Areas Pregnant Dog Rescue, Inc. serves
Our mission is to provide pounds and shelters a safe place to send their pregnant dogs, newly whelped litters and orphan pups. Our goal, Pregnant Dog Rescue, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill rescue organization for unwanted pregnant dogs destined for euthanasia. Pregnant Dog Rescue has provided pounds and shelters a safe place to send their pregnant dogs, newly whelped litters and orphan pups. Most of the pregnant dogs taken in were dumped at the pounds, which are not capable of caring for the mom and her newborn puppies. We are not breed-specific, nor do we pick-and-choose; as long as we have the space and funds, the dogs are saved!
Once in our care, the true rescue effort begins. We, along with our veterinarian, make an in-depth assessment of any medical conditions, which are treated at once. Pregnant moms are assisted with whelping (which most of the time is during the middle of the night). All too frequently the mom is emaciated and unable to provide milk for her babies; the puppies are then placed on round-the-clock bottle feeding.
Before becoming available for adoption, the mom will be spayed, dewormed, tested for heartworms, vaccinated, and started on heartworm & flea prevention. The puppies are also spayed/neutered, dewormed, vaccinated, and also started on flea prevention.
Pregnant Dog Rescue relies solely on adoption fees and donations. Veterinary fees and special-need costs are barely covered. We are always accepting donations and volunteers. We appreciate any (seemingly) little help and any time that our volunteers can spare. No salaries are paid to anyone - this is the true meaning of "a labor of love."
Our Mission
is to spay and neuter every pet before leaving Pregnant Dog Rescue, find them loving, permanent new homes and to educate the younger generation on proper pet care.
Our History
Pregnant Dog Rescue was started in June 2010 by Rod & Jen Hale. The original intention of Pregnant Dog Rescue was to take in and rescue one pregnant dog at a time - but that was very short-lived. Due to the overwhelming need Pregnant Dog Rescue was suddenly caring for several mother dogs and their litters and turning away several on a daily basis due to a lack of space and funds. Pregnant Dog Rescue is run out of Rod & Jen’s quiet loving home in Griffin, GA where they are currently caring for multiple litters of puppies.

Adoption Coordinators
Adoption Coordinators are our volunteers who see each adoption through from start to finish. They play a vital role at Pregnant Dog Rescue!
Coordinators are assigned a specific group of dogs on our site. When an application comes in for one of these dogs, coordinators begin by interviewing the applicant over the phone followed by checking references. If approved, the adoption coordinator puts the applicants and fosters in touch or helps to facilitate a meet and greet with our local dogs.
Each application takes approximately one-hour to process over the course of one to two days on average.
Fosters
The more dogs we can foster, the more dogs we can save.
We’re always looking for foster caregivers to provide our dogs with safe homes and lots of TLC until they’re adopted.

Fundraising Managers
When we rescue dogs, they often need vaccines, medical treatment and rehabilitation. To help us continue our life saving work, we’re always looking for people with creative fundraising ideas.
Grant Writers
One of the biggest boosts to the work we do comes from grants from organizations like the ASPCA. We need people who can identify grants and help us submit applications.
Transportation
We often need help getting our dogs to and from the vet, to foster or adoptive homes, and to pet fairs. We also get donations of food, toys and veterinary supplies that need to get delivered from the donor.
Marketing & Communication
One of the simplest ways to help is to spread the word about what we do. Link to our webpage, tweet about us, and tell your friends. We also need someone to post news items on our website.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
