Who We Are
We are a small "grass roots" group dedicated to saving strays, abandoned, and abused animals. We also "pull" animals from several local shelters, mostly animals that have hours left before euthanasia. Most of those animals pulled from the shelters are requests from the shelter directors and coordinators. WE DO NOT take any owner surrendered animals as it is our philosophy that since there are plenty of other rescue groups that will take those animals, we will help those who need us most.

Adopting a friend
All potential adopters are interviewed prior to being allowed to adopt. All adopters must sign a contract stating that they will care for the animals, provide regular vet care, etc.
The adoption fee for most dogs and puppies is $100-$150. This amount applies to local southern adoptions only, any dog or puppy being adopted and going to the northeast have different fees due to the extra vetting that is included as well as the transport cost and the required health certificate.
All pets adopted from our rescue are spay or neutered prior to adoption, NO EXCEPTIONS
The adoption fee for cats and kittens is $30-$60. The same terms apply for deposits and low cost certificates as mentioned in the paragraph above.
Come Visit Us!
All our animals live in foster homes, so there is no one place on a regular basis to see all the adoptable pets. Please call 205-759-1100 if you see an animal that you are interested in. We can make appointments most evenings and all weekends to introduce you to all our babies waiting for their forever homes. Please watch our event calendar as we participate in many "adopt-a-thons", in Birmingham, Tuscaloosa and surrounding areas.
Our dogs love to sleep on Kuranda Dog beds, but we don't have enough for everyone.
If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for a another dog to sleep in comfort, please donate a Kuranda dog bed.
