REACH Rescue Inc.
Our Mission
Reach Rescue is dedicated to rescuing dogs and cats that are stray, abandoned, relinquished, abused, or neglected, ensuring every animal in our care finds a stable, healthy, and happy life. We believe in bringing animals and their people together through compassionate rescue and public education.
Who We Are
Formerly known as Whiskers and Wags, Reach Rescue has been a 100% volunteer-run, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization since 2011. Our team of passionate volunteers works tirelessly to fulfill our mission, and we are proud to have rescued over 6,500 dogs by placing them into our network of trusted, loving foster families.
How We Help
As an entirely foster-based rescue, we believe that home environments provide the best care, allowing our rescues to socialize, overcome their pasts, and thrive while waiting for their forever families. We supplement this care with our Upscale Resale Shop, where all proceeds directly fund the veterinary and daily needs of our animals until they find their perfect match.
Your Partner in Adoption
We are deeply committed to finding the best possible match for both our pets and your family. Our team takes the time to understand each animal's unique temperament and needs, ensuring that your adoption is the beginning of a lifelong, joyful partnership. We are here to guide you through every step of the process, from your first application to your new best friend's transition into your home.
