OUR MISSION... To be a resource for animal shelters who are in need of saving a dog from being euthanized or when shelters are overcrowded. We are a non-profit 501(c)3 placement organization based in Seattle, WA. We are not a shelter, nor do we have a facility. Our organization is foster-based and we have a team of fosters throughout Western Washington. FurKidz is dedicated to the rehabilitation and placement of dogs so they may find their forever home. We have met the most wonderful dogs coming through our organization - all they needed was a second chance. We do need your help - we need more fosters. Fosters are THE BACKBONE of our organization. The more people who can open up their homes to fostering, the more lives we can save. It is absolutely rewarding! Thank you for your support and keep spreading the word about us! --The FurKidz 911 Team |

NEWS & UPDATES Visit our blog for news and updates www.furkidz911.wordpress.com April 18, 2010 We had a fun time at the Petco adoption event in Marysville yesterday. Pumpkin, Bena and Shier were adopted and Dexter (Moon's pup) was pre-adopted. Although our fosters were sad to see their foster dog move on, we were all happy they found their forever home and now have a chance for a normal life. Thanx to Don, Tory, Colleen, Liz and Sharon for staffing the event and to Karie & Paul who brought Skye down from Sedro Wooley (it was nice to see Kaya too!). There were alot of people yesterday, more than we were used to, so having them available was a blessing. We do have four of Moon's pups available for pre-adoption. Skye, an 11-week old Aussie mix is also available for adoption. We will post them (as well as some other ready to adopt dogs) on Petfinder soon (Colleen took some photos of the dogs at yesterday's event for our Petfinder site). ~Maria April 4, 2010 A very special THANK YOU to Katherine Turner for creating spectacular videos for our rescue (see above). We will post two others in the next few days of Bailey and Kaylee. We had a great time working with her and appreciate all the time she spent with us, show casing our dogs and the King County Animal Shelter. March 28, 2010 We would like to extend a HUGE thank you to those who have donated towards our upcoming fundraisers with an extra special thanks to Steve Nemchik and his family. Steve and his brother recently inherited a family member’s estate and have donated all of the household items to FurKidz to sell in our garage sale, and a few antique items that will be saved for our upcoming silent auction. It has been a wonderful treasure hunt of vintage furniture, clothing, toys, etc. from the 1950’s on. Everything is in new or close to new shape. We will try to get some pictures posted of the items we have available. We owe our success to our fosters and all the people who have made donations of all types. This recent rescue project has been much larger than we would have ever imagined, but it has opened up so many wonderful opportunities for our rescue. We’re slowly starting to grow up and couldn’t do it without everyone’s help! Thank you! March 24, 2010 We currently have 29 dogs from the Harney County Hoarding case in our rescue, with several more on the way from Mama Hannah (who is close to delivering). Please continue to read our blog (see link above) for information on the dogs we have rescued from that area. We are also in need of more fosters, our current fosters are overbooked and would really appreciate some relief. Contact us if you can help. Thank you. February 24, 2010 We created a Blog to share our experiences, thoughts, and photos. Click on the OUR BLOG tab above or go directly to this link: http://furkidz911.wordpress.com/ to follow the Oregon dogs progress. February 23, 2010 It's been two days since the dogs arrival and we are all working diligently to make them comfortable. A web page for the Oregon dogs will be up soon - it has been extremely busy and exhausting, but definitely worth all the effort. More updates and photos coming soon. One of our fosters, Cassi, has started a journal where she is posting her two dogs' daily progress. Check it out at: http://furkidsfoster.wordpress.com/ February 21, 2010 The Oregon dogs are coming in today, 11 total will be in our rescue. Stay tuned for pictures and information. February 10, 2010 There are about 30 dogs remaining at the Princeton property in Burns, Oregon (see article links below). They will need to be rescued by March 15th or they will be euthanized. |
