Donations
In order to continue rescuing animals and caring for them while they wait for their forever family to find them, Tuff Start Rescue relies not only on our foster families but also on donations. Many of our rescue pets require special surgeries, medications, or are on special diets which can get expensive.

If fostering or adopting is not an option for you and you would like to donate to the clinic, please contact us to find out if there are specific foods or other needs or see our list of current specific needs. You can also send monetary donations to
