BARK — Bandit's Adoption and Rescue of K-9's

Duke was brought to a local pound by a citizen after he limped onto their property on a few days before. Duke’s teeth are pearly white — telling us that he’s a young boy — although his skin condition, hair loss, ripped ears, scars and thin body leads us to believe he’s suffered from long term neglect. Duke needs surgery but is very weak and can barely walk on his three good legs. We are trying to get his surgery completed as soon as he gains a bit of weight and strength. We know that Duke can make a full recovery and find a loving home where he gets to play and be a YOUNG, pampered pet. If you would like to help Duke become the vibrant boy he deserves to be, please make a donation to the Hope Fund. 100% of your donation will go directly towards Duke’s medical costs.

The HOPE Fund

In February of 2007, BARK founded The HOPE Fund. Little Hope was a 6-month old puppy who had been abused by a man for her entire life. Even after all the little dog had been through, she still licked any human hand that offered her love and kindness. Unfortunately, the abuse that she suffered prior to coming to BARK was too much for her and she passed away quietly and peacefully while under veterinary care. To read her story and see photos of how Hope came to us, please click here. (please note: this link has music)

We all loved HOPE and honor her courage and memory through The HOPE Fund. BARK has hope for all the dogs in the world. Not only does BARK rescue dogs in danger of being euthanized, we also use donations to help dogs like little Hope. Many, many dogs recover fully from truly horrible beginnings and go on to find loving homes and live long, wonderful lives.

Please consider making a donation to help a dog start a new life. Donations to The HOPE Fund will be used to help dogs with specific & extensive needs. One of the dogs who needs help from the HOPE Fund is featured on the left. To make a direct donation to help this great dog, please see the options below.
