Emily's Friends - Farmington Pet Shelter

Emily's Friends

Emily's Friends Rescue Group is a 501c3, registered non-profit organization, dedicated to rescuing homeless companion animals. We particularly try and take in dogs from high-kill shelters, assist owners who can no longer care for their animals as well as animals in abusive or neglectful situations. All animals are spayed or neutered and brought up-to-date on shots before being placed in their new homes. We support and promote spaying and neutering of all cats and dogs to help control the pet overpopulation and promote education of the public about responsible pet ownership. Working with loyal volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians, trainers, and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue hundreds of animals each year. We provide them with food, nurture, love and medical attention while they are in our temporary care. We then find them well-matched, carefully screened forever homes.
