Who We Are
Our Motto - "Helping Families, One Pet at a Time"
Our mission is three fold. Our organization is a non-profit organization founded on the principle that as people enter the last stages of their lives their companion pets are very dear to them. We believe that all families should be able to have their companions until the very end whether they are in long term care facilities or hospice. We also act as a rescue organization, providing help for animals that have been abandoned, abused, and unwanted. The third aspect of the foundation is education for the community, teaching young and old alike the importance of caring for our animals and the impact such actions can have on society. In short, we are here for "Those Left Behind."

Therapy Pets for Children and Adults in Medical Facilities
Many clinical studies have shown that visitation by therapy animals in medical settings helps raise the spirits of those enduring long term medical care. Whether they are children or adults, the touch of an animal can relieve boredom and depression. We want to bring the love and compassion of pets to those patients who are undergoing, long term care placement, chemotherapy, cardiac restriction, and long term rehabilitation. Our handlers are there to offer their services as someone to just listen, visit, and offer companionship.

Feb. 2, 1012: A GREAT REUNION STORY WORTH SHARING
Great news today. A person called and had found two small dogs running. I told him to take them to West Charleston Animal Hospital to be scanned and checked and if no one claimed them we would take them in. One of them was Coco who was stolen from her family's yard 18 months ago the family never gave up hope. Techs and owners were all crying when the family was reunited.

There has been a hoarding situation in Hawthorn. A group of us are going up tonight and returning tomorrow with dogs and pups. Anyone out there that can foster please email us ASAP at rae@tlbfoundation.org. Almost all are shepherd mixes and rottie mixes please let us know if you can help.

Update on Mamma, Dan with Animal Control went out this morning. The food in the trap was gone and trap was sprung and no Mamma. She is gone and all the dogs that were hanging around are gone. So they had been trapping for 2 to 3 weeks and until pups were gone they stayed around. Getting the pups out was really the best thing. We will keep you updated and we are looking for the Mina site so all can keep up with what is going on up there. Thanks again to everyone.
Update on puppies just one more bit of news. The vet said one of the 8 pups is older than the rest so the only thing we can think is when Mamma went out for food or perhaps the pup wandered close Mamma took her in she is about 2 weeks older than the rest. We just thought she was a piggy but she is twice the size of the others. So Mamma you slipped our hands but we have to think you know better than we mere humans what you are doing and wish you luck perhaps she is happier out there caring for the young she finds.
