You Can't Quarantine Kindness

Coronavirus has changed our lives.

There are many unknowns now but one thing we do know is that when we unite around a common cause, we can make a real and lasting change.

As we continue to keep our physical distance, we can continue to stay connected socially as we work to take care of each other and our community.

Our goal at the rescue is to provide all we can to all of the animals that come to our attention.

It is by your generosity that we can change the world.

Thanks to your help we can continue our work to help more animals.

Each day we get calls of animals in need. RFSC would like to thank you for considering a donation to help support our rescue.

SPOTLIGHT ON: Climate Control

One of the most important things in caring for our dogs at the rescue is climate control.

We want to make sure they are comfortable by providing air conditioning for them in the hot summer months.

In the cold winder months they are kept cozy thanks to the heat provided

As you can imagine our Edison bill is high. We are looking into getting Solar. We have been given a few prices and options.

Custom Birdhouses

One of our volunteers, Jolinda, makes custom birdhouses and donates the proceeds of her sales to RFSC.

She makes each birdhouse individually from recycled items. Jolinda designs each birdhouse herself. Each birdhouse is special and unique.

Jolinda attends artist fairs such as the Fallbrook Avocado Festival and has an ETSY store called BirdHousesforTheDogs. She has sent birdhouses all over the United States.

She takes special orders and can include the customers own personal treasures on the birdhouses. Her customers are delighted to know that their purchase goes to help RFSC.

Jolinda and her husband have adopted several Golden Retrievers from RFSC. They currently have Otis who is 3 years old and Grace who is 6.
