If you could have a rescue, what kind would it be?

Everything and anything, young, old, sick, all animal rescue is my dream.

Same here. I couldn't turn anyone away, so there'd be no need to set myself as a certain breed rescue. I'd probably have more seniors than most, though. I have a real soft spot for homeless seniors.

GSDs and especially would like to have a "retirement home" for the unwanted senior GSDs.

Birds, rodents, and reptiles.

That's a neat idea!

Herding dog rescue (BCs, Kelpies, Koolies, ACDs etc), but i would not turn away any animal.

We have quite a problem with unwanted working dogs in our area .

I also agree, a whole rescue about saving them and educating people on the misunderstood breeds.

I would start an recuse that took in Seniors, Special Needs, and Pregnant dogs.

I'd love to open a rescue one day. I've already told my husband if he hits it big and we start rolling in money, I will. It would be a non-profit animal sanctuary, on a huge piece of land with plenty of room for the animals to coexist without feeling like they're right on top of each other. I'd welcome all animals that got a rough break in life - dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. They would stay in comfortable, temperature-controlled cages with comfortable beds and good food to eat. Anyone working for me would have to feel exactly the same way as I do about animals - anything less is unacceptable. I think I'd call my rescue "Second Chances" or something like that.

I would like to make the older cat & dogs comfortable in their final years. Cushy places to sleep, warm when it's cold and cool when it's hot, medicine as needed, lots of touches and a little help when it's time to go painlessly to the Rainbow Bridge.

I rescued Samson the dog at the age of 12 (according to the vet) , and Dale the cat is 15. I've fostered several other older animals that no one seems to want. They deserve better.

If I had the money & time of boy...
I think I would have everything, but really concentrate on dogs & ferrets.

I'd look for a vast aray of animals, some that would be "perfect" but can not find a home & are on death row, some that would have special needs (physical, mental & health).

Not to sound rude, but I would not take in VERY VERY old animals or ones w/ medical problems so bad that they really can not enjoy life even w/ treatment. I would opt to have them PTS. It is a hard choice but there are just so many good animals out there being PTS.

I would probably stay aways from puppies although I would take in pregnant dogs. I doubt I would have to worry about that too much as puppies are adopted out so fast anyways.
