Rescued and Sick Animals Fund
AAS uses the donations given to it for spay/neuter programs for dogs, cats, and rabbits, and for our animal advocacy campaigns. But the most important use of the donations sent to AAS is for the rescue and rehabilitation of suffering dogs. That means vet, training, boarding and food bills to pay. We call these expenses our Rescued and Sick Animals Fund.
This is where most of our money goes. Real animal welfare — fixing, not killing — is expensive. Vets and behaviour rehabilitation is what AAS is known for.
Here are the stories of a very few of the animals that donations to us have helped:
$658.00
Giving Judith a year and a half of love, kindness, warmth, and fun.
$2400
We'll keep paying for Choklit until her future happiness is assured.
Over $3000
Maddie and her pups: vet care, shots, food, board, spaying.
$1780.00
Shorty - his ears almost froze off, but he was rescued...
$545.00
Finnegan - another old dog dumped at an SPCA and labeled "unadoptable". AAS bought him, got him all fixed up at the vet and found him a home.
$2919.57
Patches - the rat poison dog.
$758.00
Willow - run over by her "family" who would rather kill her than pay to fix their pup.

Cassie - a chained breeding machine, her muzzle wired shut.
$267.00
Angelo - the dog no one wanted, starving to death. AAS made sure that didn't happen to him.

$912.00
Giving Betsey a chance for some love at last.

The price to give Braille the unconditional love he was denied by his first "owners". His life had great meaning to us all.

$446.00
Daisy - from an SPCA. Mange so bad she was almost bald.
