                                  MISSION STATEMENT

 

 

The mission of Animal Relief and Rescue Fellowship, an all-volunteer organization, is to provide responsible, humane care and treatment of animals from the city of Leland and the surrounding unincorporated county area.  Our goals to achieve this purpose are:

 

v     To provide medical treatment for all animals in our care that are sick or injured

v     To operate an adoption program which places all adoptable animals in responsible, loving homes

v     To make sure that all animals in our care are spayed or neutered before going into an adoptive home unless they are too young for the procedure  

v     To follow up with adoptive parents of unaltered puppies to make sure they are spayed or neutered at the appropriate time

v     To help facilitate a low cost spay and neuter program for area residents in need

v     To humanely euthanize, and only when necessary, those animals that are not deemed adoptable by a majority of Board Members.  Euthanasia will be performed according to the guidelines of the Humane Society of the United States

v     To educate people of all ages regarding the humane treatment of animals

v     To build a state-of-the-art animal shelter in an accessible location which will also serve as a model for other shelters to follow in handling lost, unwanted, neglected or abandoned animals.

v     To maintain a website on which pictures and information about animals ready for adoption are posted, including complimentary postings for area residents’ personal pets
