Dogs Like Una
At Home for Life®, we have witnessed that transformation firsthand in animals like Una. His story shows how compassion and creativity can turn cruelty into renewal. Una was born a street dog. At just six months old, he was shot in the face in his home country - veterinarians tried to repair his wound but his injuries just became worse. After reaching Home For Life, Una received care and has become a thriving part of our community. Una’s story proves that compassion and creativity break the cycle of cruelty and indifference to restore a shattered life. Each act of care sets in motion a future that would never otherwise exist. We have seen dogs and cats, once so frightened that they flinch from a touch, learn to trust again; and animals once disfigured by violence discover a new life filled with peace and joy.
Building a Humane Future
Your Give to the Max donation goes to expanding our care, with support for our new shelter building.
Our new building is an extension and expression of the values Home for Life embodies- that of compassion and creativity with which we we approach helping animals. Animal rescue is not often thought of as creative, but our Third Door model calls for it- to stand in the gap when it could go either way for a a vulnerable cat or dog, and because of the power to care, to envision and create a positive outcome.
This new building will amplify our power to care, aligning our values of creativity and compassion with action to do more good for animals and the people who care about them.
