Rescue FAQs

Friends of Rescue is headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama with transport locations throughout the Great Lakes and New England. FOR is a volunteer-run, 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2009. Our mission is to save adoptable dogs and cats from overcrowded Southern shelters where limited space, minimal funding, and high intake rates often lead to euthanasia. We are not professional trainers or animal behaviorists—just dedicated individuals working together to give these animals a second chance. Every pet in our program lives in a loving foster home and receives age-appropriate veterinary care while awaiting adoption. Our ultimate goal is to match each animal with a committed, compassionate individual or family who will provide a FORever home.
Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Kentucky, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut, New York, Rhode Island, and New Jersey to name a few.
