UCA Community Sponsors Dog Shelters for Inundated Rescue

UCA Community Sponsors Dog Shelters for Inundated Rescue

Economic issues across the nation have resulted in a reduction in the number of families adopting dogs as they simply cannot afford to adequately care for them. This has created an overflow of unwanted dogs in many communities. In spite of a great track record in rescuing, nurturing, and rehoming, UCA learned of one large dog rescue overwhelmed by the number of dogs coming to them as well as a decline in adoptions.  Even though they have two facilities to care for the dogs, they do not have enough dog shelters to keep the overflow of dogs protected in the colder weather. The UCA community provided emergency funding as well as winter dog shelters so that the dogs would have adequate care and shelter during their stay at the rescue.
