Claire’s Journey of Survival and
Second Chances
Every rescue story shines brighter during the holiday season, a time for hope, love, and second chances — and Claire’s journey is no exception. This brave 2-year-old Chihuahua mix, along with her four young puppies, embodies the spirit of the season. Saved from the brink of tragedy, Claire and her pups were given the gift of life through the compassionate collaboration of our shelter partner, Friends of Jefferson Animals, and the unwavering dedication of our Mobile Rescue Team.

A Moment in Time
Celebrating 80 Years Leading the No-Kill Community
2024: Wrapping Up A Year of Celebration
As 2024 comes to a close, we end a year that has filled our hearts with gratitude and hope: 80 years of Rescue, Nurture, Adopt, and Educate. What began as a small shelter on the north shore of Long Island, has grown into the world’s largest and longest running no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization. Over the decades, we’ve saved more than 1.2 million lives, transforming the futures of animals across the globe. Today, that small shelter has grown exponentially, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and fueled by a dedicated team honoring the commitment started in 1944. As we honor the past, we also look to the future, determined to continue building on this incredible legacy for generations to come.
