Our Mission

At A Buddy for Life Inc, we believe that every living creature deserves love and security, and to be treated with the respect and responsibility that come with belonging to a family.  Our goal is to save the lives of as many dogs as possible, making sure that each of those lives, in turn, touches another.  To support that goal, AB4L finds foster families to protect those who would otherwise be discarded and to teach the abused that they are worth our time and affection; we provide a chance to those who have been forgotten or never even known, and the dogs we rescue bring joy to those who open their homes and hearts to our ever-growing family.  Through the hard work of many and the grace of second chances, we are working to make sure that more lives may be changed for the better by having A Buddy for life.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  Our EIN number is 22-3921170.


Black Dog Syndrome
Statistics have shown that black dogs, particularly large black dogs like Labradors or Lab mixes, have a very difficult time getting adopted, and are euthanized at a staggering rate at many animal control facilities throughout the country. The sad truth is, they are overlooked in favor of lighter colored dogs because the lighter colored dogs show better in a dark, poorly lit, caged environment as in a shelter. This is why we have made this our mission to focus on saving as many black dogs as we can.  Please don't overlook our wonderful black dogs, they need you!

Please note, we do not have an actual shelter.  All of our dogs are in different foster homes.
