Going To The Dogs Rescue

Animal rescue in Perry, NY

Going To The Dogs Rescue is a 501c3 all breed rescue dedicated to helping homeless pets find Forever homes. We are dedicated to finding the right match that we feel will be in the best interest of the dogs we have saved.
We rescue locally as well as out of state as needed. We never euthanize for space or lack of applications. We will keep a dog for a year if that is what it takes which sets us apart from many shelters and rescues in our area.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fees range anywhere from $100-400 depending on age, and costs involved in rescuing the particular animal. Puppies cost more because, well, they cost more! They are susceptible to more diseases, need more vaccines, and have more needs. We generally do not recover 100% of what we pay to care for these animals, so please keep this in mind when looking at our fees. If you were to get a "free" animal you would EASILY spend $400+ just to get the dog "up to date" on all medical procedures our rescue dogs already have! Plus you have a limited guarantee on major medical issues on dogs you adopt through us.

IMPORTANT: If you are interested in adopting a dog, you MUST fill out an application! We do NOT consider you for adoption until this is done. We dont want to waste your time, and the dogs time and we have this adoption procedure in place simply to prevent this. We appreciate your understanding in this procedure!
