Birmingham Dog Rescue, Inc.
Our Mission
Birmingham Dog Rescue. BDR is a certified 501(c)(3) non-profit whose mission focuses exclusively on rescuing dogs in need. These dogs are typically in shelters. Many are hours or days away from being killed for space and not because of any fault of their own.
Adoption Policy
We ask that they please complete our online adoption application. If it looks like it could be a fit for one of our dogs, we will call them to do a phone screen. If they pass the phone screen we do a meet n greet with the dog and we do either a home visit or a face time call so we can see where the dog would be living. We call references if necessary. We do a second meet n greet if necessary. For some dogs, we have a dog trainer involved who meets with them before and after adoption to ensure a smooth transition and to give the adopter tips on working with the dog. Each adoption scenario might be slightly different depending on the dog and family's needs.
