Blackberry Point Haven

Blackberry Point Haven We are a 501(c)(3) organization, licensed as DS-537371. Proud to do rescue our way, always within legal parameters. We are based in Wisconsin.

With over 60 years of combined experience in veterinary medicine and competition in the horse and canine arenas, we bring a deep understanding and passion to animal care. We frequently receive calls from shelters and individuals in Wisconsin and Illinois who, after breeding their pets, realize they are unable to care for the resulting litters. When we take in these puppies, we require owners to sp

ay and neuter the parents as a condition of surrender, and we cover the costs to ensure the breeding cycle ends. This is our commitment to responsible rescue and population control. By intervening before puppies end up in shelters, we help protect them from exposure to illnesses like parvo and other diseases common in high-volume environments. However, given our small size and limited resources, we must be selective about the cases we take on. Even so, when we cannot bring puppies into our care, we often direct families to resources and cover spay/neuter costs to make an impact beyond our walls. We recognize that our adoption fees are sometimes higher than others, but this is intentional. These fees discourage resale and ensure adopters are committed to the process. We follow conversation-based adoptions as recommended by the National No Kill Advocacy Guidelines, prioritizing thoughtful matches between pets and families. While some may have differing views, we do this because the costs of rescue often exceed adoption fees, keeping us operating at a deficit. In addition to dogs, we also foster horses, which comes with substantial expenses of its own. Recently, we applied for our 501(c)(3) status (we have an EIN) and are working to finalize our license. These are crucial steps in strengthening our ability to help animals responsibly. While our preference was to stay off social media, circumstances have made it necessary to share our story more broadly. It’s worth noting that many rescues operate without licenses, which can be verified by checking your state’s licensed dog sellers list online. While a 501(c)(3) is not mandatory, a license is required to place more than 25 dogs annually in states like Wisconsin. Rescue work is as complex as it is rewarding. The animal welfare community is vast, and everyone has their own approach. Our focus is on doing what works best for us and the animals we care for. We encourage you to explore, learn, and choose what aligns with your values—no judgment here. There are many ways to help—this is ours. We may each do things differently, but together, we all play a role in making a difference.

He has been adopted!
🐾 Sweet Daschund Needs a Loving Home!

Some of our rescue friends recently brought back a 6-year-old Daschund from Arizona who needs a forever home. He was a loyal companion to an older gentleman who sadly passed away. This sweet boy is incredibly loving and would make a wonderful companion dog.

Though he gets along well with their dogs, it’s clear he needs a place where he can truly shine. They would love to keep him, but their house is already full!

We’re looking for a responsible and loving owner who can give him the attention and care he deserves. Please reach out if you or someone you know would be a great fit. We love him dearly and want the very best for him!

He is up to date on all vet work!

❤️ Help us find this sweet boy his forever home! ❤️

🚨 Important Notice 🚨

It has come to our attention that a disgruntled ex-volunteer is sending out false and misleading text messages to the owners of puppies that have already been adopted from Blackberry Point Haven. This is concerning spaying / nuetering and your contract.

If you receive any unusual or concerning text messages FROM number 1 (847) 525-8591 Pamela, please do not engage with the sender. Instead, forward the messages to [email protected] so we can address the situation appropriately.

We are actively pursuing legal action to resolve this matter.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding. We remain committed to the well-being of our animals and the families who adopt them.

🐾 Rescue Mission Complete! 🐾

After 28 hours on the road, BlackBerry Point Haven is back in Wisconsin—this time with two very special passengers! We were able to rescue a beautiful Doberman and a sweet Blue Heeler from a kill shelter in Oklahoma, and both pups are now safe and happy with their new families!

We couldn’t have done this without the incredible help of our friend Jim McCain, who was by our side every step of the way, and the amazing staff at Great Plains Veterinary Service in Hinton, OK, who made sure these pups were healthy and ready for their new lives.

A huge THANK YOU to Summer at End of the Leash for donating so many wonderful toys, treats, and food, as well as gathering donations to support our rescue partners across the U.S. Your generosity makes a difference!

And of course, congratulations to Rakesh for adopting the gorgeous Heeler boy and Misa for giving the sweet Dobie girl her forever home! We can’t wait to hear updates on their new adventures in Wisconsin.

Here’s a picture of our friends in Oklahoma after we finished loading the truck with donations. A special shoutout to Jim, who is a talented photographer and gifted us a beautiful picture to hang on our wall!

This is what rescue is all about—saving lives and bringing joy to families. Thank you to everyone who made this possible! ❤️🐶🐾

🚨 This Handsome Boy is Looking for His Forever Home! 🚨

This big, beautiful boy is back on the market! 💙 At just 2 years old, he’s neutered, up to date on vet care, and ready to find his perfect match.

He thought he had found forever, but he struggles with sharing toys with his dog siblings. Because of this, he’s looking for a home with a patient owner willing to work with him on his manners.

Originally dumped in Oklahoma, he was rescued by an amazing man who helps strays. Despite his rough start, he’s sweet, loving, and adores people—but he does have a strong urge to chase cars, so he’ll need someone who can help guide him.

If you think you could be the right home for this special boy, please reach out! Let’s find him the loving family he deserves. ❤️🏡
