The Petco Love $4,000 grant will provide support for Two by Two’s mission of saving animals from unnecessary euthanization and a life of suffering on the streets. The money will go towards rehabilitating dogs throughout Alabama, whether physically or temperamentally.

Two by Two Rescue

If you don’t know much about Two by Two Rescue, it’s a local nonprofit based in Helena that focuses on helping animals find new life in loving homes. The no-kill shelter rehabilitates and re-homes as many pets as possible, from dogs and cats to larger animals like horses and even pot-bellied pigs. In 2020, Two by Two took in nearly 1,000 dogs.

The Rescue got its start when Sonya King fed stray dogs in Helena and she wanted to find a way to help more animals in need. While the nonprofit has moved up from humble beginnings in 2005, the rescue continues to send volunteers to the streets of Helena to check on stray dogs.
