Paws Crossed Dog Rescue

Dog rescue in Hedgesville, WV

We are a very small group of volunteers who pull dogs from rural, high-kill shelters and place them in safe & loving foster homes until they are adopted. We do not have a physical shelter or kennel. All of our dogs are in individual family foster homes. We will move the dog for a meet & greet once an adoption application is approved.
