Out West Pet Rescue
Our Featured Pet...
We are open Tuesday thru Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Hello, I am Ivan. I was found living at a house where I was not getting fed. Animal control picked me up and asked the rescue for help. I was so skinny when I came in you could see all of my vertebre and had no muscle tone. When I walked I couldn't even hold my back side up for even small walks. I have now put on some weight, gained a great amount of muscle tone and am continuing to improve. I am now taking 45 minute walks every night and can keep up with other pups half my age. I am a very kind and loving guy, who just needs a family to love. Because of the lack of propper food for so long, it is hard to determine my age. It has also accelerated the pain from hip dysplasia and I will now most likely have to be on medication (joint suppliment) for the remainder of my life. I would love to be able to sit by the fire and take walks with you. I have a lot of love to give to someone who is willing to give an old guy a chance.If you would please be my new forever family please email or call 509-832-3060. My adoption donation is $75.00.
Since our rescue started in August of 2005 , we have adopted out over 3,700 dogs to new and happy homes. WOW!! Our main problem is people in our area do not spay or neuter their animals. We have a lot of problems with families that get a puppy and then when they are about 1 year of age they want to get rid of it. Both of the humane societies in our area are too full so, now they are sending animals to us. We are extremely pleased to see that people are opening there hearts to our wonderful rescue. If you are interested in seeing our rescued pets, please visit our happy tails site to see how these dogs have been given a second chance. We are always looking for families who would like to help us foster these kids until they find their new homes. We are always getting feedback and pictures of our adopted pets with their new families which is shared with the fosters.
Other news: Since our rescue has started in August of 2005, we have had a huge response from the surrounding areas about abandoned pets. Unfortuately we are becoming overwhelmed with this response. We are in extreme need for foster families. A foster family is a family willing to take on a dog and nurture it, whether that may be potty train, leash train, or socialize the animal. This takes a lot of time out of the foster family's schedule, but in return they get the opportunity to work with many types of dogs and watch them go to wonderful, loving families where they will be taken care of. Every foster family is continually updated with pictures, emails, and cards telling them about the dog's progress with its new family. Being a foster family can be an extremely fulfilling experience. None of our animals are kept in a shelter or kennels. They are all in foster homes where they learn their manners and become one of the family members. If you are interested in becoming a foster family, please contact Outwest Pet Rescue at 509-832-3060 or email us.
We are also in extreme need of dog food. We have been helping our community out by finding all these dogs new homes and it would be nice for our community to help us.
Foster homes are desperately needed throughout our community and the nation. Fostering a homeless animal brings such joy to ones life. Rescued animals definitely show their gratitude and it really warms the heart having a foster animal in your home. If you would like to learn more about what fostering entails, please contact us either by phone or e-mail. We would love to share some of our heart warming experiences.

Adopting a friend
Please email or call us for an adoption application. We are a small group of dedicated volunteers that saw a need for an animal rescue in the lower valley. We believe that the right to own a pet should not cost a fortune. Right now, we have 5 foster homes that take care of all of our pets. Our adoption fee's range from $125.00 to $200.00. The cost depends upon on the amount of time the dog has been with a foster family and the amount of money put into the dog. These fee's barely cover the cost of each pets vet bills, food, and shots. SO, we are happy to accept donations to help support our rescue. We are a 501 (C3) tax exempt rescue!!!! It took a while but it is well worth it. So, if you know of anyone or any business that would like to donate food beds or of course some cash, please contact us. It is a great way to get a tax right off and help some of our forever friends get a forever home! Our contact number is 509-832-3060 or e-mail outwestpetrescue@yahoo.com. Thank you for any kind of donations. All are very much appreciated!
