Flat Coated Retriever for Rescue

FCRSA does not personally "rescue" all the dogs that are passed on to its organization. [...]

The Safe Haven of a Great Pyrenees Rescue

The majority of Great Pyrenees rescues are non profit organizations that take in lost or displaced Pyrs. In situations where an owner is not able to keep their Pyr, they can bring their dog to a rescue with the peace of mind that he or she will not be destroyed. Pyrs that are lost or end up in animal shelters are also taken in by such rescues. These organizations ensure that the next person who takes in one of their dogs meets the criteria of a responsible Great Pyrenees owner. This can mean not only filling out an application but having one's home inspected as well. This ensures the dog will have a good environment and will not be put through the trauma of another displacement. No matter what their background or where they come from, a rescue ensures that each dog is physically, mentally and emotionally fit for adoption. While one Pyr may have a good history and all its shots, this may not necessarily be the case for another. [...]
