Additional adoption info

Rescue dogs are very important to us, therefore, we screen potential pet parents carefully. We don't want anyone to make a hasty decision but a thoughtful and well planned one. Adopting on 'impulse' is usually not the best idea. There is an application for adoption where a personal and vet reference will be requested. We may also conduct a home visit. Usually the adoption process requires two visits to our rescue. The first is a meet and greet. Then a second one is scheduled after all parties have had time to discuss the addition of the new pet. This is when the agreement is signed and you take your new baby home with you!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All of our dogs are housed in private homes or Happy Tails Pet Place in Terre Haute, IN. Therefore, an appointment will be necessary to meet them. We will be doing public adoption events as well and those will be listed on our Facebook page and/or website.

When you adopt a rescue dog you are saving TWO lives: the one you adopt and another unwanted dog who now has room in the rescue!

More about this rescue

ALL Creatures Matter is a non-profit 501(c)(3) rescue that specializes in puppy mill dogs and rescues from high kill shelters in addition to owner surrenders. We maintain high standards of care for all our rescues. They will receive the best medical care, spaying/neutering, all shots, dewormings, any needed medications, treatment for diseases they may have acquired from mills and pounds, and they are housed in private homes where they will get individualized attention and love. We feel this is the best way to handle these dogs since they usually require extra attention because of their backgrounds. They are treated as valued members of their foster families where they are loved, played with, socialized and given some basic training.

ACM exists to save lives by pulling from high kill shelters and rescuing from puppy mills. We also educate on proper care of animals in an effort to decrease the high population of unwanted animals. All dogs will be spayed or neutered BEFORE leaving this rescue.

ACM is comprised of volunteers as a non-profit rescue. We rely solely upon donations and adoption fees to help these dogs. Contributions for vet care is always needed and appreciated!

We are always in need of volunteers to clean cages, walk dogs, make pick-ups, etc. We also need donations of items such as white towels, cleaning supplies, cages/crates, toys, blankets, treats, dry dog food and paper towels.

We take financial donations through the Chipin we have established:
