🚨URGENT🚨 My “owner” who failed to be my guardian just DUMPED me in the pound even though Forte was helping her to rehome me! I’ve done NOTHING wrong. There was no urgency that she had to get rid of me like this — to a death camp!? Forte is trying to bail me out but there’s nowhere to house me… Please foster me even temporarily, so that it will buy them some time to find an adopter or long-term foster home. Please share! I’ll go anywhere in southern California!
About us
Forte Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to finding solutions for the problem of pet overpopulation through its educational activities, animal adoption efforts, and outreach program. Based in Marina del Rey, CA, Forte was established in 2003. Our founder, Marie Atake, was appointed to the Board of Animal Services Commission by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and served as a Commissioner from 2005 to 2007. Following her service to the city, Ms. Atake and Forte Animal Rescue were each awarded a Certificate of Recognition by Los Angeles City Council in September 2007. Forte Animal Rescue received another Commendation from the City Council in June 2008. The City Council has also appointed her to the city’s Spay/Neuter Ordinance Advisory Committee. For her work on this Committee, the Council has honored her with the 4th commendation. Forte Animal Rescue offers refuge for homeless dogs until they are placed in their permanent homes. In order to successfully rescue and place the dogs with new families, we rely solely on donations. Once a dog is under our care, we never give up on any dog regardless of behavioral issues or medical challenges, which often means we incur significant expenses for veterinary treatment, behavioral rehabilitation, and boarding for dogs who take more time and care to adopt out. Forte also offers a structured Junior Volunteer program with hands-on experience, run by a certified high-school teacher. We are dedicated to inspiring compassion and educating the youth about the animal protection. Many children are learning the importance of spay/neuter and proper care of the animals while volunteering with us, and some are so inspired that they have decided to become veterinarians. Donations or any support is always greatly appreciated: www.FARescue.org We are also looking for foster homes for our rescued dogs, along with volunteers to help our adoption events.
