    From Where & Who Does The Foundation Accept Rescues?

    Many of our area shelters lack the resources and funds to repair animals with treatable, curable, and often minor medical conditions. When this happens, these animals are often deemed unadoptable and face euthanization. The S. Ford Foundation focuses our efforts on being the last resort for these savable and deserving creatures.

    We accept our rescued pets from San Diego area Shelters and Animal Control via designated contacts with those organizations. In addition, our veterinarian volunteers visit shelters in specific search for loving, adoptable animals that need medical treatment to spare them from euthanization.

    All animals must be admitted through a San Diego County Animal Shelter. No owner relinquished or “found” or stray animals will be accepted. Preferential consideration will be given to animals whose exit has been requested by a San Diego County Animal Shelter.

  • Rescue Updates: Hennessy

    Hennessy was hit by a car and never claimed by his owner at the shelter. He was scheduled to be euthanized because he needed orthopedic surgery on his fractured hind leg. On the day he was scheduled to be put to sleep, he was taken out of the shelter and brought to The Foundation for the orthopedic surgery he needed. We contacted Lisa and Kirk Redfern who are long time supporters of The Foundation, knowing they would be the perfect parents for him. Read Full Post »

  • Rescue Updates: Zach

    Zach was only 7 weeks old when came to The S. Ford Foundation. He came into the Emergency Hospital because he was vomiting. The Veterinarian examined him and discovered that the vomiting was caused by a birth defect called a Vascular Ring Anomaly. This defect occurs when blood vessels don’t develop properly before birth. These blood vessels wind around the puppy’s esophagus and create a “bottle neck” that is too small for food to pass through. Read Full Post »
