My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Penny!

She's sweet, affectionate, mellow, and ready to spend her golden years in your arms! She loves hugs, gentle pats, and even some good forehead kisses. Penny even shows off a little half smile when she is nervous or excited!

Penny has had positive experiences with both cats and dogs and would likely do well in a home with a few furry companions to spend her time with. She can take a little time to trust new dogs but after she has settled in she is very passive.

Unfortunately, Penny's prior owner passed away. A friend of her prior owner took her on but he didn't feel he could give her the care she needed. Penny is very overweight and needs an adopter who is willing to keep her on her diet and give her plenty of walks to get her down to a healthy weight. She has a hard time walking long distances or squatting to go potty so she needs to be kept on a strict routine to keep her healthy.

If you're looking to give this older gal the golden years she deserves, call the Ranch to come meet her today!

All of our dogs receive the best in veterinary care and are spay/neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated.

The standard adoption donation fee for all dogs and puppies is $300

(unless a reduced fee applies )

Additional adoption info

You will first need to stop by our rescue and meet our dogs! If interested in one of our dogs you will need to fill out an application. We also do a home visit if in the area, to make sure you have a secure and a dog-friendly environment. If out of the Siskiyou county area we can easily make other arrangements. Our adoption donation is $195.00. We have a reduced rate for seniors, the disabled, and veterans. Our "Senior for Senior" program offers a further discount and can help with the cost of dog ownership. The adoption fee for puppies who grew up at the Ranch (or in foster here) includes spay/neutering when old enough and is $295.00. All of our dogs are up to date on shots, heart worm tested and any medical issue are treated. Every dog that is going to a new home must be spayed or neutered before they leave Rescue Ranch.

More about this rescue

Rescue Ranch is a small no kill shelter. We have kennels for 22 dogs. We primarily take in dogs from city and county shelters in Siskiyou County before the dogs are out of time due to space limitations. We also make 3-4 trips a year to county shelters in central California to save smaller dogs that can overwhelm shelter resources in those counties. We started about 18 years ago with 40 acres far outside Yreka and were able to help many dogs in the county due to the efforts of the founders and many volunteers. In August of 2009 our new facility opened. We are now about 2 miles outside of town on 10 acres. We have been steadily growing through the efforts of the committed staff, volunteers, and volunteer board members. In 2012 we had 80 adoptions, 2013 we had 105 adoptions and in 2014 we had 167 adoptions. This year in 2020, we are projecting to place over 500 dogs into happy homes! We operate solely on the generous donations from the public and our wonderful volunteers. We have added boarding to our facility and all proceeds from the boarding fees are used to help with our expenses so we can help more dogs find their forever homes.
Our mission is to Rescue-Nurture-Rehome dogs into loving and safe forever homes---We do it for the dogs!
