Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate gratitude – when we stop to appreciate the things in our lives that we are thankful for. At North Shore Animal League America we are thankful for all of our loyal supporters and generous donors who continue to allow us to save the lives of hundreds of homeless animals each year.

Picture this; you’re a happy, healthy dog living with your beloved family. You enjoy going out for walks with your pet parents, lounging around the house with your canine siblings, and the sound of your food bowl being filled at dinner time makes your tail wag like the propeller on a Boeing 757 airliner.
In addition to our regular weekly life-saving rescues and transports, 39 dogs and puppies at risk of euthanasia were welcomed to North Shore Animal League America.
It’s that time of year again; kitten season. The time of year when unspayed cats give birth, flooding animal shelters and rescue groups across the nation with homeless litters with no place to call home. Millions of healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are euthanized each year in the United States because there simply are not enough homes for them all.
At North Shore Animal League America every life is valuable. As the world’s largest no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization we take pride in providing companion animals, who would otherwise have no other options, with a chance to live out their lives in responsible, loving homes.

Crammed inside these flimsy, rusted crates are terrified dogs fresh out of the nightmare that is living as a breeding machines in a cold, inhumane commercial breeding facility.
Imagine this: You're a dog. Okay, I know it’s not the easiest thing to fathom considering you don’t have four legs and most of us aren’t covered in fur. But, think about what it would be like to trek up and down the heavily forested mountains of Taiwan as a guide dog. Now, imagine the government closes the patrol station because of budget cuts, and you’re left stranded in severely harsh conditions with no food, no water and hardly any shelter.
