Silva family

My husband and I have grown up around dogs. We were brought up with various breeds and sizes of dogs that were rescued by our parents. Taught that they are members of the family! Only having little dogs for several years after we purchased our first home I wanted to rescue a dog with "presence".  Sadly, 3 days after rescuing a beautiful "mutt" from the shelter he passed away in my arms from Parvo. After a few years, I had come across a young Saint with epilepsy that the owner was not able to care for. We decided to rescue again... that was my Baby “Moose”. I wouldn't have ever imagined that in the short time that he was a part of our lives, he would have made such a huge impact. Shortly before he crossed the rainbow bridge we were asked by a neighbor if Moose would attend a fund raising event for a foster dog that was in need! That was the start of the adventure... Rescuing Saints so that they can rescue their people.
