Adopt Your Perfect Animal Companion

See below the dogs currently in our sanctuary and ready for adoption. All of our dogs have been
spayed or neutered, all up-to-date on their vaccinations, and are in healthy condition. When you
adopt a rescued dog you participate in bringing these wonderful animals back to wholeness.

Raymond's Gift

Raymond had a diaphragmatic hernia. X-rays showed that part of
his stomach and intestines were in his chest cavity, so he could
not  process food and was slowly starving to death. Following an
extensive veterinary exam, this one-year-old Lab mix faced two
hard choices: quiet euthanasia or risky, costly extreme surgery.
The odds of survival were 70/30, the cost would be over $1000.
The emergency medical fund was depleted and the practical
decision seemed to be choice #1, which created heavy sadness,
but only made sense.

What happened next is not for everyone. If you don't like mystery
and mysticism, then read no further. If you'd like to hear what
Raymond had to "say," please do read on.

COURTESY POSTINGS:

These dogs are not in the care of Bridging the Worlds and are being posted as a courtesy to their owner. Unless specifically stated to the contrary,
Bridging the Worlds has not evaluated, met or in any other way interacted with these animals. Consequently, Bridging the Worlds makes no representation
as to the temperament, health, or suitability of these dogs.
Our Mission

To alleviate animal suffering by providing sanctuary from abuse, neglect, and homelessness;
To end the killing of healthy animals as a method of population control;
To teach that animals are intrinsically valuable, worthy of respect, compassion, and care.
Currently our efforts are focused on dogs, who live safe and free here while they recover physical health and
emotional harmony. All are spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care and excellent nutrition.
No   cages, no chains. They have 35 snugly fenced acres where we can take them to run and play. Most of
them live among us - free to snooze indoors on hot days and cold nights, welcome to take refuge from
summer or  winter storms in our house and offices, or tucked into their own houses in their own yards, as
they choose.
As needed, they receive homeopathic and herbal remedies, nutritional supplements, chiropractic treatment,
acupuncture, and western medicines to address acute or chronic physical or behavioral symptoms. When
they are ready, we help them to join new human families.
Occasionally an unexpected condition such as cancer is revealed during the initial veterinary exam. Or a
traumatized animal who functions well in this environment cannot adjust to the requirements of life as a “pet”
and is considered “unadoptable.” We do everything possible to help those animals achieve comfort and
happiness and they live out their lives with us.
We regret deeply that we cannot take in every animal who needs help, because we do not kill dogs to make
space for other dogs. We see each dog through to adoption into a new family or to old age and death. We
do euthanize for untreatable suffering.
We chose the name Bridging the Worlds because we like the idea of a path that bridges the human and
animal realms -- a path to human/animal relationships of mutual respect, true communication, and mutual
aid. Everyone who has ever loved an animal has crossed that bridge

Marty's Meals   www.martysmeals.com

When we take in a hurt, neglected, starved dog, the very first "medicine" we
offer is hand-crafted Marty's Meals.   Dull fur, eyes, and spirits soon shine and
they have energy to dance for dinner.  But really!  Dogs don't have to suffer to
benefit from this wonderful food -- please visit their website on behalf of your
beloved!
