About Us
Our amazing team of employees and volunteers are committed to helping our animals find forever homes. Our veterinarian has dedicated her life to animal rescue. We take our convictions and turn them into action to help better our community and provide our animals with the best.
Judy's Forgotten Jewells is a licensed Non-Profit Animal Rescue Group. It was founded by our veterinarian Patricia L. Smith DVM in 2009 in honor of her mother's childhood dog "Judy Dog" and Jewell Animal Hospital. Dr. Smith believes that ALL animals deserve quality pet care and a caring home. The rescue is supported by volunteers, the Jewell Animal Hospital staff, and pet-passionate people in our community who donate money and supplies. The rescue does not receive any funding from large corporations or private foundations.
Our adoption fees helps cover only a fraction of what it costs to spay/neuter, vaccinate, blood test, implant a microchip, provide routine flea/tick/heartworm prevention, food, etc.
