The Dog House Rescue is the pet project of two dog lovers that wandered into a municipal animal shelter to pick up one new family member and left with seven. Like much of the public, we had mistakenly believed that most shelters are able to provide a no-kill haven for homeless animals. Due to overcrowding, the euthanasia rate at that facility alone is 80%. With the average dog having less than one week to find an adopter, it is easy to find great dogs who were simply born in an unfortunate geographic area.
We exist to help bridge the gap between loving homes seeking good citizen companions and good natured dogs looking for an opportunity to show their stuff. Those that have found themselves in a shelter (through no fault of their own) and would otherwise be euthanized for space are given medical treatment, spayed/neutered, and trained so that they can continue to be good citizens in their forever families.

We believe that every dog deserves to be healthy, receive a basic education, and spend its life with owners who "speak the same language". To help everyone understand each other as soon as possible, we require the completion of a basic obedience course with each newly adopted dog.
