About Noha: 
I am a wife and mother to 4-year-old Talya who is the inspiration behind the Rescue. My interests in dog rescue started four years ago when I founded my first Rescue, “Furever Homes,” and served as its Director and Manager for 3 years and board member for one year. I decided to open my own rescue in 2020 which is when I started Talya’s. A big motivating for starting my own Rescue was to be able give a lot of time and focus to the rehabilitation process. A huge component of healing isn’t just the medical administration, but the mental and psychological rehabilitation. I believe the mental component is just as important, having seen first-hand what a gentle and loving conversation can do to a dog’s psychology.
