Rescue FAQs

At Lavender Run Rescue, we believe every dog deserves a second chance—especially those who’ve been misunderstood. We specialize in rescuing dogs from euthanasia lists, providing them with compassionate, individualized training and rehabilitation. Through patience, expertise, and love, we work to heal emotional wounds, build trust, and help each dog blossom into their best self. Our mission is to transform lives—both canine and human—by giving these resilient dogs the opportunity to find safe, supportive, and lasting homes.
