02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Our mission is provide a loving, kind and family home environment and tailored, compassionate, kind and dignified palliative and end-of-life care to abandoned, unwanted, and often previously unloved and abused, elderly, sick or terminally ill companion and farmed animals, and life long care for farmed animals and sanctuary dogs. We love every one of them deeply and they are our entire lives, and we live by the words, Love Changes Everything. We provide the safety, warm homes, food, and everything they need so that their inner puppies (or chicks) can come alive, and show the world who they really are, and spread their happiness in a world that desperately needs more joy.
