About Our Rescue Group:

We have been rescueing dogs for 3 years now and have transported well over 600 in that time to no-kill shelters in northern IL, IN, WI and Michigan. We should have our 501c3 any time now. We have applied and keep up rescueing dogs while we wait to be able to raise money. We have purchased a cargo van for transport. We shelter and train dogs. We started so that we could save the large dogs in shelters who are not adoptable because they are unruly. We train them and find fantastic homes for them or transport them to other shelters who have larger numbers of adoptions than our little community.

Come Meet our Pets:

Any time at the shelter at the address listed. An appointment must be made first. We also do adoption days at Rural King and PetSmart.

Our Adoption Process:

They must fill out an adoption contract, be approved by the board and adoption fee is $150.

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 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.
