Adoptions

We are a group of women who have worked in the rescue field for over 2 decades. We wanted to save the dogs that other rescues turn down. The injured dogs, the Hw positive dogs, the dogs no one wants. The communities we save dogs from are overrun with unwanted, abandoned and neglected dogs. The shelters we save from are kill shelters. Dogs have a few days before they are euthanized for space.

Founded in 2007, Paws for Life Rescue (PFL) is a 501(c)3, tax-exempt, non-profit animal welfare organization run by a group of hardworking, dedicated volunteers. Paws for Life is a 5-star certified, all-breed dog and cat rescue, located in southeast Michigan. Also a top-rated nonprofit, PFL has the highest rating, platinum status, from GuideStar. PFL rescues homeless, neglected, abused and abandoned dogs, cats, puppies and kittens from overflowing shelters in southeast Michigan. PFL does not believe that time or money are acceptable reasons to end a life, ever. PFL uses a network of loving foster care homes where animals stay until their forever homes are found. PFL’s goal is to find the best match possible for the homeless pets in our care. PFL operates under the philosophies of Do No Harm, the Five Freedoms, force-free and fear-free, no breed discrimination - every animal is an individual, and no barriers, no roadblocks to finding every pet a home. Our organization focuses on humane legislation and education initiatives to permanently improve the lives, safety and future of companion animals in Michigan and surrounding areas. PFL has no paid staff and receives no government support. Every penny donated goes directly to the animals in our care, paying vet bills and purchasing needed supplies. In addition to rescue, PFL devotes resources to numerous local and national humane campaigns, such as Save Them All, End Dogfighting, Community Cat TNR and Eliminating Puppy Mills, as well as participation in community and national Disaster Animal Response Teams. ​ Paws for Life is also a proud member of Michigan Pet Alliance, the state's only association for animal welfare organizations, people who care about pets and pet owners.

Smelly Cat Rescue saves the lives of cats and kittens, especially the outdoor smelly ones, through rescue, adoption, spay/neuter services and community programs.

About We give dogs the most important ride of their life. Founded in 2012, our volunteer-based charity has transported close to 2,500 dogs across North America and internationally that are at the threat of being euthanized. Working in partnership with shelters, we identify and transport dogs on buses, cars and planes to pre-qualified homes in Alberta and the Eastern Region of B.C. When our dogs have adjusted from their journey and settled into their foster homes, they are either adopted by the foster or become available for adoption. We are addressing an international crisis about shelter over-populations, owner dog surrenders and discriminatory breed specific legislation. We believe that every dog deserves a new leash on life. We consistently seek fosters, funds, partners and volunteers. Registered charity #825476732RR0001 Our Vision Our vision is of a world where all pets are well cared for in loving homes for life & away from the threat of Breed Specific Legislation - because of how they look.

My husband and I began rescuing animals about 12 years ago. We have taken in animals that no one else wants (abandoned, sick, other medical problems, etc.). We provided them with food, shelter, medical and a loving home. We decided to become a non-profit rescue in order to expand, take in more needy animals and provide services such as adoption and education relating to the animals. We received our Non-Profit status and are working to get everything in place to have a smooth running rescue.

We are a foster base Animal rescue group we save dogs from shelters, off the street and do all vetting and adopt them out to there for ever homes.

We are a cage-free sanctuary and rescue with an average of 80-100 residents. We concentrate on adult and senior cats, providing them a happy home between homes until/if they find a forever home. We have a senior2senior foster program that matches senior citizens with cats age 10+. We also assist the community through referrals and information.

My name is Samantha Burns and I am the founder of Bebette's Bunny Rescue, Inc. My husband and I did everything wrong when we got our first bunny and realized how the correct care information is hard to find. We are hoping to help educate the public on proper bunny care and how they are amazing pets. We will also spay/neuter before adoption to ensure there is no possible breeding.
