A message from the Founder - "The real quality of life is based on the good and the bad that we contribute, the sincerity and the longevity of each and every task we perform.  If we are able to carry each of the above, our happiness is complete. Helping out animals is unconditional, and is deeply dependent on the strength of the GOOD that we have in ourselves. A fake smile is easily accomplished by anyone! The real value is in what is behind that smile! An animal has a serious face, at all times, is focused, dilligent in their behaviour and actions, and almost predictable at all times. They are worth saving, and not all humans are capable of permanently saving a precious life. The ones that contribute, sincerely, are happy and complete individuals. These are the individuals we want as part of our TEAM!!!"

Lake Zurich Highschool Students making a big difference on 5/23/09, for our saved dogs.
The dogs were walked, exercised, bathed and given the much needed attention they did not receive in their entire life! Rooms were cleaned, windows, crates and the entire adoption center glowed with happy faces!
