We work with this community, and with local city and county shelters rescuing cats and dogs, holding adoptions, and providing educational materials on animal care. We are a non-profit, charitable organization. We assist dogs and cats, and their owners in this community. Perhaps your life takes an abrupt turn. You are forced to move and must find a home for your faithful dog. Friends and family have not been successful in helping you; Your dog has been neutered and shots are current. You could contact a H.A.L.O. representative through our email: contacthalo@yahoo.com , or by calling H.A.L.O. voicemail at 925-473-4642. Next, we would contact you and arrange for you to bring your dog to to us to evaluate to see if he is a good fit for our adoption program. If he is, we may be able to fit him in to a foster home. If no foster home is available we may assist you in finding a home by listing him on our site and helping you show him. We will work with you in finding a new safe and loving home for your dog. This example demonstrates just one type of dilemma faced by families. We seek solutions to a variety of problems is this community.

Changing lifestyles, relocations and irresponsible breeding all create an abundance of Bassets who need new homes and make wonderful pets.

Best Friend Pet Adoption (BFPA) is a no-kill animal rescue organization based in central North Carolina. BFPA has no building, office, or shelter. We are an all-foster network committed to helping dogs and cats in need of homes. Individual donations are our most important source of income as we receive no public funding. Our purpose is to provide medical assistance, foster homes, and adoption services to previously lost, abandoned, abused, or neglected animals in Wake County, NC and the surrounding counties. Our mission is to educate this disposable society in which we live that every life should be valued and cherished and is directly linked to human responsibility and commitment. Almost all the animals we rescue require immediate medical attention. BFPA never turns away or euthanizes an animal because of the expense involved in returning them to good health. All our rescued animals are evaluated for temperament, examined by a veterinarian, vaccinated, microchipped (if possible) and sterilized, if age appropriate. Cats and dogs receive monthly flea/tick preventative and dogs also receive monthly heartworm preventative. The most important ingredients we provide to these animals are loving care and a safe haven -- something most of them have never experienced. These cats and dogs live in volunteer foster homes until we find them a loving permanent home, however long it takes. We match these precious beings to a single, couple or family who understand cats and dogs should be full participating members of the family. Our hope is that these animals never have to experience being unloved again. Since our beginning, BFPA has rescued and placed over 2,500 cats and dogs into their forever homes. BFPA was created in 1998 by two Raleigh-area women who had volunteered with other established rescues in the Triangle. Their dedication to help homeless dogs and cats has led to an organization that has grown to over 225 volunteers strong. BFPA received 501(c)(3) status in 1999.

Our mission is to rehabilitate and rehome dachshunds in need of a second chance at life. CTDR was founded in September of 2000. Our membership has grown yearly, providing more foster families and volunteers to help find loving, forever homes for our dachshunds.

Our mission is to provide the programs and adoptions needed to reduce and ultimately eliminate the unnecessary killing of shelter animals in Dallas.

We are committed to animal rescue; Previous ly formed two other organizations, we continue to rescue; pregnant, nursing dogs and cats, and orphan pups. We have chosen this path as this group of animals are the first to be euthanized in county shelters as the result of lack of funds, and space.

We are a group of volunteers who have individually worked with many other rescues prior to starting Underdog Rescue. We are an all breed rescue, and have a soft spot for bully breeds, medical cases and fear cases. We pull primarily from the County Shelter's daily Euthanasia list and place animals in our approved foster homes. We then network these homeless pets in order to rehome them into loving families. We require all adoption applicants to fill our our adoption application, receive a home visit, pay our adoption/rehoming fee and sign our legal adoption contract. All animals are fully vaccinated and altered prior to adoption being finalized. We do a standard 2 week Foster With Intent to Adopt trial period, in which the applicant has the opportunity to be sure the animal is a good fit for their home/family.

My husband and I have been rescuing animals for about 8 years by working with other rescue groups. We felt it was time for us to take matters into our own hands to get some of the many rescues we have adopted into their forever homes. We work with our local animal control to find homes for unclaimed dogs and we have many of the animals that others decided were to hard to get adopted. We want every animal to find the perfect home. Our local friends are a great help in getting to word out on those in need of homes. We are an environmentally friendly rescue. We utilize both veterinary medicine and natural healing to ensure the health of our animals.

We are a small rescue specializing in herding breeds. We pull dogs from the Southeastern United States, predominantly Florida, that are on death row and literally have just hours. We take dogs of all ages and do not turn down dogs that are ill or heartworm positive. I rescued a border collie 3 years ago from a shelter, and that led to the discovery that there were many in shelters. I have property to keep dogs on and wanted to help them, so here we are today. We have a network of fosters. The dogs receive basic training, house manners, leash training, crate training, are housebroken, and vetted. We try very carefully to match dogs with people to diminish returns, and we do indeed have few returns.
