Betsy's Fund

Here at PARL, we believe that every pet’s life has value. Whether they come to us young or old, friendly or shy, healthy or sick-- they all deserve a good home. Sometimes animals are brought to us that that require critical medical care out of the scope of our daily resources. In response, we launched the Betsy’s Fund. This fund was created to provide medical care and surgery to adoptable animals that need extra care. This may include medications, surgery, and treatment that would otherwise be outside of the scope of regular medical care provided in an animal shelter.

Betsy's tale of triumph

Backyard breeders brought Betsy to us at two weeks old with a crushed front leg. They wanted us to put her to sleep because they couldn’t make any money from a crippled dog. Rather than put her to sleep, and with the owner’s permission, our animal welfare staff dedicated themselves to saving little Betsy. Her front paw could not be saved, but Betsy adjusted just fine and went on to live a happy, well adjusted life!

By giving to Betsy’s Fund you have the opportunity to help give a second chance to hundreds of dogs and cats who require medical care, surgery and other treatment before they can be adopted.

Give to Betsy's Fund Today.

Whether it's $25, $50, $100 or more, each gift large or small makes a difference in the life of a homeless animal.
