In the hopes of increasing the animal «adoption options» in Skagit County and beyond, a group of animal lovers got together in the Fall of 1999 and started a non profit alternative animal rescue and
placement organization called Saving Pets One at a Time (SPOT).
However, regarding the pure bred Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, and Cattle Dog, it seems apparent to us that the pure breed
organizations in Northern California are unable, for whatever reasons, to respond to the
call for rescue, and it falls upon us to pull these animals from the shelters and incorporate them into our rescue, foster, and
placement effort.
