Welcome to Angel's Gate, a residential, non-profit, 501 (C) 3 home, our home, for special needs animals. Here, animals many of whom are terminally and/or critically ill or physically challenged, come to live out their days in peace, dignity and love. Our focus is on wellness and quality of life. We provide for the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of each animal. We take a holistic approach in animal care, giving all needed supportive services including hospice care. |
A smile where none existed…self-esteem instead of self-doubt…trust replacing betrayal—these are just some of the daily miracles Gabriel's Angels' Certified Pet Therapy Teams initiate each day in their work with abused and at-risk Valley children. Our loving dogs and owners offer unconditional love, teach empathy, respect and trust, all in an effort to help these children feel better about their lives. Thanks to our committed volunteers and supporters, we were able to serve over 1,500 valley children in crisis our first year. We need your help to reach this year's goal of 10,000. | | |
