About Our Rescue Group...
Helping Hands Pet Rescue, Inc is an all-volunteer, non-profit, adoption-guarantee rescue group for companion animals. Most of our animals are saved from the euthanasia list at Alachua County Animal Services, our county's only open-admission municipal shelter.
We work to end euthanasia in our local shelters through a high volume of rescues and adoptions.
Helping Hands strives to provide the best possible outcomes for homeless animals facing certain death by rescuing as many of them as possible and finding them the best homes possible.
Helping Hands pairs people and pets with complementary lifestyles and needs, and educates owners on veterinary and behavioral care for long, happy lives.

All pets come spayed/neutered, microchipped, current on vaccinations, dewormed, heartworm negative (dogs), tested for FELV and FIV (cats), and current on heartworm prevention and flea control.

The average fee to adopt a dog or puppy is $125, but can range from $50-$250.
The average fee to adopt a cat is $50, but we often have special reduced fees at our adoption events.
The average fee to adopt a kitten is $75.

We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
Helping Hands Pet Rescue, Inc focuses our efforts primarily on animals in Alachua County. The majority of our animals come from the euthanasia list at Alachua County Animal Services. We also take animals from surrounding counties if needed.
Helping Hands Pet Rescue, Inc does not require that an adopter be local. However, the potential adopter must meet the animal in person before being allowed to adopt.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Frosty, a Gainesville Greyhound dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Greyhound for sale in Gainesville, or seeking a Greyhound dog from a breeder in Gainesville.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gainesville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Gainesville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Greyhound breeders who help with Greyhound rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gainesville paves the way for another one to be saved.
