This Facility is a Non-Profit 501 (c) (3) Dog Rescue only. Dogs will be rescued on a very small scale, Vaccinations updated prior to rescue, cared for their Medical Needs by a Mobile Vet, Groomed, Rehabilitated, Trained if necessary, and Boarded until adopted. Previous owner of this Facility was performing the same services. We have obtained a City of Newport Beach Kennel License. We will Fully Abide by all regulations in place per Chapter 20.90.070 Residential Kennel District: SP-7 (RK). The City of Newport Beach has approved Commercial Kennel Permit of 29 dogs and we will adhere to all requirements set forth by the City of Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 7.35. We will provide access to Animal Control and Police at any time on the property for investigation and/or inspection. We will ensure that all animals have been fully vaccinated and show proof upon request of an Animal Control Officer. We will pick up dog waste daily and flush to sewer. All urine will be washed into Home Sewage drain system only on a daily basis. Grooming Services are for the Boarded Animals Only and WILL NOT be available to the general public. This property is located at the end of the Cul-De-Sac that has been designated for Residential Kennels and includes the City of Newport Beach Animal Control Headquarters located 2 properties away from this location. Every other house on this Cul-De-Sac is in the business of Dog Day Care, Dog Training, and Dog Walking. We will be performing a much less impactful or invasive service of rescuing and rehabilitation of dogs. Much less traffic to our location will take place than all of the other homes. Amore for Dogs Official Mission Statement: At Amore for Dogs, our mission has evolved over time to accurately reflect what we’re working to accomplish. A better and beautiful life for the dogs we have come to dearly care for. Amore for Dogs goals include: to promote and provide the medical, training and housing for these special friends of ours, to build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness and to provide a beautiful forever life. At the heart of every animal welfare success story are two things: first, the incredible compassion of the people (like you!) who made it happen, and second, an inspiring mission that united those people in the first place.

In Conclusion, this Facility will be doing a much needed service to help dogs in distress and save
them from being euthanized. The Facility will be Non-Profit who’s main purpose is to save dogs
and rehabilitate as necessary. This Facility will be less impactful than the previous owner had in
place or the surrounding properties. We are asking to make updates and improvements to make
this mission successful.
