My story

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

DO YOU HAVE A HEATED GARAGE, SHED OR EXTRA BEDROOM? We desperately need a committed 3wk foster home to help this family. This sweet as can be mama was found wandering river banks. The Good Samaritan that found her, took her in to a local shelter. It was clear that she was nursing babies, but initially they were not found. After the person got mama Jaqueline to safety, she went back out to look for her puppies She located a community of unhoused families and began to inquire about puppies. One resident brought out a box of 10, 10 day old puppies. Luckily they eagerly gave them up so they could be reunited with mama. They are all doing well, but their time in the shelter posed its own risk. They were there for 9days with no interest so they had only 2days remaining before the entire family would’ve been euthanized. Luckily we got them out safe and into boarding. Their boarding time is up in just 4 days (Dec 14), but they have nowhere to go! The puppies are now a little over 4wks old so need to stay with their mama for at least a couple more weeks. We can then successfully separate them and start their process of finding their own forever home. It is a lot of puppies but we have just the right supplies needed so the foster job is manageable and fun. Jaqueline is a wonderful, gentle tempered, easy going girl that welcomes lots of affection and is also ok with her babies being handled. An easy going home that can give lots of cuddles to mama and the babies is required. During foster, all supplies are provided.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters should email info@k9rr.org to request an application. Once complete, the application can be returned via email and quickly reviewed. If approved, we then invite potential adopters to visit with one or more of the dogs that interest them. If the meet and greet goes well, we encourage a week long "trial adoption" to ensure a good match. During that week we communicate often and are available for support and guidance, via phone or email, 24/7.

Unless otherwise specified, K9 R&R adoption fees range from $350-$500 and include all vetting and microchip. We also provide ongoing training tips and help as needed, for the life of the dogs.

K9 R&R is a non-profit, volunteer based organization.

More about this rescue

K9 R&R rescues dogs from shelters and other various facilities across the nation, but focusing primarily on those throughout the west coast. In addition, we help re-home family pets of owners who can no longer care for them. K9 R&R assesses and works with every dog prior to adopting them out and continues to provide support to adopters for the entire life of the dog. K9 Rescue & Rehab was founded with the desire to provide a more thorough, inclusive, supportive approach to dog rescue and re-homing. When adopting a K9 R&R dog, you are not only adding a new family member, but are becoming part of an extended family that is always there to support you in hard times and celebrate with you in joyful ones.
