The rescue is run by our family.
Cathy, her husband and 2 daughters love each and every one of the animals that they come in contact with and work to assure there is a smooth transition from their foster home to your "furever" home.
Most of the dogs that you will see offered for adoption come from the extremely overcrowded animal shelters, rescue, Humane Societies, and Rescue leagues in the south. Some may be owner surrenders from right here in Massachusetts. Most of the dogs we foster and adopt would be euthanized if we had not stepped in.

All of our Foster Homes are located within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We currently have several foster homes in Whitinsville. We also have foster homes in Northbridge, Douglas, Gardener, Wellsley, Grafton, Worcester, Charlton, Webster, Marlboro, Uxbridge and Pembroke.
Interested in fostering? We'd love to have you!
We welcome adopters from any state!
Canadian adopters are welcome, as well. Although, there may be more stringent guidelines to follow in getting your future family member over the border and into your Province.
Transportation, to your home, can be arranged via a USDA licensed and approved transport company. Extra fees will apply.
Additional adoption info
Each prospective adopter will need to fill out an adoption application. This must be done prior to setting up an appointment to meet the "new family member". Adoption fees vary depending on the animal that is being rescued. We must take into account transportation fees, vetting, isolation and interstate health certificates. Fees range from a free will donation to $400.
