While Orphaned Pets is still in existence, the two decided to branch off and establish their own non-profit. They resigned from the Orphaned Pets board of directors in Dec. 2016 to start anew. “We had a different vision of how we wanted to run an organization,” says Paige, president of Rosemarie’s Rescue Ranch. “To make it simple for qualified families.
