About Us
Tazzy Animal Rescue Fund was started January 1, 2005 by Leilani and Rick, Tazzy's humans, to honor his memory. Taz,their beloved Boxer, fell victim to the ravages of cancer. The grief was very difficult to deal with, but they found volunteering at animal rescues helped them cope. Helping other animals was not only rewarding, it also seemed a fitting way to honor the life of the animal who had given them so much joy. It only took a few short months to make a decision to start a fund to help save animals. The mission of Tazzy Fund is to raise money to support the animal rescue community with medical bills, transportation, fund and facilitate animal education in the school system, bring awareness to spay and neuter programs and send volunteer teams out in the field where needed most. We fund Horse, Dog, Cat and Bird Rescue efforts.
Tazzy Fund also finances a Rescue Retirement Program called Save The Seniors. We pull senior animals who are abandoned at shelters or in danger of spending their last days in a rescue kennel. We take them and put them into loving foster or adopted homes forever and cover all medical expenses. Visit us on www.1800saveapet.com to see our adoptable dogs!
