About

H.A.N.D.D.S. to the Rescue (Helping Abused, Neglected, Disabled, Displaced Souls) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We are a volunteer-based rescue for dogs that are hard to place or require extra care. We currently do not take in cats. We do not have a shelter. All of our dogs are placed in experienced foster homes where they receive love and care until they find that special home to call their own. Prior to adoption, all dogs receive necessary medical treatment and vaccines. They are heartworm tested and placed on preventative medicine, de-wormed, and treated for fleas. All dogs are also spayed or neutered before adoption.

Adoption process

All adoptions require an application and brief interview so we can help you choose a pet that would fit your lifestyle. Renters need a landlord letter stating any breed or size restrictions. Puppies are available for adoption the day your application is approved. We understand that adult dogs come with some special quirks and may not be right for every family. All adult dogs come with a ONE WEEK TRIAL. After the trial, when you know this is the dog for you, make an appointment to finalize your adoption!
