The mission of Rusty's Legacy is to save the lives of as many adoptable dogs while working towards a no kill community.
We believe that community education and low cost or free spay neuter is the road to assure that no healthy, adoptable dog will die.

Rusty's Legacy rescues dogs from the Western Region of North Carolina. We pull dogs from high kill shelters, take in strays and accept owner surrenders when the shelter is the only other option for the dog.
