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.

The purpose of the Rutherford County Humane Society is to strengthen and protect the relationship between humans and companion animals and to foster the welfare of the dog and cat population of Rutherford County. Our number one goal is to promote and assist in spay/neuter to prevent the births and subsequent euthanasia of hundreds of unwanted animals. We also aim to prevent cruelty and abuse by active Humane Education. The Rutherford County Humane Society was founded and obtained tax-exempt,501(C)(3) status in 1976, with the present chapter operating since 1993. We are licensed by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture to operate a small adoption center that can house only cats.

We have a seven member Board of Directors who serve for three-year periods and a slate of officers who are elected on a yearly basis.
