Mountaineers For Mutts

Focus is on saving pets from the local Monongalia Canine Adoption Center (MCAC) but we support the general public to help them rehome pets as needed. Our target is to help the MCAC to reduce euthanasia due to lack of homes. We work closely with the MCAC staff to specifically target the hard placement cases whether due to health, behavior or breed unpopularity issues - in addition to overcrowding.
We evaluate/temperament test each pet to try to give it the most accurate and descriptive profile to ensure a forever home placement - either through us or through screened and approved rescue groups.
