Loyal Heart Puppy Rescue

About Our Rescue Group

We are a small group of people dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of puppies in need. Our puppies all come from the efforts of our affiliate southern rescues and their wonderful dedicated foster homes that take care of these babies for so long before coming northeast. The majority of dogs and puppies in the south will be euthanized within days of being dropped off at a shelter. They are "pulled" and placed into quarantine for, at least, 4 weeks, with a private foster family until they are fully vetted. Once this is completed they head north to new foster homes & furever homes!

Come Meet our Pets

We do not have one physical location. Our puppies are kept in private foster homes in the south for 4-6 weeks or longer, as part of a family, to help prepare them for transition into their northern foster homes and forever homes and also to have enough time to have them completely vetted, including, at least, three sets of vaccines for their health and safety.

Our Adoption Process

Our adoption process involves the $275 adoption fee, the $35 health certificate cost, the $115 transport cost, a completed application, vet reference, interview/home visit and an adoption contract must be signed.

The adoption fee goes to the vetting and personal care of the puppy you are adopting as well as the care of other puppies coming into rescue, the health certificate cost is paid, by the rescue, to the vet and the transport company receives the transport cost.

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
