Mission Statement
At Emerald Ark, for the dogs, cats and exotic birds (parrots and finches) at our rescue and sanctuary we provide uniquely personalized emotional support, nutrition from whole real foods, and holistic and integrative care. By utilizing these basic yet essential health-supporting practices we improve the quality of life and health for the animals under our care while also collecting much needed data for the results we receive. Our innovative way of combing holistic nutrition and care provides a quality of care unmatched in other animal welfare organizations. The example we set through our practices, and our onsite organic sustainable farm and garden, provides numerous community outreach programs for people of all ages.
