Catskill Canine Rescue

Athens, NY

Our Mission

At Catskill Canine Rescue, Inc. we are dedicated to rescuing dogs that have been left homeless for whatever reason. We are dedicated to helping dogs in public shelters, where they are at high risk of euthanasia due to pet overpopulation. This may include dogs that have been given up by their owners because of difficult circumstances, as well as those in danger of abuse or neglect. Working with local rescue groups, shelters and veterinarian clinics, our goal is to provide a safe haven for neglected, abandoned, or abused dogs, while also promoting compassionate and humane treatment for all animals.

Adoption Policy

Our adoption process begins with a thorough review of both professional and personal references. This is followed by an in-depth interview with the potential adopters. Subsequently, we conduct a comprehensive home visit to assess the suitability of their living environment. If the potential adopters have existing dogs, we arrange a meet-and-greet session between their dog and our dog to ensure compatibility. Upon successful completion of all these steps, the potential adopters may proceed with the adoption of one of our dogs.
