Hope Animal Rescues

Dog rescue in Godfrey, IL

We are "Hope" for animals left to die at animal control facilities that use the gas chamber to euthanize homeless pets. We lobby our government to ban the use of these chambers and until that day arrives will save as many as we can from that inhumane fate.
Adopting a pet from us is like saving two lives. The life you take home and the life your adoption makes room for.
We are a not-for-profit organization and 100% of our funds are put back into the rescue and re homing of pets.
