Salfid Rescue
Our Mission
Salfid Rescue's volunteers have worked together to save dogs and puppies from overpopulated shelters. Many of our dogs and puppies come from Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Franklin County Humane Society, and the Humane Society of Amherst County; all located in Virginia. We have also saved dogs from shelters in Philadelphia, Alabama, West Virginia, Tennessee, and many more. We have been working with these shelters for years and have established a wonderful relationship with them. We save approximately 200-300 dogs each year from these shelters. We are committed to saving all dogs; we do not discriminate against breed or age of the dogs we take in.
Once the dogs come up to us they go to their fosters for a 14 day isolation period, we have them seen at our veterinary facility for needed wellness exams, vaccinations, preventative care, alterations for dogs over 6 months old, and much more. From there the dogs move to a foster home, where a family helps them adapt to life in a home. They work with them on house-breaking, crate-training, walking on a leash, manners, and much more. Most importantly, fosters give them love until their forever family comes along!
Salfid Rescue Inc. is a privately run rescue. We are not funded by the state or city and we run solely on donations from the community.
