Our Mission Statement:

When a child or an adult, by no choice of their own, are put into either the government system (foster homes/institutions), hospice, or nursing homes/long term care facilities this dog sanctuary will be a haven for these much loved canine companions.

Bark Street Alley will provide shelter for these animals while their owners are unable to have them with them on a daily basis. These dogs will be transported to their human friend once a week for the well being of both the canine and their friend. On any given day, during the day, these dogs may be visited by their owners.  All so to maintain hope, love, and spirit.



If the pet owner is discharged from the long term facility or the foster child is either adopted or becomes an adult, their canine companion will be returned to them at no charge.

If the pet owner in the long term care facility passes, the dog will then be adopted out to a new loving home.

We pledge to you, to help you maintain the mutual love you created between you and your canine companion.  All care and services will be funded by donations and grants, costing nothing to you.

With genuine appreciation to your special bond, Bark Street Alley will be there for you.
