Texas Peke Rescue
Business Plan
Mission Statement
Our mission at Texas Peke Rescue
is to rescue any small dog in our area regardless of age or medical condition, and provide them with love, shelter, food, human companionship, medical care, and spay-neuter services through local veterinarians until they find their forever families.
Texas Peke rescue will try to rescue any small dog who is either abandoned in
a shelter or living with an owner who can't provide care for it any longer.
The Team
CEO Kaci M. Boggs
Market Summary
Market: past, present, & future:
We plan to fund our company as a non-profit agency through donations and fundraisers
Opportunities
Problems and opportunities:
Over 160,000 dogs were put to sleep in Amarillo alone last year. By taking in abused, neglected an unwanted pets, we can find them homes and avoid some of these senseless deaths.
Over population of animal shelters is caused by ignorance and avoidance of spay/neuter programs. We will help this situation through automatic sterilization of all animals coming through our rescue.
Business Concept
Rescue and adoption of abused, neglected and unwanted pets.
Competition
Local kill shelters and ASPCA
We are a no-kill shelter, utilizing foster homes for animals until they find a forever family.
We specialize in small breed dogs only, whereas the local SPCA takes in mainly large dogs and cats.
Goals & Objectives
Five-year goals
We would like to have our own facility
Be able to provide shelter for upwards of 25-50 animals at a time
Be an asset to the community, offering pet micro-chipping services.
Financial Plan
At this time our budget is limited to start up and small donations. We plan to hold a few fundraisers this year to gain resources.
Resource Requirements
