We are a brand new rescue group who was just formed in January 2019. All of our rescue dogs come from rural areas that have been abandoned, surrendered, stray, or otherwise homeless. Most of our dogs currently are rescued in Texas. We are in the process of obtaining our 501(c)(3) nonprofit status and should be receiving our state incorporation paperwork any day now (was submitted 4-5 weeks ago). We are happy to provide any documents needed to prove our nonprofit application status.

The Galax Carroll Grayson Animal Shelter is a regional shelter operated jointly by the three local governments under the requirements of the Code of the Virginia. The shelter accepts animals as required under the Code and works to place animals back with their owners, adopt them to new owners, or place them with other non-profit animal welfare agencies that may be able to adopt them. Animals are transferred on a first come first serve basis, so always check with Shelter staff prior to see if an animal is still available. If you are interested in becoming an animal welfare agency, please call 276-236-5773.

DITR's mission is to bring dogs in need together with the people that need them most - matching shelter dogs with people impacted by disability. We believe that the human-animal bond supports health and wellness on both sides of the human-animal equation resulting in benefits for the dogs and people alike. In order to accomplish our mission we carefully screen dogs in shelters with the goal of selecting dogs that appear to be a good fit for our applicants based on each applicant's lifestyle, and their particular wants and needs as they relate to an "ideal dog". Dogs are then fostered by a DITR associate for up to 30 days for further evaluation, socialization ,and basic training including crate training, house training, manners, and basic commands. The program was developed by and is overseen by professionals in the field of service dog training, animal behavior, veterinary medicine, and professionals from well established organizations that work with individuals impacted by disability. The goal of our careful screening, evaluation, and training and matching process is to ensure that dogs and individuals are well matched and to prepare dogs and their new families for a smooth transition - reducing barriers to adoption for individuals that struggle with the daily challenges of disability. Once dogs complete the in-home evaluation and training the dog's foster will complete an in-home orientation at the adoptive families home in order to demonstrate commands and review daily routines with the dog's new family.

We also educate people about spay/neuter and proper vaccinations and preventatives for their pets to prevent them from becoming ill.
