We rescue dogs and cats in our community that have been abandoned, neglected or surrendered. We provide veterinary care, safe shelter and adopt them to permanent loving homes. We are committed to the ethical treatment of animals, promoting spay and neuter to end overpopulation and unwanted animals, reuniting missing pets with their owners and educating pet owners on the importance of proper veterinary care.
Our foster based rescue cares for dogs and cats that are in need of loving homes. By placing animals in foster homes we are providing a safe, happy and secure environment which will help them adjust to family life and prepare them for adoption. We believe that opening your heart and home to a rescue pet by fostering and/or adopting is one of life’s most rewarding experiences.

Additional adoption info
Once you submit your application, it will be sent to the foster coordinator and foster. Please give us at least 48 hours to review your application. Someone will contact you to let you know if the dog or cat is available and get to know you a little better. We are all volunteers, so please be patient while we complete the application process.
There will be no rehoming, selling or abandoning your pet once you have adopted from us.
There are some instances when your application will be denied, it could be that you are not in our adoption area, your application was not completed in entirety, your vet references or personal references did not recommend adoption at this time. You will receive an email with an explanation. You can contact us if there is something we missed or if you’d like to discuss your application in more detail.
