NO DOG LEFT BEHIND
Happy Tails Happy Homes is a nonprofit animal welfare organization dedicated to protecting and serving the well-being of animals and fostering positive relationships between people and animals. We are an at-home foster program—no shelters, no offices, and no paid staff. All of the money donated goes directly to our animals. We specialize in saving the underdogs, those with medical or behavioral challenges that need additional support and a second chance.

Parker
Parker was hit by a car and left on the side of the road. His pelvis was broken and he needed lots of veterinary care. He was going to be medically euthanized unless a rescue stepped up. Happy Tails Happy Homes welcomed him into the rescue and he now lives with one of our fosters. He loves the beach, snow, and cuddles most of all.

Lainey Adopted 2022
Lainey is little bark and no bite! A destroyer of soft toys and a fetcher of frisbees. Her favorite activity is blazing the trail ahead in the mountains, and always comes when dad calls. A puppy who is eager to learn and motivated by delicious kibble. Couldn’t ask for a better adventure pal!
