The mission of WellPetUSA is to raise awareness to prevent the abuse of animals in the USA or remove them from harmful environments all together. The WellPetUSA team cares about pet wellness and their needs. Making a pet well entails many things; it is a daunting, yet doable task. WellPetUSA provides fundraising and community pet education and welfare, to distribute funds to local and national organizations to assist in the health of animals.
In 2000, the founders and the board determined that more focused direction and values were required. Therefore, WellPetUSA team members currently concentrate the organization’s efforts in the areas of fundraising and community pet education and welfare. Thus, two new programs, The Meow Bow Wow fund and Pet Education, Awareness and Training (P.E.A.T) were created in 2000. Amber's Pets was created in 2008.
* The Meow Bow Wow Fund raises and distributes funds to rescue groups and the general public to help offset medical costs.
* P.E.A.T is a program designed to educate the community and pet owners about pet welfare.
* Amber's Pets was created in 2008 to honor our founder and will award funds each year to one rescue group or needy family to treat a pet afflicted with cancer.
