Rescue FAQs

Harriet Zucker heads up Red Hook Dog Rescue, a labor of love that has saved countless dogs and other needy animals for more than a decade. We are based in Brooklyn, NY and adopt to the NY/NE PA/NJ/CT area.

We focus on rescuing special-needs dogs (blind, deaf, amputee, etc) in the New York area. We adopt throughout the Northeast. We are ALWAYS in need of more foster homes, both in the NYC area and in New Hampshire/Southern Maine where we have volunteers! If you can foster PLEASE message us!

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee is $250 for young-senior dogs. Puppy adoption fee is $350. We require a short adoption application, home visit and reference checks. We are very hands-on and may require new dog owners to attend obedience lessons (easy, and fun -- and as we pay for them, free).
