Team Chelsea is a volunteer community group, which helps to reunite lost pets with their families… 

The story began with a lost Bernese Mountain Dog… to this date, Chelsea hasn’t been found… we pray she found a loving, caring family to take care of her… The sadness of not finding Chelsea, does have a silver lining.. Because of the search for Chelsea so many pet loving, animal caring folk, have come on board and helped to find missing pets… to date Team Chelsea has now found more than 1700 dogs and 1500 cats and reunited them with their loved ones…. 

As with any volunteer group, funds are needed to keep things flowing… with this in mind, Team Chelsea can always use donations such as food, litter, and cash donations to help with any vet fees… 

If you would like to help these fabulous people in any way… please check out the following Facebook pages..
