What we aim to solve
Canine Overpopulation is very prevalent in the Southern United States. Every year millions of adoptable dogs are euthanized after arriving in high kill shelters. All Breed Rescue works with several highly trained Rescues in South Carolina to identify highly adoptable dogs, pull them from the shelters, provide them the vetting they need and transport them to Vermont where they can be placed with their forever families. Sometimes these dogs need additional vetting to address Heartworm, kennel cough or injuries from car accidents. All Breed Rescue works with Southern and local veterinarians to get the dogs the care they need.

All Breed Rescue pulls dogs from high kill shelters in the South and NYC. We transport them to foster homes in the Northeast or to our Shelter in VT. We work with the community to get them adopted into their forever homes

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
As we aim for the future, we look to our community to aid us in saving homeless dogs of any breed, size, and age through basic training, socializing, networking, fostering, adopting, and sponsoring. It's with these actions we are able to place these abandoned dogs in caring fosters and loving homes here in the generous Northeast. A large part of our work not only saves dogs and finds them homes, but aids in helping our shelter partners in the south to become no-kill. We hope to continue our work in order to fight canine overpopulation and advocate for adoption.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
All Breed relies on communication and strategic teamwork to rescue, vet, and re-home highly adoptable dogs. Each rescue begins with transparent conversations with our rescue partners to pull a dog in need and plan their arrival to Vermont. Dogs are placed into fosters who are given constant access to our team in Vermont for support in planing. Dogs undergo basic and specific vetting dependent on their needs.
Communication through highly in-depth adoption counseling also ensures our dogs are successfully adopted and our return rate remains low. Adopters work with our counselors to find their best match and are enabled through adoption materials and meetings with our team to properly care for their new dog throughout its life.
Communication in the form of advocacy and outreach is another strategy we rely on to promote adoption and see a no-kill country. Our strong volunteer program works to promote All Breed's mission with events and fundraisers. Our team also visits school groups and other community organizations to speak about adoption and our dogs' stories.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
All Breed has a strong, dedicated team of staff, volunteers, adopters, and donors that want to see a better world for animals. Our staff are highly trained on dog behavior and health in order to translate this into adoptive homes and the community.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We want to share a few of our 2018 accomplishments. We’re very proud that we
