New Hope Rescue Center
About Us
The New Hope Rescue Center (prefix NHRC) is a non-profit organization here
on Furry Paws that was founded by me, Ally, in June of 2014. I currently am in charge
of the dogs, finances, the shop, competitions, advertizing, adoptions, donations, special
programs, and more! Our mission is to rescue unwanted or uncared-for dogs and find
them loving homes. I say "our" because there are hundreds of other players that have
made the shelter possible. I couldn't have done any of this without you guys! *blows kiss*
Dog Care
Here at the NHRC, the life of a dog is treasured and respected. Even though they are made of
pixels, the online treatment of a dog often reflects the player's treatment of his/her own dog
in real life. We strive to set an example for the correct treatment of online dogs AND
real dogs. Our care includes the providing of water, food, toys, chews, leashes, collars, as well
as proper cleansing, training, and showing to every rescue dog. We will never lock a dog
unless vacations, health, or emergencies require us to do so. The colors/flavors of leashes, collars,
and food are determined by the dogs needed stats to succeed in his/her sport. Untrained dogs
are trained by us to their recommendations and aptitude. Dogs at the NHRC are not bred.
Adoption Process
1) Bid on any amount of dogs you wish. All bids are started at zero dollars.
2) We will preform a kennel check to ensure you are what we are looking for in a
rescue owner. This typically means that you care for every dog fully everyday, retire
at an acceptable age, and don't overbreed or sell over 3/4 of your dogs. It's no big
deal, I promise! :)
3) If you pass this check, we will send you a little list of questions to confirm
you are ready for the adoption. These will be similar to the values we put on
the kennel check, but more in depth. Once again, no big deal! :)
4) If we are satisfied with your answers, we will send the dog to you along with
five chews, two Lacrima bags, and a special bonus item. If you are level 5 or
under, you will also receive 2000 FPD.
When it comes to adoption, first come first serve- no matter the bid.

Surrendering a Dog
Do you have a dog that you cannot care for anymore or can't afford to
keep? Don't wait one more minute. Surrender your dog to the NHRC and
we will take absolutely phenominal care of it. All it takes is a transfer request*
and we will open our arms and welcome in your sweet dog for free. That's
right. Unlike the Humane Society or public sales, we will provide your dog(s)
with a forever home for zero FPD. Please do not hesitate. Save your dog's life.
*If you are planning to surrender ten or more dogs, message me first for special instruction.
Fostering
We love our fosters! With an average of about 10-20 new dogs entering the
center each day, we can reach up to 100 new dogs each week! With
limited space in my kennel, things can be difficult. Fosters have saved me
in so many ways. We have over 250 dogs participating in the rescue
program and counting! If you are interested in fostering, message me
and I'll give you all of the information that you need along with a few small
interview questions. Here are our current active foster parents:
Please purchase some foster doggies!
Rescue Aid Program
Recently, many wonderful rescues have joined the Furry Paws community. This
program is dedicated to providing a bit of extra help to rescues levels 4-11. Just
message me to see if you qualify, and then we will provide you with these benefits:
Starter Kit
30 chews
15 dog beds
30 dog bowls
12 Lacrima food bags
7 sturdy toys (one of each)
And a gift of up to 20,000 FPD.
After the starter kit is received, you will recieve a gift of 15,000 FPD per week for three
months, along with two new dogs to care for each week. I will also give you multiple tips
on the succesful running of a rescue organization.
Financial Aid Program
Coming soon! Message me for information.
The New Hope Rescue Shop
We currently have an offical rescue shop, the NHRS. Here, you can contribute to the
well-being of our dogs through a simple purchase! All profit made in this shop goes
directly to the payment for competitions and training of our rescues. Please stop by,
for we often have the cheapest items in the entire mall! Happy shopping :)
Donations
The NHRC would be nowhere without our wonderful sponsors. All
donated money (no matter how much) will go to an amazing cause. Thank
you so much for your contributions, everyone. Without you, I'd be nowhere.
Happiness at the NHRC
"I really admire what you're doing, trying to rescue dogs."
- (#1174321), friendly adoptee
"I haven't really found a rescue that consitently shows its rescue dogs. That is,
until I saw YOUR kennel. I stumbled upon your post about your rescue, and
I was really impressed by how you run your rescue. And I admired you even
more because not only do you show your rescues, but I've also read about your
program to help other rescues.What you do takes dedication. And you've
brought back my hope for "rescuing" here on FP."
- (#627897), generous, friendly player
"It seems that at the moment there is only two decent rescues out there and
yours is definitely one of them."
- (#11944), generous, friendly player
"I've looked at a lot of rescue places since since I started and I like yours a lot
since you don't lock the dogs, I like the way you give daily updates on what you
have and that you were going away, that impressed me. I put a bid on a dog
in one center and I still haven't heard back about it, that is a really nice dog
and I could have done something for her but she's still sitting there locked in
someone's kennel."

Thanks again for everything. I love you guys so much.
