Pawsitive Impact Pet Rescue

Animal rescue in Joliet, IL

We started our rescue to provide a safe harbor for the many unwanted,discarded ,neglected, abused pets that unfortunately are in need in large numbers at every animal control , shelter in the country.
We work with our local (75 mi) animal controls , shelters & other various sources to rescue , rehab & save as many pets as we can help.
We cannot do it without the support of the community & rely on donations to keep us running & able to help more pets.
We also need Foster homes & volunteers to help our pets transition over & become socialized, well trained , positive , confident pets.
