Breed Rescue

Main Line Animal Rescue specializes in the rescue and placement of abused, unwanted and abandoned companion animals. We never discriminate on the basis of health, age or breed. By involving and educating the community, Main Line Animal Rescue works to raise the public’s awareness of the plight of homeless animals as well as realizing the benefits of adopting an animal in need. Our animals are examined, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and receive any and all medical treatment before they are placed in carefully screened homes.

Gayle, rescued from Puppy Mill

Main Line Animal Rescue

Chester Springs, PA

Puppy Mills

“Gayle” the Cocker Spaniel “threw” nine puppies every time the farmer bred her.  But her days as a breeding dog were over the day we rescued her. The breeder told us that she had produced only three puppies in her last litter and he wouldn’t breed her again. Fearing that she might be destroyed, we convinced him to let us take her. “Gayle” was recently adopted by a very nice family and is now happy in her new home.

Chip - Adopt a Boxer Rescue

Chip has been living in the city for the past year and a half, but he has not adjusted to the hectic environment. Chip is sadly being returned to rescue to find a more suburban home, hopefully with a fenced yard where he can run and play.  His current family feels he would do much better in a low traffic home outside of the city lights!

Chip is great with other dogs, small and large.  He will soon be 5 years old and Chip is obedience trained.  If you live in the suburbs and are looking for an awesome dog, please consider him as part of your family. If you can provide a forever home for Chip, apply today!

Dexter & Duncan - Yorkie - Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue

The Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue Inc. was founded in 1997.

We are dedicated to finding the best possible homes for Yorkshire Terriers in our care, regardless of age, sight, hearing or other handicaps. Everyday we help local pounds and other types of shelters find Yorkies in need of our help in relocating homeless and abandoned pets.

We screen and visit every home with a pre adoptive interview, personal reference checks and in home follow up visits whenever possible after the adoption.

We spay and neuter prior to placing the animal in its new home. Our dogs are Heartwormed checked and current on all vaccines. We also microchip them to their new owners with a reference back to our Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue Inc.

We make every effort to ensure that our little dogs live in the loving environments that they so well deserve to their very last day on this earth. We are a non profit 501 c (3) charitable organization.
