Better World Rescue

Asuma needs a new foster!

Asuma is a sweet, affectionate boy whose favorite place in the world is right next to his people. If you sit down, don't be surprised when he comes over to gently rest his head in your lap and ask for some belly rubs, one of his favorite things! This handsome guy thrives on companionship and loves being part of whatever you're doing. While he doesn't enjoy being left alone, he's making great progress and is getting much better about settling down without excessive whining. Asuma has moderate energy and benefits from daily walks and occasional play sessions.

Asuma has done well living three other dogs and may enjoy living with another canine companion, provided introductions are slow and thoughtful. He has not yet met children, but he may do well with them. However, due to his high prey drive, Asuma cannot live in a home with cats.

If you're interested in fostering Asuma please fill out an app and a volunteer will reach out.

MEET JOHNNY DEEP! ✨

Johnny Depp is a 4 month old male domestic short hair that is looking for his forever home.

Johnny is an adorable little guy with a heart full of love. He may be a little shy at first, but once he feels safe and has the chance to earn your trust, his sweet personality truly shines. He’s the kind of kitty who just needs a little patience and a loving person willing to show him that he’s safe.

Once Johnny is comfortable, he loves to play with his favorite toys, enjoy some fun zoomies around the house, and even relax while watching TV. He especially enjoys spending time with his feline friends and showing off his playful side. Johnny is a gentle soul who is still learning that people can be kind and trustworthy. With a little time, love, and reassurance, he will reward you with affection, companionship, and plenty of adorable moments. If you’re looking for a sweet kitty who just needs someone to believe in him, Johnny Depp may be the perfect match. Johnny does great around kids and does fine around mellow dogs. He is shy around new cats but opens up one he has time to settle.

Johnny is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and chipped. If you're interested in meeting Johnny Depp please fill out an application and a volunteer will reach out within one business day.

OUR INTAKE IS CLOSED!

We have not one but two dogs in boarding who were suddenly returned to us with little notice to prepare for their return.

Dex is a 4 year old pittie who is cat friendly and needs an experienced foster or adopter. He loves walks, adventures, and play!

Clydesdale is a 1 year old pittie that is cat, kid, and dog friendly. He loves giving kisses and is a giant marshmallow with legs.

If you can open your home to one of these dogs they would be forever grateful. If you're interested please fill out an foster application below and someone will reach out.

Once again we cannot accept any other animals until both Dex and Clyde are out of boarding which means we can't pull more dogs or cats off the shelters euthanasia list.

🎉 ADOPTION SPOTLIGHT 🎉

We have a very special adoption that accidentally slipped through the cracks, and we couldn't let this handsome boy miss out on the celebration he deserves! 💚 We were so excited that Fillmore found his forever home earlier in the week that we celebrated right away and somehow forgot to make his official adoption post. Better late than never!

🫎 Fillmore, now lovingly named Moose, has found his perfect forever home! Just look at those sweet kisses he's giving his new mom—it was truly love at first sight! ❤️ We couldn't be happier knowing he's starting this exciting new chapter filled with love, adventures, and a lifetime of wonderful memories.

Every adoption reminds us why we do what we do, but our mission isn't over until every animal has a safe, loving home to call their own.

🐾💙 Meet Flynn – A Sweet Boy Ready to Find His Confidence! 💙🐾

Flynn is a playful, gentle boy who's still learning to come out of his shell. New people and new experiences can make him a little nervous at first, but he's truly a sweetheart who's just looking for someone to help him learn that the world isn't so scary. In his kennel, Flynn can be quite the talker, happily trying to catch the attention of anyone walking by. He's eager to get outside, and with a little baby talk and gentle
encouragement, he's more than happy to head out on an adventure. Flynn walks fairly well on leash but could use a little practice to perfect his skills.
Once he's out, Flynn's curious side really starts to shine. He loves sniffing around and exploring everything his surroundings have to offer. He may be a little hesitant to seek out affection right away, but bring out a toy and you'll see his playful personality come alive! Flynn loves chasing toys, throwing his paws in the air, and pouncing on them with pure excitement. He may not know exactly what to do once he's caught them, but he sure has fun getting there!

Flynn is a sweet boy who's just waiting for the right family to give him the patience, love, and encouragement he needs to build his confidence. With a little time and a lot of kindness, there's no doubt this handsome boy will blossom into an amazing companion. ❤️🐶

Dog to Dog: Flynn has participated in doggy playgroups with both male and female dogs, and did best with easy going males and females. He can get a bit humpy but takes corrections well.
