Here is the rescue that we sponsor in June and December
http://www.birchhaven.org/Here is what they are about in their words:
We specialize in assisting Giant Canine Breeds & Equines & focus on the Special Needs(Deaf, Visually Impaired, Sick & Injured)
Giant Breed Definition: Deerhound, Great Dane, Great Pyr, Wolfhound, Mastiff, Newfoundland, & St. Bernard
Our area of assistance is across North America & our area of placement is mostly in Eastern Ontario
We provide a safe 'haven' for animals for life should they not be adopted or are deemed un-adoptable
We are a non-for-profit program and we are an all Volunteer organization without any salaried employees
Birch Haven Rescue and Rehabilitation Services; located in Eastern Ontario, Canada on 148 acres was founded in 1996 as a personal rescue to assist those Canine and Equine animals that have been abandoned, abused, neglected and otherwise mistreated by rescuing, fostering, rehabilitating and then placing them into their new and forever loving homes.
Birch Haven also tries to promote responsible pet ownership through Humane Education, Training, Socialization and Public Awareness. We are also involved in Therapy work.
We are very small, private and are committed to personal rescue plus re-homing that is completely financed by monetary gifts, owner surrender plus adoption fees as we do not any receive government, provincial or corporate funding. We are financed mainly out of our own pockets.
We also work very hard to assist various breeders, rescue groups, shelters, organizations and friends in placing rescues or re-homing animals that come into their hands. We only organize and facilitate in these situations.
