Who we are...

My name is Eric, and I focus on the Northeast US. My rescuing started 13 years ago with my Spud, who was at a kill shelter in Upstate NY. Since then, I have expanded my rescuing to pups as far away as Louisiana, and placements as varied as California and Nova Scotia. My highest concern is the welfare of the pup involved in an adoption. I take a lot of pride in what I am, and nothing makes me happier than seeing these loves thrive in their forever homes. All I do is in memory of those awaiting me in the next life, both human and dog alike.

I am the proud guardian-owner of Spud, Precious, Thor and Elvis - all rescues. Precious was left in the back yard by her prior "owners" when they moved from their home -- some wonderful neighbors fed Preccie until her rescue. She has undergone heartworm treatment since I adopted her, and is now a regular princess.

I love to take pictures -- I have since I was a kid. With the advent of high-quality digital photographs, I am able to document my rescue operations at a reasonable cost. Excellent pictures help save dogs' lives, especially with Petfinder. I often receive inquiries about posted dogs with the prospect saying, "When I saw the picture, it was love at first site" -- that makes it all worth it. The site may take a little longer to load than others, but I believe in high picture quality and that it's worth the wait.
