WHY NOW? LIBR founder Laurette Richin says, “It is the height of the Holiday Abandonment Season — when people leave puppies, injured and senior dogs to attend this year’s parties or go on vacation. Also, when they are forced to surrender them because of expensive health costs and other circumstances that make it impossible for them to keep their dogs — LIBR responds NOW.”
Whether abandoned as impulsively as they are purchased, or surrendered by heartbroken families, these loving dogs face imminent death. LIBR can only save as many as they can afford to help, heal and home.
