Rescue FAQs

We are a dog rescue focused on the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Indian Reservations and the nearby border towns. At LightShine Canine we bring the heart of the Lakota and the needs of the dogs together. Our goal is to rescue stray, abandoned, injured or abused dogs on the Pine Ridge Reservation with the help of Lakota youth and adults working on sobriety...and to find these dogs forever homes. Our adoption fees help us continue to do this and to provide community outreach to Tribal members in the form of dog food, vaccines and spay/neuter. Our dog rescue work program is geared to ensure that the dogs we rescue and the Lakota who assist us with this dream are changed forever.

Additional adoption info

Once you have selected the puppy or dog you are most interested in, an initial questionnaire is done. Then, a phone interview may be conducted. A reference from a Vet or another organization you have adopted from in the past will be needed and a home check may be required. Our adoption fee is $350 plus a $50 refundable spay/neuter deposit that is required. An adoption contract will need to be signed with a "no later than" agreed-upon date for spay and neuter. Spayed and neutered dogs are $400-$450. All of our dogs come with 30 days of pet insurance as well.
