THE

COMMUNITY

Support MISSION
At Cheyla's Rescue Foundation our goal is to educate the public about animal care to prevent neglect, cruelty, and suffering for pets. We strive to help reduce the number of homeless pets in our community through our spay/neuter programs. CRF regularly facilitates the rescue, medical treatment, rehabilitation, and adoptive placement of dogs and cats. Our current fund raising efforts include attending market events regularly as well as holding our annual gala, Hearts 4 Paws. These efforts are in order to provide medical care, food and shelter for our resuce petts. We offer volunteer opportunities whether it be with socializing our rescue pets or helping with events. CRF regularly works with other local shelters to help develop partnerships and collaborative relationships to support our vision

CHEYLA'S STORY

Cheyla
Cheyla the dog
Cheylatiella

Cheyla was a pit bull rescued by Dr. berkeridge while she was a veterinary student in Athens, Georgia. After being saved along with many other pit bulls when a dog fighting ring was shut down, she was detined to be euthenized being evaluated as too aggressive to save and domesticate. Dr. Berkeridge was asked to foster one of the dogs that were saved and she picked Cheyla, the lost cause given up by everyone else. Read about Cheyla's incredible journey from huddling under a bench in a shelter in Georgia to being the poster child of our rescue.
