Rescue Groups

Susan has done all the work letting the reader know what’s involved with each idea—costs, planning time and how many people it takes to get them done. This book is a valuable resource for both start ups and established groups. I am planning to recommend it to students who attend workshops at Best Friends Animal Society and to the animal community at large.”
