Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League keeps growing because of you thank you for your continued support! Because of compassionate people like you, 2016 saw more animals served than ever in our 91 year history. Adoptions Animals seem to know when they are being adopted dogs eyes light up and their tails wag Pawlomino Adopted: 2/6/16 happily. Cats get excited too, but they are just much cooler about it until they can t be coy any longer, and snuggle up to your shoulder or wrap around your leg with a purr! Placing animals in loving homes is the essence of what we do. It s what we all want for every pet that comes through our doors to be well cared for by someone who loves them. 5,781 pets were placed in new homes in 2016 a record-breaking year. Darwin Adopted: 4/5/16 Our beautiful cover cat was one of 334 animals adopted at the 2016 Countdown 2 Zero event in September.

Our veterinarians discovered that a massive herniated disc was squeezing her spinal cord. Thanks to Olivia s Fund dedicated to saving the lives of animals through special surgical and medical treatments Tita is no longer paralyzed. She is a great little girl with her tail always wagging. OJ, a beautiful 9 month old kitten, came to us with a severely mangled right front leg. We couldn t save his leg, but fortunately we did save his life.

Top Stories of 2016 This is Dolly Dolly s Dream is a project to encourage the adoption of Square Head dogs (usually mislabeled as Pit Bulls) and to counter unfortunate myths and stereotypes.

In her honor, Dolly s Dream gives dogs like her a second chance at life and the type of home every dog deserves.

Often, these behaviors are not permanent an animal (and its humans) can be coached, and that s what the League s 7-person Behavior Team aims to do.

Additionally, every pet that arrives at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is evaluated by our team.

Cats and dogs receive special socialization interventions from staff and volunteers if needed.

6 Top Stories of 2016 This is Dolly Dolly s Dream is a project to encourage the adoption of Square Head dogs (usually mislabeled as Pit Bulls) and to counter unfortunate myths and stereotypes. Dolly is a Square Head who opened the heart of the man who adopted her and taught him how loving, sweet, and gentle these dogs can be. In her honor, Dolly s Dream gives dogs like her a second chance at life and the type of home every dog deserves. Behavior Jumping on people, eating the furniture, not using a litter box, even being too shy these and many other behaviors number among reasons families will surrender a pet to a shelter. Often, these behaviors are not permanent an animal (and its humans) can be coached, and that s what the League s 7-person Behavior Team aims to do. Group classes addressing common obedience issues are offered once a week at Peggy Adams to the public free of charge. Affordable specialized group classes also are available. Additionally, every pet that arrives at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is evaluated by our team. Whenever possible, if a shelter pet requires a coaching plan, one is put into place so that families adopting that cat or dog can count on an animal suited to their lifestyle. Cats and dogs receive special socialization interventions from staff and volunteers if needed. Dogs not only have individualized plans, but they also enjoy daily playgroups designed not only for good fun and exercise, but also teaching them how to interact with other dogs, making them even more adoptable. Lastly, our Behavior Team fosters special enrichment exercises and toys for the animals in shelter, lessening boredom and increasing their adaptability. Cagney is a Dolly s Dream success! Thanks to foundation funding for Dolly s Dream dogs, their adoption fees are waived and the new family receives ID tags, collar, harness, leash, training crate, dog bed, training treat bag, food and water bowl, and seven months of free pet insurance. 5 Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League PeggyAdams.org

7 Launched in 2014, Countdown 2 Zero is a publicprivate partnership between Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control, and the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners. As part of our Countdown 2 Zero efforts, the League regularly transfers animals from Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control into our care. Often, these are animals with medical problems that require the kind of care the country-run shelter can t afford to provide. Dogs like Chewie with a profound case of demodectic mange, Sammy who was hit by a car, Hannah who had a bladder stone the size of a bar of soap, and Henry who nearly starved to death were saved through the cooperative efforts of the Countdown 2 Zero member agencies. Our Critical Areas of Focus: High Volume, Affordable Spay/Neuter Proactive Lost & Found TNVR (Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return) Medical & Behavior Programs Proactive & Efficient Adoptions Rescue Networks Foster Care Keeping Pets & People Together Volunteers Community Outreach & Involvement Advocacy Hannah Sammy Thanks to the 2016 Countdown 2 Zero adoption event, 334 animals have new, loving homes. More than 30 Palm Beach County animal rescue organizations and shelters participated and share this common goal of saving the lives of every adoptable animal in our community. It s exactly what Countdown 2 Zero is all about adopting from a local shelter when looking for a new pet. Chewie Henry In the three years since Countdown 2 Zero was launched, the euthanasia rate for adoptable pets in Palm Beach County has dropped 61%! Annual Report
