PRESS RELEASE: Rocky Mountain Animal Rescue regrets to inform all of those who joined us in the fight for Woofer's life, that the City of Calgary bylaw has in fact euthanized Kellie Benkovsky's beloved pet Woofer on Tuesday April 24, 2012. It is with sad and heavy hearts we extend our love and thoughts to Kellie and her 2 year old daughter at this time. The emotional pain they are now suffering is unthinkable.

We are also actively seeking an Attorney to help us with this case. Anyone knowing of a lawyer who cares about animals and injustice, and would like to work on our team, please have them email us as soon as possible.
What we do is simple. We rescue animals from some of the most unforgiving places.
- Our Own Backyard: Abandoned dogs and cats suffer from starvation, lack of companionship and exposure to the extreme weather conditions of Calgary’s reservations and dumping areas every day. Learn more about Rez Dogs...
- The Notorious Dumping Ground Pits of Mexico: There is no such thing as a humane death in these pits, where dogs are either mauled to death due to starvation in crammed conditions, or electrocuted to death. Learn more about these dumping grounds and hoarders...
- Overcrowded Animal Shelters: Hundreds of dogs and cats are on death row simply because the shelters lack the resources to continue to provide proper care for them. Visit our Spay & Neuter Information page...
- Natural Disasters: When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, our team was there to rescue dogs who had been left behind.
But we could have never given so many dogs and cats a second chance without your support.
Our adopters, donors, fosterers and volunteers are the reason why - in 2011 alone - we were able to rescue over 350 dogs and cats. For that, we thank you!
Mia requires approximately $850 in dental work due to a serious infection in the gum line of her teeth: this is because her head was stuck in a container, leaving her unable to eat or drink and open to bacteria. Her teeth are in need of a cleaning, and two need to be pulled.
Your donations will be entered as a credit to Rocky Mountain Animal Rescue's account and applied to this upcoming procedure.
