Rainbow Animal Rescue is a no-kill rescue based in North Eastern North Carolina. We are a non profit, 501(c)(3) rescue organization, EIN 20-0241166. We started our rescue in an effort to help the many unwanted, abandoned and mistreated animals in North Carolina and the surrounding areas. We foster pets in our homes until we can find loving 'forever' homes for them. Rainbow Rescue has been online since November 2nd 2003.
We do NOT do on the spot adoptions. Applications must be submitted and vetting/personal references must be checked before an adoption is completed. You will not be able to adopt a puppy or dog on the day of your visit if you do not have a verified application. Note: An incomplete form may delay adoption or even result in someone with a completed form adopting the dog you want. Make sure your Vet has permission to pass on your information to Rainbow Animal Rescue. If your vet refuses to talk to us this will delay your application and may result in the dog you want being adopted by another applicant.
