About Pregnant Dog Rescue

Pregnant Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill rescue organization for unwanted pregnant dogs destined for euthanasia. Pregnant Dog Rescue has provided pounds and shelters a safe place to send their WGHS_PARADE10_pregnant dogs, newly whelped litters and orphan pups. Most of the pregnant dogs taken in were dumped at the pounds, which are not capable of caring for the mom and her newborn puppies. We are not breed-specific, nor do we pick-and-choose; as long as we have the space and funds, the dogs are saved!

Once in our care, the true rescue effort begins. We, along with our veterinarian, make an in-depth assessment of any medical conditions, which are treated at once. Pregnant moms are assisted with whelping (which most of the time is during the middle of the night). All too frequently the mom is emaciated and unable to provide milk for her babies; the puppies are then placed on round-the-clock bottle feeding.

Before becoming available for adoption, the mom will be spayed, dewormed, tested for heartworms, vaccinated, and started on heartworm & flea prevention. The puppies are also spayed/neutered, dewormed, vaccinated, and also started on flea prevention.
Pregnant Dog Rescue relies solely on adoption fees and donations. Veterinary fees and special-need costs are barely covered. We are always accepting donations and volunteers. We appreciate any (seemingly) little help and any time that our volunteers can spare.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to provide pounds and shelters a safe place to send their pregnant dogs, newly whelped litters and orphan pups. Our goal is to spay and neuter every pet before leaving Pregnant Dog Rescue, find them loving, permanent new homes and to educate the younger generation on proper pet care.

OUR HISTORY

Pregnant Dog Rescue was started in June 2010 by Rod & Jen Hale. The original intention of Pregnant Dog Rescue was to take in and rescue one pregnant dog at a time - but that was very short-lived. Due to the overwhelming need Pregnant Dog Rescue was suddenly caring for several mother dogs and their litters and turning away several on a daily basis due to a lack of space and funds. Pregnant Dog Rescue is run out of Rod & Jen's quiet loving home in Griffin, GA where they are currently caring for multiple litters of puppies.
