About Our Shelter Partners
Homeward Trails rescues animals from shelters, mostly in rural areas, that desperately need our help. These animal shelters lack money, volunteers and adequate facilities. While the staff and volunteers at these shelters do their best, the animals they care for often must live without heat during the winter and in less-than-desirable conditions throughout the year.
These animal shelters are also located in areas where pet overpopulation is a tremendous problem and adoptions are low. Spaying and neutering is simply not done enough and therefore, these shelters must take in and euthanize thousands of helpless dogs, cats, puppies and kittens every year – all because people are not sterilizing their animals. Many of the great animals we rescue were dumped on the highway, left in cardboard boxes, thrown from moving vehicles or simply left to wander outside.
Homeward Trails works closely with these animal shelters to rescue dogs and cats from euthanasia by transporting pets to the DC area and adopting them to loving homes in this region.
