My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A few weeks ago we posted that we would be "baby sitting" Nemo for a few weeks until a spot in another rescue opened up. Well! His foster family says that he's totally settled in their home, they love him, he gets on GREAT with their 3 dogs, and he isn't going anywhere until he finds a forever home! ❤ He's a tripod and does have a seizure disorder which is easily managed with medication. Neither issue stands in his way of enjoying life!

This little dog is so very loved by his foster family and we're absolutely delighted. He'd been with his previous owner for years and we're so happy he won't have to make another transition until he finds a new forever family!

Nemo cuddles with his people, cuddles and plays with his canine companions in the home, and goes outside with them to do his business. He'd previously been using "pee pads" indoors, but Nemo has said no more of that, he wants to do what his doggy friends do! 🙂

We're so happy to be able to give Nemo his "soft landing" and make sure his future life is happy and bright! ❤

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We're a 100% foster-based rescue. We do hold adoption events that are posted on our Facebook and Instagram pages and also on our website. In terms of meeting our dogs, the usual process is for one of our volunteers to bring them to your home to meet you. We always want to see how our dog fits into a potential new foster or forever environment.

More about this rescue

All About the Dogs Rescue is a small rescue started by a group of experienced, dedicated rescuers who realized we can do more to help together than we could individually. We may be small, but we're mighty and are dedicated to helping as many dogs as we can. We don't just take easy dogs. We have helped dogs with medical conditions that have required substantial treatment, and dogs that need training to become the best versions of themselves. We work hard to take care of all of our dogs medical and training needs prior to adoption. Our goal is to make sure they have much happier futures than they have pasts, and that they and their new family mesh into a terrific new family unit.

As a small, fairly new rescue, we're still building our team! We always need fosters and volunteers. Please apply to join with us - the more fosters and volunteers we have, the more we can do to help!

As a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, we can only do what we do for the dogs because of generous donors. If you can donate to help us help them, we'd be so grateful!
