My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

COURTESY POST / URGENT

Helga is a resident at local animal shelter and she is SCHEDULED FOR EUTHANASIA on Saturday, 4/20/24, IF NOT ADOPTED/RESCUED!

Meet gorgeous HELGA! She is a total sweetheart who loves to be near you. Helga soaks up attention and petting like a sponge. She's affectionate, will lean in, and gently give kisses. Helga knows her sit command and takes treats so gently.

Helga is dog-friendly and has been kenneled with many different dogs without issue. Perfect as only dog and will do fine in a household with more than one dog provided her family is aware of her resource guarding with toys. Will benefit from leash training and basic obedience training.

Helga is a beautiful dog with a sweet disposition and desperately in need of a family to call her own!

More about this rescue

Whiskers & Tails Foundation was founded on February 1, 2005 by Lynne Amano, a vegetarian. Our primary mission is to rescue dogs, cats, to assist needy pet owners, to educate the general public on the humane treatment, and care of all animals.

Our goal is to prevent animal cruelty, and make their lives better while with us. We continue to form relationships with local animal shelters, rescue groups, individuals, volunteers, city, county organizations and supporters. We also donate to other organizations to assist them with their mission objectives.

One of our programs assists senior citizens with their companion animals by finding temporary pet housing, while the owner is hospitalized, in recovery, or permanent homes in cases of the owner's terminal illness, or death.

Whiskers & Tails Foundation believes in spay and neuter of all animals, especially feral cats. We rescue barnyard animals, and educate public on backyard wildlife.

Whiskers & Tails Foundation is a registered 501 (C) (3) Non Profit Organization, Tax ID #02-0737421. We are based out of the sunny Southern California, in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. Our funding comes entirely from donations, our adoption fees and fund raisers. We do not receive any City, County or Government funding. Your tax deductible donation is used 100% for the welfare, and veterinary care of the animals while they are with us.
