Adoptions

Lee Shore is a collective of women with a shared passion for animals. The rescue was founded in 2017 by Paulina Putnam and Alison Shanahan, who had each worked in rescue for a number of years and recognized a need for a rescue that served animals who couldn't be adopted right away. These animals were pregnant, too young, or in need of physical or psychological rehabilitation. Both Paulina and Alison had her own unique talents. Paulina had successfully rehabilitated many dogs when others had pronounced the case impossible. Alison had a passion for the mothers and babies. They started Lee Shore with these distinct goals in mind: to bring in those rehab, maternity, and pediatric cases who aren't ready for adoption now, but who can be made ready for life as a companion with the right care. ​This remains our mission. In the three years since our founding, we have saved over four hundred animals, and we hope to continue to grow and fight for the voiceless.

Mesquite Animal Pawtners is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that helps Mesquite animals both in and out of the shelter. We are focused on programs that will reduce the number of animals entering the shelter such as trap-neuter-return for community cats, assistance with spaying and neutering of owned pets, and public education. We support Mesquite Animal Services by encouraging fostering and volunteerism. We are dedicated to bettering the lives of animals in Mesquite.

We are a dog rescue that accepts all breeds of dog. We utilize fosters to house our dogs until we can find suitable permanent homes for them.

TNR Utopia is a small, no-kill, all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) rescue with a focus on the trap, neuter, and return (TNR) of community cats in northern Queens, NYC. We also educate the public about living with community cats. Of course, when dealing with community cats, we often encounter kittens who are small enough to be socialize and adopted into forever homes. We are a small group of volunteers and dedicated animal lovers who spend our spare time sterilizing community cats and rescuing friendly cats and kittens. Although small, we do our best to help all that contact us. We are TNR certified through the Mayor's Alliance for NYC's Animals, NYC Feral Cat Initiative in partnership with the ASPCA.

GLWR is a foster based rescue organization and does not have a traditional physical kennel facility like many humane societies or animal shelters do. Our dogs are typically housed in family homes and cared for by their foster families until we find a forever home for them. Therefore, our process to meet dogs and to adopt may be different than a normal animal control facility, humane society or animal shelter. All-volunteer group Great Lakes Weimaraner Rescue is an all-volunteer group and our mission is the rescue and placement of Weimaraners in the Great Lakes Region. We work with a network of shelters in several states, as well as owners needing to relinquish their dog. We are a determined group of people, but we couldn’t do anything without your support. Dogs come first We’ve stopped counting the hours of sleep lost with sick dogs and the miles driven to spring others from shelters. The volunteers of GLWR sacrifice daily to give each dog a chance to enjoy a good life. Your generous assistance with driving, gas cards, phone work, fundraising and dog care makes it possible for us to come to the aid of hundreds of dogs. No-kill philosophy GLWR adheres to a no-kill philosophy, and we will never euthanize a dog to make space for another. The waiting list for Weims in need never ends and we do all we can to take dogs in before they, well, cease to need us anymore. Occasionally a dog dies before we can take it in – haunting our dreams and fueling our determination to never lose another. Happy, healthy dogs From the moment a dog is part of GLWR, it’s medical and emotional needs are assessed and provided for. We believe in doing everything possible to help dogs make the transition into their “forever” home. Medical costs are our largest expense and your donations allow us to address health issues without delay. Why we do it? We are here for the Weimaraners and the Weimaraners alone. Our reward lies not in the accolades of being “rescuers”, but in the gratitude we see in the bright, loving eyes of dogs that once were sad, dejected and without hope. With your help, we’ve given them a chance to experience the warmth of a family that will love and care for them.
