Hootie's Rescue Haven

Hootie’s Rescue Haven was founded by our veterinarian (Kim) and her husband (Tim) in memory of Kim's rescue dog, Hootie. We are a non-profit rescue for pets in need of medical care and forever homes. We are the only no-kill animal shelter in Franklin County. Animals come to our 40-acre farm from all walks of life; we provide each of them with unconditional love, safe and comfortable living quarters, plenty of time outdoors for walks and playing, the highest quality food, and the best medical care possible. Unless otherwise noted, all of the furry kids in our care live at the rescue, which is conveniently located in Kim and Tim's home (on the farm). We are also an animal sanctuary. We currently have 12 dogs, 11 cats, 3 horses, a pony, a rabbit, 18 chickens, and 3 roosters living full-time at our facility. Due to their individual history, temperament, and/or a continuing need for extensive medical care, these animals will live out their lives with us. In addition, we provide a respite for many animals as they are rehabbing on their way to a forever home. (We currently have 3 dogs in this phase of their journey.) Finally, we always have pets in need of forever homes. These numbers vary from day-to-day.
