Border Collie

animals rescued from local shelters. all spayed/neutered prior to placement and vaccinated. Non profit 501 c3 organization.

We are a group of dedicated rescue people who want to save as many dogs and cats from the local shelters before they are euthanized. On the average....there are only 1 out of 10 animals that get adopted from a shelter. We are dedicated to helping increase pet adoptions by offering a shelter animal a foster home to go to while awaiting an adoptive family to find them on our Petfinder website. Won't you please adopt a shelter animal? Or won't you please help us foster a shelter animal while we are looking for their perfect home? What a gift you can give a dog or cat by giving them a place to feel safe and secure....a forever home or a foster home. Won't you help us at Critter Cavalry give them a chance to have a life?

We are a group of VOLUNTEER fosters that saw the need for helping larger, mixed breed dogs. We try to keep dogs from entering shelters . When possible we also save dogs from the urgent lists of "kill" shelters in the Mid South. We are a VERY SMALL group trying to save one dog at a time.

Beagles & Buddies rescues purebred and mixed Beagles, as well as other hounds and small dogs, from public shelters, dog owners and other rescues. Each dog receives a medical exam and any necessary medical and other treatment. All vaccinations are updated based on the history available for the dog. Beagles & Buddies spays or neuters all dogs to assist in the fight against pet overpopulation. We observe their temperament and personality and match them up with other kennel buddies they can play with. Beagles & Buddies finds safe, new homes for almost all of its dogs. In accordance with our no-kill policy, our rescue facility keeps any dog that is not adopted.

Community Animal Rescue Effort (C.A.R.E.™) is a 501c3 all volunteer organization that works to find homes for unwanted and abandoned animals, serves as an educational and counseling resource for communities on Chicago's North Shore and for current and prospective pet owners, and works to reduce pet overpopulation. We currently work out of Evanston's municipal animal shelter. Since our founding in 1987, C.A.R.E. has been responsible for the adoption of thousands of dogs and cats that would have otherwise been euthanized. C.A.R.E. provides medical treatment and conducts all adoptions for the shelter animals. Each day, the 100+ C.A.R.E. volunteers assume responsibility for total care of all Shelter animals. Each volunteer puts in anywhere from 3 to 30+ hours every week, both at the Shelter and in activities outside the Shelter, performing functions such as: - Walking Dogs - Exercising Cats - Cleaning cages and kennel areas - Bathing and grooming animals - Working with frightened, anti-social animals - Paying for veterinary care, inoculations, and vaccinations - Transporting animals to and from veterinary clinics - Working with veterinarians at the Shelter as part of a testing/inoculation program initiated by C.A.R.E. - Medicating animals as directed by veterinarians - Feeding & watering animals on evenings, weekends, and holidays - Washing bowls, toys, towels, bedding, etc. - Working with Evanston Animal Wardens as needed to comply with city rules & assure accreditation by the Department of Agriculture - Interviewing all potential adopters in-depth and then matching appropriate animals with adopters - Conducting all adoptions, filling out required paperwork, administrating follow-up program - Supplementing city food budget with volunteer funds to provide higher quality food for Shelter animals - Purchasing additional equipment not in city budget to maintain quality care for Shelter animals (including such things as cages, kennel fan, vaccine refrigerator, washing machine, clothes dryer, etc.) - Conducting on-going fund-raising to raise monies to cover all expenses - Conducting community out-reach programs to educate residents on responsible pet care Volunteers are frequently called upon to take animals into their homes and "foster" them in times of overcrowding at the Shelter and when animals need special care.
