Our Mission is Hope from Despair

---

is a small private 501.c3 organization devoted to the  care, socialization and training of at-risk dogs. Safe Haven Rescue Kennel (Safe Haven) is the facility devoted to each dog as an individual, focusing on a peaceful healthy environment for them.

Safe Haven's goal is to enable “unadoptable” or hard to place dogs in learning how to play, socialize and mend from their broken behavioral past, all within their own time frame, regardless of placement prospects.  Even the long term or permanent-placement residents enjoy the freedom of a fun and interactive lifestyle.

We believe our dogs regardless of age or behavior should thrive and enjoy a healthy life as though they were in a normal home environment and not homeless.  Regardless of finding a home outside of Safe Haven all our dogs are treated as cherished family companions and live in a home environment as best as we can provide them. Due to the nature of niche rescue efforts, some of our dogs are considered less likely to be companion pets due to their unsocial nature, lack of human bonding, severe behavioral issues or medical needs. We provide each dog with the opportunity to trust, heal and start a new life as they are guided through opportunities to thrive again, allowing each dog to reach their highest potential.  

Our  Focus is rescue, repair, rehabilitation, education and re-homing.  Our Vision endeavors to give a comfortable place for decompressing and healing in a spacious healthy environment. Our Goal is to help the "unadoptable” or hard to place dogs in becoming better dogs than they arrived.
