Purrs, Paws, and Claws - DE Chapter

Animal rescue in Wilminton, DE

We take in dogs that nobody wants and place them into loving homes. Not only do I take in owner turn ins but I also pull from kill shelters in my area. We are just about always full. We do our best to place dogs and puppies into great homes so that we have room to take in more. The shelters are full here in South Carolina and we try our best to save as many as we can. We can not save them all but we do try. At this time I am no longer taking in cats and kittens.

Rescue FAQs

We adopt our pets into loving and approved home in South Carolina, surrounding states and Northern states like Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland and surrounding states. We get our dogs from high kill shelters in our area. We take the ones who's time are up and scheduled for Euthanasia. Our dogs are placed into foster homes until they find their new forever homes.

Additional adoption info

Must fill out a northern application. Understand the fee, and care of the pet that the person is wanting to adopt. If you change your mind before transport leaves I do understand but would like to know before I put that dog or puppy on the transport. Once the application has been approved, we will email you and let you know. You will then wait for the next transport for your new family member. We do ask for a deposit to hold your new dog or puppy. This deposit is taken off the adoption fee. Fee's are different for different dog/puppies. Please ask when you email for an applicaiton.
