Stanly County Humane Society, Inc. is a non-profit corporation recognized by the IRS as 501(c)3. All contributions are tax deductible. Our mailing address is PO Box 1632 Albemarle, NC 28001. We are located only 1 hour from Charlotte and 1 1/2 hours from Greensboro, however, we do not have an actual shelter at this time. We feature both pure and mixed breed dogs that are usually under 20 pounds. Our dogs are fostered in a climate so that we know them well and can place them in the kind of home they need. Our goal is for both the pet and the adoptive family to be very happy with each other.

Cooper's Chance Animal Rescue, a national, 501c3 nonprofit, all volunteer animal rescue. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home unwanted, abused and neglected animals. We rescue all animals and are not breed specific. We also focus our efforts on larger dogs or elderly dogs in need of extra care. We are not a shelter and do not accept strays, all of our rescued pets are placed into loving foster homes and receive one on one attention, complete vet care, training and socialization. We also educate the public on proper and responsible pet ownership through nonprofit partnerships, public education programs and grass root efforts within communities. Currently we are striving to raise funds to initiate the building of the country's first eco friendly and environmentally sustainable no kill shelter! This awesome facility, open to the public, will offer not only a clean, safe place for animals of all shapes and sizes...we will be working to save our planet too! A completely Green Building, we will reuse and recycle everything we can to insure our paw print on earth is minimal.

Pug Rescue of North Carolina (PRONC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the Pug Dog Breed. We rescue pugs in crisis, carefully nursing them back to health, physically and emotionally, in individual PRONC volunteer’s homes. Each pug is treated as family until such time as a suitable home, which has been screened and approved by the membership, can be located. Many pugs come to PRONC with minor to severe health challenges. We make every effort to save each animal that comes into our care, saving euthanization for only the extreme, and very rare case where there is no other reasonable option. We have every pug evaluated by a veterinarian and they are spayed/neutered, heartworm checked, micro-chipped and brought up to date on all vaccinations. At this time, due to limited resources, we are only accepting pure bred pugs. However, we rescue pugs of any age or health. Our ability to accept an animal is limited to available space and funding. Thanks to you, we have saved many pugs from being put down at overcrowded animal shelters. PRONC has no paid employees and is supported through your kind gift donations and through the wonderful efforts of our family of volunteers. As you can imagine, meeting the needs of so many homeless, neglected and abused animals, is a financial challenge. Won't you consider making your tax deductible donation today? You will feel great knowing that you brought some light into a little dog’s life who will then go on to bring happiness into someone’s home. If you love the pug breed and would like to join us in opening your heart and home to foster pugs in need, we would love to hear from you. We need kind hearted and dedicated volunteers in the Carolinas and surrounding states. We are a publicly supported organization described in sections 170 (b) (1) (A) (vi) of the IRS code We are a 501 ( 3 ) (c) nonprofit organization, and your donations are tax deductible

to save lives

We are a small non-profit (501(c)(3)) no-kill adoption shelter meeting the needs of the homeless and abandoned pets. All of the dogs that we take in are given a personality test to make sure they will fit in a kennel situation. They are all heart-worm tested and if positive, treated. Our dogs stay in big covered yard runs unless the weather is bad and then they are put up in their indoor kennels. Our cats are all FIV and leukemia tested before we take them in. If they are positive, we will not take them. We do not want to expose any of our cats/kittens to disease. We have a cageless kitten room and a cageless teenage/adult cat room. All of our animals are spayed/neutered and if too young the adopters are given a voucher to have it done when they reach the right age. We vaccinate/worm all our animals immediately. We do not take in Pit Bulls or Chows. We want to make a difference in these animals lives; we are their voice and we want to find them the best forever homes possible.
