Where The Wild Things Are Rescue

Dog rescue in Augusta, GA

Where The Wild Things Are Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit and licensed all-breed dog rescue composed of a network of fosters and volunteers who work together to rescue and rehabilitate sweet, loving, adoptable dogs from Augusta, GA and surrounding areas. We specialize in rescuing and rehabilitation of Guardian dog breeds (Pit-bulls, Rottweilers, Mastiffs, etc.) although no dog is too big or small for our hearts…What makes us different is we are a small and intimate organization who takes time with each of our rescues and adopters to ensure every Wild Thing is perfectly matched for their fur-ever home and fur-ever life with you.
