The Downtown Dogs Group NE
About Our Rescue Group
The Downtown Dogs Group is a small rescue group. While we have many highly adoptable dogs and puppies, we do also take dogs typically deemed "unadoptable" by other rescues for reasons such as age, breed or medical problems. We are a NO-KILL rescue and do not euthanize except in cases of severe, painful and non-treatable medical conditions.
Our Adoption Process
Potential adopters should contact the group for an application, and will undergo a screening process. Adoption fees vary but will include the cost of a transport to your area. Currently, all dogs are being fostered in TN; therefore, it is not possible to meet your pet prior to adoption. We have facilitated many adoptions through northern rescues and shelters. The process works very well, and is utilized by many rescues in the South. We use several dog transports that are very experienced and there are several New England stops from which to choose. Your pet will arrive current on vaccinations and already spayed/neutered. Thank you for your interest in our pets and for giving us a chance to adopt our babies out to wonderful families.
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.
