FOCCAS, Inc.
Our Mission
FOCCAS, Inc.- Shepherd & Husky Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit 100% volunteer organization formed in 2010 to assist in rescuing, re-homing and providing for the medical needs of homeless pets in Citrus County.
FOCCAS, Inc. is a registered charity in the State of FL and has 501(c)(3) status with the IRS. We have no paid employees or directors. We are 100% volunteer-based. All donations are used to help the animals. Our volunteers & fosters provide their own transportation for themselves and rescue pets to adoption events, veterinary care, and other rescue groups. Often our pets require extensive medical care for conditions or injuries sustained prior to their arrival @ our rescue. Surgeries and x-rays are the most common. We rely entirely on donations and fundraising efforts.
Adoption Policy
All adopters must be at least 18 years old (or accompanied by an adult) and either own their own home or have written permission and/or a rental agreement that specifies they can have pets on the property. Some dogs will only be adopted out to applicants with a fenced yard and/or proven handling experience with the breed.
We show pets by appointment only, you must complete and submit an Adoption Application to make an appointment. All our pets are indoor, companion animals - we DO NOT offer any sort of guard or yard dogs EVER !
There is a required donation for all adoptions that varies by dog, please refer to the description for a given dog's requested donation. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, current on rabies, distemper/parvo & Bordetella vaccinations, heartworm tested, wormed, on flea and heartworm preventative and microchipped.
