Surry Animal Rescue

We are located in Mount Airy, NC. We are a very small volunteer organization and do not have a shelter. All of our rescues are in private foster homes and require schedule appointments with those foster families. We are a NC state certified non-profit and operate solely on donations. We DO accept out-of-state applications, but require the approved applicants to come to Mt. Airy, NC with any current dog(s) to meet the potential new family member. We do not ship our animals.
