Mission
To rescue dogs of all breeds and care for them until they find loving homes.
Vision
A future where no pet is killed for lack of shelter space or inability to address a treatable medical condition. As long as they have quality of life, our rare "unadoptables" live out their lives at the Rescue Ranch Sanctuary.
Who Are We?
