Katie's Roadside Rescue is a no kill 501c3 non-profit organization with the mission of rescuing dogs left to fend for themselves. If they cannot be caught, at a minimum food and water is left for them. KRR currently does not accept owner surrenders nor do we pull from kill shelters. There seems to be plenty on the side of the road at this time. Donations and volunteers are the heart and core of KRR and we could not function without the generous help from others.
The first step in the adoption process is to fill out the application under Forms/Applications at the top under Website Features. Processing applications takes a lot of time so please only apply if you are serious and willing to wait approximately a week to 10 days. All volunteers work full time jobs as well. Once the application is processed a home visit will be conducted (locally) to ensure a safe home for the dog. Meet and greets will be scheduled either during the home visit or at another time so the dog and the adopter can select each other. This process is really pretty simple and easy. When the match is made a contract is signed and the adoption fee of $170 is collected. The contract basically states the dog will be cared for, receive routine medical care, stay on monthly heart worm prevention, and agree if for any reason you are unable to keep the dog, the dog comes back to KRR. KRR allows a 2 week trial period to ensure a good match.
