More than 60 homeless dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens were rescued from shelters in Louisiana and Texas in the wake of Hurricane Laura and brought to safety at Animal League America’s Port Washington, NY campus.
Animal League America responded to the COVID-19 health crisis by instituting social distancing, requiring staff and adopters to wear masks on the campus, processing adoption applications via zoom and phone, and conducting adoptions by appointment only. The Pet Health Centers used a drive-up service to drop off sick pets to see the veterinarians.
Animal League America collaborated with National Mill Dog Rescue to save more than 100 dogs and puppies from horrific puppy mills, and brought them to our campus, where we found them responsible, loving homes.
More than 50 animals are rescued from the hurricane’s track and possible euthanasia and brought back to our Port Washington, NY campus.
