Pocono Animal Rescue Inc. was founded in September of 2000,. The organization was created out of a need in the Pocono Mountains of Monroe County for an organization to work on the behalf of large domestic animals.

The roots for the Pocono Animal Rescue Inc. are found in the organization, Helping Hands for Hungry Horses. In July of 2000, four severly neglected horses were found in Canadensis, Pennsylvania. With the cooperation of local police, the animals were rescued by a group of concerned horse owners and horse lovers. This same group of horse owners and lovers organized Helping Hands for Hungry Horses to collect donations for the care of the horses. Thanks to generous contributions from the public, the horses received the expert attention they needed and have made a full recovery.

Many people in the Pocono Mountain region believed that the area needed a more permanent organization to work on behalf of large domestic animals. With that mission in mind, the organizers of Helping Hands for Hungry Horses founded the Pocono Animal Rescue, Inc.
