Local Virginia Beach rescue organization is all about the dogs

There are numerous shelters, humane societies, and other organizations throughout the Hampton Roads area that are working hard to save the lives of animals in need of rescue and adoption. One local rescue organization, K-9 New Life, located in Virginia Beach, is going the extra mile to advocate for and save shelter dog’s lives; they are a no-kill rescue organization. No-kill shelters and rescues are less common than regular shelters simply due to the cost of keeping these animals permanently until they can find a home.

The mission of K-9 New Life is to “take in dogs from shelters when they have run out of time or are injured or too sick for the shelters to handle”. K-9 New Life then provides these dogs with the help they need (rehabilitation, medicine, and a foster family) until they can be placed in a home for good. This rescue organization is a non-profit one, and they also take part in many activities and events that go on in the Hampton Roads area. K-9 New Life also showcases their dogs every first and third Sunday from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Virginia Beach Town Center. This is a great opportunity for potential adopters to come by and check out these great dogs.

For all of you dog lovers and dog advocates out there, there are plenty of ways that you can get involved and help out K-9 New Life. Some ways in which you can help include donations, sponsoring a dog, and/or becoming a foster parent. To learn more about this local rescue organization please visit their website here: K-9 New Life
