Mission
Bichon Rescue Brigade is an all-volunteer group whose mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and place Bichon Frise and mixed-breed dogs into responsible and caring homes. BRB rescues at-risk, last-chance & special need dogs typically in need of major medical care or behavior training at significant cost. BRB participates in animal rescue fairs and events, and works to educate our communities about the importance of spaying/neutering and its impact toward controlling canine over-population.
Program accomplishments
- Care and treatment by veterinarians and professional animal behaviorists for medically fragile, behavioral and other special needs dogs rescued by our organization. We rescue approximately 100-150 dogs per year, and about 90% of them require extensive medical treatment and/or training. This includes approx. 15-20 dogs in our lifetime care program who require lifelong medications, medical care and maintenance.Expenses $261,050
- Administrative costs for internet hosting, phones, mailings, website support and maintenance, and office supplies.Expenses $5,382
- Supplies that we provide for rescued dogs when they go to their foster and/or adoption home to ensure they have basic supplies needed for their transition -- leash/collar/harness/tag, bed, blanket, toy, food dishes, food, treats, flea treatment. Average cost of supplies per dog is $60 (not including medical care costs.) This also includes costs for dogs in our Forever Foster program, who are not adoptable due to medical or behavior. BRB provides lifelong care -- food, grooming, supplies -- at approx. $1000 per month for 20-25 dogs in the program.Expenses $2,691
