Rescue FAQs

Our Experience and Approach to Rescue With over 60 years of combined experience in veterinary medicine and competitive arenas for both horses and dogs, our team brings a wealth of knowledge to the world of animal rescue. We receive calls from both Wisconsin and Illinois, often from shelters asking for individuals who initially thought raising a litter would be enjoyable but found it more challenging than expected. When we take in these puppies, we ensure that the owners agree to spay or neuter the parents, and we cover the cost as our commitment to ending preventable breeding cycles. By stepping in before these puppies reach shelters, we protect them from exposure to parvovirus and other illnesses common in high-stress environments. Given our small size and limited resources, we must be selective in the cases we take on. However, even when we cannot take in every litter, we’re still committed to funding and arranging for parents to be altered, directing many families to appropriate resources. The animal rescue community is vast, and there are many ways to help—this is ours. We may each do things differently, but together, we all play a role in making a difference. Our license number is DS-537371, we are a 501c3 rescue

Additional adoption info

We follow the National No Kill Advocacy Guidelines, which prioritize conversation-based adoptions and education to help find the best homes for our animals. We believe that ensuring a good home doesn’t require unnecessary or excessive rules.
