EXAMINER– Adoption 911 is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) animal rescue devoted to helping
all animals in their time of need. It started when one Los Angeles woman
found the need to save horses from slaughter and grew into a foundation
dedicated to keeping all creatures from a life of despair, torture,
starvation, solitude and slaughter.
It all started one Saturday
