LovelyLoaves Rescue: An Animal Sanctuary Project

LoveyLoaves Rescue is our current Ambassador of the Month! Founded and operated by Cheri Wells alongside her husband, LovelyLoaves Rescue is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to rehabilitating and rehoming "specially- abled" dogs in Orlando, FL while educating about doggie disabilities.  

Established in 2011, LoveyLoaves Rescue currently works with a small network of foster homes to provide a loving environment for these special lil' Loveys during the rehabilitation process.  The ultimate long-term goal of LoveyLoaves Rescue is to open the doors of LoveyLoaves Sanctuary, a peaceful haven for special-needs dogs to get the medical, emotional, and behavioral treatments and therapies necessary for them to be placed in loving homes.  

Wells says, “There is a great need for organizations that can provide medical care and services for dogs that have been dealt different circumstances in life.  Right now county shelters are burdened with an overpopulation of dogs, including special needs dogs, and they are struggling to meet the needs of these animals.  LoveyLoaves Rescue can take those dogs out of the shelter and give them the special attention they require which them frees up a spot for another dog to hopefully be placed in a forever home.

In December of 2012, LoveyLoaves Rescue purchased seventeen acres of property that will soon be the home of LoveyLoaves Sanctuary.  The Sanctuary project is the focus of LoveyLoaves Rescue’s fundraising efforts at this time with a $140,000 target to complete the project.  LoveyLoaves Rescue is fully supported by donations.  Recently, we had the pleasure of attending the Central Florida Home & Garden Show in Orlando, FL where we were able to educate the community on speciall-abled dogs with the assistance of Colby, a 5 year old Pomeranian-Corgi mix.
