My name is Sol!

We have many wonderful dogs and cats eagerly waiting for their FORever homes! Our adoption fee includes comprehensive, age-appropriate veterinary care: spay/neuter, microchipping, vaccinations, heartworm and flea prevention, and any medical care needed. Ready to adopt? Visit FORrescue.net, click on "Adopt", then select the appropriate application to apply for the pet you're interested in. If you have any questions about Friends of Rescue or our adoption process, feel free to reach out to us at info@FORrescue.net—we’re happy to help!

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.
