Our Story
LHR opened its doors in 2009 and has since rescued and adopted out over 1,000 dogs and counting. We take in all breeds and ages and help turn them into wonderful family pets that anyone would be proud to call one of their family.
If you can't adopt try fostering. We are currently in need of other foster families for when are dogs come in. Typically, they are with you anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks. In that time, you can teach your temporary companion how to love and trust a person and be the best doggie he/she can be! The rescue will supply all the dogs needs.
What's that? You say you can't have dogs where you live but would still like to help out. No Fears! You can always come up to the rescue and sit and play with the dogs. Or, you could teach them basic commands, proper doggie manners or even teach them to walk nice on a leash. The options are limitless. Any love and compassion you can show these boys and girls will last them a lifetime.
Would you like to help in other ways? The rescue is always open to monetary donations or if you'd like, you can pick a specific dog to sponsor until he or she gets adopted. We can give you a weekly update on how he/she is doing, photos included!
If you prefer, you can donate supplies too! Leashes and harnesses are always in high demand as well as tasty dog treats! So are small area rugs or pillows for our furry friends to sleep on. Whatever it is, know the dogs will love it and be FURever grateful.

Well I'm glad you asked. In order to adopt, after checking out our wonderful dogs, First you need to go online to our petfinder account and fill out an application. Please list 3 personal references and a vet reference. Then expect a call from our adoption coordinator. She will talk to you extensively to make sure you are the right person for the job. When she approves you, come on up to the rescue and meet our dogs. Just know that the one you saw online might not like you and another does. They know what they want.
Adoption fees is $300-$400.00 . All of our furbabies are fully vetted for their age and fixed. They get a clean bill of health before leaving the rescue.
