"Dog are not our whole lives, but they make our lives whole."
--Roger Caras
Crossroads Animal Rescue was born out of the heartfelt desire of a small group of likeminded individuals to start a new organization in the Mecklenburg and Union county areas, dedicated to rescuing dogs in desperate circumstances. Our primary method of rescue is to pull dogs out of an animal shelter environment and place them into a loving foster home where their road to recovery and a forever home will begin.
We strive to enlist excellent foster homes and parents that will shelter, nurture and begin training the dogs that are in their care. It is our goal for the dog to be in the best physical and emotional state possible when it leaves its foster home and enters its forever home.
It is with the utmost care and consideration that we thoroughly screen our applicants in order to match each dog that enters Crossroads Animal Rescue with its ideal family so that it can truly become a lifelong companion pet once it is in its new home.
The funds that are needed to carry out such a large task are raised through adoption donations, public donations and community fundraisers. All donations are tax deductible. All of our board members and foster parents are volunteers and receive no remuneration for their work.
Besides offering top notch rescued dogs to families looking for a new companion, it is also our goal to help the surrounding community better understand how to lower the number of dogs euthanised in Mecklenburg and Union Counties. Only through educating the community about the importance of having their pets spayed or neutered, promoting local Spay/Neuter programs and encouraging families to properly love and care for their companion animals will we see a difference in our counties and in our state.
It is with committed hearts and hands that all of the members of Crossroads Animal Rescue will endeavor to make a difference in the Mecklenburg and Union County areas of NC, by saving one dog at a time.
"Saving one dog will not change the world, but you will change the world for that one dog."
