razas en refugios con muchas muertes y situaciones de alto riesgo. Tenemos un estricto proceso de selección que implica solicitudes exhaustivas, entrevistas y controles del hogar. Smiley Tails se basa en hogares de acogida, está gestionado por voluntarios y financiado por donantes. Todas las donaciones se destinan a esterilización/castración, vacunas, microchips, atención y capacitación veterinaria y quirúrgica. Ofrecemos adopciones basadas en citas además de nuestros eventos de adopción mensuales. Nuestra visión es Limpiar los Refugios hasta que no quede ningún animal sin un hogar al que llamar suyo.
