Please see below for a note from Farah!

“Dear Ones:
If you know me, you know that my life revolves around helping animals in need. My journey began many years ago, and after helping give hundreds of dogs and cats a second chance (and spending thousands of hours and dollars doing so), I have no intention of stopping anytime soon! I’m honored and thrilled to have this as my life mission.
And if you don’t know me personally, you may have seen the work of my organization, One Planet Rescue. We rescue animals in need regardless of breed, age, and medical status, but we can only do what we do with your support.
If you appreciate my mission and the work that we do, please consider making a tax-deductible donation in honor of my upcoming birthday. It would mean the world to me, and it means a second chance to the animals. Thank you so much for your support!”

As 2021 comes to a close, we reflect on the past 12 months and in particular on the sweet OPR alumni who spread their wings to soar with the angels. We lost 23 alumni sweethearts in 2021. While we’re heartbroken that they’re no longer with us physically, we’re also so grateful that they had the chance to experience unconditional love and to know that they mattered, many for the first time in their lives. Without our supporters, fosters, and adopters, these 23 angels would never have had the chance. We’re so grateful for the love and support of our community. There are 23 stars twinkling brightly in the heavens tonight. Gone, but never, ever forgotten.

Dear friends & supporters,

Our 2022 OPR calendar is going to be a very special tribute to “The Power of Love”!

We’ll be showcasing a number of our rescue animals and showing their transformations from unwanted to forever loved!

Together, We Can Make A Difference! 

All proceeds go toward saving more animals in need. We appreciate your support!

Sweetie had her surgery today! Poor baby had a huge malignant tumor removed and while she was under, amazing Dr. Boldon went to spay her and found a couple of cysts on her ovaries. He also extracted 4 rotten teeth and her badly infected ears got a deep cleaning and we were sent home with some meds. She’s such a trooper! Our dear friend Nan offered to host Sweetie while she recovers from her surgery and she already reported that our Sweetie is sitting up, has drunk water, and is ready for her dinner!

Sweetie was dumped at the shelter by her family who pretty much asked that she gets euthanized. Thanks to the shelter rescue coordinator, Brandie, who reached out to rescue organizations hoping one of us would pull her and take care of her medical.

As always, we can take on these serious medical cases knowing we have the financial support from our friends and supporters. Please continue to be there with us. Please help us help them!

California/West Coast peeps:
This special bear is Bruno and he needs our help! 💜 Please help us find him a special family to show him the unconditional love he desperately needs. His life literally depends on it.
This sweet boy with the eyes that melt your heart hasn’t had a good life. He needs someone who cares enough to turn that around. Could that be you or someone you know?
Bruno is about 7 (a perfect age!), and is a dream dog in the house. He’s super affectionate, adorable, and playful. He’s potty trained, walks well on leash, and loves humans. He has no mobility issues and easily can jump in and out of the car. He has some bald patches on his back and per doctors order, I am giving him medicated shampoo bath twice a week.
The only catch is that he needs to be an only pet. He can be reactive to other dogs and needs a savvy adopter who can manage that. He just needs his space from other pups. Other than that, he’s an absolutely wonderful dog and would make an amazingly loving companion.
Bruno is currently being kenneled because no foster or adopter has stepped up. That’s no way for him to live. This angel deserves to have a chance at being a cherished family member and enjoying the joys of living in a home. Otherwise, unfortunately, Bruno is out of options.
Please share to help us spread the word. We know it’s not easy to find a home that has no other pets, but we just know his perfect family has to be out there! 💜

NAFAS HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

Meet Sweet Three-Legged Nafas!

If we had to describe this sweet girl in a nutshell, we’d say she’s a very good girl. Nafas is a mixed-breed tripod who’s about a year and a half old. In her previous life, she was a street dog in Iran, but she’s settled into her foster home in San Jose quite nicely. Even though Nafas is missing a back leg, she’s a bundle of energy who loves walks, running laps around the backyard, and playing with her toys.

Nafas (whose name means “breath” in Farsi) is a very smart girl who listens well and has a desire to please. She’s easy to train, and she picked up both her name and “sit” in just a couple of days. She’s also highly food motivated, another perk for training. Nafas walks well on leash and sleeps well at night. She’s even crate trained. What’s more, she loves cuddling, will seek out attention (even from strangers), and is a fan of belly rubs.

While Nafas is a bit scared of cars and loud noises, she’s getting more and more used to them every day. She’s also a bit weary of dogs she doesn’t know, but she’s shown that she can accept them with proper introductions and socialization. Nafas also currently gets an Adequan shot once a month to ensure that the muscles in her one hind leg stay strong.

If you’re looking for an easy-going, fun-loving young pup, look no further than our girl Nafas!

Perfect Pure came to us with badly injured eyes that caused vision impairment. She was such a good girl during the ordeal and kept a happy attitude despite the obvious pain and discomfort.

Now sporting a huge smile as well as a perma-wink, she doesn’t seem to know that anything’s special about her. She’s almost 2 years old, a 9 pounds super model and cat-friendly, super affectionate, jolly and full of good vibes. She’s healthy and full of energy constantly playing with toys. Pure is all gas no brakes – headed straight for your lap or even your shoulder!
She loves loves loves food!

Sweet, goofy, mild-mannered and just plain adorable. This girl is ready to begin entertaining adoption applications. Don’t miss out on this girl! She’s a total keeper.
