Homes for Happy Dogs

Homes for Happy Dogs exists to provide quality all breed canine rescue and re-homing services, community education and training and animal welfare service and support. We are a privately funded New Hampshire organization.

Our Founders, Stephanie and Brandon Green are originally from Memphis TN where they still own and maintain a small farm. Stephanie has extensive firsthand experience as a direct southern rescue and responsible for thousands of adoptions over the last 5 years. Stephanie and Brandon posses a wealth of knowledge and skills that embrace best practice policies and procedures, in order to deliver great adoptable dogs.

The family fell in love with New England over the years and started to look for the right piece of property to buy as a destination shelter and physical location for a NH based Rescue. Stephanie holds a long well respected relationship with the NH Department of Agriculture and is viewed as someone who "does it right".
