Douglas County Canine Rescue

Note- the only things that should matter with a canine rescue are: -do they love the animals and do their best to give them a good home? -Are those working for/volunteering with the organization generally pleasant to deal with? -Do they operate with integrity and do what they say they are going to do?

I had an easy time adopting my Doberman from here once they responded. It took them a few weeks to respond. It's great to save dogs and find loving families for them. But the owner is really not a considerate person. I had to give back my dog because I couldn't afford the medical expenses he needed. It crushed me and I still miss him. But the owner refuses to respond to me when I ask how he's doing. How cold and bitter is her heart to not respond and let me know? I've sent 3 messages to her and no response. It's so sad.

My husband and I have adopted from Douglas County Canine Rescue twice. We adopted huskies which are known to be a difficult breed. The rescue was very selective and cautious about who the huskies were adopted to, and I really appreciate that given how much work huskies can be. Their adoption process is strict and thorough which can put some people off, but it just shows they’re really in it for the animals.They seem to be a great organization who does their best to place and save as many dogs as they can.
