SAINT Animal Rescue is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Federal charity and licensed PACFA animal rescue.
We Are A No Kill Animal Rescue

SAINT Animal Rescue is a non-profit organization in the early stages of developing a protocol to help animals in Eastern El Paso County. The need for this organization is immense and extremely critical. The Pikes Peak Regional Humane Society (PPRHS) resources are stretched very thin when they assist the sheriff with the animal welfare cases in their "out of contract" area. With the help of the El Paso County Sheriff's office and the PPRHS, SAINT Animal Rescue would like to provide the services of our professional volunteers and support organizations to help fill in the gap. All the area in white on the map to the right is the "out of contract" area for the PPRHS (1456 sq miles/nearly 90,000 acres) for which SAINT is providing services. Visit the "How SAINT Began" link on the left to find out why this organization is so critical to help protect the animals of Eastern El Paso County against the problems of animal neglect and abuse.

"The Animal Barracks" was started by LTC Steve Alexander. We are hoping to reach a goal of $30,000 to build a shelter. SAINT Animal Rescue turns away hundreds of our local and other pets because we have no place to house them.
These little souls need a place to feel safe and loved while awaiting their next and hopefully forever home.
This transition time for pets is probably the most stressful. Most are scared, some starved or abused and neglected. It is SAINT Animal Rescues dream to have a wonderful, comfortable, loving place for them to be but we cannot do it without your help.
Thank you LTC Steve Alexander for all you have done! For all that you care! and for just being YOU!
Thank you all for caring!

Want to help but aren't sure how?
You can help by fostering! 

Helping pets in need doesn’t always mean donating money (although this is always appreciated too). Fostering an animal is also a very generous way to support our rescue organization and help animals get ready for their forever home.

You would be responsible for the fundamental daily care of your foster pet in your home. It would be your job to shower the foster animal with the love and attention they need to prepare them for adoption into their forever home. Our rescue will provide the proper food and transportation to appointments. 

When the foster animal is ready to meet the world once again we would pick the foster animal up from your home every Saturday morning to attend an adoption fair.  If the animal does not find their forever home that day they will be returned to your home.  We would continue to advertise in local newspapers and on our website to find them their home.  Often the animal finds their special family quickly but sometimes it takes a little longer.  All this is based on the individual needs of the animal.

Fostering an animal isn’t always the easiest thing to do.  It takes patience; we don’t know what their life was like before they came to us for help.  It is difficult to say goodbye when they are adopted but you must remember there is another sweet furry foster waiting around the corner for your help too.

If you are interested in helping, please give us a call at (719) 541-3099 or email us at jerry@saintanimalrescue.org with your questions. 

 

 

Abbie's Story
This is Abbie's story.  Abbie was 'dumped' on the eastern plains and lived there for 2 years before she decided that she would accept her present owner as "hers".  Abbie is now almost 4 years old.
Unfortunately, because of her abandonment issues Abbie has developed possessiveness. Abbie no longer accepts living in harmony with her Pug sister. The owner she has adopted developed a medical condition it has proven too difficult to keep Abbie. This is a tearful separation.
Abbie is not an apartment dog, she needs a secure fenced in yard to play.  Abbie also wants and needs to be in a one dog family, Abbie being the one dog.  She absolutely loves people just not other dogs giving attention to 'her' family.
Abbie is a Jack Russell Terrier and is up to date on all her shots and has been spayed and micro-chipped. She is extremely smart, trained well and a very, very special girl. She needs some one who understands her needs.
Treat little Abbie with love and kindness and she will be your forever friend.
If you are interested to meet Abbie please call SAINT Animal Rescue at (719) 541-3099 to set up an appointment for a meet and greet.
As always..Thank YOU for CARING!
Merlin's Story
This is a loving story about a rescue SAINT Animal Rescue did almost 2 years ago. Several dogs were rescued from a local Colorado puppy mill.  The groomers at Petco at Powers and Constitution in Colorado Springs, pooled their talents together along with tears and swelling hearts and groomed all the dogs rescued from this mill. One of those dogs was a small black and brown Pomeranian, which the groomers named House.  House found a loving family and found kindness and love.  His new family renamed him Merlin and here is his story.
Hi Jerry,
    I just wanted to inform you that I put Merlin (House), our special needs black and brown Pom, down this morning. He completely lost the use of his back legs again and he was just getting too weak to do anything for himself anymore. His vet was so kind to him and kinda teared up herself cause everyone in the office new Merlin. I've never had to put a dog down and this was one of the hardest decisions I have ever made. Merlin slept between Chase and me all night after I gave him some doggy aspirin to make him more comfy. He was put down in my arms and was smiling! Jerry, I want to thank you from the bottom of my broken heart for giving me the chance to take care of Merlin for a year and a half. He was my sunshine and snuggles every morning! No dog will ever come close to Merlin's goofy smile and courageous heart. Thank you again for Merlin. He is missed so much!
Sincerely,
Lisa F
Waiting to be groomed.                     Merlin with his new Mom!
Thank you Lisa and Chase for giving your hearts to little Merlin.
