About Lonely Hearts Animal Rescue

We are a small K-9 rescue that focuses on pregnant moms and litters of puppies. Most of our dogs come from rural areas of Kentucky, WV or Ohio. Often a high kill shelter or the rescue group in that area will reach out to our organization as the pups last chance.

At this time, we do not have a public facility. All of our pets are fostered in comfortable homes with volunteer foster families.

If you have found a pup you would like to adopt, we encourage you to fill out the on-line application. After reviewing the applications that have come in for a particular dog, we begin the process of finding the best home for the rescue dog.

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Frederick, MD.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

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, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
