Happy 4th of July! Did you know that more pets get lost on this day than any other day of the year? Help the animals in your family stay safe by leaving them home during fireworks, create a safe space with doors and windows secure, and ensure they are wearing ID tags. ❤️ 💙 🤍

Be sure to give a big smooch to the ones you love today! 🥰Animals are members of the family. That's why at SAAV we provide for their safe refuge at a time of critical need: when a domestic abuse victim leaves an abusive partner. Thank you for supporting our mission.
