Always SAFE
(Saving Animals from Endangerment)


Bend, Oregon, United States
Always S.A.F.E. is dedicated to the regulation of procedures and kennel personnel so guardians and their animals are not put at unnecessary risk, abuse or harm.
We are a grass roots approach of concerned citizens in Central Oregon (Bend) exploring the need to develop explicit Boarding Kennel processes, structures and legislation in order to advocate for animal safety and well being at boarding facilities.
