Rescue FAQs

s the number of homeless animals steadily increases, the standard of who animal control / shelters will "invest in" and who they won't, also keeps going up. This means that dogs are now being put down just because of their breed and/or unfavorable behaviors. What we at Mighty Mutts Dog Rescue (MMDR) strive to do, is "Adopt The Unadoptables". We take in the dogs that others would quickly turn away. For some, this may mean educating potential adopters about breed stereotypes. For others, this may mean intensive training and rehabilitation for "undesirable" habbits (which may include food agression, separation anxiety, etc.) We believe that there is a perfect home out there for every dog, but this does not mean that every dog fits every home. Because of our intense program with these dogs, we know what will and what will not be a good fit for them. We do not do blind adoptions, rather we screen each dog and each potential adopter to make the best match. We are a foster based rescue and would not be able to operate without the help of our foster families. If you would be interested in fostering, please -email us and we will contact you right away. If you have any questions about Mighty Mutts Dog Rescue; our goal or how we operate, please feel free to contact us for more information.
