What is Wags to Riches Animal Rescue & Sanctuary?

Wags to Riches Animal Rescue & Sanctuary is a non-profit 501 3C that has been servicing Central Washington since 2008.

All Wags people are volunteers –all money goes to the care, concern and feeding of the animals and not staff salaries. We will assist in all surrounding states and Canada. We will re-home animals to the surrounding areas as well.

If you have a passion for animals and their well-being this is a fantastic cause to support in many different ways. There is an overpopulation of animals and your donations help not only educate the public but also spay and neuter animals assisted by your monetary donation. You can become a volunteer, offer your services as a foster parent to an animal in need or become the forever home to a loving animal that's ready to be loved and give love in return. Make a difference today and watch how it changes your life!
