We are a passionate group of volunteers committed to rescuing, rehabilitating, advocating for and creating happy endings for dogs who are often discriminated against based on their breed alone.
We are an approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization registered to rescue dogs in MA (and soon to be in NH as well).
Many of the dogs we strive to save are homeless, abused, neglected or simply misjudged, yet all of them deserve a second chance. Many never get that second chance because they are a breed which has been blacklisted from housing complexes, home insurance policies and even banned from living in certain cities or states.
Our goal is to help give these precious misunderstood dogs a second chance at the life that they deserve by placing them in loving foster and forever homes. We work closely within our communities and through local animal control facilities and shelters to save as many dogs as possible. Our network of volunteers, advocates and fosters work tirelessly to ensure that every dog we meet is given a chance to prove the world wrong.
