Rescue FAQs
We started our rescue because there was not one in our area. We wanted to save dogs from kill shelters. More and more places are trying to go no kill, but there are so many animals out there desperate for new homes.
We save animals from kill shelters and give them full vetting before adopting them into loving furrever homes. We have adopted dogs out as far as Connecticut and as close as Austin, MN, where we are located. We will do what it takes to place an animal into a perfect home.
