MISCONCEPTIONS
The most common misconception
about dogs that are up for adoption is that they are
unwanted: crazy, sick or old... There are many reasons
that dogs or cats lose their homes. And most of them
are not the animal's fault. In fact, it's usually
the owner's failure to obedience train or deal with
life changes. Some of these changes might include
changes in a work schedule, lifestyle, a new baby
comes home, relocating to a place where pets aren't
allowed, allergies, prospective spouse doesn't like
pets; among others.
Ex-owners had unrealistic
expectations of pet ownership. Please help us re-home
these dogs or visit your local shelters to find out
how you can help others.

He’s a very handsome boy with eyes that will melt
your heart, and once he gets to know you, he will make
a very loving and protective companion. He loves to have
his belly rubbed! Given his size, he should go to a home
without small children, and to either
a large apartment near a park, or a house with a yard.

all of his shots, and is neutered and microchipped. |

"Dogs are our link to
paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent.
To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon
is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not
boring-- it was peace." ~ Milan Kundera

Earth Angels is a 501(c)(3)
non-profit canine rescue and adoption organization
established five years ago to rescue
homeless and abandoned dogs from the New York City
streets. 90% of the dogs we rescue are from the South
Bronx. Earth Angels was founded by Emelinda
Narvaez, a New Yorker with a big heart, determined
to make a difference in the lives of the many mistreated
dogs she witnessed. Driven by compassion and a deep
love for our four legged friends, Emelinda has been
rescuing dogs for over 41 years.
EARTH ANGELS IS A NO-KILL RESCUE GROUP.
Earth Angels welcomes animals that others write off
as too sick, too old, too ugly, or too unmanageable
. We spay/neuter, vaccinate, de-worm, and micro-chip
all our dogs as well as providing medical attention
when needed. We rehabilitate our dogs by using behavioral
training and giving them lots of love to restore their
faith in human beings. To date, we have rescued over
5,000 dogs and placed them in loving and responsible
homes. And, with your kind help, we will do
more.

Each day, healthy and
well-behaved dogs and cats are unfairly abandoned due
to their owner's failure to uphold their responsibility.
So, if you're thinking of making an addition to your
family, please visit your local shelter, rescue organization,
humane society or or veterinarian to find companion
animals in need of a loving family. With the popularity
of buying puppies over the internet, new problems are
also rising. A responsible breeder would not sell her
puppies to strangers and ship them. Please meet your
breeder in person and observe the surroundings. You
can also find a breed-specific rescue group near you. |

<< Glenny and Chelsea
"I rescued beautiful Chelsea from
Mid Atlantic English Springer Rescue this past September.
At 14 years old, the only family she ever knew dropped
her off at the vet for her to be euthanized because
they were getting a divorce and neither wanted to take
her.
I read the posting on the website
with horror and decided to bring this little girl into
our home so that we could spoil her to pieces! While
making travel arrangements to get Chelsea to us from
her foster home some 5 hours away, a very generous volunteer
of the MAESSR
organization volunteered to fly Chelsea to us on his
private plane.
Chelsea seemed sad and depressed when
she came to us, but now is the light of our lives. She
gets plenty of love and attention, ear and belly rubs.
We've been able to put a little meat on her bones that
was likely lost due to worrying about the dreadful turns
her life almost took. She is living the life of Riley
and we are lucky to have her in our home and our lives!
Everyone is invited to a big party at our house on May
3rd when Chelsea will turn 15 years old!" |

<< Rissy and Janell
"Rissy became a resident of an
animal shelter when she was picked up as a stray. Six
weeks went by and it became clear that the person she
belonged to did not care to have her back. I arranged
a meeting between my husband and Rissy and she did not
let me down. Her sweet personality and clownish antics
won his heart and we took her home. Rissy is the most
awesome dog. She quickly learned to do agility, flyball,
rally-o, and we are currently learning freestyle and
clicker. We spend many hours walking in the woods and
she also goes kayaking with me, swimming along side
the boat. I cannot imagine my life without her...she
is truly a blessing!" |

<< Levi and Shannah
"I found Levi through an organization
that rescued dogs and trained them to be service dogs.
I really liked the idea of training the dogs who needed
homes instead of breeding new ones to be service dogs.
So I fostered him and helped train him. I fell in love
with Levi right away. He didn't end up becoming a service
dog but he sure did help me through a hard time. I don't
know what I would do without him. He makes me very happy.
I volunteer walking dogs at the shelter because it breaks
my heart to think dogs like my Levi are homeless. Every
dog I work with has a good heart."
