Dog Pack Rescue Inc. is a non-profit, no-kill dog shelter, sanctuary and animal welfare organization dedicated to the rescue of adoptable companion dogs in order to prevent needless euthanasia of these healthy animals. We rescue dogs from high kill animal control facilities in the Northwest Georgia area. Dog Pack Rescue is a place of happiness, joy and love. Everything we do is in the best interest of the dogs. There are no cages. The dogs have big fields of grass in which to run and climate controlled shelters to sleep in. We believe that dogs, as living creatures, are entitled to a quality life with respect and compassion. Inasmuch as humans are responsible for having domesticated pets, we have a moral and ethical obligation to care for the dogs, especially those we have domesticated who are abandoned, unwanted, or otherwise in need. We want to instill in our community an awareness of all the dogs whose lives we share, to promote and encourage responsible dog ownership and to stress the importance of spaying/neutering of all companion dogs.
We are Licensed by the Georgia Department of Agriculture, a 501c3 Charitable Organization (your donations are tax deductible), and directed by a Board of Directors composed of business professionals and a veterinarian.
