Rescue FAQs

Oklahoma Licensed Rescue Number 95 Oklahoma is a bad place for animals. It's the only state that saw an increase in shelter euthanasia rates in 2019. 2020 probably didn't look any different. Strays everywhere, people dumping dogs in the country to fend for themselves, litters of puppies and kittens because people are too cheap or too lazy to fix their pets. We help these poor souls and find them loving homes in northern states.
We rescue out of Oklahoma and adopt out in northern states.
