GET RESCUED IN GULFPORT
MARCH 1 2008
Get Rescued in Gulfport is an event for animal rescue groups from across the state of Florida.
Gulfport Florida is a pet friendly community that opens it's heart to this very special event.
GET RESCUED.....IN GULFPORT is a festival, in downtown Gulfport Florida which offers all animal rescue groups an opportunity to showcase their rescue and raise much needed funds.
Get Rescued.....in Gulfport was established in 2005 with the sole purpose of bringing together 501 (c) (3) registered 'non profit' animal rescue charities. The City of Gulfport is enthusistic about the idea of a festival atmosphere that will allow rescue groups to showcase adoptable pets, promote their work and raise money so their cause may be continued.
Get Rescued..... in Gulfport 2007 was a huge success. Four dogs adopted as a result of this event much money and awareness raised. On Saturday March 1, 2008, the event will be five times larger than 2007. We need your support and participation to make the event five times more successful.
Our pets motivate us to rescue, please let the love of your personal pets encourage you to make a difference.

We believe that the growing problem of over population of pets in this country can only be curtailed through responsible pet ownership, which must include the spaying and neutering of companion animals. We are excited that as our organization continues to grow we are able to save more Beagles and we are proud that we were able to find new loving homes for over 260 dogs in 2007. At the Tampa Bay Beagle Rescue we know we cannot save every Beagle but we are committed to save every Beagle we can!

As such, DARE specializes in the rescue, rehabilitation, socialization and re-homing of abandoned, neglected, abused, orphaned and/or surrendered dachshunds and dachshund mixes by providing temporary safe shelter and necessary vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, dental and other necessary medical attention, regardless of age or health related issues. DARE also ensures no dachshund shall be adopted for the purposes of breeding or scientific/medical experimentation. DARE also provides education to the public on the dachshund breed, puppy mills, and responsible pet guardianship including, but not limited to, humane animal care and spay/neuter practices. MaJical Miniatures takes in Wildlife, Exotic, and Farm animals, and strives to provide quality life for animals that are injured and cannot be released back into the wild, rehabbed and released when possible, or adopted as a beloved farm pet, with those choices dependent on the type of animal and their situation. When they cannot be released or placed, they spend their lives here, cared for, loved, and valued as teachers for the individuals and groups that tour here to visit the animals and learn who those animals are, and what they need. Our greatest mission beyond medical and emotional care for each animal that crosses our path of care, is teaching. When humans learn about each animal, they find more respect for their individual ways of life. That in itself, gives back to the lives of other animals. We are looking forward to receiving your information about the event, and doing all we can to educate, share, and provide some enjoyment to the public that arrives to walk the event.

In spite of their prior abuse, most of these animals will respond to love and affection and in return will become the most loyal and loving companions a human could ever expect to have. Lost Wolf Rescue will remain dedicated to providing rescue and safe sanctuary for these animals as well as education and resources for prospective wolf dog owners.
