Key to Happiness Rescue and Transport, Inc. - WI Chapter

Dog rescue in DeForest, WI

KTHR is based in Wisconsin and our goal is to save as many fur babies in the shelters as we can.

KTHR is an all-breed dog and animal rescue that specializes in rescuing abused, neglected or unwanted animals at high risk of euthanasia and providing temporary foster homes and necessary medical care until a permanent home can be found.

We strive to educate the public on the importance of spaying and neutering of animals to prevent pet overpopulation and prevent animals cruelty and suffering through education and activities to the public.

We are committed to finding each family and abandoned dog their perfect match and to make each rescue rewarding and permanent.

We work with other rescues currently who have available space in their program. Our goals are simply to save lives and educate and fill each home with the love a deserving pup.
