Our strength is rooted not only in our words but, more importantly, in the actions we take through our initiatives. Since our inception in 1985 as Fuzzie Rescues in Brooklyn, and later in Long Island, NY, we recognized that collaboration allows us to tackle challenges more effectively. This understanding led to the launch of Soulful Warrior Rescue & Training in Rochester, NY. In 2024, we transitioned to Animal House Foundation in NY, where we established  East Coast rescue In 2025.  Our mission is to create a positive impact through advocacy, education, and outreach in all our animal endeavors. Growing up in Brooklyn, Jo Cahill the unfortunate reality of abandoned dogs at just age 16, she gained  trust of many dumped dogs, trained them, and found them new homes. Her passion for animals inspired her to become a veterinary technician and assistant, and she dedicated her time to local shelters and rescue efforts. Alongside her family, she ran a ferret and reptile rescue in Long Island for six years. Jo pursued education in training and continues to collaborate with various trainers, shelters, and animal control. Chris Cahill has also dedicated his life to rescuing and rehoming cats. Their shared love for animals led them to establish  We are excited to have opened  an all-in-one aa dedicated rescue and animal facility featuring boarding, training, grooming, doggie daycare, and a private dog park set to open in spring 2026. This space allows dogs to run off-leash safely. Additionally, we will provide a pet pantry to support the community, along with adoption and fundraising events in partnership with local rescues and shelters. We are eager to participate in educational programs and firmly believe in the power of collaboration among rescues. In the future, we plan to offer low-cost spay/neuter/vaccine clinics and grants, including Mae's Mission for heartworm prevention, aimed at assisting low-income pet owners. Our mission is clear: to help dogs in need loving homes, rehabilitate those who require it, provide training, and ensure that medical care is accessible when necessary and education. Giving back to the community is at the heart of what we do.
