Briana Neves - Foster Coordinator
Brianna brings decades of experience in both shelter animal and wildlife rescue. As a mental health therapist, her professional work focuses on supporting humans' healing through trauma, a lens she applies to animals recovering from neglect, abandonment, and abuse. She’s passionate about animal rescue and helping to create safe, supportive spaces for healing through foster care. An experienced foster and repeat foster fail, Brianna is committed to giving back to the animals most in need, all that her animal family members give her daily.
Leti Luna, the heart and soul behind our mission, grew up in Southern California surrounded by a menagerie of animals, from dogs and cats to rabbits and even a piglet! Her journey into animal rescue began when her beloved dog Gunter was diagnosed with aggressive cancer, highlighting the urgent need for shelters that cater to special needs pets. Inspired by Gunter's resilience, Leti has dedicated her life to helping hard-adopt dogs, ensuring they find the loving forever homes they truly deserve. Join us in honoring her passion and commitment to giving every dog a second chance at happiness.
