Breed RescuesBreed RescuesA popular type of rescue organization is a breed rescue. These rescues are just as they sound, breed specific. Breed rescues generally charge more than double what you might expect to pay at a municipal or nonprofit shelter. There are several reasons for this, one being that every dog is spayed or neutered, temperament tested with a variety of people, men, women, of all ages, medically treated, and most receive training and are socialized with other dogs by being fostered in a home environment. This allows everyone to adopt a pure bred dog, while saving some money and more importantly saving a life.

Breed rescues are also known for their strict adoption policies, often requiring several home visits, references, and a lengthy adop0tion application. Many breed rescues feel that particular breeds fare best in certain environments, for instance if you live in a small one bedroom studio apartment, a Great Dane, or St Bernard is probably not the right breed for you.
