We are dedicated to rescuing dogs from life threatening situations. Our dogs were in danger of being euthanized in kill shelters before being brought to our tranquil adoption sanctuary in Sonoma County. Our dogs are tucked into their kennels at night with toys and blankets and spend their days outside, enjoying freedom, fresh air and each other’s company. We have various play yards and the dogs learn to socialize in different playgroups on a daily basis. This unique environment is conducive to teaching our dogs appropriate house manners and basic obedience. All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, brought current on vaccinations and microchipped. They receive comprehensive health examinations prior to being placed in responsible and loving homes. Our dedicated staff is trained to find each of our dogs, and hopefully you, a perfect match. At Big Dog Rescue, we believe love really can make a difference in the life of a dog, who in turn will offer you unconditional love and acceptance as a playmate, jogging partner, or couch co-potato.We also sponsor spay and neuter clinics internationally and help local dogs stay in their homes when their guardians have fallen on hard times.
