Rescue City

Our mission is to save the lives of dogs in desperate need while spreading public awareness against animal cruelty and overpopulation.Everyday we save vulnerable dogs from neglect, abuse, and euthanasia. We provide temporary safe foster homes and medical/emergency treatment to prepare these loving animals for their forever home. (This means we do not have a physical shelter location, and all of our dogs are in loving foster homes throughout the city.) Following a thorough – but hassle free – adoption process, we connect our dogs with loving, responsible, and committed permanent homes. Every dog is fully vetted and altered, micro-chipped, and vaccinated prior to finalization of adoption.Our commitment to our dogs goes beyond the adoption process, as we stress the importance of responsible pet ownership, and we educate our fosters, adopters, and community on what they can do to help dogs in need.

Meet Poe

70lb, 5 Year Old Poe is a perfect adult dog who loves to lounge at home, run around the park and is eager to be someone's loyal companion. Meet Mr. Poe-fect! This adorable black lab is looking for a life-long fetch partner to play, sniff, and swim with. Poe has been having a great time making friends in the city (human and dog alike) and can't imagine a day without belly rubs and long naps. Poe is eager to explore new places and responsive to learning new things (he has already mastered "sit" and "here" and is working on "stay"). If you're looking for a chill, sweet, playful companion, Poe might be your match!
