Rescue Road

Rescue Road We are a 501(c)3 located in Central Arkansas. We need short term fosters only - no local adoptions! Who is Rescue Road? Why does Rescue Road only send dogs North?

Our mission is to redirect happy, healthy, adoptable dogs in high-kill shelters into other networks to find their forever families. Through our virtual team of volunteers and foster families in Arkansas, we send dogs North. The American Veterinary Medical Association recently published its U.S. Pet Ownership & Demographics Sourcebook. Arkansas ranks #1 in dog ownership (http://www.arkansasbusiness

.com/article/90274/gone-to-the-dogs). Sounds good on the surface, but what does it really mean? Our shelters are full. Dogs are put down EVERY DAY throughout the state because there are too many dogs and not enough homes. Guess which states ranked the lowest? That's right, Northern states! This creates a perfect partnership since this is where our partner rescues reside. There are plenty of families just waiting to adopt dogs sent through our program. So, can I adopt one of your dogs? No. Once a dog is selected by our rescue partner in the North, the commitment is made for us to deliver that happy, healthy animal to them. They start networking and coordinating the minute we have pulled them. Families who are already approved adopters may be expecting that particular dog. Plus, up North they have so many more families than available dogs. There are just too many dogs and not enough homes down here. It’s best to think of it as once a dog is pulled, it is safe and is just waiting for its turn to catch a ride home. The ones left behind in the shelter, however, are not. That’s why fostering is so important. By pulling one dog, this frees up kennel space. This buys us a little more time to find a foster for the next dog. How can I help? Foster. We are always looking for foster families near our Central and Delta region partner shelters. The commitment is typically 2-6 weeks. We cover all vetting expenses. You just provide food, shelter, and love. Send us a message on Facebook at www.facebook.com/rescueroad to get started. Volunteer. Various opportunities are available. Donate.
