Gargoyles Animal Rescue was established in 2011 upon taking on a very disturbing case of dog abuse, neglect, and the dog being subjected to rape/attack as a bait dog in the horrible, illegal, and immoral blood sport of dog fighting. It took two years to heal that dog physically. Her mental aptitude improves everyday, she is eager to learn, she is eager to make her human happy. Her honest good nature is being added upon so that she may make an excellent Therapy Dog, she could even become a Service Dog.
Before Gargoyles Animal Rescue, the rescuing efforts were addressed as Shadow Cat Rescue. Our main goal during that time was helping feral animals. We were part of a bigger effort in Montgomery, TX, that specializes in capturing feral cats, having their sexual reproduction altered, receive vaccinations and returned to the geographical area they were captured with a tipped ear.
Lifelong student of nature and all things animal, with almost fifty years experience in befriending animals, I feel quite qualified with my rescuing efforts. With on the job experience of working for three different vets throughout my life and working closely with every vet I have brought the animals to for medical care. Have lived and worked on operational Texas Longhorns, Quarter Horses, and Paint Horse Ranch. Experienced with many livestock species, human companion animals and some exotic animals.
Interested in establishing several programs to help the military personnel that are being deployed overseas with a support team that fosters their pets while they are away - to ease their mind and allow them to concentrate on their task at hand.
The lives of animals matter to Gargoyles Animal Rescue, not just those in our care but all over this great planet.
Gargoyles Animal Rescue has been supported by local businesses in the area we have been located in (Montgomery, TX, Greenville, SC, Landrum, SC), by like minded individuals, and communities near our locale. Listed as a Private Rescue, not a non profit at this time. It is in our long term plans to move to the state of Virginia, where we wish to establish Gargoyles Animal Rescue as a non-profit 501 (a),(b), or (c).
At present we are operating with the help of local rescues who have been donating feed to us. Some of our animals are available for adoption, some are with us as sanctuary (they are bonded to their human, or they are partnered with their human - Service Dog, Emotional Support Animal).
Most of the animals are in need of vaccinations, better quality food, preventatives, medicines, and mental stimuli (toys).
The rescuing operation would benefit the most by having its own home as we are living with friends temporarily, the other item we would be much appreciative of is a means of transportation. A SUV would serve our purpose most as it would contain transporting animals inside the vehicle and protected them from inclement weather.
