The little rescue with a big heart
Our primary mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and find loving, permanent homes for homeless dogs, specifically dogs in shelters at-risk of euthanasia and dogs whose owners can no longer care for them. We believe in compassionate rescue when the dog is enduring inhumane living conditions or likely to be deemed less adoptable due to age, health, emotional state, or breed. We ensure that all the dogs we take into our rescue, regardless of individual needs, are cared for with love and compassion for the duration of their lives.

❤️🩹 From forgotten to family. This #nationalrescuedogday we’re celebrating the transformations that happen when someone finally says, “You’re safe with me.” Help us rescue the ones still waiting and send off the ones who are ready to take flight. Meet Levi. He’s been in our care for nearly 1.5 years. A snuggly sweetie, Levi has thrived with us, but is ready to unpack his suitcase once and for all. If you want to meet a dog who has never met a person that didn’t get his tail wagging and wouldn’t mind the right doggie companion or two, he’s your guy. All Levi asks for in this world is a good treat, the occasional lap to lay his head down on, and a regular walk so he can read all his tree-mail. 📧 Give overlooked dogs like Levi chance: Adopt, foster, share, or donate today! #k9kismetlevi #supportanimalrescue #rescue #rescuedoglife #levi #healingjourney #bullysofinstagram #adoptdontshop #adoptabledog
Thank you amazing humans.
Love this guy!
Meet the newest K9 Kismet Amigos: The Ginger Snaps Squad 🐱🧡 For those who aren’t familiar, the K9 Kismet Amigos Program was created to support pet owners who need financial assistance with veterinary care. Here’s how it works: families pay what they can, and we cover the rest. No surrenders. No strings. Just support. A few weeks ago, we got a call about a kindhearted community member who had taken in a cat named Ginger, only to discover she was pregnant. Ginger’s new mom was doing her best, saving up to get the whole family fixed. She started with the only male kitten. But one sneaky escape and a few months later, four more kittens arrived. Ginger’s family needed help… and they needed it fast. We wanted the Ginger Snaps Squad to receive quality care with folks we trust, so we made appointments for them at The Little Lion Foundation Wellness Clinic. Exams, vaccines, spay & neuter surgeries, and more… for the whole family! Today, we’re happy to report that the whole family is thriving. Ginger will spend the rest of her days safe and loved with her adopter. The older kittens have adoptions pending. Two of the younger kittens went to their forever homes over the weekend. And the last two? Our friends at The Little Lion Foundation have graciously stepped in to help them find families. 🫶🏼 If you are interested in adopting a kitten please visit: www.littlelionfoundation.org We would love to continue saying "yes" to families like Ginger’s. But right now, our Amigos fund is running low. If this story touched your heart, we hope you will consider making a small tax-deductible donation to help us replenish funds needed to keep the program going.

Adopt
By providing a forever home for a dog in rescue, you're helping to free up a foster home, which allows us to help another dog in need. The dogs in our care are fully vaccinated, spayed or neutered (unless medically waived), microchipped, and receive regular wellness exams, preventative treatment, specialty care as needed. If you’re interested in meeting a K9 Kismet pack member, please fill out the adoption application to begin the process.
