Illiana Rescue

Animal rescue in Dyer, IN

We are a small, 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization of volunteers.

We save dogs and cats from euthanasia, abuse and neglect.

We work closely with local shelter management, veterinarians and community members, serving Northwest Indiana-Lake County.

We mainly focus on animals in dire need, such as death row dogs and cats at high-kill shelter facilities, severely neglected or badly beaten owner surrendered pets from veterinary hospitals and animal impounds.

We provide proper care, medical treatment, therapy and social rehabilitation for the animals in foster homes.

We give animals a second chance at long, happy, healthy lives in loving adoptive homes.
