Read the statistics on HALO Animal Rescue's yearly intakes,
adoptions and outcomes, compiled by Maddie's Pet Rescue
Project in Maricopa County!
HALO is grateful to have support from Maddie's Fund
and to have be an integral part of the Maddie's Pet Rescue Project
of Maricopa County. This project was a 9 year project with the
goal of ending the euthanasia of "health" and "treatable" animals
in Maricopa County. The project ended October 31, 2011 with
the community coming close to accomplishing the goals we set out to
achieve. It has been several years since a "health" dog or
cat was euthanized in local shelters but as of the end of the
project we have not been able to eliminate euthanasia for those
animals considered "treatable"; those with a cold, too young or too
shy to be put up for adoption when they arrive at the
shelter. HALO's focus remains on partnering with local
open-admission shelters to continue helping take as many of these
"treatable" animals as possible from their shelters to help reduce
the death rate and ease the burden on their resources. We are
so very grateful to the Duffield family, the founders of the
Maddie's Fund, for their dedication to homeless animals across the
country and their willingness to help HALO Animal Rescue go
from an all volunteer agency adopting out 450 animals a year
to an agency that is saving over 3,000 animals a year in
Phoenix!
