NIXA, Mo. — A dog rescue organization out of Nixa is celebrating the rescue of 1,000 unwanted dogs from Nixa Animal Control.
The 1,000th rescued dog, a male tri-colored Shepard Mix, was freed from Nixa Animal Control on May 1 and is now ready to be fostered or adopted through 4 The Love of K9s Dog Rescue.
Founded in 2003 by owner Sherry Lee, 4 The Love of K9s has been partnering with Nixa Animal Control to find loving homes for unwanted dogs, which has led to 1,000 dogs being rescued.
“Since 2003, our mission has not changed… partnering with local animal control facilities to provide vet care for discarded, unwanted dogs and placing them in safe, loving forever homes, regardless of medical needs, age, or breed,” said Sherry Lee. “We are a foster-based rescue saving Missouri dogs… one dog at a time.”
