Sanctuary Care

Occasionally we do have Afghan Hounds surrendered that require palliative care and are not candidates for adoption. Willow helps sanctuary care dogs to achieve the best possible quality of life right up until the end of life by placing them in a caring foster home and meeting their medical needs. Willow relies heavily on donations to help with Sanctuary care costs. To learn more about dog(s) in our sanctuary care program click here.
