Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:

Our non-profit Rescue is located in rural Cambridge, Illinois, just north of historical Bishop Hill. Our mission is to rescue Great Pyrenees and Great Pyrenees mixes and place them into the forever loving homes that they deserve. We are working towards becoming a midwest region rescue as our foster program grows.

About Our Rescue Group:

We are a relatively young but determined rescue. As the founder, I owned my first pair of Great Pyrenees for 14 years. After they both passed I adopted another Pyr from a rescue. From there, I started to do foster work for that rescue through my pet resort and spa that I own and operate. Seeing the need, last year I founded my own rescue and have continued to grow since then.

We are trying to grow and develop our rescue with the intention of becoming a midwest regional rescue. We are currently trying to expand our foster program to meet these needs.

Come Meet our Pets:

We have regular hours with our resort and have after hours by appointment. Rescues in foster homes are available for meeting by appointment also.

Our Adoption Process:

All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, heartworm tested, vaccinated against Bordetella, DHLP and Rabies, as well as microchipped prior to adoption. We require a $250 adoption fee that will partially recover our expenses. We do require that an adoption application be filled out and submitted. Upon receipt we will check veterinary and personal references and then schedule a home visit. *A fenced in yard is required, no invisible fencing is permitted.

Our Adopted Pets:

We have helped lots of pets connect with loving and caring owners. Check out our adopted pets list!

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.
