Who we are
Pound Puppy Rescue is a 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in 2001. We rescue approximately 200 puppies every year. We are a completely volunteer run organization whose purpose is to keep puppies out of overcrowded shelters where they are at risk for disease and euthanasia. Puppies are fostered in volunteer foster homes where we can keep the puppies healthy, socialized, and in their litter until they are old enough to be placed in permanent, loving homes. All the puppies we rescue come to us looking for love and a "forever" home. Our hope is that all puppies placed through our organization will never experience being homeless or unloved again.
Thank you for considering adopting a rescue puppy!

Bonnie's Getting New Hips!
  
Thanks to the generous donations Bonnie's family now has the funds needed to get Bonnie her 2 hip surgeries! A note from her mom & family:
"I was speechless. This whole experience has renewed my faith in humanity and I am so relieved this dog can be given a
pain free life in the near future because of the kindness of these amazing donors. I am so relieved and I know we will forever be in your debt.
YEAH for Bonnie Biscuits! Hopefully I’ll make her a therapy dog or train her to do some other neat stuff since agility is out of the question.
We look forward to a long and happy life with our sweet girl. Thanks for saving her twice. --Bonnie's Mom & Family"
