Nora Ann's Home of Hope Dog Rescue

SOS · Urgent need TODAY
Cassi and the animals need help THIS WEEK.
Right now, every dog and cat we rescue lives at Cassi's own home in Sonoyta. This is a full-time calling — and it costs real money. Electricity, water, gas for the rescue runs, vet bills, food, litter, medicine, and food for Cassi herself so she can keep showing up day after day. We urgently need monthly donors and volunteers to drive transports, walk dogs, foster, and help process adoptions.

Our Mission
From a small home in Sonoyta — minutes from the U.S. border and the shores of Puerto Peñasco — Cassi rescues, heals, and rehomes desert dogs and cats abandoned along the highway and in the colonias. Faith carries us; love feeds them.
Today's Rescue · Tomorrow's Sanctuary
Today, Nora Ann's Home of Hope Dog Rescue runs out of Cassi's own home in Sonoyta — named in honor of her grandmother Nora Ann, whose hands were always open to creatures in need. Tomorrow's dream is bigger: Sanctuary of All Souls in Puerto Peñasco, a full-spectrum refuge welcoming dogs, cats, horses, chickens and any creature in need, with an on-site clinic, pet hotel, and memorial cemetery.
