For the love of the breed
TRULY
![]() So today I searched the web for ideas about what I might like my rescue to be like. I had a few Ideas but nothing solid. Would I try to go basic have a few kennels and do what I could to help a few animals? Or would I go all out? More research on my behalf needs to be done on the nonprofit end. But if I were to go all out I really liked a lot of what this place has done/ accomplished. Motley Zoo (MZ) is a rescue in Redmond WA has a very nice website very easy to navigate. They have links to everything they offer and links to solutions for what they do not. Their donate button stands out on every page as well as the buttons for MZ’s Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and YouTube accounts. They have a brick and mortar doggie daycare, they also offer training. They call themselves a rescue but they do not take in strays and need advance notice to set up fostering for surrendered animals. Their website says that they do not have open kennels or anywhere to hold a dog overnight and suggests strays be brought to humane society or veterinary clinic. They do not want to deal with the regulations that follow having permits to have a drop-in shelter or take in strays. They are listed as a nonprofit and have been successful at placing many animals. From the looks of the website and facility it looks very “for profit”. Unless maybe the daycare runs as a different entity. In the end, still a nice place seems very organized and are doing their part in finding homes for dogs and cats. http://motleyzoo.org/ The next rescue I reviewed was Emerald City Pet Rescue (ECPR) in Seattle. This looks a little friendlier maybe not so commercial. Their website is fairly easy to navigate but not quite as organized as MZ’s site. They do have a retail store as well as online sales of pet products and logo wear. They focus on saving animals from high kill shelters. They are activists for all animals, domestic and wild. ECPR fosters, trains, rehabilitates, and finds homes for “animals” in need. They seem very active in the community with presence at many community events and collaborating with other shelters and resources. ECPR seems more like an actual rescue. http://emeraldcitypetrescue.org/index.html
