About Us

Richardson Rescue, located in York, SC, is a non-profit animal adoption agency dedicated to preserving the sanctity of animal life. While trying to find a forever home for every pet that comes to us, we strive to give owners a better education on pet care, and prevent pet neglect/abuse.

We get no federal or state funding and are donation driven. This means that the only way we can care for the animals that come to us in need is with the help of people like yourself. Please make your donation today to help with all our homeless pets.

If you would like to donate funds for Vet bills etc click on our pay pal link below. We also need many different items such as: Dog houses, old blankets/sheets/towels, NEWSPAPERS, old small rugs, dog food, treats, toys, paper towels, laundry detergent, cleaners, large puppy pads, 55 gallon trash bags, heaters, office supplies and much more. Call us at 803-684-6865 or stop by if you would like to make a donation! WE NEED YOUR HELP TO SAVE THESE PETS.

Adoptable Pets
Meet Dixie. What a wonderful family member she will be. She is happy and has a sweet temperament.. Please ask about her.


Lucky has been here at Richardson Rescue for over a year now. He came as a puppy and has grown up with us. He is a loving and sweet boy. We would love to place him in a loving home because he deserves one.


This sweetheart is Miracle. She was found on the side of the road after being hit by a car. Her front leg had to be amputated due to serious injury. Her pelvis was crushed and she had a head injury. She has healed well and is now waiting on a forever home. Check out her profile and video. She is a sweet, sweet girl that loves everyone.

Don't get a dog if...

You can not afford to take him to a vet when he gets sick or injured. You can not afford dog food, a dog house, heartworm and flea prevention. You can not afford annual rabies and parvo vaccinations. You can not afford to spay or neuter him. You do not have a stable living situation which allows dogs. You do not have a stable job or income. You don't plan to keep him inside and leash walk him or you don't have a secure fenced area. You don't plan to socialize him to people and other pets and obedience train him. You plan to leave him outside without much attention. Dogs who are left neglected outside become unhappy and cause barking problems or worse. You are getting the dog just for your kids. You will be the one responsible for his care, so don't get a dog just because your son wants one. You aren't committed to caring for him for his entire 10-15 year lifespan.
