Red Hook Dog Rescue is not a shelter. We started off doing rescue and moved into training. (A Better Dog, Training and Consulting, APDT# 62321, Harriet is a certified trainer www.ccpdt.org) Our main objective is to help keep your dog in your home through training and management.
We tend to specialize in special needs dogs. we started with deaf dogs and now work with blind dogs and also blind deaf dogs. We love seniors too

We know this is not always possible, so we can help you re-home your dog. It would be ideal if the dog could remain in your home until a foster or placement is found, otherwise we require a financial contribution to cover boarding and medical costs.

We get to know our dogs very well and take great pride in matching the right dog with the right family. Fosters, volunteers, sponsors and contributions welcome Helps us help those who are really in need
